The immediate Edge program is a set of cutting edge marketing techniques that you can use to start, build up, and eventually sell an online business for profit. I had a chance to get familiar with the immediate edge after finishing up the thirty day challenge. For those of you not familiar with 30 day challenge, the thirty day challenge is a free course that offers training on latest Web 2.0 services such as Twitter, Weebly, Squidoo, and Google technologies.

So what is the immediate edge? Dan Raine, the creator of the program, talks about how he saw the need to create a place for ninja online marketers. So the immediate edge is supposed to be the place for super advanced marketers who want to capitalize on the latest trends before others.

So here are a few things that I learned from the immediate edge's trial program:

• There is such a thing as too much information: When Dan and Ed talked about how the immediate edge program is not for everyone, I literally thought they were using a marketing ploy to raise interest about their program. But once I logged on to the immediate edge for the first time, I realized how much content they have on the side. Whether it's the whole array of projects or the maximum edge method, there are millions of things to look at, and it's very easy to get lost unless you know your way around.
• There is such as a thing as being over your head: I personally signed up for the immediate edge to get access to latest tricks that I can use to advance my site. Unfortunately, you need to be familiar with a lot of advanced marketing techniques to be able to properly take advantage of the immediate edge teachings.
• Being pragmatic does matter: you read all these books that talk about how you can implement advanced marketing techniques. But unless you see them done in practice,the chances are you are not going to master them. The projects section of the immediate edge is where things become pragmatic.
• There are better things that outsourcing: The social media marketing process can be very time consuming, but most people outsource their projects to India and China to focus on more important things. With the networker, the script does it all.
• You've got to know where to cut your losses: the immediate edge was a great place for marketing training. There were courses about viral marketing, Facebook marketing, and .... In addition, Dan and Ed provide a bunch of tools that you will have to pay in thousands for without the program. But what can you do with the immediate edge if you have no time to follow it. The Immediate Edge Program (IEP) can be the best marketing subscription service out there, but if you don't use it, it's a waste a money. Realizing when to cut your losses is the key.

Should you get the immediate edge? I honestly can't tell. It depends on your marketing level and your experience level. I personally had so many other things to do that to dedicate a chuck of time to the edge program.The immediate edge program is very valuable but definitely not for everyone. I cut my losses after my trial period was over. But if you are advanced enough to take advantage of what is taught there quickly, then you maybe able to justify the monthly price.
