Tellman…do you need a hug?????
I’m on your list for all the great resources you have pointed me too - plain and simple.
I find quality in every thing you send . Honestly the most important thing I have learned from you has come from the emails I receive.
I signed up to your list , read all your emails and while I would never copy the emails , I do try to follow your style .
I count on the truth from you Tellman. You show me the real way. And as a model, of what the live I could be living is like.
You seem genuine, and honest, but so far your List Building Club I have found absolutely no value at all in your tutorials whatsoever. I haven’t even made enough to pay for this months web hosting fee.
regards.
You, Frank Kern and Dan Kennedy make marketing *entertaining* and not dry and boring. That’s the primary thing that sets you apart. The fact that you changed your hair and stepped out of your business suit style was quite a lot of fun to watch. It would be even more fun to hear about what kinds of crazy stuff you get to do with megamillionaires like Richard Branson and guys like him.
Tellman,
Why am I on your list or was on your lists. Well for one I was introducted to Ric and Liz Thompson and Ric adviised me to get on your list because you helped him so much.
Both you and Brian really know what your doing and your videos are a great learning tool. I will come back one day because I enjoy your video courses and learn a lot from them.
Tellman…
Heck, I’ve followed you since you did that video with the 13 other guys in Washington, DC. a few years ago.
Matter of fact, you had no hair. So that shows you.
What do you do? Umm - you present yourself outside the box hands down.
A unique style of salesmanship.
well, i think you have the gift of gab.
you ask those not to put, “to make money”, as their comment.
the people that are on your list to be your friend, buddy or just want to make a positive change in their lives need to get a life. they could voluanteer at the local soup kitchen. which is great, i respect that. please don’t tell us that making money is not the main reason for people joining your list. i get so f___ing tired of people saying, “why am i here”, “what is the reason i am here”,”what is my purpose in life”. sounds like me when i was in highschool in the 70’s. sitting around smoking pot and asking my friends what the purpose of life was. maybe, some of your list people should just join, myspace, facebook, xanga, twetter. they need to get out of the way, so those of us who want to make a business and make money can do it.
Tellman, Please don’t hold it against me, but I’m a Jeff Paul student.
I first entered your club when I spent a dollar for the ferrari giveaway
I have a cousin that had to undergo a RADICAL masectomy. I was impressed that you-all were willing to help those in that kind of
distress. It kinda pissed me off that I was spending more $$$ for
another marketing group, when I realized that I had joined a new
club. I have talked to your staff & I think you folks are down to earth
& truely want to help. Please e-mail me any time MDA, thanks
For me your “unique-ability” lies in the way you communicate and teach; even when I know you are selling something.
You make me feel comfortable, capable and willing to try things that I might not have otherwise attempted; like online marketing.
You are a great communicator and teacher and when you do the training, I learn very quickly and easily from you. There seems to be no sense of angst, pushing or prodding in you and that translates comfortably to me and makes it easy to learn.
I also like you quirkness, it the fun part of you and makes me smile.
Tellman,
I like your candor, and I figure I can learn something.
Matt

Tellman- I know you are honest and have demonstrated
expertise in the world of internet marketing. I went to Matt Bacak’s class in GA in 2007 and am curently enrolled in a coaching program with Matt and Dan, The Protege Program. Just started this the last week in April.
I am preparing to write an e-book for real estate and mortgage professionals “How to use the HP-12C to Sell Real Estate”
Also I have just startted an affiliate progrm with Additional Stores.com BRUCHMALL.COM getting some hits now but no sales as yet.. Am going to link another Mall to this one. I also started with an MLM company Waiora, an outfit with some fabulous nutritional products.
I am and have been a Real Estate Broker here in the Northwest for many years. This business has quieted down as you probably know.
That is why I am involved in the internet. and have appreciated your success…. just have to get moving as you have told us. “GET GOING BRUCH”

I read your comments and watch some of your videos because you are clever and creative.
I can get “canned” stuff all over the ‘net. However, if I want creative and original stuff, I read and watch your stuff. Not always, but mostly.
Also, I believe you are mostly honest. Please understand that I don’t know anyone, nor have I met anyone in the last 70 years that I believe is TOTALLY honest. So, from me, it’s a huge thing to say someone is “mostly” honest. My opinion doesn’t matter to most people, but you asked so I’m saying that I believe you are more honest than most.
Clever, creative, original and mostly honest.
Bill Fontaine
Tellman I like listening to you and watching your videos and learning about marketing online,I get a little bit more educated every day, so that makes me not be stagnating my brain is working and that in it self keeps me healthy,and in turn what I learn from you and others like you, I will teach to more people when they are ready to learn we must keep learning ,so with that check out my website tellman and sign up for my free news letter oh and please leave comment as to what I can do to make my website a little more attractive, Chester Roberts http://grooveystore.com
Sound too soft.
1st part seemed to be rambling.
I’m not too certain of what you are asking.
Tellman, You were the first person I found to learn from a year ago (through AWAI). You taught me how to set up and build a website, set up and use an autoresponder, and set up and use a shopping cart.
Then I began to get lost in the torrent of guru’s I found from your teleseminars. It came down to, if Tellman recommends him, he must be good.
So now, one year later, I have a great foundation in online marketing, but still no sales - not your fault! I certainly appreciate all that you have put out, I’m just still in information overload mode.
It took me a while to realize that your online niche was teleseminars, it took a while to realize there were niches to online marketing.
You do teleseminars, Mike Filsaime does freebee’s, Russell Brunson does upsell’s, Fran Kern does launches, Stompernet costs alot of money, and nobody really knows what John Reese does, but he is very good at it.
Now, unemployment is running out so I’m studying PPC with Chris Carpenter.
To answer your Question, what do I look to you for? Well, in the beginning I looked to you for everything. Now? I’m not sure what to do, so I can’t really answer your question.
It seems I’m past the point of get rich quick newbie programs, but can’t afford hand holding. And all the “blueprint” programs I have bought seem to be missing key data.
I don’t know how I screwed up the simplicity of
“find a market, find a product, and get in the middle”
but I did.
If you could answer that, then I would be eternally grateful.
Wish I could be more help.

well its like this i love dear tellmen i think you have avery good personality
you are a very smart young man but i cant aford the site you have i think your modgel 13 would have been good for me but like i said i dont have a budget that it would fit thank you tellmen . keep up the good work!
need traffic to my web site or just need couching someone to tell how to do internet marketing right not makeing money at all little money to play with . just trying to find the anser barry
Tellman - I can’t seem to get anyone to address this question I have. I am a newbie- trying to break into affiliate marketing buy I am not understanding how people make money at this considering the fact that pursuant to clickbank the average product return percentage is about 85%. If I affiliate a product through clickbank and buy google PPC at say .25 cents per click I will spend $250 for 1000 clicks. If I get a 3% conversion rate I will sell 30 products. Assume my affiliate commission is $50 per sale I will “earn” $1500. But if 80% return the product won’t clickbank credit back $1200 (24 returns at $50) leaving me a gross profit of only $300? Subtracting google ad expense of $250, leaves $50 profit. How do you get rich doing that? Chris.
Tellman are you in the SLC area? I would love to buy you a beer…
Hi Tellman!
I’m 51 and until 6weeks ago I didn’t know crap about marketing of any sort. I’ve been self employed carpenter most of the time. In my experiences with a lot of different types of people. You my friend, and I call you friend because you have that personality, that anyone could be your friend. Your honest and want to help people , and do a good at it. That is over half the battle when trying to teach what you know. I am sure you are an expert at listbuilding, not because you said so, but because you are sincere. For some dummy like me, that didn’t have a computer until last Aug., you have taught me a lot, and fairly easy to understand, which I really appreciate. I don’t know how long you been involved in teaching listbuilding, but I think your doing a heck of a job, and I thank you for it.
Take care,
I really enjoy your videos and mailings’
John Slack
your unique ability is that you are able bring out the best of people and motivate them to take action. It is your goof ball personality that let’s us know we can make it and be ourselves.
Always the random smiles as well.
Tellman,
You tell your fellow man, like it is. I want someone who I can trust to tell me the straight story. When I listen to you and see your unique self, I feel you are sincere and are telling me not what I want to hear but what I need to know. Although I have not done well list building, since I first had trouble even deciding if a domain was actually worth it, I still come to you to listen because I believe you really do want to help people.
As bad as your other day was, I had a terrific day. I had 3 internet sales, my previous record was 1, I added 120 people to my twitter account and I attribute it to you. I was ready to give-up on the internet but your sound advice has re-inspired me to keep trying. With a name like Tellman you’re a natural fit to tell us what we need to do to achieve success. I hope you listen as well to us, so you can structure your programs toward our needs.
Your successful, unique and well-versed in teaching others to get to their next level. I’m sure your helping thousands of others fulfill their dreams and I only hope I can continue to get your sound advice as I try to reach my next level. I wish I knew how to make a video so I could express it to you in a live way, but that’s a level I’ll have to strive for.
Thanks for being your strong self.
Bob K.
You obviously haven’t sold yourself out to the “establishment”. You’re persistent and tenacious and tou “appear” to care and want to help.
Tellman,
Hope all is well. In all honesty, seeing you and how you put everything in such a detail but simple format made everything easy to do. The only thing that I would like for you to do is keep everything plain and simple. And post important, keep everything honest. Thanks for your help.
Mike Smith
Gee, My Friend Tellman, I listened. But all that I can”Pick up” is my
thought that you’re quite depressed. How about planning a Vacation??
How much do you HAVE TO DO? Do the least and TAKE OFF but only
to a Wonderful Place that makes you Happy. Take a nice Book. Maybe
one just off the Stands, one that you really wouldn’t read otherwise…..
Kinda REST, how’s a Hammock sound??? Am I getting close???
Please…..take good care of YOU.
Warmly, Bonnie
Tellman Thank You, I do believe everything happens for a reason! I would not be here if my house did not catch on fire! I have been forced to do things I don’t want! It really sucks! what happened! So that’s where You and Shawn come in! Were all looking for a better way to live, It is really hard to figure out things you have never done before and to actually have someone you trust! I have a lot to loose here, so trusting You and Shawn is best for all of us! I don’t understand how all of this works but you guys do. So I use what little bit of money I have to invest in You and Shawn to show me a better way!! I believe you are for real, just by being you.Most gurus rip you off! I think you can give people another chance in life, That is if we figure out how to do what you do. Thank You,Lorraine C. Van Ryckeghem- misspowerpink.com
I trust you………. Robert/ Bobcat Wright
I think its a very good video.I like to watch what you are doing and have to sayI have been following since you startedand think its cool how far you have come.I have to get started .Just gotta figure out how
Hey Tellman,
This is a question that I think about often. What is my unique ability?
Your unique ability is to inspire others to take action. Even when I thought it couldn’t be done in such a short time you inspired and help be get my first squeeze page online in less than 1 day. You really have a knack for “helping me kick myself in the ass”. Sorry for the PG-13.
Upon listening to several calls between you and your customers it was very apparent that you don’t let whining and obstacles get it the way of the desired outcome. In fact you seem to look a challenge in the face and laugh “come on sucker is that the best you have!”.
Peace,
Michael
I’ve been on your list pretty much since you got started in this business.
I don’t know you personally, but I read many of your marketing messages and have participated in a number of your programs. We have a lot of the same teachers and mentors (for me, virtually, of course). I even met you once at a seminar event a couple of years back. For me, the answer is obvious. The name of your company is called Overcome Everything! I know your story. You shared it with us on many occasions and it continues to inspire me to this day!
You have overcome some very challenging situations and circumstances to get to where you are today.
You are fun, out-of-the-box, generous, vulnerable, unconventional, daring and downright determined!
There are so many people out there in want of the energy, enthusiasm, authenticity, and wisdom you have to share through your message, products and services.
You could have called yourself The Super Listbuilder, Top of the World Traffic, Mining for Mega-Affiliates or something like that ….but you chose to name your company Overcome Everything!
You are a powerful example of that, Tellman, and you teach others to do the same.
Cheers and God Bless,
Natascha
What I’m trying to figure out is, WHY, if indeed your Business is making millions and you live in a Million dollar home, WHY, can’t you get a $19.95
Tripod, ps Tellman, sorry I missed your phone call yesterday. good night and may God Bless
Tellman!!! Am, I really the first to comment on this?
I’m not usually the first on anything. So, give me congratulations!. I need them. I want to be successful in the Internet Marketing field.
I give you congratulations for being awesomely entertaining, geniusly creative, and a wonder to behold, in addition to being so knowledgeable and ahead of everyone else!!!
I have spent thousands on my credit cards trying to learn Internet Marketing. My resources are gone.
I need to put up the website, and get with it.
Do you really think I can duplicate what you have done?
I sure hope that I am doing this right.
What are you doing in Utah, Tellman? I thought you were from Vermont.
Anyway, I’ve thought a bit about your video and came up with a few scattered thoughts.
First, your emails are usually off-the-wall, especially the subject line. Once in awhile, the subject line grabs my attention and I open it.
Then, it seems I end up at one of your teleseminars.
I think your main characteristic is enthusiasm.
Second, you sound like an everyday idiot. I don’t mean that as an insult. You just sound a bit weird and not so smooth that you sound like you are really seriously selling something.
People “tighten up” when someone sounds just too smoooth. So, you come across as a bright, querky guy who doesn’t particularly intimidate people. I think that’s an asset in today’s jaded and cynical marketplace.
I’ve been a publisher/Internet entrepreneur since the 1980’s (Internet since 1994) and if you can come across as sincere, everyday people without using all the trite hype words you can be successful. Anyway, it appears to work for you. You want to do a webinar with me on child-rearing and ADHD? I’d love to interview you on my new webinar platform.
Learning how to make a business work.
You make your email messages entertaining and you provide me with offers from other internet marketers that may help me in establishing a successful internet business. And you are relentless (that’s a good thing which proves why you are successful).
SIR Hellman. Douglas here. not your problem but mine. first i have no job no card to even think of any thing to get started in marketing. yes i do push what i can but no money! affiliate sites help sites and just help sites.NOTHING? My big problem is the simplest cut paste,to different locations to put all together. a lot of “experts” cannot explain simple how-TO.Well you can help people if you want! sho a step by step program to help “DAH” like me. THANK YOU! douglas hutchinson. sevenbirds7@hotmail.com or sevenbirds7@gmail.com HELP! OK!
Greetings Tellman…it’s funny that you should come up with this question at this time. I will be laid off from my job in about eight months due to cut backs. I only have one-hundred extra dollars a month to spend, and have been thinking about who I know that could help me with their program to replace my 200 dollar a day salary by then. It came down to you and Jon Olsen from Hit Exchange News. To me, your promotional emails always seemed to legitimately want to help people succeed, even tho you were “selling” a program. You’ve never seemed to be pushing a program just to be pushing a program. You always sent tips and tricks and ideas of ways to help the people on your lists to succeed…and that is why I first joined your “List Hero” program and read anything you send me now first…you seemed real. I’m sorry to say that I haven’t followed thru with anything since List hero, but I always look forward to your emails; and with each thing you’ve sent since then, it only reaffirms that feeling I get that you are “real” and care. I didn’t choose you tho, because you seemed a little to “big” and I thot that you would be to professional to really take an interest in my upcoming problem to really want to help me personally.
P.S I never heard back from Jon

