eBay Live Success Week Winners & Guru Interviews Announced PART 1

Howdy,

WOW…so many email entries were sent in for the eBay Live Success Week Contest (in case you missed it, you can read the information on my blog here: www.myspace.com/janelleelms

 

I asked the following contest question:

Besides our incredible PowerSeller Raymund Chua of Buy Direct Specialists (www.janelleelms.com/buydirect), who are my top 4 guest speakers I have for you during eBay Live Success Week (June 4th – 8^th)?

 

My favorite guess was Pierre Omidyer – wow, that would be super impressive if I could get him.  But he is a tad elusive.  However, you all gave me some great ideas of who to start working on next!!  My dear friends Chris Malta, Rob Cowie and Mike Enos will be delighted that you honored them with guesses for rock star status.  Some of you came SO close with 3 of the upcoming guru speakers…but we have a winner…well actually…

 

Congrats go out to TWO winners….I know, I said one winner, but I am a softie.  These two between them probably sent in 300 entries – LOL…they wore me down.  Their winning entries came in within moments of each other AND, they had both been super close from their very first guess.  The last of the 4 was the hardest because he wasn’t listed on the eBay Live speakers list.  HUGE congrats and $1000 in Success Coaching go out to:

Wendy Siegel of http://stores.ebay.com/WebWendy  AND

Edith Russo of http://russosrealm.com/

 

Nice job representing for the women!!

 

As I mentioned, these were some tough interviews to get…all of them were going to be speaking at eBay Live, but eBay has the money to get those kind of names.  Plus, not everyone is going to Live this year AND I will be speaking at the same time as many of these rock-stars.  So I wanted everyone (including me – lol) to get a chance to hear the people who have the information to profitably change your business and your world.

 

Here were the clues given, as well as the correct answers:

Guest #1 – ‘The Carving Studio’ (where he was working prior to eBay), 50 something cross-dressing, milk farmer, eBay Legend (what he called himself on the first forum group) – Uncle Griff or Jim Griffith 

 

 

Guest #2 – ‘Remarkable’ (the term Seth uses to define what is needed in your business), blogger, dip (his latest book), recently chosen as one of 21 Speakers for the Next Century by Successful Meetings, best-selling author multiple times over – Seth Godin

 

Guest #3 – ‘Talkers’ (what Andy says you need for your business), has advised TiVo, Ralph Lauren, Sprint, and Kimberly-Clark on their marketing strategies, hosts a roving dinner for interesting people, GasPedal, taught at the Wharton School of Business – Andy Sernovitz of Word of Mouth Marketing

 

Guest #4 – ‘Sticky’ (how John explains how your marketing should be), his powerful & informative blog has earned him awards from Forbes, Harvard Business School and Marketing Sherpa, his profitable marketing tools have received accolades in Forbes and Entrepreneur Magazine. – John Jantsch of Duct Tape Marketing

 

I hope you’ll be as delighted and thrilled as I am at the incredible line-up we have for eBay Live Success Week.  You’ll want to get registered for these amazing interviews ASAP…press releases are going out on Tuesday to the ‘rest of the world’.

 

PLUS, since I noticed when I was doing the clues that all of the powerhouses for the podcasts that week were men, I rounded up some amazing women entrepreneurs for this week!!  Plan to have your Success World rocked over the next 10 days!!
