Previous profession: Eben does not talk about that much, but enough to say that, like many of us, he did not entered Internet marketing for fun.

Mike Hill is a business coach and marketer who mostly works behind the scenes. He claims to create many multimillionaires by giving them the right tools. From his videos, he clearly speaks on affiliate events and highly respected by many people. What he says in his videos makes sense and solid, but that's pretty much all I know about him.

He moved forward lately (August 2009, as far as I could tell) with his own product "CPA Tsunami" As (again) I don't have much information about him, here is a short description of his product:

• Foundation of business.

Shawn Casey is well known for his Gold Mine Corporation with a set of Internet business training courses targeted at the beginners. He is one of a few Internet marketers around who was here before 2000, but not too long before. According to his own words, he jumped on Internet in 1999 with a sweepstakes site buying traffic on Commission Junction and converting it at profit (see PPC Arbitrage article).

Jim Edwards is a long timer in Internet marketing. Enough to say that according to Joel Comm, Jim is the one who convinced Rich Schefren to go into Internet marketing and informational products business in the first place. Being very successful in late 90s, he still sticks to the guns and promotes Mini-Site pattern as the main tool to sell information products online, including his own training course "Mini-Site Creator 2.0".

Frank Kern is most known for his "Mass Control" (and lately updated as "Mass Control 2.0") course. You can see review of it in his own words on his site here: http://www.masscontrolsite.com/supersecret.php, at least while it's still there. Once he puts it down, I'll appreciate a comment to this page saying that I should update it. He also seems to do active consulting, at least for his friends, and helped many Internet Gurus to launch their campaigns, for example, Andy Jenkin's StomperNet or John Reese's Opportunity.

Rich is a legend of Internet marketing. Surprisingly, he only got to Internet marketing after 9.11, but he had a very successful career of turnaround exec in a couple of companies before that with the first success around the time he was only 22. Despite late entry, in merely 8 years after he turned to Internet, he become a legend and, according to himself, he trained an order of magnitude more Internet marketing gurus than his closest competitor (who, I suspect, is Eben Pagan, still a very respected person in the field).

If you don't know who is Jay Abraham, well... I feel honored to introduce you to him. There is a reason why he is in Olympus section of this site. Really.

If he'd live in the Ancient Greece, we'd have today a serial "Jay Abraham: The Legendary Profits" instead of the "Hercules: The Legendary Journeys". Seriously. They would consider him a semi-god. You'd too, if you are lucky enough to make him consult your business. That's how good he is.

Let me quote his own words:

From StomperNet site:

Brad gained renown as an SEO when he and his wife founded Smart Marketing and MyWeddingFavors.com and rocketed to the #1 spot in Google. Since then, he's gone on to co-found StomperNet with Andy Jenkins and continue to build his reputation as a visionary Internet marketer.

From StomperNet blog:

He is also the author of the "Link Liberator" program.