Where I come from, we call your “unique ability”, the common touch. You have no airs and graces. You’ve “made it” but you don’t talk down to people, you put no distance between yourself and others less successful. You speak to each of us as though you were holding a normal everyday conversation in your kitchen over a nice cuppa. Your whole demeanour and the way you present yourself instills trust in your readers/customers. For me, I like that you’re an individual and not a sheep following the crowd of other “gurus” and I appreciate the plain talking.
You may not like this, but you remind me of my son who is my youngest child. He has had a beard since he could grow one, says it takes to long to get his hair cut also the way you say some things. He also has his own business he is a glass blower.
With that in mind I feel like I can trust you and take part in your programs when I can aford to. I look at your ads in hopes that I will get a tip or two that will help me learn more about the computer as I am just trying to teach myself . I grew up before the computer age and never used one before.
This may not help you get the answers you are looking for, but it will let you know that even the newbies try to get help from what you have to offer.
Hi Tellman,
What has drawn me to be interested in you is your great imagination. This has come through in the emails you put out. The spontaneous and interesting imaginative scenarios you have come up with since i first met you in 2005 or around the time when Mark Joyner opened simpleology made me laugh and interested in what would come up next. (I kind of joined you down the rabbit hole, since then.)
I like the fact that you put yourself out there, such as on your blog. I find your ability to just be spontaneous and energetic as infectious.
The verve and intelligence with which you interviewed people impressed me.
You send more emails to your list than anyone else but I receive that as part of your enthusiasm and go get it ness.
I’ve enjoyed you entrepreneurial genius as you created list building club and “add site”. I’m also amazed at the number of ideas and angles you come up with.
You can come across as loud and brash to some but I always sense your sincerity.
I also appreciate how inventive you are and the number of ideas you come up with. You are aldo very good at coming up with ideas for others, useful and helpful to them.
I like your NLP abilities. and you power to ‘meet’ people, interview them and to create joint ventures.
Your giving and helpful spirit is evident to me.
I like the message that you convey of not being afraid to ‘get things done”.
Over all I like best you creative imagination in writing and in coming up with ideas to help people and to create new projects. I like your ‘do it’ example. I like the magical and imaginative tone you can set when you are at your best.
I;m sure I could come up with more. However, I hope this is useful for you now.
With much appreciation.
Norm
First of all I like your honesty, I feel that with you I’m going to get my moneys worth. So far every product or program that I have bought from you has given me more than I expected, with extra props to the List Building Club. I am on Social Security Disability and getting what you
pay for is very important to me. Oh yeah I also like your if you don’t like me the way I am, that’s to bad attitude You Rock!!!!
I’ll start with your appearance. You look a helluva lot better now than the early pics when you looked like a bald, stuffed penguin. I like your down to earth quality, no pretense, honest.
Now, I do get a little fed up with you and the others telling me how much you have , and then you turn right around and tell me you have this other program that I need in order to learn the real secret of making huge amounts of money. This doesn’t sound too good to someone who has just lost their car and may lose their home.
Anyway, I enjoy listening to you.
Mr.T.Your smart and wise but thanks but no thanks right now i’m keyed in on one thing and that’s getting my Business off the Ground Floor .I get sign ups who waant me to do all the work for them so i just need to rethink this internet thing i’mm on your list you’ve giving me some good insite but i need to do this thing myself .Soon My name will be as known as Yours is Now ….lol
May GOD Bless You and Your Love Ones.
Mr.Brian Martin,CEO,Martin INC.
Tellman, looks like a Castle behind the Bears/Beer. This reminds me of some time ago counseling. She though it was time for a “frontal lobotomy when all I wanted was a bottle in front of me”. She didn’t understand, then in fact hardly anyone understands. Internet Success101! Hunh Whats for
an encore.
Tellman,
You, like so many great marketers, move very quickly.
I like your zeal and willingness to share your knowledge. I don’t blame you for that and I understand your in this for the business. I believe you really want to help people as well. So maybe you can explain why marketing gurus
are always trying to overload people with material before they can digest the first program we bought???
Thanks,Doug.
Hey anyone Reading This You Can’t go wrong Following Mr. Tellman
He’s one of the best at this but if you read what i said to him i’m just a hands on guy that wants and needs to make it on my own . But that’s just Me if i wasn’t me i would be all over anything this man was offering or selling .Like i said I just need to make my own mistakes and learn from them .
May GOD Bless You And Your Love Ones.
Mr.Brian Martin,CEO,Martin INC.
Yes I have follow you since the beginning. Because your approach was honest and sincere.
Although sometimes when we have ups and downs, we always need that little encouragement to keep us going, you certainly provide that many times.
And for those of us for what ever reason, sometimes can’t climb the ladder of success as quick as others, you still provided content, that one could use to get pass the stage of stagnation. Keeping in mind the respect you have for your paid members. Understanding this is a business. Thank You.
But most of all what inspires me about you and your compassion for your art and your members, is your respect for those that encourage you and left you a legacy, that you willingly continual to share. Of course everyone knows that I’m talking about you Great Grandfather.
As an Inventor the story of your Great Grandfather in which you carry his name, has inspired me and always will. I’m sure he is will please, with what you have done and became. May the force that you drive continue PERPETUALLY.
Sincerely Howard Bush/inventor
Dear Tellman,
listen my friend and oh by the way i see( Frank Kerns comment) crazy shinaganinz lol. Tellman K i have been on your list both actually and a member of your LBC, you have seen my comments, vidoes and my postings around youtube and viddler too,
and one of the things i appreciate most of you is your ability to adapt your behavior and your niches in a scentric kinda way into what i am most interested in, i follow you and take some of your advice if not all of it to help me impliment, to demonstrate, or to just put into action with what i do and what i am doing now,
you see Tellman ever since you was introduced to me by Mike Filsaime long time ago i knew you were the guy, the guy who looked like me but who has his plan of action making him thousands of dollars a day and at that time being just an affiliate online i have grown at least 80% more than if i were to stay as an affiliate somewhere.
I don’t know if you missed my comments, or just pass them by cuz i don’t really ask a quetion or what? but i do know this my online friend is that you and your family of business partners are there for me!
SO please dont get in over your head,
your doing just fine Tellman!!
Love you bro-
Your marketing friend Thomas. ![]()
God_bless you!
That was cool connection for listbuilders to acknowledge your crafty display of ingenuity. I feel you made invaluale contribution on the internet.
Thanks.
Dear Tellman thanks for the opportunity to say to you that you are one of my hero’s!
I’m probably old enough to be your Mum and only know you through the net but you are so likeable (even with your sometimes eccentricity) and you are a human package that uplifts me and cheers my day. You make me laugh out loud at times.
I’v'e been fannying around/learning for some months in IM, whilst clearing real life/health challenges and only about to get started this month but I’ve have learnt a lot from you.
Not only useable stuff from the trial at listbuildingclub which is an excellent training source but also about the quality processes and people in what can be a minefield of hype and spin.
I feel you are trustworthy, you teach well and have a very quick and clever mind.
Any Mum would be proud of you, you have good values, you’ve built a great business, clearly retained great relationships and helped others and can be judged by the quality of the people around you.
You are a true success and I hope you continue to be so and enjoy it.
Thanks a million for your help to me.

Videos like that bring out the maternal instinct in me. What do I like or appreciate the most from Tellman? List Building Club training, the Ferrari Club encouragement calls (I won’t win but I plan to at the very LEAST come out of it with sales and the beginning of a list - more than that would be excellent.) On consideration - you are great at being encouraging and also fantiastic at helping me (and obviously many others) to work out and implement the steps to achieve our goals. I am not going to give up while you are behind me helping me to “overcome everything.”
ps. I love the way you say ‘Awesome’!
Tellman,reminds me of some time ago counseling by Mr G. I though it was time for a “frontal lobotomy when all he wanted was to put a bottle in front of me”? I can follow you some more.Try more its got to be Video Over
Tellman,
You work with powerful partners such as Shawn and Brian, and that is something which shows good judgment. Though I didnn’t continue ListBuilding 101, Brian’s videos were excellent - short and easy enough to satisfy the technically challenged. Your teleseminar strategies and execution are excellent..and launched your career with List Crusade.
But what really sets you apart is your ability to write snappy emails that get people to open. I’d bet you have one of the highest open rates in the industry. Teach people how you analyze the infor you want to get out and your technique for luring people to check out whaatever you are sharing or selling.
Several times I grew tired of receiving endless emails, but then I realized the email was the lesson, if nothing else.
I need some help setting up a web site for an e-book
What about list building for this?
Tellman, you and Shawn Casey were the first two people I met online through your listbuilding video tutorials. I do not know you but with all the communications (emails/videos) that you sent me, I have this feeling that you are an honest-good-hearted man. You helped me a lot, I being a newbie here, you made me understand how it is online.
I like your voice, you speak so clearly.
Keep up the good work and please never stop helping people like us.
More power to You!
Well tellman,firstly I like the fact that you look and act the way you want to look and act, and if others don’t like it, that’s their problem.If I was a successful as you are I would chuck my job and look the way I want to and do my own thing too, and stuff anyone who didn’t like it.
I am a newbie, trying to make some $$ on the internet and not doing it even though I have been trying for six months.I read your emails and like what I see but cannot afford to buy your programs.I know people say if you can’t afford to, you can’t afford not to, but I have lost over $20,000 trying to make money on the internet and so am too scared to commit more.
HOWEVER I keep subscribed to you because I think anyone with your track record has a lot to offer, and you are definitely a good motivator for me.I believe you offer great training, and hopefully the day will come when I will be able to afford to really take full advantage of what you do so well.
I find information overload is my big problem as some others admit to as well. I could never buy all of your stuff, and would not know how to work out which to get into and which to leave as you do say that every one of your offers is better than the last.It all gets a bit overwhelming.
Being a complete newbie, I follow you because I think you have a lot of knowledge and experience about the IM space and you are sincere in your desire to help others. Compared to a lot of hype out there on the Internet, I like your low key, “matter of fact” approach to talking to us.
If asked what you could do more for us, your subscribers, I’d ask for an occasional bit of real valuable content from which we can take some away some solid information that makes us think “holy crap” this is awesome… something along the lines of Frank Kern’s idea to give away some [bits and pieces] of your best stuff free.
Cheers,
Glen
I am a member of listbuilding, and it is a great place to learn how to get started on the interenet. I have learned from you, and you seem like you are sincere about helping people, but I will be honest with you, at times with all the products you sell its hard to know what will really help me and what will not.
Why am I still your customer/client/trainee? Well, Sweetie, it ain’t your clean-cut good loks! (Tho I must admit that I appreciate the honesty and lack of vanity of your video presence.) Mostly, I believe I can absolutely count on you ro deal honestly with your subscribers, I also appreciate that you have given use a real phone number where we can call for help…although sometimes I wonder if I am beyond even your help! Seriously, it is your obvious honestly caring for “your people” that impresses me the most. Thanks you.
Tellman,
Thanks for asking, here is why I am your customer. But, first of all let me explain what drives me. My goals in life might be different than most people, I have a loving wife and one son 19, and we are expecting twin girls in October. My wife is 38 and I am 41.
My goal in life is what brought me to you. You see I am one of Jehovah’s Witnesses and I am involved in a ministry work, and that work is what drives me. I work for an engineering firm and work in Geology, that is what supports me financially, but I would love to spend more time with my family and most importantly in this missionary work in bringing people something in their life that is different, something that will give them eternal hope, not just for 100 years or so, and not some dreamy promise of life somewhere we don’t even understand.
Most people know who we are, but do not take the time to listen to our life-giving message we have to offer.
So Tellman, here is what I expect out of anyone I take my time to learn about, I expect Honesty. I know you can’t give your attention to everyone who wants help online or you would be neglecting your own family. But, I know I can make money, easier and work smarter to achieve my goals, I do not want a million dollar home or drive a Ferrari, I am simple and will always be satisfied with a simple life. So for me if I made $50,000-$70,000 per year I would be satisfied and my family feels the same way.
So all I need from you is to be able to do this, I would be willing to even pay for a mentor to help me achieve my goals, but as I stated my goals are not as big as some. Tellman, so far you have gained my trust, and I would be willing to follow your plan, if you can direct me some more.
I feel like my hard drive is full (my head) I don’t know what information need to be deleted or maybe just a good defrag. And I look to you to defrag me. Can you help?
Hi Tellman
I watch some of your videos and have bought your products because you’re very successful at what you do and I learnt many years ago to learn from masters.
But there are other masters out there who are also successful and I don’t read their emails… why do I follow yours?
I like your humor and your energy and beneath that I get a commitment to help others succeed, and it’s people like you and your company who I feel will play a big part in transforming our planet.
Marketing is the big missing for many people … and you have mastered it. Thanks for sharing.

Alex Sprunt, Founder, Your Healthy Planet.com … where it PAYS to be healthy, green and sustainable!
What do I count on the most from you? Your honesty and integrity
The one thing I really need from you, is to be able to trust you.
When you tell me, “here’s the best way to do this” I will know that it is.
When you say, “this is a great product, and I know the developer, and it can help you with ____” Then I know this is worth while to look at it.
There are several of the “big guys” in the game who aren’t very concerned about being honest, or being a helper, they JUST want the money. Which actually makes them worthless.
And oh yes, I love it that you seem deeply concerned and interested in “us little guys.” I think the List Builders Club is the best thing to hit the net! Viva Tellman.

Tellman, when I got in to the IM arena I searched for gurus that I could follow. Your name was one of the first I heard about. I began in your list building club and found it to be full of great content and I found you to be real. Unfortunately I had to drop out due to lack of funds. I still use your techniques that I learned from you, so you see you made a real positive affect on my life and IM career. Please keep up the good work. There are many looking up to you for hope in succeeding in this online world.
Hi !
I’ve been on your list for about a year now, I like all the advice you give.
What I would appreciate right now is a way to get lots of traffic as fast as possible.
Thanks,
Marcel.
I enjoy receiving your e-mails, Tellman, because you give me insight into another experience of spirit ~ or Self.
Particularly from other e-mailers, into the roots of Self and a sense of, hmmm, what will happen next?! lol. so there u go. You asked a question. You found perhaps a perspective to follow.
Tellman, I subscribed to learn from someone who is doing what I want to do, build a list of valuable and interested subscribers.
Your talent for taking a complex tactic and make it doable, that’s why I read everything you send. Plus, you aren’t trying to impress me with some mythical ‘internet lifestyle of wine, women and song’ - you cut to the chase, even when hanging out at home you’re real and sincere about what you say.
That takes courage, to have integrity when so many online have little if any. Thanks Tellman, and hope to be on your list when you hit 90!:)
I have just recently have begun to get emails from you and another guy and I have been trying to figure out how I can use your advice, but I get frustrated so easy …. clicking and going to websites that are like almost exact copies
almost like
yeah you want to sign up with me
watch this or these videos
then lists of persons saying how well they are doing with the program
then maybe lists of what you get
then the long scroll to the bottom to find out that you have to have alot of money just to start
or find out you are gonna be paying out before you ever get a chance to try to learn what it is you are supposed to try to do to make money
I just cant watch them anymore
but I took the chance and watched yours
I think it is nice that you want to learn about yourself
I am guessing it is because you want to figure out how to help others learn from you
Am I right?
Thanks for your video
I still don’t have a list. What are you good at?
Tellman , I count on you that why I’m in your list and your club ,the problem is
English is my second language , after I wacht and lisence the orther video I did
not get all just a little , most of them they talk to fast , but on this video your voice is cool I get alots , maybe I need your special help on the phone but I
don’t think you have time
Hey Tellman,
I hope your doing well.
Why am I on your list?
I don’t know exactly how I got here, but I can tell you why I stay.
It’s the value you deliver with most of your content. Some of it may be a little off the wall at times…but that’s what makes it entertaining. Nobody wants boring,mundane,same old shit in their inbox day after day.
But seriously, I have learned alot from you Tellman…and look forward to emails in hopes of advancing in the IM field.
I am here to learn how to get where i want to be without putting out any money to get started. That is why i am here, and i like the info you give out to everyone thank you.
Im new to the whole internet experience,your one of the first unknown emails I responded to,after joining shawn caseys program,I haven’t purchased any of your products,but you as a person really connect to people I value what Free content youv’e shared.Listening to other guru’s mostly I hear your a traffic god.Hopefully find out for myself soon,after you take me under your wing.
Teacher teacher here is a great big apple!!! Tell me all you know about making it big in the web
I stay on your list because you are interesting. I learn a lot and enjoy whatever you are rambling on about.
Hey Tellman I smell smoke >”< your over thinking things man…. When I was young I learned one thing from my father that has become a real asset in my life. (he never meant to teach me this I just got it from his behavior) He does not care what anybody thinks about him, mom would get so upset because he would go out waring things that did not match or looked “real bad”. He would say “if you don’t like the way I look - don’t look at me”. It really does not matter what people think, as long as you are happy with your self which - you have every reason to be happy with your self. If it is of any consolation I respect what you do (help folks) and who you are (a fine human being:-) I feel that in the end your getting an A+ because you care about others, you are a good person. So get off yourself and go eat a cake or something, & keep up the good work!!!
Love ya man!!

