Today, finally got the reports back from the Dr., no cancer but will need from follow up surgery for one thing I have - all in all not bad could be allot worse!!!
I put a note out today through our ShareAsale program to all the affiliates and I want to share that with all of you as well - I hope I made some good points.
_____________________________________________________________________
Hi, first thank you for joining the Xfuel affiliate program. We have a diverse group of affiliates now from professional marketers to video gamer teams and players. the professionals know what to do and how to make sales and again thank you for your efforts as I see some are starting to pay off!!!
For the gamer crowd, I visit your sites and see the banners, your doing a good job - thanks! I feel I need to remind some of you that your business is different than most affiliates, you host forum sites, chat areas or social networking sites.
To pick up the pace of your sales you must start telling your readers / followers to "buy the product". There is nothing wrong with that, that is why we did the "support this site" banners. Don't be afraid to tell them, "Hey why buy Monster or Red Bull when Xfuel is better and by buying xfuel we do make some money off of it and that keeps this site open with all the things you enjoy on here"
I watched the other night for the first time the movie "Yes man" with Jim Carrey, I don't know if the movie was a success or not but it made some great points. The main point is "say yes", stop saying "no" and good things will happen which they did. What your doing with us as affiliates in the gaming space is brand new, never done before - you are making history!!!
You have to get out and tell people "Yes, it's ok, buy Xfuel" and they will. Ive gotten too many notes from gamers going, "nothing has sold yet!". I look at their site, tell them what is wrong and what to change and most of all change their attitude and they say "NO" by doing nothing. The people that said "YES" and changed things got hits, plain and simple, the more hits the more sales, the more money - "YES" breads success - don't forget that!!!
Joe Gere
ps - don't forget you can write to me anytime jgere@aboutmelabs.com, I'm here to help and answer any questions you might have about anything!!!!

Xfuel - Modern Warfare 2 [Midnight Release Party]
The most anticipated game of 2009 is finally here - Modern Warfare 2!! What's better then getting the game on midnight the day it comes out? GETTING IT EARLIER, of course! We took advantage of our situation - since we got the game early we thought, "Hey, why not show up at a GameStop midnight release party and let others play the game early as well on the big screen!?" And that's exactally what we did. It was awesome!!!

Xfuel energy boards the Fenix Down bandwagon
Howie did a really good thing, he went to the expo in Philly which by most accounts wasn't very good at all. We had tons of people telling us to have a booth there and like Howie said to me , "you would have put a gun to your head it was empty!"
He did a great find there with Fenix Down, below is the press release as we worked out the details to our deal now but basically these guys own a 10,000 sq ft studio in NY. they do everything from audio to video to green screen or is that blue screen - who cares it's a friggin screen of some type!
Anyway we very happy to partner with them and we are going to be doing some cool things, look for us on TV soon with this new concept - thanks again, listen to their music, very cool band, great people - you'll love it!
Xfuel energy boards the Fenix Down bandwagon
Xfuel has grabbed hold of video game music sensation Fenix Down to become the official sound of the Energy Shot Company. Howard Panes was introduced to the band at this year’s Games X Convention in Philadelphia. Panes was quick to point out, “I realized right away these were the guys we needed. Xfuel needed a sound, a personality, and Fenix Down is able to give us that, and they’re gamers as well!”
Fenix Down (found at www.fenixdown.com) was founded by Tony Hanson and has been playing together since 2004. The band is noted for creating songs that are powerful, emotional and driving, as well as being influenced by Final Fantasy and other video game music. Fenix Down has brought something innovative to today’s music with their first single, “I’m Ready”- a winner of the Fuse TV Video Contest- their song “Fallen”- used for GameX- as well as their song “Heroes & Villains”- picked up by FOX NFL, all a tribute to the band’s climbing popularity. When asked about the project Tony Hanson replied, “We are excited to be working with Xfuel. It’s so great to see more and more things made for gamers out there. We hope to add a musical impact to everything going on!”
When asked about the collaboration, Alex Gere noted, “This is a good fit for us, we plan on having Fenix Down traveling with us to some of our events in 2010, and it will add another dimension to our Guitar Hero Challenge show. We are going to bring our show to The Next Level, by having the band there LIVE and converting some of their music to play in the game – no one, I mean no one is doing anything close, playing a Guitar Hero type game alongside the live band.” There was off the record mention of collaboration with some Music TV programs as well, and Alex ended the interview with his usual, “At Xfuel, we do it first and better than anyone.”
Xfuel formulated from the ground up to be a performance enhancing drink. Unlike their competitors, it has no sugars, no carbs and no calories. Full of healthy vitamins and an energy formula that is designed for a smoother incline with longer lastly energy with no abrupt crash like most energy drinks. Xfuel’s bottled in a convenient 2oz container without all the extra water that is used to keep the sugars dissolved in their competitors’ drinks – no sugar, no extra water, smaller size! Xfuel has steady energy, increased awareness, focus and stamina without the bad stuff. Xfuel is formulated for gamers who are required to stay calm, cool, and collected, in other words focused. Their non-carbonated formula is perfect for all virtual athletes where carbonation can lead to upset stomach and nausea under moments of extreme mental duress.

