As I look at the sheer number of new launches planned in the Internet marketing niche in May, and beyond, I know that there will be many days when DOZENS of people will try to launch a product or project on the same day. Sadly, many of those people will send out an email announcement and get virtually NO response simply because all of the noise made by bigger launches will drown them out. One tool that you can use in deconflicting your launch from all of the others is the calendar tool at The International Association Of Joint Venture Brokers. The IAJVB database contains all of the events that our members enter, and they are output on a calendar (via niche), so you can take a look and see what is already planned. The biggest drawback to this tool IS that the database is only as good as the data entered. That means that YOUR event won't be listed in the database for affiliates and potential JV partners to find you unless you enter it. It also means that we can't tell you about events where the event promoters don't let us know... but if the product creator keeps their launches too much of a secret, when they do start the launch, it's likely to be drowned out by all of the better orchestrated and better publicized events anyway :-) You can read more about The International Association of Joint Venture Brokers and become a member today at: http://IAJVB.ORG Willie Crawford