Hi how are you, man? I watched your video and although I haven’t been a subscriber for very long, but I owe alot to you and the newsletters that brought me to the LBC.Their free news letters helped me choose what I was gonna do after I lost my job to health reasons. They also led to your club which taught me that I could start a business with just my brains and whatever money I could find.
Now I’ve never met any of you, but I’m very good at reading peoples intentions. I have watched you in many of your videos and you do know what you’re talkin about. I wouldn’t be here if you didn’t.
I by nature am a skeptic and I have seen alot of programs that may show you some of what they did. They knew what they were doing alright, they just made $50 bucks when I bought their crap. Good marketing.
This is the first thing I’ve ever seen that gave exactly what was promised and more. I paid a a dollar and I got million dollar advise. Thank you.
One last thing, I did not buy Shawn Casey’s book Mining for Gold until I saw your videos and found out that he was your mentor.
Thanks again,
Robert Snearly
Entrepeneur
Tellman,
You’ve got a really strong product with the List Building Club. As I develop my business the LBC is the one resource I keep coming back to when I want to learn about different areas of internet marketing.
Some products come and go, but yours always seems relevant.
Hi Tellman! Thx for the video. Appreciate everything you do for your subscribers
Your unique in your way of what you call the “Tellman smackdown”. You see beyond all the yatta yatta, and present the core value in an awesomely clear way.
Your audio format rocks! Keep doing that. Your uniqueness lies also in your eccentricity which shows very well in your unshaven (pun intended) videos. I am however, dying to see you put more effort into your videos. NOT in the form of styling or cutting your hair, but in editing, using a storyline, showing us more behind the scenes etc…
You are a Master Storyteller - pls tell more stories in your videos
Best Wishes To Your Success,
Robert Axelsen
Tellman,
* Inspiration * I am inspired by your transcendence, growth and the sheer gumption it took to get to where you are. I identify with parts of the challenges you have faced/shared - and, when my doubts creep in, I think of all the people who were in the shoes I am in and were able to step into a new place - you are on that modest list. By being your unique/wonderful self, you are also inadvertantly supporting others to be their unique and wonderful selves too.
You do good work and helps others to get to a better place in their lives.
You`re a good teacher.
That’s what I like about you.
Thank you! : )
Nancy
Hey Tellman,
I enjoy your emails,videos,and content.
I believe you have a “normal”,”likable”,and “honest” desire to help the up and coming IM newbie and experienced ones also.
Your target subjects I find useful/helpful are traffic and list relationship.
Your email marketing skills are different than most - from the heart and not always aimed at our wallets.
Yes, I am on many of the ‘top’ lists but seeing your name in my inbox makes me say to myself “this should be good”
To sum up– keep the real you coming with
traffic and list building/relationship content.
Thanks
Rich
I have followed you for a long time and think you have a lot to offer
just read this and you will know what other people think
If it works why not let people try it and if it works then they will
give you whatever you want the whole idea of chargeing upfront
fees turns people away but if the product works they would gladly
give you any fees that you require.
On another point if you are interested in helping other people why
not showing it i understand you are looking after your own health &
wealth but if you cared about other people as much as you say you
would give them a go and you would reap the rewards of there labour.
I put it this way if the product works give people a chance to try it
you have the money why not give everyone else the chance to earn
the same opportunity.
Aloha Tellman,
Let’s see, well, a system that works is nice, and your system works!!! Your delivery breaks down the essentials into everyday speak. There are no “winks and nods” when it comes to getting the”big picture.” Just follow the directions, which you make very transparent, and one is good to go. Keep up the good work.

Tellman, after watching your video and a person who only sees you in videos, what you do for me is show me that you can take a dream and make it real. You are living your vision and each time I see you, I get a little more strength to live mine.
Hi Tellman,
Things I like about you:
1. The List Building Club rocks. No one has an excuse for not succeeding if they are a LBC member. I like the videos and the step-by-step method you use.
2. You are genuine and you surround yourself with great people — Pat, Brian, Kyle, Sarah — I’ve had great interactions with all of them. Customer service speaks loads about someone’s integrity and yours is the best.
3. It’s hard to know who to trust on the internet. Because you have shown yourself to be genuine, and because your interest in helping people is so obvious (who else would do a 3.5 hour Q and A call??), I know I will always get great content and good treatment from you.
4. I’ve done what you say to do and it works. I’m on just about everyone’s list and I’ve bought just about everyone’s product. They all have a missing piece. You give the whole story and you concentrate on what matters — list building and traffic.
5. You are just nice. A few of the people on your Q and A calls are unbelievably challenging. You are so patient. I like the way you say “rock and roll” when someone makes a crazy comment or asks when they can contact you privately.
Thanks,
Jennifer

Greetings and Aloha Tellman,
Well myself, the technogeeks, and the geekdivas came up with an idea. The special combination is created by my son the chef, and we really need your input on this as four of my six are in college so we really need to make the big bucks.
The idea is a spinoff from one originated by my son the healthgeek (the one on dialysis) and my son the chef (he won culinary jeopardy TWICE) Tellman Knudsen’s Sweet nuggets of wisdom, each box of cookies comes with an entrepreneurial nugget of wisdom and bonus coupons to use for purchasing from LWL cache of stuff, cause when you are thinking up those big ideas, you need a cookie (we also have sugarless).
So Tellman ,help a single mother of six (grandma of one:O) entrepreneurial mom out. This offer is also for anyone else who is a member of LWL ( and their friends) who wants us to develope as we say in Hawaii “da good kine stuff,” for their business. Declan,my aussie scotsman got us access to a licensed certified kitchen, and my at risk students (and of course my son the chef) are the cooks. (My son the chef also won a small remuneration for an earth day essay that was totally out of the box, he compared man’s treatment of the planet with the treatment of an abused woman, he got kudos, and some minor bucks )
So help a mom, educator, and entrepreneur (and her kids) finish college, get the “good kine jobs”, and leave a positive footprint on the planet.
TTellman, call, fax, write, and/or email and let’s work together on this idea.
Me ke aloha pumehana
The Geekmom
1.List building tips.
2.Entertainment. Can’t wait to see your current hair growth!
By the way Tellman, my kids like the video and love your hair. Tellman if you are into T-shirts that make a statement, you need one of my meat eaters manifesto T-shirts. It has vegetarians trembling in their arugula.

I think you know what it is to be without anything. With that said you can talk to people who are just getting started.Thank you.
Hey Tellman: I trust you, and your honest. Your good at marketing your product. Hang in there, you have all the money, I don’t have any . Yet ! ! !
Tellman you are so honest and open with your humanness and so I trust your words. Your stories are warm and humorous to me, as if you are a distant brother talking to me. That’s your warmness. I started to pay attention to your work because I trust my own intuition and I loved your very simple and doable ideas. I have not applied many of your ideas as yet because I was on a commited course of action to launch my new book. May 12th on amazon. I’ve taken a year to learn as I am a newbie to even a computer. I have a full time face to face private practice that I love. I am doing the internet for fun and the love of learning. I am a happy camper and love to have challenges of learning in my life.
The free stuff for now. Look forward to doing much more soon.
Tellman.
You are real. No apparent hype. Funky. One of us. Human. Not arrogant. Humble even. You don’t claim to have all the answers. And yet you have made it big time on internet marketing. That’s inspiring, really inspiring!
Hell! if you can do it so can I; and I will. With your help I’m on my way.
Love you baby….PJ.
Hi There Tellman,
You always have great information. My problem is trying to take in all the information from everyone else too. But that’s the way it’s supposed to be done, right? Surround yourself with successful people and you will become successful. With everything I’ve read and listened to, you’d think I’d be making some money at this. I’m persistent though, and will keep taking in anything I can get from you until I do become successful at this. I’ve been a builder for 20 years. Going from using a hammer to a keyboard is presenting quite a challenge. Keep up the good work helping boneheads like myself. We’ll be forever greatful.
Bill
Hi Tellman,
Around the time you showed a video of you doing the run and you bumped your head is when I first came to know about you and followed your videos.
Also you had associations with Richard Branson who is a felow brit, that caught my attention a lot.
And lastly your great success is kinda attracting, you seem like a down to earth normal guy that became very succesful quickly.
All of the above is intruiging, like a ‘magic trick’ and you don’t know how it’s really done. Let me in the magic circle!
I hope that helps.
Regards
Tony
P.S. Of course not forgeting your irisistable charm.
Tellman,
There many reasons why I personally follow you and take you and your team seriously.
You have incredible follow through.
You never give up on the little guy trying to figure it all out.
You encourage everybody to stay focused, motivated and honest.
You are not full of B.S. like a lot of folks on internet are.
What I have come to expect out of you are the thing you keep pulling off.
I look forward to the emails you send because there is substance and I know I will learn something out of each one of them.
The reason I started following you in the first place is because you have a truth about you that comes across in everything you do.
A thousand than you’s for helping so many OVERCOME EVERYTHING!
Rhonda Giarraffa
Tellman you have a unique style of marketing and a down to earth sincere heart to help people achieve their dreams. A lot of us do not know the first thing on how to get started in this business, but yet you are consistant in informing us of new opportunities to help better our lives.
You have succeeded financially where others have failed and now you are living your dreams.
We on the other hand are struggling just to make ends meet.
You provide a honest path for all of us to follow in your foot steps without charging an arm and a leg. That in itself is very noble, generious and different from all the other garus on the Internet charging high product and membership fees and not ever getting started or get loss in the shuffle.
With a sincere heart, you are willing to take the time and lead a new customer by the hand and lead them to success. In doing so, by helping others you help yourself succeed. That is the law of the Universe. That in itself is rare.
Keep up the good work!
James
How can you hepl me to get more knowledge in Internet Marketing
Thank you
Mario
Well!!! I first joined your list cos you are a guru so you must be doing something right. I stay on your list (this is more important), because “you are what you are”. What I mean by that is that you are a “what you see is what you get” type. No w, I do not know you but thats how you come across. I think you are the type of person who acts the same whether you are a billionaire or sweeping the streets. I like that in people. You are decent, credible and nice ( and you dont care what you wear, another very important point). So no fluff or B..S which is good. Keep up the good work and for gods sake dont let the dosh change you!!
Hi Tellman! Thx for the video
List buidling
I have to confess Tellman, my follow through on much of the teachings from the “Gurus”, my energies get scattered with all the possibilities rather than FOCUSING to completing the task to create the outcome.
To me, your unique ability is keeping my interest. I like you. All your oddities, bring me closer rather than push me away, because they feel genuine, not contrived. Then, I look at your headlines and content to see how I can emulate your style. Not to be LIKE YOU, but to be more genuinely me. With all the other FORMULAS for processes that bring traffic and for selling stuff, the key UNWRITTEN FORMULA you deliver so well, is in doing it all so authentically.
Maybe you can WRITE THE FORMULA and process you go through to put YOU in all your communications. The majority of marketers are less personal. They may have great stuff, and I will buy it, but I get bored with the lack of human-ness, and when I get bored with it, I pass it over. I start to ignore it.
I don’t buy everything you offer, but I don’t IGNORE YOU.
BTW: Check out my “thing”: “How To Get 94% of Your List To View Your Message In 10 Minutes or Less”. http://www.10MinuteNinja.com

You are unique in your unusual appearance and upbeat messages. Sometimes when I see your videos, I ask myself: “Why am I looking at this?”. The question is somewhat negative in that my impression of you (due to your appearance) is not very professional; however, that’s because in my work day I used to be surrounded by clean-cut folks in suits.
Therefore, your unusual appearance is different and it is this difference that gets my attention.
Truth is I don’t know, But please do not over analyse it, just relax be you and keep doing it.
I am still very new to this and you have helped me to learn ,both verbal and visual ,alot of what it takes to make it in this “WebWorld”. And as it should be with most honest and ethically correct people, you are yourself and relaxed in front of a camera. You speak honestly and are not afraid to admit if you don’t know something but can always direct people to the helpfull resources to figure things out. And you remind me of one of my sons whom I don’t get to see very often cause he lives too far away. But anyway , you are doing a great job and don’t give up or get too restless, cause you are A-OK! Keep up the good work and have a great day1
I am on your list because you have shown me that I can do this. I am a hairy, beard, bluejeans guy, x-rocker guitar type. Used to telemarket in dry times and by reading your emails and such I have learned to see IM as a telemarketting analogy and I know the numbers game all too well, all the cold calls, but I was good, in fact, tops. I used to make over 10K a month selling advertising over the phone from my home office.
IM is what I percieve to be the only way to achieve the same income in a world that won’t tolerate cold calling anymore. AND, it is the way I do not have to deal “face to face” with the clients and customers. I put in many long days and weeks/years looking at a screen with a mouse in one hand, a coffee or beer in the other and a headset on pitching and closing.
By following your example I know that I can migrate to IM and can loose the headset other than for live support calls and closing big deals. I also am alot less hesitant now to use the video presentations as you have helped me loose the “hang up” about needing this clean cut suit and tie stereo type appearance to make big money marketting. The cold call/warm call always concealed appearance and protected me and the customers from needing to maintain eye contact and such.
I have tons of mrr, plr and such and am in many many affiliate programs and use lots of different safe lists and ad blasters.
I hope that I can “migrate” all my things to one hosting company which I have found to be hostgator pro level and I hope to be able to get my computer email addresses, so many it boggles the mind, all as orderly and tidy as my in and out trays on my dest used to be.
Thank you
jon
One last comment:
YOU ROCK, DUDE !!!
The Reason I’ve followed or been ON YOUR LIST so long is .. I’ve been in NetWORK Marketing Fulltime for about 13 years doing fairly well.
I’m on the social sites on-line too but never really had or took the time to understand how to make money on-Line, but I’ve seen a lot of the come on’s and things.
You I’ve always TRUSTED for Some Reason! You have a way of being straight forward with good, mostly understandable, solid information.
NO BULL _____!
I will stay on your listbecause of that and oneday Hope To Make Money Because of It!
Thanks,
Phil Ballard
well…Tellman, first of all, u sure mean business and i think the way you introduce your products to the public is in a way people appreciate them to be received.. Youre coming around over and over again with your emails and information and its pretty much so that it all appear in a decent, serious and not at least a well meaning way, with a kind, and a sometimes humerous touch to them also. Havent succeeded in this business so far, not sure why, guess im the kind of type who need a step- by -step method more than most or just havent the required time for it, , but the way you introduce your products are simply done in a very likeable way…and guess thats just a mirror of the person you are.
Hi T: I like your videos and the fact that you are honest (very important on the internet) as well as humble. Don’t ever become arrogant because of money and think that money is the most important thing.
You ask, why am I here? We were put on this earth to serve others as it says in the good book.
You do serve others with the information you provide to your list and in the Listbuilding Club, which I am a member of.
You also don’t try to impress us like other gurus do with their expensive house, car, boat, etc, because that doesn’t impress me. We have a nice house, I spend the summer going sailing, kayaking and RVing.
What I really care about is helping others on the internet with herbs and natural health concerns, making enough money so we don’t have to worry about money anymore, and helping women and children.
All these internet gurus who are wealthy never talk about giving back, which I think is their responsibility as a wealthy person.
Our pastor talks about a BHAG - Big Hairy Audacious Goal, and mine is to help women and children in Third World countries. You only have to go to a place like Nepal (where we adopted our daugher) to see how many poor, starving children there are, and the number of orphanages.
It just breaks my heart. The wealthy people just talk abut all their stuff - who cares? I don’t. That’s not important.
It’s what you do to help others that’s really important, creating a legacy that lasts. That’s my goal.
Ask yourself - what matters the most? what will people say about me when I’m gone?
I have to say that you keep us updated to everything that you find that will help us to move faster without wasting time and money on stuff that is useless. It is more as if you are a friend who is calling to tell us the latest gossip ( but in a positive way). You keep it so simple!!!!! My only suggestion is to do a video that helped you to stay focus on the project until it is finish. That is where my challenge comes into play.

Thanks for all that you do!