I'mmmm Backkkkk!
All right, got back Sunday and Monday went to the DR for some biopsies on 3 possible skin cancer spots so I'm waiting for those results now - but we did have a press release this week and it's here below and I'm going to get back to writing so I can piss off some more of you - LOL! Ok really I guess I do but hey if you can't take a joke - screw ya!
This release is world wide now, so hop on it or be left behind!
Xfuel offers sponsorship package to all gamers
Xfuel has joined up with ShareASale to bring gamers the ultimate affiliate based sponsorship package. The program is open to all teams, single players and gaming websites and offers unlimited sponsorship dollars. Xfuel’s new program is based solely on the participants’ level of commitment and there is no limit as to the amount of money one can get from their sponsorship.
When asked about the program Troy Tuttle, VP Southern Region replied, “Gamers are hammering on us everyday to ‘partner’ with Xfuel, we needed a way to really help them. A few tee shirts or some free drinks is not what gamers need, they need a way to pay in real dollars for tournament entry fees, travel, uniforms and new games!” Details of the sponsorships are posted at Xfuel on-line store located at www.gamersonxfuel.com and through ShareASale. There is no upfront cost to join ShareASale and once gamers become familiar with how easily they can make money through Xfuel, the company is hoping the gamers will expand into other programs that ShareASale offers as well.
Founder Alex Gere shared his vision of the Xfuel sponsorship with us, “I was very disheartened by many of my fellow gamers, many are far better at web design, SEO and overall driving of traffic than I am, or probably can ever be. Xfuel wanted an incentive for gamers to start making money on-line and not to work at McDonald’s. To have a real source of income that is dependant on how much effort they put into it. My father wrote on his blog one day about how no matter how many burgers you make at Burger King in 1 hour you still get the same amount of money and depending on how smart you work at our program determines how much money you can make. Our first trial gamers made $72 in less than 2 hours – try to make $36 / hr while you’re in High School or flipping burgers!.”

Still on vacation with the wife!
I'll tell this 3rd person so it sounds better!
One very nice day, Joe (me) was riding his Harley on the beach in Nassau.
There came a point when he was startled by a voice from the clouds...it was God talking to him.
God said..."I am impressed with your life style and things you do for the gaming community and I want to grant you one wish"
Joe gave it a bit of thought and said "build a bridge from here to New Jersey so I can ride my bike over here."
God looked at him and said "Joe, be reasonable. That will take far too many natural resources, it will be a problem for shipping...all in all, it is not worth the effort. Make a different wish"
Joe leaned back and thought a bit and said "God, please make it possible for men to understand women. What makes them happy? What makes them sad? What can men to to completely satisfy women and make them content?"
After a bit of silence, God turned to Joe and said "would you like two lanes or four lanes on that bridge?"

Rob & Big - Do work son!
One of our favorite TV shows is Rob and Big, we watch it all the time as a family, me and the 3 kids!
Big Black has an expression and it's "Do Work Son", look it up on-line - "To get someone motivated to do something. When one "does work" they are accomplishing a task. No matter how small or large the task is they are still doing work. Do Work."
Well today is my Do Work to you speech because I am so impressed by one of Xfuel drinkers!
I'll only use first names here - one of our fans Nick W believes in the Xfuel product, even more than believe he read what I've been writing and wanted to get out there & sell it - I want to convey his story and the amount of money he's going to make selling it directly to his friends and people in school.
Nick brought 24 bottles, he pre-sells all 24 bottles so he takes in $72 in 48 hours. $36 of those are his to keep, $36 paid for the first 24 bottles.
If Nick takes the $72 and buys more product and sells that in one week, he makes $72 more, he now has $144 and that is in under 2 weeks. Nick thinks he can double that with ease. Nick will buy $144 worth of Xfuel & sell that and make $144 or have $288 in gross sales.
If he just stays right there and sells $288 a week worth of Xfuel (which is under 50 bottles a week) Nick will make $7,600 in cash in one year to put in his pocket.
No bullshit, no lies and I hope he replies to this, but at that simple rate of $144 a week profit he makes $7,600 this year!!!!
So, when you people write and say "I want $50 for travel money" and I tell you to do this and you get all upset and laugh and call me names and say "that's bullshit man!"
I want you to think of Nick W., Rob and Big and the fact that Nick W is 14 years old and is way on his way to learning how to make money.
ps not to insult you but when you have a "job" regardless of what it pays you only "earn money", Nick is learning how to "make money" a huge difference!
It's your life, use it wisely!
