“Now Give Me Back My Dog!”

My pitch for the Immediate Edge Internship

Dear Dan and Ed

A shepherd was herding his flock in a remote pasture when suddenly a brand new BMW advanced out of a dust cloud toward him. The driver, a young man in a Broni suit, Gucci shoes, YSL tie and Ray Ban sunglasses leans out of the window and asks the shepherd, “If I tell you exactly how many sheep you have in your flock, will you give me one?” [http://www.thegaryhalbertletter.com/Newsletters/population.htm]

You are both busy and you do not just need a consultant to do your paperwork. If that was the case you would already have been at Elance to get one.

What you need is somebody that has a passion for internet marketing, somebody that believes that IM can work for anybody and somebody with at least some track record. You do not need John Reese of Frank Kern, but you need somebody that already knows the way around.

So it may not be a surprise that I put myself forward, as I believe I can add a lot of value both to the Immediate Edge but also to your other activities (some of them at least)

Having been around since the first Thirty Day Challenge many people do know me and I believe that this can add value as well.

I understand that “virtual intern” arrangements can be difficult, however getting from Zurich to Manchester is neither difficult nor expensive, in fact getting from London to Manchester would probably be the same travelling time and I am more than willing to do travel, so when we have to meet up it can easily be done.

Besides the experience in IM, I speak several European languages, have lived 3 years in London so I know my way around there. I already have an Apple iMac (thanks for the ‘excuse’ to upgrade to Leopard) which means I can start right away.

As for golden opportunity, there is no doubt in my mind that I could benefit from this just as I know I can give a lot as well. I know that any task I take on I will complete, so you will not have to spend time on putting out fires. “The Devil Wears Prada” … Give me a task and I’ll get it done!

I will be available for chat or interview when you want, though I will be skiing with my family Thursday to Saturday this week.

Currently I work full time in Zurich. I would suggest to work initially on a part time basis (Seeing that you, Dan mainly work afternoons, evenings and nights) Should the work load get too big then we will arrange for that as well.

Have a nice day

Asbjorn