Hey Tellman,
well I for one think you are a regular cool guy trying to help the rest of us out with all of the tricks of the trade and knowledge that you have.
Darren http://www.communityjuicerecipes.com
Dear Tellman
In case I’ve confused you, have left some comments above but signed them hb…….. forgetting that won’t mean anything to you as it’s not my list name………..
So please scroll up and see what my opinion is, you awesome, treasure.
MY GOAL IS THE WIN THAT CAR SO SEND IT OVER HERE TO THE UK AND i WILL PICK IT UP AT THE BIRMINGHAM AIRPORT
Tellman, you provide great resources and seem to really know what new online marketers seem to need most. We all need a push in the right direction and you provide that, along with your engaging personality.
Hi Tellman, You sound sad, I know how you feel! When I lost my house in the fire,I was telling my self the same thing! I lost everything,my parrot that I had for 13 yrs died in the fire,all of my things were gone,my mother in laws things as well, who just passed away.I was in a camper in front of my burnt house that we had just bought that year,thinking what just happened? I was successful in Mary Kay and now all my product is damaged and I have no house. I turned everything into a blessing! I gave to our Soldiers in Irac,I made gift baskets for the Elderly, I helped the women of domestic violence,as well as women with breast cancer. What I am telling you is sometimes in our life we wonder why were here?I asked God that when I was in the fire with my Son,we ran out of the house barely,and my animals were still in the house,they made it barely!Were all here for a reason! I did not die in the fire because God wants me to help others!He is using you to do the same thing!You know the key to success and You can make a BIG difference in our lives! I hope everything I am telling you helps you! I have already made a big difference in a lot of peoples lives anyway.God Bless,Lorraine C.Van Ryckeghem-misspowerpink.com
These people have it right. You’re original, sincere, inspiring, your material is relevant and for people starting out, it’s great because it comes in bite size pieces you can go back to. The video’s are great, because we get to see you and identify with you as a person rather than just watching a voice and a computer screen. You’re enthusiastic and that gives us hope.
I think you are really net savvy.I am not. I need very simple baby steps like coaching.Perhaps one day you will provide this help.Keep on with the great help you can provide.
Tellman, You are a grownup adult,so I don’t want to disrespect you in any way. I was searching for the true meaning of life and I found out one thing. Money isn’t the answer. When I had it I was still miserable. Life wasn’t as good as I thought it should be. Then I found Jesus,knelt down at my bedside, repented of my sins and recieved the Baptism of the Holy Ghost (with the evidence of it by speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives the utterence) just like the Bible says. The scripture says you can gain the whole world, but if you lose your soul , What have you really gained. I followed Act’s 2:38 and was Baptized in Jesus Name. I started seeing what real living is all about. I don’t know how miserable you want to be ,but if you want to know more about your salvation e-mail me back, to me directly and I’ll help you (I won’t take a penny from you) but I will tell you the TRUTH. Yours in Christ Rev. Ron Richards
I would say that to earn a place of value with people, and keep that respect, give them real information that they can utilize right away. There is too much information that marketers are selling that has very little value in helping people start to make income that they need in the short term. Successful marketers like yourself can zero in on what will produce results right away for people struggling. It would not take away from your business as you have already discovered how to make income. The people you help will remain loyal customers and buy future products.
You are a maven at networking and marketing - fun and interesting.
But the reason I joined the List Building Club is because it is brilliant!!! I haven’t seen anything else that breaks down the steps to an internet business, like writing autoresponder letters and setting up a shopping cart, and everything else too, in 50+ video taped steps.
Totally cool!
Tellman got your message…as I said in the email…”Was not able to view Vid” Link was not working even when I cut and pasted. So you can send again and I’ll view and comment. Or let me know of another link to view it at…Thanks appreciate your info and will apply as much is I can…when understandable.
Hi Tellman! Yes, I am on a lot of lists and it is impossible to keep up with everyone esp with limited computer time. I stay on because there is something I like about your style. I know one of these days I will get someone to assist me with the computer side of my business and then I will point them you your stuff
Continued success & Be well~

Tellman,
I find you information quite informative…but I am just starting out in this internet business stuff and would love to have your experienced help in getting started on everything from getting a list ogether, driving traffic tomy site…but each link I click on for you has a product which is way beyond my budget for now. I would be very interested in your help in getting things going…if you’d be interested in taking on a prodigy and I’ll be very happy to pay you on my profits, well what do you think?
Hi Tellman.
I have been on disability since 2003, and was injured playing a B Majors co-ed softball game. Basically I was run over at second base while waiting for the outfielder to throw me the ball. The gentlemen that ran me over rounding the base was 6′3 and at least 230 lbs. I have a petite frame, but the guy ran me over and I went flying. To make a long story short that injured my neck severely and about 2 weeks later became a paraplegic. My C6-C7 was being severed by a herniated disk. I had emergency surgery because my legs collapsed on me. BUT , the good new is, I taught myself how to walk all over again. NOT EASY but I did it. My neck was also fused…SO I am on disability because of the major neuropathy I have to deal with on a daily basis. I get paid on disability now, and I am grateful for that, the hard part is that money is NOT enough for me to live on. In 2007 I lost my condo, car, had to file bankruptcy all because I could not afford the things with the disability I was being paid. Living in California is expensive. I wanted you to know this story, not to pity me but to help you understand that there is a live person typing these comment and a person that HAS to so I can make more money. I was a humble before the injury but even more humble now, at least that is what all my friends say. Tellman with making more money I want to help people and I am driven to do so but I need more capital to do it. SO…here are my reason below as to why I follow you and need from you.
Basically, I trust you Tellman…I have fallen for many scams on the internet and have lost many $$ where “they” claim they will show you how to make money and then they send you something that really tells you nothing!
I also liked your personality as you come across as you care about people!
I need a MENTOR such as yourself to show me the simple straight forward way of making money quickly online.
I know you have heard this before, but ways to get a great list built in an easy way and not have to buy outlandish leads that are no good. This can be costly for someone on my budget right now.
I need to be taught by someone that can teach easy principles so I can understand them and then apply them quickly.
I can’t afford a lot right now to buy everything out there, those $24.95 monthly costs add up and especially when you are seeing no return or those $97.00 charges are too much right now.
I need to be connected to someone that makes it easy and get to the point. Bottom line I want to see results so I can get out of the financial rut and then help people and then afford to do the things I need to do in life.
I hope this helps Tellman!
Jan
Hi Tellman!
Great job! I’d liked your video.You have always good information for us.
The only thing thats really frustrating for me is when I want to buy some interesting stuff (all yours is!)or participate in your teaching groups,I get stuck when it comes to the payment and I don’t have a “stupid” credit card.
Well,things will change,and than I will be one of your students.
Thanks a lot! Verena!
Hi Tellman,
I have to say that you are a good teacher and that you provide the right information for your students. It is a lot of fun learning from someone who can be serious and a clown, but still get the job done. I appreciate you for everthing I have learned and for being a friend. Keep on doing what you do and hair or no hair you are okay.
John

I am a physician & a comedian.Thank God I make a living without a website, because I am a total internet failure.Outside of GDI and selling my textbooks on amazon.com.I have made no money with my websites.
So why do I partner with you? For the limited time I have to follow you, you got the best shit!!; and you make me laugh.You sent me some funny & entertaining emails.You got me onto ning which was good.I thought you would appreciate the video response I gave you where I turn into a
wherewolf.I thought that would win me the Ferrari,but I dont know if you
saw that video.My needs are quick short cuts to CASH.I make lots of CASH lecturing & you made me think of what I really want to do, which diverted me away from your mentoring.I am writing a BOOK, you convinced me & I thank you for it.It makes me happy to sit down & write
which is more important than $.I will put some of my book material on Ning.If you have any shortcuts to success let all of us in.It’s fun working with you.I wish I had more time,that’s why we need HOT short cuts for beginners th Real Cash.Keep it short simple fast and real $.That will build your list.I also suggest that you give us affiliate status & pay us for
getting your referrals like other mentors that give us affiliate URLs.LaughLearnEarn Louis Reznick
Hay Tellman,
I have never met a stranger quite like you. I honestly trust you.
Your advice has broken through the walls that my life could never get
around.
Thank You,
Greatfully Yours

YOU… are so perfectly, authentically TELLMAN KNUTSON!
That’s the thing you ‘do’ so well.
In other words, you ‘do’ what you BE — and it’s refreshing to see.
Personally, I think everyone on the planet has ‘value’ to bring to the table… (though it may not be valuable to everyone… not everyone is looking for ‘what they have to share’) yet the sad thing is that most people aren’t quite comfortable in their own skin… and don’t understand how this impacts the reception of the VALUE they bring.
By letting go and simply BEing you… you’ve become incredibly magnetic.
So… when I need a reminder of that, you’re one of the people I look to

EXPECT MIRACLES!
i m so glad to be among your subscribing list ! it really makes sense to follow your updates .your club is fascinating , your company so unique !! think you so much .
Lou, redo this!
I can’t hear anything!!!
I think I follow you because of the company you keep. It tends to have an effect on the way people look at you when you surround yourself with nothing but successful people. Obviously your unique appearence is why you are very easy to distinguish from the other marketers.
But the question you posed was what do you do that makes me follow you. The answer is that you profess to have a great knowledge of how to get traffic. That is something we all need more of and even though I may not be able to purchase any of your programs, there is always a chance I will learn one or two things from you for free on one of your videos, blogs or e-mails. For those times you do give little tidbits of info, I want you to know that all of us who are still working to get to your level of success and beyond, we appreciate it.
I think I added my comment to Youtube instead of here by mistake - anyway THIS IS NOT SUPERFICIAL - You have beautiful eyes… I’ve told you before… they are clear and blue and have a twinkle that communicates a sense of joy and connection that can be quite mesmerizing for your followers on screen.
The hair and the t-shirts and the gifts and the toys are just great fun and they make me laugh and as I do that I also know that there is an authentic and intelligent human being with a lot of genuinely helpful information to give - and a skilful and successful businessman with talent worth modelling. It shows in your eyes.
You combine the ‘off the wall thing’ with a solid sense of competence - which makes me feel great about following your stuff, because it’s fun yet it is also informative. I recommended you to a few friends and they thought it was just me and my stupid sense of humor until they listened and then they were VERY impressed by your content (this makes your content seem even better of course, because of the surprise factor).
You have a total wildness combined with a warm, safe fatherlyness and as a viewer I can imagine that you are a kind and loving parent - and of course that makes me warm to you as well. You make me smile and this is a very important unique feature of yours (and a very important feature to have in the world.)
I notice in this video that the twinkle is absent, so perhaps you need to recharge your spirit my friend. Sometimes searching for what makes you special can be daunting because it the very thing that is so obvious and ordinary to you, that is so special and unique for others. What does it matter if you don’t find it Tellman, as long as WE can all see it and get value from it. Just carry on being you. (eyes and all!)
This exercise has taught me something very important because I’ve been trying to analyze and discover the thing that people tell me is special about me and ~I just can’t see it from this side of my eyes. And what does it matter as long as its there and it does something for them. Thanks for another great lesson!
Tellman, you have had some list building ideas out in your information before they became general knowledge. I like to watch your changing hair styles. Wow…you went from no hair to the hairy guy.
If you are really wondering about your purpose and want to make certain your life matters, do something locally for the unfortunate. Seriouisly, volunteer at a shelter for the homeless or disadvantaged. Make a difference one life at a time.
Keep the good inform flowing. Cynthia Charleen–the De-Clutter Queen
Tellman,
Your story of that broken computer that humberger story
inspire me, I find you encourageable, you are proff that
if I try hard enough I will make it. Besides that you make me
smile or laugh when I watch your videos, I like your attitude to life,
you are kind and a good internet marketer.
I’m a senior citizen who lost a lot of money on Wall Street and I am trying to replace it because as you know Social Security is not enough to live on. You seem to frequently be talking just to me. I have a lot to learn, but hopefully I can still learn and make some income.
Well! You seem to be bumbed out right now?
Have you ever seen the movie YES MAN? You should really watch this show as it pertains to you.How can a man who has achieved so much in life go on a bumber?The majority of humanity wants to have 1% of what you have and what you have given back in return.I’m just starting to see some of your insides and you can only be a yes man as long as you live,so is it better to give or to be a recipient?You tell me coming from a man who has so much wisdom as to educate an uneducated man such as myself.
Looking up and looking at you always………………
I think you are great in your own way. You do cheer me up when
I’m down.Keep up with good work
Hi Tellman,
You seem sincere, although I don’t really have experience with you yet. Most of the time when I click on a link you send, it is both VERY time consuming (usually requires my attention for an extended period of time that I very rarely have time for), and in the end appears to require a number of things which are not at my disposal, including a substantial amount of capital, enough time, or enough expertise in that particular area to accomplish. Thus, it seems you have an ability to create paths of opportunity, but because the are always beyond my current reach, I have not pursued any of them, and do not really know if any of these ideas/concepts are valid and/or work for anyone, except for the commentary I see now and then regarding them (which I cannot verify as true or not). So, I have considered many times to unsubscribe because I have basically given up on pursuing anything with you until I have adequate resources, and by then, it may not be necessary. Wishing the best of luck to you, and hope someday to work with you on actually making something happen.
Hello Tellman.
Over some time I have tried several ways to get help for a resonable price and could never seem to find what I was looking for, until I found you. Since I am an old guy and sometimes have a hard time grasping some of the learning curves, going through the tutorial is just what I need.
My website I have built myself long time ago is very primitive, but it is bringing in a fair amount of business. What I am learning is boosting my income every month. Brian is doing a great job in guiding us slowly and patiently step by step in the right direction. I find that to be the best way to learn.
There are sometimes steps that is out dated and no longer work, but overall it is good.
The feeling I have of you is, that you have made enough money and like to give something back or should I say paying it forward? I feel priviledged to be on the list of yours.
Keep it up and I am recommending you to others to get on board.
Thank you for letting me.
Arne
Tellman, what can I say? I read all your emails, I instinctively trust what you say and follow whatever (mostly) you suggest. Keep up the good work, but have some ‘time out’, some ‘you time!’ When you work as hard as you do, it’s a safety valve. Anyway, I think we all appreciate all you do. Thanks a lot!
Hi Tellman,
Above all you are entertaining - your emails are generally off the walll and I will open them even if I can’t afford to get whatever is being offered.
Most other marketers flog their ‘bonus’ like it was some phallic symbol and it gets a little boring - I have always found you great value for money!
Hope this helps - keep up the good work…
I do appreciate your videos and your question to me is fair. I owe you at least an explanation why I joined List Crusade and also why I haven’t gone through to the full plan. Over the last three years I bought an awful lot of products when I was able to afford to because I could see back then, a vision where I could comfortably create income streams for charities and farming communities from the comfort of my home.
I did not anticipate that my wife would die and when this happened my whole world crashed around me. Everything I had envisioned fell to the darkest pit where I had fallen to and I lost all sense of direction and purpose.
Even now when I can raise a few dollars, rather than upgrade with anyone I’m compelled to donate it off to charity because I believe that is the right approach to help solve the world’s problems. Just a few dollars here or there from anyone of us or All of us, clears the burden of responsibility away from governments and it is an area that we can all become actively engaged into.
I am holding off by not upgrading as, and…you’re forcing me to reveal that in my married life, my wife and I had given everything we had away to help local charities around Western Australia, 911, the Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Appeal, the Andes Earthquake Appeal and just people we met on the streets of Perth received new laptops to help them out.
I know it all sounds a little far fetched but my wife of 16 years marriage was nearing her 102nd birthday in 2008 and time was short. In the final act of generosity it left us almost broke and I overdosed in 2007 hoping my Insurance would protect Sylvia for the duration of her life.
This was one of the penalties of giving too much away to help others but if I had the same chance, I’d do it a hundred times better.
And this is why I have remained on your list and indeed, remain as a member on many other people’s lists because I believe I can use my remaining time more purposefully and I believe in myself that by orchestrating and conducting myself with full online exposure, I can become as a part of the bigger picture towards saving lives through personal hard work & commitment.
Hi Tellman ,
Your cooperation with mark joyner.
Was so wonderfully constructive but i could
enjoy it for a very short time. For personal health
reasons.
I’m trying very hard to keep up with you with no success
till now….
thank you
Ezra
Tellman, you’re friendly, approachable, encouraging, honest, straightforward, and you provide real tools without hype. I don’t always care for your rantings on affiliate products by other internet marketers. I trust you to provide me with something real I can carry out and get closer to my own goals. Thanks for all the good stuff and for being who you are!!!
Ok Tellman,
Wish I was back east again, I grew up in Otis MA, miss water and trees.
Your question on the outside seems to be about you. But if anyone gave it some thought it is about then (me). What have I learned and valued about you in our past.
Well here it is, I have a very different way that I am building my list. At least in my mind it is different. I have read many things on the list building subject and I like your spin the most. I say the most not the best because I have not quite found the best yet.
I am subscribed to a crap load of lists, I have tried to contact the many guru people that I am on their lists. so far I got two responses to try and up sell me ignoring my questions. I think I will be putting together an e-book at some point pointing fingers and naming names.
I believe at some point you said and believe you need to be different and valuable to get noticed, (something like that) does controversial work for you?
What ever you are sending me I normally don’t mind opening because nomally there is a tidbit of value I can harvest.
Thanks for the opportunity to show you I am a little lost, haven’t got the list thing totally down yet.
Brad West ~ onomoney
Hi Tellman,
I am still hanging in here with you because I feel like you are an honest and decent guy. You seem to really care about helping people and that says alot about a person. I read all of your emails but I still haven’t profitted from any of your help so far. I do have a website up and I am in the process of adding products.
I’ll keep listening to you and following your advice.
Thank you
Donna

