If you’re not familiar with Jeff yet, here’s more about him, but first one word of warning —
Important! When reading Jeff’s bio…
Don’t think Jeff is “just” an article-marketing guy and that you won’t learn anything new. You’d be mistaken and would miss out on something really special.
I scribbled notes like crazy during our call. Jeff is an excellent teacher and I’ll be listening to this interview again to grab nuggets that were flying by.
ok. Back to Jeff… 🙂
Jeff Herring
Discover how to create a prospect-pulling article, repurpose it into multiple marketing messages and multiple information products in the least amount of time.
No matter what niche you’re in, to be wildly successful on the Internet you need five things:
- content
- traffic
- list building
- marketing messages
- products
Article Marketing provides the answer to all five needs, faster, easier and with less overall human effort.
Jeff Herring AKA The Internet Article Guy is an internet marketer specializing in article marketing, teaching Internet marketers, authors, speakers and self employed professionals to write and market articles for more prospects, publicity and profits, and to create multiple streams of income with their articles.
Jeff’s students and clients discover how to write more articles in less time, get their information in front of more eyes in as many consumable forms as possible, create a massive web presence, build a highly qualified and highly responsive list, and create multiple information products to build their information empire with their articles.
When Jeff turned his article marketing expertise on the internet, he created a flood of traffic to his web sites that he could not stop if he wanted to, and he has assured me he doesn’t want to.
Here’s a picture of me and Jeff together that was taken at the NAMS: Niche Affiliate Marketing System Conference in Atlanta .
Jeff and I need a new pic, but that’s us chatting over breakfast and me drinking my coffee – YUM.
Be sure to listen to the entire interview. It’s another great one. Yes, I feel very blessed. 🙂

Quotable moments:
- Articles are simply samples of your expertise.
- Jeff loves to teach “easy, simple, do-able stuff” – There’s no need to overcomplicate things. But, don’t make the mistake of underestimating simple. It’s the best stuff.
- Make sure anything you say “Yes” to is scalable.
- Choose a niche and then go an inch wide and a mile deep before you even think about expanding.
- Your niche needs to meet the following three criteria:
- 1. Something you’re passionate and knowledgable about.
- 2. Something that can make a difference in people’s lives.
- 3. Something that people are willing to pay for.

Another great interview Nicole.
Jeff, I enjoyed hearing you lay out your strategy for starting over with no website, no product and no list. Thank you for breaking it down into a step-by-step process.
Jeff, I always enjoy hearing you explain how to do things. You always make it so clear and have an easy way to do it.Thanks for more good information

I’ve been enjoying listening to him and others on the NAMs audio tapes I purchased. GREAT info. I’m really looking forward to listening to this and very much appreciate all of your interviews and info! Thank you! 🙂
Glad to hear you enjoyed the Nams audios. Hope you will join us in Atlanta in August.
Every time I hear Jeff talk about article marketing I learn some new tidbit and have one of those ah-ha moments! He just makes it so simple and takes all the fear out of it.
Thank you for pointing out that it’s ok to focus on one area niche. So many people suggest for multi-streams of income to have a lot of sites. That was the direction I was headed but I can tell already. It’s too time consuming and draining.
My niche is subcontracting and software those two niches will take me very far.
I’m waiting patiently for some more of your weekly podcasts. I learn so much from your guests and yourself.
