Hello from the Crowne Plaza Galleria at the Insider Secrets to a Google Friendly Website Workshop in Manila, Philippines!

Simon Leung at Insider Secrets to a Google Friendly Website Workshop in Manila, Philippines

The Insider Secrets to a Google Friendly Website Workshop is my first collaboration with PowerMax, my new business partner in the Philippines.

For our premeire project, the Insider Secrets to a Google Friendly Website Workshop trained attendees how to set up their websites in the way that is compliant with Google’s policies.

As a result of building a Google friendly website, it will have a higher Quality Score and better overall performance with Google AdWords and organic Google search engine rankings.

In addition to myself, I have also asked my Singaporean business partner and good friend, Fabian Lim, to travel to Manila with me to share some of his own content as well.

As the leading authority in Pay-Per-Click and search engine optimization in Asia, Fabian Lim trained on those topics during two separate training sessions at the event.

However, as you may have expected, the attendees wanted more…

So by popular demand, Fabian Lim and I will be returning to Manila later on this summer to conduct not just one, but two, additional live events – One on Google AdWords, and another one on Search Engine Optimization.

We look forward to coming back to Manila, Philippines this summer!

Hello from the Leelawadee Lagoon Resort at David Cavanagh’s Getting Started On The Internet Workshop in Pattaya, Thailand!

Simon Leung At Getting Started On The Internet Workshop

During the past few years, I have spoken at over 100 events all around the world, and David Cavanagh is the only trainer I know who actually runs a workshop for 10 full days!

Needless to say, his Getting Started On The Internet Workshop is one of the most comprehensive, especially for newcomers of the Internet looking to get into the business.

Throughout the 10 days of the Getting Started On The Internet Workshop, David Cavanagh takes his audience by the hand from the beginning to the end of a business building process, all the while enjoying the fun and festivities that Thailand has to offer.

Along with his team, Sene Lafeta, Roger Bourdon and Wolfgang Hofbauer, David Cavanagh assisted a packed room of students with their businesses, websites and Internet Marketing strategies.

Besides myself, additional experts were also invited to share more specialized strategies at the Getting Started On The Internet Workshop, including Fabian Lim, Mal Emery, Pat Mesiti, Kate Engler, Quentin Brown and Shane Goldberg.

If you haven’t had the chance to experience one of David Cavanagh’s 10 day trainings, I highly recommend that you attend his next Getting Started On The Internet Workshop, scheduled for sometime this year.

Hello from the 12th floor of the Wisma MCA, where Fabian Lim and I are wrapping up our Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia!

Simon Leung at Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop Malaysia

As we always want to bring as much value as possible to our customers, we invited along a special guest speaker to present to the attendees of Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop Malaysia.

Fabian Lim, Patric Chan and Simon Leung at Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop Malaysia

As you can see in the photo above, our special guest speaker is none other than Patric Chan, my Malaysian business partner, International speaker and one of the top Internet Marketers in the world.

Patric Chan also happened to be in Kuala Lumpur at the same time because he was conducting his own event, Affiliate List Profit Workshop, which also happened to be at the same venue as Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop on the 13th floor, just one level above.

To return the favor to Patric Chan and his own customers, I also agreed to speak at the Affiliate List Profit Workshop, so that we could both mutually benefit each other’s event attendees.

Since both of our events were running simultaneously, we needed to plan our schedules accordingly, which meant that I actually had to skip lunch because we presented at one another’s lunch breaks.

However, the sacrifice was well worth it just to be able to bring the additional value to both sets of attendees.

Plus – I probably should have skipped the meal anyway, since the interesting thing about this last minute collaboration is that we actually hadn’t planned on speaking at each other’s events until the night before, when Fabian Lim, Patric Chan and I discussed our plans over a McDonald’s meal (all three of us had Quarter Pounder meals, in case you were wondering!)

I think everyone was pleased with the way things panned out, especially since attendees of both Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop and Affiliate List Profits Workshop had surprise guest experts who were not originally planned.

Thanks again to my good friends, Fabian Lim and Patric Chan – I look forward to working with both of you again in the very near future!

Hello from the Singapore Management University (SMU) School of Economics and Social Sciences at Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop in Singapore!

Simon Leung at Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop in Singapore

This weekend in Singapore is a continuation of where Fabian Lim and I left off two weeks ago in Jakarta, Indonesia, as we bring the Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop to our Singaporean audience.

However, we needed to catch an early evening flight that night into Kuala Lumpur for Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop Malaysia the next day, so we couldn’t stay until midnight as we did at Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop Indonesia.

I do wish that we had more time to spend at Real Social Marketing Secrets Singapore, since I always have a good time conducting smaller workshops in Singapore, as most of the attendees are action takers who are ready to learn and implement their new knowledge.

And since I knew that these attendees were action takers, that’s why I wasn’t surprised that shortly after we concluded Real Social Marketing Secrets Singapore, the case studies began rolling in.

