So here I am, 58 hours after launch.  I’ve actually slept a little, here & there, and have even remembered to eat a couple times!  Stunning!

Speaking purely from my own perspective, I think the launch was a smash success.  It had a few hiccups, but I’ve been told by those who have launched before that they’re standard ones - merchant account issues, registration glitches, some compatibility issues, etc.  But all in all, everything went fantastically.  My server never glitched a bit even with all the video I was pushing (huge props to SLHost!!!) and I’ve got a couple hundred users now cranking away with LPGen.

This is truly one of my personal proudest moments (that might seem sad to some but hey… ;)).  Something that I have created our of a whole bunch of pieced together lines of code, is being used by hundreds of people and in at least a half dozen cases that I know of personally, is making them great money right away.  This rocks!!

I’m not sure where I will go from here, but as you can probably imagine, I’ve already grabbed the attention of a lot of “name” folks, and am getting asked to speak at seminars, etc.  I enjoy that kind of stuff (I used to demo software at tradeshows as part of my job) so will probably take them up on it at least occasionally.  Plus, I saw a few “guru” names come through on my shopping cart too, so I’m definitely on the radar, so to speak!

This is so far beyond what I expected, I don’t even have words to explain it (oh who am I kidding - of course I have words! LOL).  It’s been a blast!  A totally exhausting, stressful, sometimes nerve-wracking and draining, blast!  But things have settled into a pretty good rhythm, support is being handled, and I just have a few weird autoresponder issues to sort out (I’m used to Aweber and 1ShoppingCart is a very different beast) and everything will be smooth sailing.  The user forum is starting to bustle with questions and helpful tips, and at least one other marketer has already sent out an email with a cool trick he realized he could do with LPGen.  I love when people take things and make them do stuff they weren’t really intended for!

So anyway…  Thanks all who followed and joined me on this ride… there will be many more to come!

WHEW!!

Holy cow has today ever been a roller coaster.  I wasn’t sure what to expect, as for all I knew I’d sell 2 LPGen licenses today.

Well, that sure didn’t happen!

The first 100 licenses all SOLD OUT in 12 hours flat!

It’s been a whirlwind around here of answering questions about LPGen, handling support tickets for some stray shopping cart issues, answering forum questions, getting my support team up to speed, talking with my merchant account and shopping cart support people…

And amidst it all - my server DID NOT CRASH ONCE!  Even with all the videos I was streaming, there was not a single server outage.

Not bad for the first ever product launch of an unknown product creator, eh? 

OK so, the price of LPGen has now officially risen to the intermediate point of $497.  There will be 200 more licenses sold, then it will go up again to $597 for the final 200 licenses and the doors will close.

So think about it carefully.  Listen to Gauher in his interview. Decide for yourself if you could benefit from reduced bids of as much as 41% on your PPC campaigns (that number came from a very happy LPGen user by the way and if it sounds like LPGen is for you, I suggest you grab one of the next 200 licenses and start putting LPGen to work for your business, NOW!

As for me… well it’s been a very long day and I probably should go to sleep, but hey - I’ve got new customers to support!  I’ll sleep when I’m dead!  Yeah that’s it!

Always The Best,

Jonathan

What else is there really to say?

I shall now attempt to manage 6 hours of sleep.  Probably be lucky to get 5.  Today is going to be one heck of a day!

Jonathan

Past Midnight.

Much to do.

Launch in 36 hours.

Back to work!!!

Jonathan

This will be going out to the world on launch day, but you can watch it now first. Enjoy!

See the interview here!

UPDATE: I had to switch to an edited-down version of the interview. The whole thing is 24 minutes long and would KILL my server with so many people watching it! The full version will be made available to those who opt in to my list.

Sorry, you don’t get to see my pretty face tonight… I’ve been doing videos and staring at this screen allllll day long and my poor eyes & voice need a rest!

Jonathan

P.S.

I still can barely believe what Gauher says about LPGen in this interview. If it were possible for me to be speechless, I’d be speechless!

So I am so absolutely and completely wiped out right now from going non stop all night every nigh, that I don’t think I’m going to get to a video tonight.

BUT… I did just conclude (well, a couple hours ago) an interview with Gauher where he let me record his desktop as he showed me his Google & traffic/income stats on this campaign he brought back to life with LPGen.  We were supposed to go 10 minutes, and it was 25 minutes before we actually finished!  He’s totally excited about what this is going to mean for his PPC campaigns, and I’m totally excited to get to be a part of it all.

I’m rendering out the final camtasia now (had to merge the audio from the phone call with the video on the computer) and this is for sure going to lead the LPGen sales page.  I couldn’t have written a better testimonial if I’d tried.  WOW.

So that’s all for tonight… my eyes are blurring way too much to get anything else done!

Tonight’s post is to share some more real world results that a user, Ben from www.ben-tan.sg, just sent me, and to comment about something that was in yesterday’s post’s comments, about LPGen getting “banned” by Google. Enjoy!

I’ve been on pins & needles all week waiting for this… and tonight I finally got what I’ve been waiting for. Check this out, it’s fantastic!

For some reason the audio-video-sync gremlins have been plaguing me tonight (oops, make that this morning as it’s now 1am!) and I just didn’t feel like trying to fix them, so… you’ll just have to deal with me looking like I’m in an old dubbed Kung-Fu movie.
