Hopefully you read the post about how to deal with the threat of a violent home invasion.

It was to announce a new "no nonsense" program that just came out called "Home Defense Tactics".

But I just want to make sure this didn’t go under your radar because this is a very REAL danger to every day citizens.

Home invasions don’t just happen in "high crime" neighborhoods!

They happen EVERYWHERE (even in rural areas where home invaders know that there’s no one around to hear your screams).

So let’s dig into some REAL "tactical strategies" to help you get better prepared, shall we?

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Imagine this scenario…
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

You’re sitting at home watching reruns of ‘The Simpsons’ (remember the one where Homer started his own religio…oh nevermind) and there’s a knock at your front door.

"Who’s there?"

"Hello, my daugher is selling girl scout cookies to raise money for military veterans and we’d like to show you her selection."

Being the real "patriot" you are, you’re tempted to open the door to "do your part"…

…but you’re not stupid either!

You look out and notice that you don’t see any little girl, but you DO notice one man standing on your porch you catch a glimpse of another one running to your back door for a sneak attack from the rear.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
What do you reach for?
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Your .45?

Shotgun?

Claymore mine?

All are handy little weapons in the fight you recognize is about to happen, but there’s one weapon that you’d better have at the ready now that’s "go time"!

It’s your BRAIN!

A fire fight is a thinking man’s game (and woman’s ;-) .

If you ARE a "gun owner" (kudos!) then your first instinct may be to start blasting away.

Start with the front door lowlife and work your way onto the next vermin, right?

But a home invasion requires tactical thinking BEYOND just the point and shoot reaction many gun owners have instilled in themselves from typical range training.

So let’s break it down a little bit further and really tap into your cranium…
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Your home invasion battle plan:
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

First, you don’t know what these guys are going to do or even how many of them there are.

Being the smart "thinking shooter" that you are, you know…

Your living room is NOT the best defensive position!  Too many entries and exits and it’s easy to shoot through walls so you’re more likely to get shot

You know you have an attacker at the front and at the back and in your adrenalized state, your peripheral vision goes to hell in a handbasket.

You have family in different areas of the house and no time to take a firing position AND corral them to safety.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
So what do you do?
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

  1. You need a "code word" for your family so that they all know how to spring into action.  
    Forget the Spec Ops secret code. "ESCAPE" works much better than "RED WOLF". Simple…to the point.
  2. Have a "safe room" set up in your house where everyone can retreat to at the same time.  
    It needs to be stocked with several items to be prepared for surviving the upcoming fight.  
    The list isn’t all that long, but it’s longer than what can be listed here (more on that in a minute).  
    But you KNOW you need to have a phone to call law enforcement, right? Use it!
  3. DON’T leave your safe room!
    Assuming you have those you love with you, don’t be one of the idiots who puts on his cape and decides to go take the fight to the guys invading your home.

Hunker down in a corner to the opposite side of the opening of the door so you have maximum time to make a shooting decision and are the last thing the home invaders see when busting in.

You have the advantage in this case because they have to assess the room before making a move (is anyone in the room;where are they; recover; reorganize; act)

You just have to decide whether to shoot or not and you already know that either it’s a bad guy coming for you or the police coming to rescue you.

(hint: don’t shoot the police)  

Stay in place until the police arrive, even if you think the threat is gone.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
But what if…
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

  • You have a loved one taken hostage?
  • You were taken by surprise and handcuffed to a railing?
  • You have to leave the safe room to rescue a family member?
  • You can’t get to your firearm (or don’t own one)?
  • The police weren’t notified and no one knows you’re being attacked?

All good questions!

That’s why I recommend you go and check out the "Home Defense Tactics" program that was just released at:

Have you noticed how email marketers are stooping to sneaky tactics to get you to open their emails? You know the ones I mean:
"download link enclosed"
"are you still up?"
"Your affiliate commissions"
"canceled"
"Response Required"
Then there are the cocky marketers who use obvious subliminal messages like:
(open now)
(urgent)
(read)
(you are getting sleepy)
I tried them a few times and felt like I was lying to people… so I stopped.

The trick with email marketing is to tell the truth in a way that still gets people curious. Like when I was sending information about the membership site plugin, I used the subject line:

"about your membership site"

That one got a lot of response, and it was not misleading.

I am seeing more and more of the gurus stooping to the email deception practices. What this tells me is that even though they have hundreds of thousands of people on their lists, they still have issues with their open rate.

They know that by getting you to open their email, they have a much better chance of making a sale. A simple one percent increase in open rate can translate into thousands of dollars when your list is hundreds of thousands of people. For those of us with lists under 10,000 it is only a small amount of money, but it does mean the difference between sales or no sales.

Another thing that I noticed, too, is that when a launch is supported by the 100k listers, it is next to impossible for those with smaller lists to make any headway in those launches. A sale here and a sale there, but nothing meaningful. I also find that by the time a person has gotten to my email about a product launch, they are so sick and tired of seeing the same subject lines that they are hitting the spam button.

So not only is participating in these launches a waste of my time, but it also means that I am hurting my relationship with my subscribers. Many of the marketers who put on these launches are my good friends, and I do participate in those because they are my friends.

But do not expect to see me doing what everyone else is doing. More likely, I will continue to use my blogs as the delivery method of choice for my promotions.

If you would like to also be using blogs for promotions, but don’t know how to do it, come to My Blogging School. For the next few days, I am reducing the cost of entry to $27… and only with the following code:

This ends on June 7, 2010!

Have an amazing day!