Here is one from one of the attendees, Jerome Castenada, who is also my “Google Insider System” Mentorship Program student from Asia Internet Congress Singapore last year, sharing his recent success of not only taking his website to the top of Google, but also securing multiple rankings on Google’s first page for a term with over 59 million search results – all in only three days!

Hello from the Crowne Plaza at PowerMax’s Asia Internet Congress Philippines in Manila, Philippines!

Simon Leung at Asia Internet Congress Philippines

Asia Internet Congress Philippines, organized by PowerMax, has definitely been the biggest production seminar I have ever participated in!

Led by PowerMax owner, Rene Espinosa, the mostly corporate audience enjoyed live performances from singers and dancers, as well as cultural musical tributes to the beautiful country of Philippines in between presentations.

There were even special appearances by Senators and other corporation owners, among dozens of sponsors who presented their own services in booths outside of the seminar room.

But of course, the highlight of Asia Internet Congress Philippines were the expert speakers, which included Fabian Lim, Ian Del Carmen, Jo Han Mok, Jaz Lai, David Cavanagh and Lloyd Luna.

In addition to our individual presentations, we also made it a point at the end of each evening to answer all of the audience members’ questions on the Expert Panel.

Manila is an amazing place and the Filipino market is awesome – I can’t wait to come back again and expand my business into the Philippines!

Hello from the Le Grandeur Hotel at the Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop in Jakarta, Indonesia!

Simon Leung and Fabian Lim at Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop

The Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop is my first collaboration with Fabian Lim, one of Singapore’s top Internet Marketing experts and a specialist in Pay-Per-Click advertising and search engine optimization.

Even though I had to leave my Vegas trip early to take a Sunday flight out to Jakarta, which resulted in close to 60 hours travel time due to flight delays, extended layovers and other travel challenges, then arriving in Jakarta just in time to begin the full day training, the amazing energy and welcome from the Indonesian students gave me enough stamina to pull through the workshop, which we did not conclude until 12AM!

Yes, it was an intense day, especially with my lack of rest due to the long travels, but it was very much worth it just to experience the encouragement and motivation from the Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop students and to personally help them build their empires online.

As with all my workshops, in addition to delivering content-packed powerpoint presentations, Fabian Lim and myself also provided live demonstrations of actual examples and steps at the Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop.

Since there has been so much demand for the Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop just from the buzz that was built around it through social media such as Facebook and Twitter, Fabian Lim and myself are planning to expand this event into Singapore and Malaysia, potentially in other parts of Asia, as well.

We may decide to test drive the Singapore and Malaysia markets next weekend, so if you are in these areas and think you may be interested in attending, please be sure to let us know, and you, too, will have access to the Real Social Marketing Secrets Workshop strategies, just like these lucky students who attended our Jakarta event:

Hello from the Suntec Convention Center at Fabian Lim’s Asia Internet Congress in Singapore!

Simon Leung at Asia Internet Congress Singapore

For the past week, I have been spending a lot of time with Fabian Lim and the Asia Internet Congress team as they held two powerful back-to-back events in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and Singapore.

This weekend’s Asia Internet Congress event in Singapore is even bigger than last weekend’s in Malaysia, with over twice the number of attendees inside the jam-packed conference room.

In addition to the speakers who presented at Asia Internet Congress in Malaysia, which included Patric Chan, Jaz Lai, Sean Roach, David Cavanagh and Kishore M, Fabian Lim has added Jo Han Mok, Benjamin Wee and Ivan Wong to the Asia Internet Congress Singapore roster.

Hello from the Wisma MCA at Fabian Lim’s Asia Internet Congress 2009 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia!

Simon Leung at Asia Internet Congress in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

I’m very excited that Fabian Lim has invited me back to the Asia Internet Congress stage, as I was one of the speakers at the original Asia Internet Congress in Singapore back in 2007, which was also my very first speaking engagement in Singapore.

Since meeting for the first time at that event, Fabian Lim and I have become very close friends, speaking at each other’s events, and also planning some exciting events of our own scheduled to launch in Q1 of 2010.

I have decided to partner with Fabian Lim not only because he is a great friend who knows what he is doing when it comes to search engine optimization and Pay-Per-Click advertising, but also because he is one of the few promoters who knows how to put on amazing live events.

And it was definitely no exception this weekend at Asia Internet Congress in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

An event complete with some of the top experts in the world, motivated audience, well-trained crew and exceptional planning, Asia Internet Congress also included several full-blown 90 minute trainings from Fabian Lim himself.

In addition to the individual speaker presentations, expert panels and networking sessions, Asia Internet Congress is definitely one of the highest valued live events anyone can expect to attend at any given time.

And next weekend, I am very excited to return to Fabian Lim’s stage once again when he hosts Asia Internet Congress in Singapore.