Where,s the video. You sure have straight forward ideas and your honest.Thanks for your help.
How to launch a successful campaign(1), and also how to convert traffic(2). Getting traffic is good, but how to convert that trafficis keyyy! So whatzup, Tellman!
This is the first e-mail I have given attention too because you asked for a favor (also your request was short and to the point). So when people ask nicely for something I will give it to them if I can.
There is a marketing lesson here even if I have not been as avid a follower of your work then others have been ( I should start). The Lesson “Ask and You Shall Receive” So ask more often and I will help any way I can. As a former advertising executive with a large agency and understand corporate ego and unnecessary complexity- Remember There is Genius in Simplicity!
Maybe not the help you were looking for but I hope you gain some value Tellman!
Tellman,
I get so much junk stuff from so many proclaimed big guru’s claiming to be making so much money it gets sickening. Some have a few relevant ideas but most are just rehashing someone elses ideas. And like it or not, first impressions means a lot when you start making videos. I used to take you a little serious a couple years ago but now your first impression turns me off and I wouldn’t send any of your videos to any serious internet marketer. Sorry !
Jerry
Firstly, I love your ‘eccentricity’ you manage to bring your points across quite clearly and differently… At times it brings a smile to my face, thank you for Tellman!
2ndly, I look forward to your emails and your links to the offers you promote, don’t for one minute think it gets deleted.
3rdly, I am here to stay –when I will be able to finally jump on the bandwagon with you guys –it will come! Don’t know if that made any sense… LOL
Kind regards
Isabel
hello tellman, you have allways been honest with me. you try to give thing
that will help me. your likable, and you do things your way.
charles
Hi Tellman,
The main reason I am on your list is that little thing called ADD.
I actually bought into the idea that my ADD was a defect. Many of my friends and family made jokes at my expense about my ADD.
Thanks to the report you and your friend made available, I no longer consider ADD a defect, since it has proven useful in my career as a service technician.
Also, I keep hoping for a “magic bullet” that will get me into profit. Obviously, that won’t happen, because there is none.
What I can do is read your blog and actually FOCUS on one area until I master it, and then the next, etc.
Now, if I could just decide what to focus on, that would be a great start. I know what to do, I just need to motivate myself to do it.
Tellman Knudson I have been on your list for a long time now. During all this time I have not particularly become a student of yours. So I can say that I do not know you well enough to comment, and I am here watching your Vid. because you asked me to take a minute out of my Day and that my answer was/is important to you
So instead of getting my Sunday excercise I am typing this because a lot more than one minute of time is actually required. Utah hunh? runs for 4minutes.
Yes I have a lot of days when I feel a little crappy, I am still J.O.B. because I haven’t applied your knowledge.
Your “uniqueability” is what you are doing right now. You are a Dane for gosh sakes, and we have been beating the crap out of each other for Centuries, until the Normans shot poor Harold. So have you come along to pick up where Harold left off ? He was a Norseman too. I hope so. Tellman it’s time to turn the tables - cheers
Hello Telman -
Your training is awesome and so is the team you work with!
Since purchasing your products I have started my own blog (which I would never have done before). I have finally figured out what I want to do when I grow up and what my passion is, thanks to your training. I have written my first Ebook “The Astonishing Power of Speed Teams” The Secret Keys to powerful teams today! I will be launching in two weeks and with the support from your training team I will find the Leaders that are looking for what I know I can help them with by following your advise. I daily work on my blog or write sales pages, emails, articles, thank you pages, links, etc. It is not finished but it is coming together.
There is a tremendous amount to learn and it takes daily committment on my part to stay focused however, with your videos, .pdf’s, ideas etc. I now have a great chance of realizing my dreams.
What I need from you now is your continued support in staying current on the new things that are happening online and then training your list.
Your gifted in building excellent teams of people who all have a desire to help others succeed and by building your team you are modeling to others how to do the same. Keep up the great work!

tellman hi i don’t know how i got on you’re mailing list but you look like a smart young man, thats goinging places.
kenneth erkson erkson@jps.net
Hi Tellman, Hope this doesn’t seem weird to you, but I really appreciate your spirit, or may call it disposition. You come across as straight-forward and sincere in your effort to help us while at the same time, make money, and you certainly you not giving us a bunch of ‘hype’. Greatly appreciated!
So many do that not just online but everywhere. You have a delivery way about you that is attractive and easy, even enjoyable to learn from and listen. I am a retired school teacher and really appreciate ‘how you teach’ and not just what you teach. For instance this very video, the great art in the background - very cool:-)
Let me add, I have been listening to online marketing training for a very long time and of ‘all’ the teachers out there, you are without a doubt the most enjoyable to learn from. Plus, I know I am not wasting my time and effort when learning from you. That’s huge in itself.
That aside I definately like your list building training, rate it #1 online. I am sorry to say that I still have not been able to take the time to complete it but I want to. I hope you will offer similar training in the future because I am probably not going to be able to give it the time I’d like to this time around.
Thanks, Tellman!
Tellman…my man!. Your basic list building club has been instrumental in getting my niche real estate training business off the ground. Frankly, the link in this post is a direct result of what you taught me. Keep at it. I am very careful now about what I buy, but I recommend everything you offer. You’re the man. And get a hair cut!!!!
Hey Tellman….
Hope you get this being down so far on your comment listing…. I hope this makes sense to you….
I am within connection with Dan Kuschell whom is not only a great friend, but a great mentor…. It’s funny how you ask what you have asked for it was about 4 weeks ago, I told Dan personally that I had 4 pictures on my wall…. The pictures are of:
- Tellman (you)
- Dan Kuschell
- Alex Mandossian
- T. Harv Eker
These are the 4 people on my goals and accomplishment list to be just like in life! As well as my goal is to one day meet each of you personally which I have done so with T. Harv Eker (have a great Polaroid of that one)…. So long story short, my goal is to be like all 4 of you, be successful like all 4 of you and to meet all 4 of you in a business venture….
Thank you for the opportunity to watch this video and to apply feedback in response to it….
To Our Success,
Philip J. Mutrie
I looked back in my mailbox for ‘Tellman’. The oldest entry is 3/1/07. I’ve deleted some over the last couple years, and I did have a different mailing address before that.
The total is…………..967 e-mails from Tellman. (Or with the name Tellman.)
One of my favorites was one about running, and crashing and coming up bleeding, and then pressing on.
This is what champions are made of.
Setting a goal and persisting. Not giving up, no matter what.
This winning spirit comes out in your writing, along with the gift of a great sense of humor.
My recommendation to anyone is this. Stop watching the news, supersaturate your subconscious mind with positives, and this quote:
”Positive thinking doesn’t always work, persistence does!”
I used to think Tellman was a fast runner because his head was shaved.
Now I wonder, if all that hair was in your head, what’s in there now?
Catch ya later!
Gary
Thanks Tellman for helping me out. I’m a newbie! Thanks for sharing the video from your Dad. It was great! A great energizer! I absolutely loved it!
Thanks for being who you are - simple and open. Many thanks for being willing to help me out. You’re the only one who took a practical step to help me out. If that mentor is still available I’ll take him! My only question is who will pay the bills on the Visa card? At the moment my funds are nil.
Tellman you’re a very generous man who wants to help others out! You have a good heart Tellman and I really appreciate that!
I was on your list for while, then got tired of constantly being pitched to. However, I have since changed my mind with your new traffic program. I also have come to realize that you are a great example of list building and affiliate marketing. I used to not have much faith in affiliate marketing and lost money in my attempts. But if used to share great products or opportunities with people on my list, and I am sincere in this, I see it as an advantage for both of us.
Tellman, you are a gentleman and literally a Gentle-man.
You are a rare bird in this industry: Humane; Kind; Honest; and interested in helping people.
This is my honest opinion; no BS
Tellman, you are a superb actor. You have created this kind of loony looking character called Tellman slyly concealing a razor sharp intellect, ambition to reach the very top of whatever you do, and the grace and generosity to shed your light on others. I listen to what you say because your methods are presented clearly and completely, they work, and provide surprise and amusement at the same time. You have a unique talent. Carry on!
Gail
Tellman great stuff, hope to hear form you more in the near future.
Happy Saturday, and thanks for being open to these answers. I was turned on to you by my son, Nate Guggia, who you spoke to Thursday at Garrett’s office. He’s on his team, and has helped my personal and professional growth incredibly over the last year. Your current journey was probably about making money to begin with, but you asking this question now lets me know that there is definately more to it. And that is what separates you from all the others, the need to continue with feedback from those your associated with, whose lives you touch on a daily basis. Your ability to remain who you are through all your changes is the key to your success and will enable you to succeed further. Your further ability to know that you’re only as good as your last lesson will keep your position secure. So keep the hair and beard, and keep sharing and your future will continue to stay bright. And I’m sure Garrett and his team will be a big part of that!
Hi Tellman-I’m a follower and fan of yours because of the tremdous amount of information you provide. With everything I else I belong to, it sometimes results in an overload of information. But I would rather have to much information than not enough. Also I admire you because you are not afraid to do things “your way”. And you are inovative and a real showman. I like your showman type antics that you use to make your points. You are an exception to the rule and I respect you for it. Keep it up. Your friend. Larry Streeter/

You come accross as a very genuine personality and when you shared your experience with ADHD as a child it touched my heart as I too have a son with that gift, yes gift, as I can see the positive results of what having ADHD can do. You have a drive to help the world not just to be the best marketer online. This shows. Developing trust online is the best way to sustain customers and I think you have it! Besides you collaborate with Mark Joyner and others I have grown accustom to seeing on my marketing lists. Keep up the great work and get some rest
You look tired lol
Tellman,
Joining your list upon the recommendation of another internet guru, I am learning a whole lot more than IM (Internet Marketing.) Like any worthwhile endeavor, what you put into action sets the order and starts the momentum going forward. Waiting until everything is perfectly lined up can yield the “paralysis of analysis.” Hearing from your followers and continuing to touch upon things of importance, I hope you know that showing relationship building is what I most admire.
I have been listening and learning from stuff from you for over 7 months, and although I haven’t made any money yet your down to earth ” I can use my talents to become better no matter what point I start” really does motivate me. Your story of the old computer with the noisy FAN and keeping that to remind you where you came from…That’s CHARACTER and I thank you.
no coment
Tellman, I have already sent you a comment on this video. However, I have two different email accounts, and I assume that is the cause for the duplication.
Nevertheless, I like your brilliance. I’m a little ole lady not from Pasadena and I want desperately to learn how to do Internet Marketing. Maybe, I should find a DISGUISE AS WELL. YOU ARE INTERESTING.
Here’s my best to you. I have spent all my money and maxed out my credit cards, so I must find something very soon.
You are a great entertainer, marketer, and you show what a fine person you are in your emails. Keep it up and God bless you!!! I’m following you.
See you on twitter as soon as I figure out how to do it.
I love the simple, down-to-earth way you have. I’m still learning from you. You’re a great example. Thanks!
Hi Tellman,
Your Funny! Your Creative! Your a great Ninja Bloke! Your a great communicator, motivating and so so so persistant mate!!! Well Done.
Don’t for get to give some help back to a chariety. How about you help me “Help Prevent children from Child Abuse?”, if you want too….. You rock!!! Take care and have regular health checks too for heart decease,just so we keep you here for much longer!!! John H

I stay with you because your fun. I’ve canceled all the other programs I was
signed up for because they were so expensive, and I wasn’t learning anything from them, and they were too staid. I may never learn all of this, but at least I’m having fun trying to. I feel we have a real kinsman ship. We have the same sense of humor. I’m a hypnotist and you use it in your training. Your kind and never scold me, which is the way I always worked with my employees. I was a property manager for 35 years and did a lot of training people. Your smart and honest and I feel like I can trust you. I know your out to make money (who isn’t), but you never push me to get out there and “make me some money”, as the song goes.
So relax and know your valued. Your doing a good job just the way your doing it. I wouldn’t change a thing.
Peggy McLean
Hay Tellman whats up my friend I like all the info
that you send me. allot of the Internet marketers
don’t give the info that you do I think that thy mite
be afraid it mite cut them out of A but lode
of money. so keep up the good work and keep sending
the info and videos there A big help.
Bryan
Tellman, you’re able bring out the best from people and motivate them to do ’something’ , even if it is just smiling. I like that. I noted other people with similar names to yours, like Harris Fellman and my friend Ernst Hellman do also leave an unforgettable and happy impression in my mind. A coincidence? I think not, must be in the name.
I’m an oldie, almost past the use by date, I enjoy making and now teaching people to make wooden cows for kids to sit on, oldies to step on or just as cheerful decorations to smile at. The reason you have me on your list is traffic for my simple website, and it works. Thank-you Tellman.
I feel that integrity is your outstanding quality. I made the mistake of trying to get something from just about everyone and discovered that the Internet is inhabited by a swarm of Piranha. I was much too trusting when I first came to the Internet and so far it has just been money going out. Now, at the age of 75 I am employed 14 hours a day including my commute and I can’t find enough time to complete things that have to happen. I am also very short of any spare cash. I could not hear what you were saying as the sound was very weak. The day is coming when age will overtake my ability to work at the pace that I am now doing and I know that I have to make a go of the Internet. Yes I trust you more than most and I admire your apparant desire to be of genuine help to people.
Good luck toyou and keep up the good work.
Short Answer: Content Value
Long Answer: I went back to see how long I’ve been on your list and I am right about a year. I got on your list because of List Hero. I got on a lot of lists back then, trying to how to make some extra scratch. I went broke first.
After about 6 months I backed off Internet Marketing and got rid of a majority of guru’s lists I was on, but you are one of about 5 that I stayed on and that is due to the value of the content you provide. (Email if your curious about who markets like you.) If I were going to try to duplicate a business model, I would try to copy the way you provide valuable content. Your uniqueness is your ability to provide value, and not push the sale. I save these emails to go back to when I’m ready to use the info or buy.
Peace
The volume on your video is far too low even when I boost it as high as I can and the volume on the video is set high. It was apparently not tested thoroughly.
I am waiting to hear something that makes you stand apart from some of the other persons on whose list I have appeared, I did not ask to be on the list until I was approached through your networking efforts. I am learning a great deal about human psychology and what motivates others by observing the different manner in which each of you approach me with the marketing oitches. It is like watching a poker game with talented players who have diverse personalities. I am hoping to find one who seems to understand my motivation apart from crowd psychology.
Great vid there Telman, as usual you are straight to the point. I have learn so much from you in List Building, thanks Telman
Hey Tellman–First of all I don’t think I have ever told you this; but I am a student of Gary Bacchetti’s(The Gentle Mentor) and have been for about 10 months now. He showed us the video of you and the other 13 guys that you did in Washington, D.C. By the time he showed that video I had already been a member of your list, and had just signed up for the new listbuilding club as a gold member. I get a lot out of the list building club and your emails. However I am on so many lists (I am not counting yours) that it takes so much of my time to read my emails, I don’t have time to do anything else. (by the way you have been sending me double and tripple copies and some times quadruple copies of the same email) Please just send one because I do open them all and read them. You are a very genuine person and your best thing is on listbuilding! Keep it up! What I don’t like is the fact that everybody that I receive emails from (you included) are promoting everybody elses expenseive products that I cannot afford. And if a person buys a product there is always the upsell that is even more expensive than the first product! I know that is how a lot of you “gurus” make your money–but for crying out loud–all you guys must think we are all made out of money! And I for one am sick and tired of it!
So please just stick to what you do best and that is traffic-traffic-traffic-teaching us list building. Do that and I will stick with you forever!
I just would like to say Tellman,that you have great content you keep it real and I listen to you because the way put this in your face be it good or just straight critique a person it’s all coming at ya info no hold barred. Keep up the great work u are making an impact! Doyle Hubbard
I’m new at this Tellman, but I enjoy and appreciate your emails, I read them, save them and hopefully I will get geared up to follow all the stuff I’ve read and be able to understand all that has come my way. And by the way, I like the hair and beard!
I just would like to say Tellman,that you have great content you keep it real and I listen to you because the way you put this in your face, be it good or just straight critiquing a person, it’s all coming at ya info no holds barred. Keep up the great work u are making an impact! Uguy are being heard and felt & your imprint noticed . We love ya Tellman Doyle Hubbard
I count on you for integrity. When something comes up, I ask myself, “What does Tellman think”? You’ve always maintained that integrity. This is not all that common and is very refreshing. I breathe a sigh of relief. Thanks.
Hello Tellman,
Well, the reason I follow you is because you have the Midas touch, and you’re a master at traffic generation, no one does it better. I am a member in several of your programs. I was even a member of your traffic exchange, so I know you know what you’re talking about.
Lak’ech my brother….and greetings from SW Michigan. As a contractor….the poor state of our local economy has pushed me towards the internet in an effort to survive financially.. In my limited experience with internet marketing….it seems that there is as much deception working online, as there has been in our financial, manufacturing, and political sectors. Who can you believe anymore? Not much honor or honesty left out there…After viewing some of the videos on your ADD sight, I had a “gut” feeling about you and your oppportunities. You appear to be sincere, generous, and honest. So I recently joined your list. Hoping my “gut” was right. In addition to that…you live very near to one of my favorite spots…..North Pond, and surrounding woods in Marlboro… Looking forward to learning more from you…….and maybe even making a few dollars….peace…..
Creative spirit-
yet ability to give “reality based” answers
Your sense of joy
Your sense of community
Your willingness to share yourself
and your family and your company
Your willingness to be yourself
Your willingness to push some edges
or just plain knock them down
or maybe just run over them
Your insistence that I should try too
Maybe your sense of connectedness
in lots of different ways (senses) ie.
your PPM - a multi-generational concept
and a futuristic power of the web.
Expansive Entreprenurial Drive
with a great sense of fun!
Everybody has a down day or two. Seems like this is one of them.
Personally, I feel like you don’t care about your appearance - seems like Sonny Bono or the Beatles . . . . Are you on drugs? You sound like it and act like it. . . . . . depression, maybe????
Something missing out of your personal life? a family, children . . . ?
I’m a newbie just starting with your listbuilding club - very impressed with Brian Edmondson. I don’t have any experience with you - so I can’t comment much. It seems you have lots of talent and desire to help others. Sometimes, it helps to just volunteer to help — big brothers, Habitat for Humanity; H
I very much value your opinion. I have been trying to get an answer to my niche questions and have tried different ways through your organization and I keep getting the run around. Go here Go there. Can you help me?
They did not even get to me on the telephone call this past week.. I would have liked to try for the laptop but I am stuck. Would you please go to my website and tell me is it worth listbuilding for and can you give me a little insight before I go any farther?
Hey Tellman.
I am a newbie and I find your videos very interesting.
I have learned a lot for you, and you are sincere
I like how you call & leave an automated telepone call.
Just to inform you the 877 # does not work in Canada.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks a lot
Tellman,
You are an inspiration!. We all need to be reminded of the “rags to riches” stories and you have done it!
I have followed you for several years now although I have not jumped into internet marketing as of yet. But will. I have been successful in my other endeavors and am waiting to find a niche that serves my higher purpose not only to make lots of money.
I love your question Tellman. It takes a humble man to ask this. I don’t have an answer other than you provide another role model in the many pathways to success.
Continue asking the questions, giving a way Ferraris and being a bright light for others.
Thanks, Chris
Hi,
I’ve been reading and getting into your work for about 6 months, the last couple of months on a more focused basis. I am a successful psychologist and have written two books, e.g., Navigating For Success: Passion, Goals and Action (Amazon Press). The second, To Tell the Truth: The Art of Interviewing, will be published in 2010. I have some great products designed around success, talent and accomplishment. I set a goal to reach over 10,000+ people by 2011 to share the opportunity to live passionate and successful lives. I have the knowledge, the strategies and the resources to make that happen. What I need is the vehicle to manifest this goal in real time.
I’ve chosen you as a key guide to help me along this path. I like your thinking, focus, and materials. I see you as smart and able to get things done, so, why re-invent the wheel? You’re my man so let’s get on with success.
Moss Jackson

Overcome Everything!!! I liked that concept and am still endeavoring to overcome everything, hopefully, by following your teachings, I will be able to do that.
Hello Tellman,
I hope you are not having an identity crisis or anything like that now, from reading others comments on my way down here it seems like most of them were mirroring each other. Well that isnt my style of doing things at least not so far, I have been on your list for hell I dont even remember how long now a long time anyway. back when you were clean shaven and had your hair buzzed, in all that time you have never once given me bad advice and from you in a general way I learned to read beneath the surface and get to the real picture hidden beneath the surface. That is why I stayed on your list and also why I signed on as an affiliate recently and for the guy that says he hasnt had any luck with your list building methoods all I can say is keep trying because you will and when you do you’ll wish you had’nt. So keep on doing things just the way you always do Tellman because you are one that I have deemed as the true Master at List Building.
I can tell you that your knowledge about IM is what brings real value to your products but your sincerity in your promortions and the fact that you honestly seem to want everyone to be successful is what makes you special. Your sales copy is always great but your real uniqueness comes from within and makes you very different than most of the other Guru’s out there. Your sincerity comes through in your email campaigns10 fold when you include a video which makes you much more reputable than just about anyone else out there. And that keeps us all on edge when you send out a new email. Thanks for everything. I can tell you that my list has more than doubled since joining the LBC and I can’t wait for the next lesson. I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything I have learned from you. I am a single dad of 2 great kids and am able to provide for them a lot of the things that were unreachable prior to joining the LBC. It truley is a remarkable program. Thanks for everything and keep them coming. Mark.
In your video your were very tired or have bee humbled. I have never bout into your products due to the lack of money. You seem so real and honest but unfortunantly my husband kicked my daughter and I out a few month ago and my savings dwindled quickly so I am just praying something will come along that I can afford. I have found the programs to be very difficult and confusing and never work out. I wished I had wated on finding you. I love one of the U-tubes you sent, just for fun. You seem to be so real.
My day will come and I will try you out because I believe in you as well as my self.
Jamie Specht.
Hey Tellman I thank you for the chance to say a word or two. I won’t stroke your ego or pull your chain just the truth. I think you personally can sell better than the majority. You do not sell garbage and your products are without a doubt very professional. I get a lot of stuff sent to me by your auto responder and that is fine, but if I were to make an observation offering constructive criticism only. I see a lot of product selling without a lot of follow up support. I know that is a lot to ask with the volume of subscribers you have, but you also are large enough to add that product difference to your marketing program. You see there is not enough support on the technical stuff for some newbies to really put everything together that would really boost their success rate and give you an overwhelming amount of true success stories as well as a clear competitive advantage over other marketers. For example I am stuck on the aspect of creating the download page for my free ebook offer for opting in. I do not know how to upload everything to my domain name. It is little things like these that are holding me back. Trust me if I do get that help and actually begin to make some money, I will gladly give my testimony. I have a working squeeze page for my product and I am almost through creating my thank you page with the download link for their free ebook, but I need help putting the rest together. I must say that you have been a great help and inspiration, but too much I feel that I am doing too much on my own even though I am part of the mentoring program. Just a little more help on the technical questions would make all the difference. Thank you and keep up the good work!
Sincerely,
Grateful in Portland, Lyle R. Bakke.
Please excuse my misspelled words. It is late and I am so tired that I didn’t even thing to edit my comments. I don’t think my fingers are pussing the keys very well.
Good luck and many blessings.
Jamie Specht.
I hope to learn how to be a traffic maniac.
Hi Tellman,
Enjoy your emails, videos, and posts. Keep it up and you can’t go wrong.
As I write this I am just awakening from listening to a very hipnotic audio by no other than TK so my remarks may be somewhat skewed in whatever direction.
Every time I view one of your videos I am reminded of times way past when driving in my un-airconditioned Studebaker and viewing the old Burma Shave signs along the highways here in Utah. It really insn’t the Burma Shave signs but signs posted in the same fashion by a local barber by the name of Morry. His favorite medium was to post his message on large rocks or abandoned junk cars. You signify the reverse of his message which was “Hair Today” and “Gone To Morry’s”
Well, I guess that dates me pretty much. Keep up the good work, and I’m almost getting used to your jerky tripodless videos. I,m now engrossed in going over some of your past stuff that I didn’t pay enough attention to.
Hey, if you are interested in doing some serious humanitarion promotional stuff please check out the URL I posted in the Website block. Could have some big health issues and even Swine Flu.
Thanks, Jay
You communicate well. You are knowledgeable, not only in the internet business but in other aspects of life that make for a rounded person. Your persona commands respect
Odd. The questions sounds like a homework assignment for your new coaching program. Will the answers hone your marketing thrust? Clarify and focus your “positioning”? Probably. Otherwise your asking a lot of people who don’t know who they are who they think you are. If your search is for your true self, Tellman, then your asking all the wrong people.
Hi Tellman,
I am looking to you for direction and specific how-to’s at getting
started, listbuilding, just straight, simple doable information.
Incidentally, this video is very clever: an updated version of
a survey, and then a testimonial on top of that. Brilliant.
Keep up the good work.
Bob
I can’t even begin to explain how you’ve help me Tellman. And even though I dropped the List Building Club it was for personal reasons. It was bad timing and I had to start over with everything. Because of you and your team I’m turning things around in a hurry. I plan to be back in the club soon.
Thanks just does not say enough, but thank-you Tellman!
Tellman: WOW! Just think,you have all these people to help you figure out who you are and what unique ability you have.Awesome,Do you wish to be applauded,maybe,no i don’t think so,people appreciate your skills,and knowledge,you have a keen gift to focus and execute.You hit a low then locked yourself in a room,and emerged days later a diffrerent person,The beginning of the Tellman K.quest………………………………………….
Your traits=ability to transform,from shinny bald head looking creature,to long hair, furry face humaniod.Quite common,from three piece suits to comfortable T-shirt-funny looking hat ……………………………………………………..
Character= moral quality,integrity to some degree,can be very eccentric at times. Unusual by some standards, but exceptable in most case and enviorments.Why ‘em i here,because you sent me an email and i do open them on occasion,I bought your List Pro program fiffteen months ago, started but didn’t finish,lost focus,then started Mary Gerstners CMPS program,lost focus again,still have website’s,Tellman ,you were at the right place at the right time, its as simple as that .You got mentoired by Shawn Casey and stepped in to the top arena but they used your skills to futher there business,but never the less you have built an empire,you worked hard and have probaly helped more peolpe than you know,but thats not enough for you,thats the felling i get,your searching for the next level,is ther one,sure there is,the universe is huge, Unfortunatly i’m the opposite, can’t seem to put all this internet stuff together,i have so many tutoriols from you guy’s i have gotten lost,thats why i’m here, you have my answer i just don’t see it ,the internet is so impersonal,some of us can cross the rope brigde,some will never cross it then there are those of us who need to hold someone hand to get across,sounds stupid but true.Take a break if you can Tellman,go underground,you won’t miss anything,the ability to help others like you have is one the greastest actions and feeling a person can achive,to give is so gratifing,One last thing,all take some of your money if you don’t want it.Father of twins,ha ha - IT IS WHAT IS- LIFE -

Hello Tellman,
Thanks for the invite to watch the video. While I haven’t known you well because I’ve studied other areas of Internet Marketing and don’t read much of the stories and your eMails, LOL!(sorry), but I do feel secure in your ability to teach your craft where I can learn some major things. I also feel like I know and can trust you because you are real to me and that comes through in the few eMails I’ve read of yours, plus seeing some of the videos of you talking, etc.
I am looking forward in investing in what you have to offer!
Take care
Robert in Minnesota!
Tellman you are the person with lots of creative energy. you have a magic hand. Sincere fellow always keep contacts with fresh ideas with you. I am really inspired with your options and suggestion you communicates time and again. I prefer myself to be one of your student and silant observer
thanks for your friendly words you communicate to me through your mails.
Your unique ability is the way you communicate and teach your customer. It’s really friendly and easy to follow.
Some professional lighting and sound would be cool.
A soft box key light, a fill light or bounce card, a hair (back) light and the background lit to an exposure that augments the subjects exposure.
A good quality wireless. Be sure to hide the mic properly to minimize clothing noise. Quiet spaces also help.
The cameraman can wave the camera with some slight motion, that’s popular these days.
What you have now is lo-fi video. That’s all fine, yet I think you would be better served by going more middle path. Edgy, youthful, smart yet with higher production qualities. The key is to get the message across and not be distracted by non optimum audio and video quality.
Good job with the business.
Janet and Chris tell the story of you and your old computer where the CD drive didn’t work right… yet you had vision, clarity and voila. You rocked it. Good work!
Blessings,
Ted Cutler
You need to get to know yourself, and NOT rely on what OTHER people think about you. Other people’s opinions of you only reveals what THEIR values are you - it tells you who THEY are, and has nothing to do with who you are.
So you need to get your OWN approval from yourself, learn to know your inner self, and forget about what other people think of you - it’s irrelevant to life’s course. Leanr to APPRECIATE yourself, but make sure you’re 100% comfortable with YOUR values, and if not, then start altering them. Trust your own gut instinct on this - it will tell you whether what I say here is accurate or not.
A clue: all the money stuff - irrelevant to your REAL value….!!!!
Hey Tellman, I have no doubt in your traffic generation abilities what so ever. However I am in Australia and trying to compete with some 20 million or so online marketers from America is like me competing with the whole population of Australia. I do take the time to read your emails and have stored around 80% of them since Nov 08. I figure online marketing is a long term venture and is probably a line of interest that can extend for a lifetime. so I am in no hurry if I make it great if I dont at least I have learned a few things along the way. I have included you as part of the learning process hope that’s okay. Keep up the good work and as I grow then I will be knocking at your door you can count on it.
Kind regards
According to me you are a listener, Tellman. You listen to a person, people, an event, past the surface and right into the heart of the matter. Listening this way allows you to apply your talents and life preparation spot on. Having felt heard, the person, people, those involved in the event, respond with trust and relationship building or openness to furthering a relationship.
How does one keep the space for listening through all times?
I’ve been on your list for about a year, unfortunately by the time I found you I was broke & unable to buy any of your products. Your presentations do entertain me, however. I like to read your e-mails. I believe I even provided you with the name of a movie you were looking for. I didn’t win the little prize you were offering, but you still made me laugh. I wish you continued success & happiness! Feel better about yourself & don’t change anything except your prices.
Lori
I think you have learned to become a good “actor” to help propel your online marketing career and leverage yourself with your JV partners.
I’m a Moderator of TopGoldForum and the reason I watch you:
You are innovative…
Think outside the box…
A ‘caring’ for others, shows on your face…
Am waiting for an idea of yours that hits the mark for me…
Thank you for asking others opinions…
Sally ![]()
{skylady}
WOW, look at that! Can’t even spell my own name. I guess I need to cut my fingernails.
Hope this entertained you.
I’ve been on your list for about a year, unfortunately by the time I found you I’d already been ripped off by others. Needless to say, by the time I found you I had trust & money issues. I didn’t want to be ripped off anymore & I didn’t have anymore money to spend.
Your videos make me laugh, you always provide a bright moment in a pretty bleak time in my life. Stay as your are now, don’t change a thing except maybe the price of your products.
Look forward to hearing from you always.
Lori
well, I have tried to unsuscribe from your emails on several occassions because I dont purchase much and feel guilty for buying elsewhere - however, you’re still here! I’m internet busines illiterate and will tend to look to businesses which can give me more individual coaching with very little investment until I get up to speed. Anyway, the first time i unsuscribed I felt like I was losing a good friend and it acturally ‘hurt’! So what is it about you, that you can do more of, and learn to do even better - well, you’re down to earth, you’re young, and you’re funny. You’ve managed to ‘drop-out’ yet still be connected. I think you have the ability to look straight at all the interference and see it exactly as it is; and you have the ability to form real relationships from the other side of a video. What’s there to improve on?
Well Tellman,
I have to be honest with you. Your always honest with us! So yes I do listen to others too. Sorry about that but I`m just trying to learn as much as I possibly can!! You are a BIG part of my training and I think that is what your calling is… To be honest with everyone and help them as much as you can!!!! You are doing a great job at it too!! Keep it up!
Patty
Hey Tellman - You are the best at being you… and I don’t mean that in some cheesy way. You are willing to be yourself, have fun, and not concern yourself with what others think. By doing this you make it easy to trust you… whereas some IM-gurus take a lofty position where they share very little of themselves. This creates a perception of arrogance… and therefore they are less trustworthy.
The only other guy I would compare you with in terms of that great quality is Frank Kern.
(PS - This also shines through in your team and your customer service too)
I want to experience the dreams you promised me before I joined the LBC. They are dreams that resonate with me and I would continue to be your loyal customer till the dream come true.
love your honesty Tellman Some where along the line I lost the plot and still have no idea how to make any of this good stuff work. I need a coach but can’t afford one but I still love to get and read all your emails.
love the video
Believe I can count on you, when the time comes, to provide 100% + of what you commit to.
Tellman!
You are off the wall. You make leaning fun an interesting. If you can’t enjoy what you do why bother. But more important than that is the step by step video training that you provide. I am not an experienced marketer or computer geek. I need that kind of straight forward and simple training in order to learn. Internet marketing is a very complex and changing world. You simplify it with your video training. Keep up the good work.
Hi Tellman,
So what makes me follow you/what are you best at?
For me, as far as character/personality: you’re “real” Plain and simple - on many levels.
You bring a down to earth, light, yet extremely beneficial set of tools and knowledge to us consistently. So, real, fun, to the point type of communications and because you and/or your team are available - seem to go the extra mile to truly help us succeed, answer our questions no matter how “newbie” they are to the more detailed. You’re accessible to help us succeed.
Thanks Tellman. You have a great day as well!
Hi Tellman, Kyle, Brian Edmondson and Jim,
Without a doubt you guys are the BEST. You come with my highest recommendations. Your listbuilding would leave all others for dead. Your professionilism is second to none.
I could rave on and on about you all but I’ll leave some space for the others. Last but not least of all your support desk is exceptional. keep up the terrific work you’re doing to help everyone in Internet Marketing.
Hi Tellman
Enjoyed your video and have learned by now to expect the unexpected with you! you have a way of cutting through all the “smoke and mirrors” without all the “GURU” Garb!
Tellman - you bring together a very unique quality that people can appreciate. You open doors for people who don’t understand the internet and show them how to use tools in a simple fashion one step at a time.
You bring together the tools for the first time internet marketers to show them how they can get a lot accomplished with little to no money. What you are focused on is helping them build their internet list and assist with internet marketing.
I have used some tools that you have shown me to help with a brick and mortar multi-million dollar project that I have been working on for a couple of years. We have come a long way, but it will still be another year before we anticipate to have a product on the market.
The project has consumed a lot of my time and money, and the economic downturn has hurt a lot of other areas of my business, thus I have not been a good customer to you.
Though Tellman, I just want to say that I have found your work to be very high quality and I appreciate it very much.
Thank you.
Tellman,
I go skiing in Brattleboro Vermont which immediately gave you credibiity.
If a guy from Brattleboro can teach about list building and driving traffic via the internet then all barriers are down.
List building, driving traffic, seems nobody does it better. The lifeline of this business is list building and driving traffic and you continue to provide us quality information.
I have been on your list for a year, possibly longer. I admire your focus….you know what you want and you are able to go for it…..to be honest, I am not able to read all of your communications because of the many demands on my time but because of your open character, honesty and integrity I value your opinions and I keep coming back. Thanks for sharing.
I watch and listen to your teachings wish great interest but despite you being very successful and making loads of money (sometimes in only a few hours) I don’t seem to be able to duplicate what you are doing, and believe me I HAVE tried. Possibly part of my problem is concistancy, because I am in and out of hospital on a frequent basis I start an advertising strategy but loose out when I cant keep it going then everything goes flat and dies on me. I seem to have bought into loads of these set it forget it programmes but even they don’t work. Because of my health problems buy the time I have paid to join the programme I don’t have the money to advertise it properly, I have even borrowed money to buy into 1 on 1 coaching (with an Omni team) but when near completion ended up in hospital again and when I came out was unable to get back in touch with them and as such was back to square one.
One of my big problems with your coaching (and others on occasions) is that living in the UK when I try to get a tutorial cd it gets stopped at customs and I end up with a large import bill which I cant afford so never receive it. An optional download link to these would be a big help. I find your no frills teaching fairly easy to follow but cant afford to pay for all of the programmes. It seems each teaching is linked to yet another programme which you recommend will make money, but I haven’t made money on the first one so have no chance with the second, third etc etc.
Well I have been watching and following you since you had hair as well, and I like the way you seem to be honest, you don’t dress up in fancy suits and clothes..As for what you are asking, hmmm not exactly sure what you are asking, but it seems like you might be down a bit and needing a little boost for your morale? Keep up the videos, even though some times you ramble or are too soft spoken to hear proper, you are at least a real person not just a bunch of words on a web page..
thanks tellman
love the stuff you do… helping people is what god wants all people to do…keep up the good work ..
all the best and god bless..
You sound almost like you are a little lost Like the person who won the lottery and then still wasn’t happy. You have courage and tell it like it is. You give us a wealth of information that is easy and applicable to all aspects of the internet your’re funny honest reachable I think you need some R&R just for you time. Are you in shock about winning the lottery because you have and you are giving back with your knowledge, and willingness to help out all of us little guys. Maybe I should come to VT and make you a nice homy dinner. Well anyways all of the special things we have inside of us make us all individuals and you have found yours and share it, knowledge Thankyou Tellman
I originally joined to learn how to make money on line. Then I tried to build alist and that has been very slow if not at a crawl, but I look forward to more of your ways to build that all mighty list.You also inspire me that us ordinary people of the working world can change our lives. Between what I have learned from you and Shawn and I have taken other courses I now am starting my own small business consulting and coaching business, locally first and I hope to be able to put it on the net. I haven’t had much success online with my web site or starting a list.
… wonder why?
Am I missing something? Anyway, Tellman, several are curious as to your post and you did invite comments and unfortunately sometimes you may get some raw feedback.
Case in point, that Krank Fern fellow. You have to watch him close. He’s a sly one that guy.
LOL!
Take care,
RIM!
I’m asking myself the same question. “Why am I reponding to a picture, an audio and a request”?
Of all the gurus, you have provided valuable information with integrity. It’s as if you feel guilty acheving this financial success and feel compelled to share.
There is something about your life you didn’t like. You are hell-bent to change that and make sure it doesn’t grip you again. Bravo, You made it!
I’d be interested to hear about your parents. Whatever the situation, and whether they know it or not, they sure did a good job!
As for me, I am thoroughly fascinated with the ability to reach the world. In my day you had to have a good average and that took you whever you wanted to go. You had to pass tests and that was easy for me. But making kazillion bucks?? That’s a whole new story.
As I question my motivation to answer you, it becomes very clear that I want you to notice me. Although I have the most important information of all, I can’t reach the numbers of people that you have reached.
Most likely, I am probably jealous. I know how to teach Medicine and help everyone and I’m very good at it. I’m the kind of doctor you wish your family could go to.
But I don’t know how to make money with it. Let’s you and I start with the present Swine Flu scare. Did you know that it is entirely treatable? I’m not talking drugs…. Unless there is underlying illness no one needs to die!
So help me inform everyone you know that Swine Flu and any Flu is treatable. There is so much more when Doctors come out of the pharmacetical box. Help me spread the word and I will love you forever.
I’ve already written a Blog and I made my own web site. Shopping cart, not done (typical!)
Congratulations Tellman and many thanks for the ListBuilding videos, Brain and Pat Marcello
I’ll even trim your hair for free. Not cut…just trim!
Hi Tellman
Personally I think you are a unique person.
For some reason you always make me smile
or laugh.
I enjoy your videos and the relaxed manner
in which they are presented. I never feel like
I am being pressured to buy something.
I think your strongest point is your ability to
communicate in that relaxed manner. It
enables people to trust you and listen to
what you are saying.
Thomas Northrop
You have a sense of homour….
You are bright….
You seem honest…. however, there is something that is still not clear to me, and this blog is not the right time..
Good luck in everything you do
Hi Tellman,
well you are probably no going to like my answer. i chose not to answer the 1st email, and the 2nd by the 3rd i figure it is too much so here i am. if you are simply gathering info so you can improve the service you offer, well thats one thing and 3 requests fo this would still be pushing it in my opinion.
when you ask for an opinioin, i think you should accept after a couple times that some peole have their reasons for not answering.
you are having exisitentional angst, the big WHY well you know that can only be answered by you. if you don’t know who you are, what is your worth and how you add value to the world , well forcing a million people to answer this is not going to fix that for you, because you are still looking without for the answer. your answer is not out here with me or anyone else. it is inside and will be found in the quiet still part of you, where your soul resides, in the whispers of your heart and in the passions and talents that motivate and fulfill you.
enough already. you are good at marketing , whatever, it wouldnt matter what i say , be still, spend some time alone in peace and quiet and ask this question of your higher self and allow a period of stillness and quiet and allow the answers to surface from the only place they can be found, inthe depths of your own self!!! then they will have meaning , then they can fill you and give you the quiet sense of strength and purpose that is untouchable and unknowable to any other and can only be found within your own self.
Dear Tellman, me again, i really am enjoying your training videos from LBC, takes almost all the hard work out of it, im on my 79th Video now, learning daily , some for personal some for just pure enjoyment.
One of things i like to meantion is that when someone on your list posts here or elswhere, there should be an add on somewhere to where a person who has alrady posted clicks on a check mark if they want to recieve a reply, either way you decide to implement your blogs, i will keep getting text saying come and post.
I said what was needed to be said a few days ago, since my postings arent that special i dont usually read them again.
Will see you soon my friend,
be safe! God_bless you.
-Thomas
I do get your emails and find them interesting. You have been doing this for sometime and are obviously a leader in the field of internet marketing. I have not “come on board” due to lack of knowledge with what exactly your organization is all about. I see a few comments on how big money, or any money at all is not being made. I like receiving the information but I sense that you guys are way down the road from possibly helping a new friend (beginner) with your ideas. I have seen many of your competitors run offers on their “systems” for little money $1.00, 7.00, $29.00 etc and then when you sign up you keep having to “invest” sometimes thousands of dollars before you receive all the info and then it doesn’t work.
I’m a bit skeptical and maybe could use some guidance and clarification if you have time. thank you.
Hey there T.K.
My honest opinion … Get a trim man…
Okay, it’s okay to look relaxed an all… but preety soon now you are going to disapear behind all that bush :-)…
Oh nearly forgot to say…you give people the impression that you know what you are doing… and your wealth proves that…so… keep telling it as it is… and people will believe you…
T.W.O.G.
The Wise Old Guy.
Tellman –
As you may know, I have been a freelance writer for more than 50 years and an on-line writer since 1987.
At 70, writing as I do for many of the self-proclaimed GURUs, I am admittedly jaded and more than a little cynical about Internet marketing and marketers.
You may be able to learn more about my perceptions of your “strong points†by considering who else I follow:
Chris Farrell – A relatively new marketer whom I trust implicitly.
Frank Kern – An “old hand†who consistently over-delivers valuable content.
Mike Filsaime – sometimes – for his occasional flashes of absolute brilliance.
With a client list of hundreds, why do I continue to follow you?
• because your sincerity and honesty show through, even when you try to be slick,
• because you always “think outside the boxâ€. You are a carbon copy of no-one,
• because those who work with and for you speak highly of you.
Introspection can be a good thing, but it can also lead to self-doubt. Don’t get so far into yourself that you get lost in there. Just continue being Tellman Knudsen. You are good enough – as is!
Dave
You’re correct about one thing, I am on a lot of people’s list. I think that one of your strengths are that you have done a good job earning trust with your list. I get emails daily, yes daily with free offers. Even though they always seem to offer something for free I do not always open them. I think that you are better at writing emails and consequently getting folks to click on the links to go to the offer page/website. So consequently your strength is traffic. Getting a list, earning trust with your list, writing good emails, getting clicks on the offer links, getting traffic to websites.
Why do I not always open the emails with free offers? Not exactly sure, but I am usually more compelled to open yours. One thing I would like to see more of? More free offers from you! It seems that recently the marketing “arena” has shifted to giving away free stuff to get people’s trust, to get members for their membership clubs, to get more members of their newsletters, etc. Your products often seem superior to the competitions. See there’s another strength. Cheer up pal it’s rainy and gloomy in OH and I haven’t made a 100th of what you have online. I’m
still struggling to get a decent income online. I’m unemployed with 5 kids. But I’m smiling today, because I know that I have been truly blessed. Turn that frown upside down and try a smile for awhile!
Well…Tellman,
I suppose I follow you to see what you’re up to in the hopes of getting a glimmer of an idea of how to make this internet marketing dream work for me.
Pretty selfish reason isn’t it?
Hell, you can’t help out others if you can’t help yourself, if you get what I mean.
Also, Tellman, you’re an inspiration to others who are struggling to understand and develop this independent lifestyle. That’s not exactly how I wanted to put it but hopefully it works.
Take a look at my site man and give me your honest opinion.
Keep it up, Tellman.
All the best to you and yours.
Tellman’s Q.: “Why are you in my list, what are you especting from me, what is that I’m good at?”
A. (style 1): Quite so, why I am on your list ? You haven’t buy anything from me to justify my name on your list .. I will unsubscribe right now .. not.
I won’t. Outthere must be somebody to keep an eye on you …
A. (style 2): I am on your list because I want a piece of THAT chocolate Easter rabbit.
A. (style 3): Why? Well, I’m curious about your look when your beard will turn white.
___
PS : mini-disclaimer - this comment was written with {joke mode on}
You’re on of the most unique individuals I know…
You put yourself out there for everyone to see on a take it or leave it basis. Basically saying hey…here I am with long hair, scruffy beard, blue jeans, shirt hanging out and let people know that you don’t have to apologize for it…you have made TONS of money…and you don’t have to fit inside someone elses idea of how you should look anymore! You give us all hope that once we achieve the type of success you are currently enjoying we won’t have to fit inside the mold anymore either.
At the same time you give us an enormous amount of information on list building and all the associated aspects of doing what we need to do to be successful online so that we too will be able to turn our dreams into reality, and at the same time…you make learning fun. You keep your sense of humor about you.
If I had to sum up why I watched your video today, I would probably say that more than anything else, I just wanted to see what you were up to next, and what can I get out of it by watching your video.
I did get something out of it…
I learned a great way to get feedback from customers or people on your list to find out why they are on your list and what they want you to keep doing to keep them happy.
Great Job…
You Totally ROCK!!!
Have a great weekend!
Tellman, I’ll be honest with you, I look to you for advice and motivation, I have been able to glean nuggets of very useful information from your short videos and other products and that has given me the motivation to keep moving forward in my business ventures, and in my live.
For that Tellman I’d like to Thank You.
r
Tellman-
I have been on your list it seems like forever I wouldn’t still be here if you weren’t making some sort of difference. With that said.
You give and create a lot of value and do it with integrity and honesty. Your marketing style hits home with everyday people, even when you were bald and in a suit. Overcome Everything pretty much says it all and as you say in your PPM course it is up to you to do it, take some action. Your creativity and teaching style are also great, no b.s., which is really appreciated. Thanks dude,and keep it up.
Tellman,
I hope I learn 1/100 of what is put in front of me. Your a blessing to all that are on the ‘net. I’m focusing on a lot of things at the moment. The most important is that I have the capacity to absorb something from you, in my effort to get off SSI/SSDI and have a profitable business. But one step at a time, ’till no one can stop me. I’m also in the beautiful state of VT, hanging out in the capital city (The only capital city without a McDonalds inside)
Gregg
You give massive resources to us Tellman that people
could charge for.
Thanks for all of your honest videos.
Hi Tell
I like like the way you tell it how it is with the hope of how it might be if we take action on what you say a lot of people are out of work and frightend of what might happen you tell them it’s not the end of the world but the door to freedom be brave step through the door to a better life it’s your old boss that has made the mistake by letting you go take hold with two hands and go for it you have nothing to lose there should be more people like you Tell keep it up MIKE in liverpool
I really like your down to earth Vermont style. Love to see you on Stratton Sun bowl one day.The information you give us is great. I have spoken with Devon Brown and others and I find you to be a great resource and mentor of sorts. As an Agel Enterprise team member I am using your techniques and hope to perfect them to explode my business. Information delivered in a friendly non “pushy” way is how I learn best. Thanks for being there.
Barry
Hi Tellman,
I think that the existence of this video is a prime example of why I follow you. You come off as, well, real.
The impression you give is that your are just you, and you’re not trying to be anything but you. You’re obviously brilliant, and know your stuff, but at the same time, you’re just conversational, and fun.
I think it’s mostly the personality you inject. Lots of people out there are advertising the same basic types of products and services, but you are just right there, being you, and not trying to put on some crazy posturing.
You come off as genuine, practical, and have shown on many occasions that you actually care about the follow-up and success of the people you deal with. The “Dear Tellman” interactions are priceless, and lots of fun.
I think your strength is that you have learned the art of being yourself, and being comfortable with presenting that publicly, while at the same time actually knowing your stuff, and walking the talk yourself.
Keep it up. I’m a fan.
By the way, thanks for adding me on FaceBook. Means a lot to be able to connect.
Hi Tellman,
I joined LBC in January as a result of your teleeminar and have found that your approach to training with intructional videos is very good. I am a “show me” person and have been able to follow and apply the videos without a great deal of questions.. My biggest problem has been in defining a niche that I feel I can market.
I joined LBC because I suddenly found myself unemployed and in need of a means of support. My previous employment required that I travel and that kept me away from home most of the time, only getting home for a weekend here and there. I knew I didn’t want to travel anymore, so I turned to the internet as a possible way to build my own business. Your brand “Overcome Everything” was encouraging and a challange to me and during the trial month of LBC, I felt you really did want to help me succeed. Your have presented an upfront honesty and trustworthiness that is rare in today’s society. I feel that you have built your own company with ethical and moral standards and that is important to me.
LBC has great content, your emails and vids are encouraging, funny when they need to be, and show your fun, unpredictable personality.
Your are doing a great job and “Overcome Everything” really is an expression of who you are.
Thank you for being you.
Tellman!
Boy do I know where you are at! You know, you were the first personality I came across when I started building my Internet marketing businesses. Your program was instrumental in providing the knowledge base to continue. At first, you were this bald icon in the corner of the offering, then your were this guy in a suit, bald and all, telling me about list building. I next ran across the “New Tellman” and was intrigued by the metamorphosis that had taken place, not only in your business, but in the man…you, Tellman!
I also completely related to “the double beep” message, and do every time I read it. It takes me back to a time I never wish to revisit again! I knew, after reading that email that you “get it!”
So, everyone has their idiosyncrasies, I definitely have mine and you have yours. They make us what we are, they separate us from the herd, and the make you TELLMAN! The guy who turned a double beep into a triumph! Because you did it, it helps us to believe we can too! And your great product base doesn’t hurt either!
So, Tellman, you are the total package…original and genuine. I applaud your programs and I applaud your success. Most of all? I applaud the man!
John Zajaros
Oh Tellman, Tellman… It seems to us that you have a great business and a great life-style. Why do feel you need validation from any of us? All you do is try to make us as successful as you are. Everytime you find something new which you find really useful and profitable, you tell us about it. We can follow in your footsteps. I tend to think, if Tellman hasn’t tried it, it’s probably not worth it.
I think from your video, the truth is money isn’t everything. But once you have it, you start to think what else is there? If I were you, I’d start thinking about what is really important to you as a person. If you’ve already reached some of the goals you had for yourself, it’s time to set new ones. Get out from behind that screen and meet some new people who do other things rather than just earn money online.
Go visit some underprivelidged country and learn the value of what you have.
Tellman,
I like the impact you have all over the world, plus your name is mentioned often by other top guys. I have been a member of your list building club for over a year i’ve just scimpt through it and i am sure once i do take full action things will begin to happen for what i signed up for in the first place to build a list. Your the best at what you do…simple.

Hi Tellman,
You are a “man of a thousand traffic”
Change Is.
Sometimes when you run to fast you not only miss some of the opportunities since you passed them bye.
Sometimes when things seem to be going so well your inner self may say where am I and what am I doing.
Is there something else that I can do?
Is there something else I should do?
Change is always. Sometimes it feels like a brick to the head, a quickening of the heart rate, heavier breathing, it matters not some thought is either knocking at your door, or you missed something in what you have done. Important, only you and time will determine that.
What you or I or any feels during these times can occurs when our thinking changes or someone else’s thinking brings to us a shift (change) in our usual perceptions.forces us to make a change. The world around us can only changes us through how we allow our perception of ourselves to change in relation to the external world.
A good example is the changes in many persons as a result of the “Swine Flu” and its consistency in the news and conversation. Similar effects on marketing produce the affect of buying a product.
The feelings of separation, that is, between that which you perceive yourself to be and that which you think or maybe think you should be
is normal. Not having such moments, well we don’t need to go into that now, just keep a lookout and a distance from those who do not have moments of retrospection.
It is like being a great cook but totally not a good clean up person. Not to say any one needs to do booth for there are many that can clean but few who can cook.
Taking advice from “Core Influence,” you may find you either missed something you wanted to do in addition to what you have done or you are looking to grow in a different direction. Maybe even go back and re-structure some of the past, weather it be courses and procedures or to pick up something or to make a clean closure on a personal level. Even if it is a few small point(s) that may have been missed that will make a program(s) stronger.
The key is to not waste energy on the feelings, use the emotion and find your direction and proceed. As you have mentioned this to a few good friends. Throw the their ideas and yours out on the table (Universe), sorta like the Shaman does for a reading as to what to do.
A persons background (primarily past activities of the person) can have a tremendous affect on how one views change. Saint Paul for example was really unsure what was going on. A shift from killing persons of a particular belief to becoming one of the same belief was a real brick to the head moment (he may have been tormented days, weeks or months who really knows).
New products, new places, new things etc., not all of which require money but they do require a decision with action. As we all know there are billions of thought leading to millions of decisions by billions of people every day that never see the proverbial “light of day” do to inaction and follow through. And for a majority of those it is by the Grace of God most do not.
I passed your web sight on to someone who may contact you. Not having been in your moccasins I figured such assistance if provided “can’t hurt.”
Keep Low and Slow (low riders “don’t burn no gas!”).
Your are an “INSPIRATION” ! I spent 3/4 hr waiting for your U tube to download, then it DISAPPEARED! Thanks for the DVDs, Your help-filled Approach, Attitude and ATTEMPT to get my first Dollar Income on Line!
I am in OVERLOAD, Have to cut ALL subscriptions and DOLLAR OUTGOINGS to you Tellman, Shawn, Justin, Frank, Wellman, Andy, Joel, Russell, Gary, The Jackal, Ewen, Dan, Mike G, Armand, Eric and the LIST goes ON & ON, but I will NOW HAVE-TO STOP and RE-GROUP. Have spent ALL of Pension,s Savings trying to support my $200 a week income and failed! I will now “review” stacks of GOOD SUPPORT SENT, GOOD-STUFF not yet applied. One Problem I am so “overwhelmed” I do not KNOW how to STOP OUTGOINGS. THANKS to you Tellman, you have “re-deemed” the rest of the good Gurus who also have tried to help Ian Pettitt in OZ make-it through on the Net with not enough Pension to get a Fast Connection, Good Computer and TIME TO APPLY a WAY TO THE “TOP”. I will be back when I GET MY FIRST INCOME!! Ian.
because you’re reputation is as one of the best.
Tellman …. I have spent a lot of money on different online programs …. the key word is SPENT ….. with your program “The List Building Club” this is more of an investment …. in a program that works A,B,C … if you can follow the video and implement …. it’s great ….
Tellman, you’re FINE! I’m the one in need of major adjustment and I appreciate your patience in helping me making those adjustments.
I also love your action figures and young innocence.
Keep up your love for people!
V
Your lessons are great, I am learning a lot from you. I work 2 jobs, have no time to get myself off the treadmill, then I joined the Listbuilders club.
Slowly I am learning and I hope one day to make some money.
Thank you Tellman for giving me a light at the end of the tunnel.
well Tellman. i don’t really know you at all. i get your emails and i usually read them. out of curiosity as much as anything. i downloaded some of your free “list building” videos (squeeze page stuff) a few months back and they were comprehensible even to a bozo like me. i like the “over the shoulder” view of how you do things in an idiot proof a presentation . this gives me the mechanics of how things are done and i can then work on the creative element to provide my own usp. i bought the arbitrage conspiracy course in jan. really good stuff. but i always like fresh angles. i think you can provide this. but before i part with any hard earned money i have to feel convinced that the seller is the real deal. by giving me stuff free as you have, this builds the trust necessary to become a believer. us newbies need to see some cash from our efforts to know that it can happen for us too. as a guru that is where you have to deliver. spell it out clearly for us, don’t charge us much to begin with, let us get a “taste” of the rewards then reel us in buddy ’cause by then we’re hooked.
suerte
Tellman,
I’m sorry that I don’t have a comment for you. I am new to this and
I don’t know how to respond.
Good Luck.
Hi Tellman,
I think you are fun, out-of-the-box, generous, vulnerable and unconventional.
You are daring and downright determined!
I think your unique ability is to inspire others to take action.
I count on the truth from you, Tellman. You show me the real way.
It is your personality that let’s us know we can make it and be ourselves.
You make me feel comfortable, capable and willing to try things that
I might not have otherwise attempted.
I love the stories in your newletters. I save them to a folder.
When I first saw you, I thought is this guy for real? The long hair and beard. But after watching your videos and receiving your emails, I realized that it doesn’t matter how you dress or whether you have long hair it’s the quality that counts. Slowly I am picking up on what you are saying. It’s just bringing it all together to make it work for me. Thanks.
Like the author who wrote a book - if you’re going to take the time to say
something to me - I feel you deserve my time to listen. But like everything on my computor - I feel like it’s ” Information Overload ” . It seems like
everytime I think -”maybe” I’ve finally found a “real” mentor - they refer me
to another “associate” with a program that they feel will benifit me, and before you know it - I receive 75-80 emails a day - full of videos to watch - that teach me nothing - that are really just infomercials designed to sell me another expensive program that teachs me nothing. Today - it seems my time is spent all day reading emails - with no time to actually
learn anything. BUT - I KEEP HOPING - and I keep reading. INSANITY-
doing the same thing - hoping for a different result
hi tellman your videos are great i watch yideos usually first. before reading.
A picture is worth a thousand words so you can only imagine what a video is worth.
your videos show you are real, honets and strait to the point, you teach well and is working for you.
I watch you to try and get a concept of how i can use the internet my self,I have at least 3 web sites i have know idea how to use or set up,verry little money and not much time.
I drive a truck 13hrs a day sometimes more & less but my days are full so i watch you when i can, i have probably 60 emails i haven’t opened yet, most are out dated. most likely. my health is droping being a trucking slave not much rest.
I tried the credit card aproach and am 15,000 dollars in the hole and have lost 3,000 dollars in intrest trying to get something to work for me that i understand
your style of teaching intrests me but i am too broke to afford your offerings.
i am looking for some one who can show me physically how to make some money on line and how to set something up that works and i can see work in front of me.
I learned how to drive by being showed, explained, then i did it ,with some one by my side to guide me and make sure i didn’t crash (when you crash its all over) there goes your self esteme and confidence. I don’ know any body who had to only read a book then bought a new car got in it and drove the first time and got their licence, all at the same time with out damage.
i am proud to say i have been driving motorcycles cars trucks buses for 32 years i had a good teacher my life depended on it and my life depends on it now!
perhaps you can help some one like me there are alot of my kind out here.
Always useful, funny, and out of the box. Keep it coming.
Got to keep, keeping on. Thanks for the sincere help and its got to be Video replacing Email and as seen your right on top.keep it up!
Why did I join the listbuilding club? To make money is the obvious answer but more importantly it was to be able to once and for all create freedom for myself and my family by building an online business. I have a vision of one day owning a therapeutic recreational ranch for the terminally ill and disabled - a dream virtually unattainable working a day job for someone else - I decided on the internet, and choose you because you provide a ton of content, you come across without all the hype and I believe you genuinely try to help others attain a level of success they desire. You made me realize its all about helping others get what they want that automatically starts bringing back to you what you want. There is a ton of stuff online and what I came to realize was that you have to focus on ONE thing, monetize that one thing, then add the next piece. What I wish you would do, more than anything else, is to relay PRECISELY what you did (like each day) with exactly what you did, and how exactly you did it when you generated $800,000 in sales your first year. I would venture a bet that most people who join want to monetize fast and you obviously know how to do that - again, I am now fully committed to my vision (no more day job) and I have a family to provide for - its attaining the freedom and still staying afloat during the process that I believe you can bring to the table and I’m counting on it.
Its your willingness to give that makes you a great mentor!
I like your approach - However what I do NOT like is the inability to communicate with “so called Guru’s”
I am an adult student studying computing (National Diploma, Level 5, New Zealand) In my 3rd year now - I love programming. I am also in the process of setting up my own website, it’s not online yet tho!
I am on your list to see what info is offered (being a student means I am broke alot) but I too have near on 35 years in Marketing, and I am good at it - I have a certificate for small business management.
I too am ‘eccentric’ , don’t like BS most of all prefer honesty - Sadly that is lacking in most Entrepenuers! You have a fresh approach -that is what makes you Unique! But please, I get about 3 or four of your emails (same subjects) a day and One is sufficent, can you get that sorted out?

Hi Tellman
If I understand your looking for the understood provision received.
With these call counts you will hone your futor offerings in order to
give the people what the people want,Right!
After reading a few responces most comments are relative within deity
context. Not actualy answering your plee? I see things a little different.
When you get to the higher parts of the percieved journey with
those that stayed with you and they reward you guru status you wonder why?Leaders have a great responsabilitie usually a lot different from what they currently are snared in. The answer you realy want is not niche
market but spiritual fruit that we all need others to paint vivid pictures
to us that scream beyond our sunglassed bondages.
A former Presidents quote comes to mind.
If you find the thing you like to do you never have to work another
day in your life?

Hey Tellman. You have a unique ability to teach with simplicity and give the REAL answers to those who don’t know what they don’t know. Invaluable!
Hope you’re doing extraordinarily well, my friend…
Great and informative video.
Thanks for all that you do. You are what I call an “Encourager”. You are very good at calling people to action and challenging them to reach higher and not settle for less. Thanks for keeping me acountable and calling me to do my best - Always. I Value your work.
Tellman, here is a side note: over the past four weeks, I improved my Alexa ranking from 8 million on April 2nd, 2009 to 1.5 million on May 2, 2009, following some tips you gave me and then some. Here’s my site for proof: Christian Business Ethics

Trying to build my list.

Tellman,
If this is market research I think the best that I can achieve from your listbuilbing club is to map a strategy and get an organized system to create the traffic required to have a successful on-line business. If you are doing a little “What is my purpose in life?” then maybe You might benefit from reading “The Purpose Driven Life” by Rick Warren.
I am a newbie to the online opportunity to make money. I have reviewed a number of programs but none of them have come close to giving the detailed approach to the actual process as you do!
I am still trying to find my niche but with your help and the LBC I believe I will be able to get something going.
Your strong suit is being able to convey information and impathy to those you are trying to help. Thank you.

Hi Tellman,
Since I’ve been trying without success to make money on the Internet for almost five years now and I am going backwards with my savings. I would really be appreciative of assistance to get things up and running. I’ve just sign up with Liz Tomey for four membership sites so I hope there is no conflict with your offer should I be chosen.

I apologize if I didn’t quite understand you T, but are you selling these case studies or allowing us to follow them for learning purposes? I’ll lose respect for you if you pull a Brunson on us and slap it in a DVD for us to buy. Well maybe not all but I’ll be ticked.
sorry miss post
Well i think this a great!
BC it’s cristal clear, straight forward and very precious system offered to the world by “overcome(absolutely) everythinng.com and despite some difficultys great deal of passion and soul is here forever. That is what really matter.
Hi Tellman,
I like your blunt and eccentric style, I like the fantastic free information you give away (mostly through teleseminars), I like your listbuilding videos. Most importantly, I believe your listbuilding club is probably the most essential membership club out there since the money is in the list - and the start for every aspiring internet marketer.
We are about to launch our website - final finishing touches - and will then be ready to start building our list.
I also think your JV club on NING is awesome, you are a very creative internet marketer!
Best
Marco
Tellman,
I am totally captivated by your method of instruction. The multitude of lessons and the means by which I have to learn from them is incredible and unlike anything I have experienced to date. From the “awesome” videos and the “easy to read” PDF’s to the “exactly what you need to do” check lists, I am never more than a click away from learning what I need to know to get my self on track. I desire nothing more than to one day be in your shoes (so to speak) helping other’s gain the success they so trully desire and your instruction is the means for me to get to that point in my life. That is all I want and your the only one I feel I can TRUST to teach me how.
So, for me to answer your questions honestly, I would have to say that I TRUST you is why I am on your list.
I would have to say that your method of teaching is what I feel your very talented with.
And I would have to say that my hearts desire to be so much like you is what keeps me hanging so tightly to your shirt tails.
I just want to thank you for this opportunity you have offered up for me Tellman. I wish for you to know that I cherrish your teachings and I work very hard to follow your footsteps as you have instructed for me to follow them. And Tellman, I hope to one day meet you in person so I may thank you my self, one on one.
Sincerely,
Brett Burr

The reason why I’m here is because of the visions that I’ve had in my mind. I have goals to hit and there is no time to waste. It has led me to you. Why do you bring value? Well, you have more experience, knowledge, and other attributes that I can pick from you. It seems that you have succeeded with your online business or businesses, something of value. Its like spending time with a Hall of Famer, something positive will always come out of it. I want to retire my mom and proof wrong everyone that doubtsme.
[...] Now, how can we know that these 20 traffic sources all work, and that they all can be profitable. Well… we can not really be sure unless we try them ourself. I do, on the other hand, trust Tellman’s promises. I have been a customer of many of his courses for a while now, and I can testify that he is a man of integrity and he likes to stick to cold hard facts. He recently asked his subscribers to give their honest opinion about him. You can have a look at the comments here. [...]
Tellman;I believe that wanting to help people is a great thing,but I’m still waiting for you to make contact with me so that I’m able to make contact with you or someone representing you so that I can explain a few things to you.I wrote on the blog explaining that my speakers aren’t working and that I wasn’t allowed to download the report that you mentioned was available.This is my second time telling you this …….Rich
