Perry Belcher: Turning The Page

October1

Dear Friends,

Today I decided to end my career as an internet marketing trainer. I have told so many of my students that when your 1% unhappy it’s time to get out. Now it’s time to follow my own advice.

Over the last 18 months or so I have had the privilege to meet and work with some of the coolest, kindest, most generous people I have ever known. I have truly enjoyed sharing my knowledge of internet marketing and social media marketing with each and every one of you.

So why would I quit? There are several reasons, but here are a few…

First, training and coaching, for me, is an all encompassing business. I took on every client’s challenges as my own and and my time with my family has been very limited since I began on this path. I look very forward to focusing on just being dad and a husband for a while.

Secondly, while there are a great many people who have shown me a great deal of love, there are a few that have shown a heavy dose of hate and anger, partially because of my past. This group has unfortunately been much more vocal and harsh.

While I can take reasonable criticism, today I have concerns for my safety and the safety of family.

Third, I remembered that it’s much more fun and profitable to be a marketer than it is to teach internet marketing…a truth that someone had to hit me over the head to help me remember.

So, that being said I need to make a clean break….

I have asked that all my internet marketing training products be removed from the market.

I am in the process of removing all internet marketing related materials form my blogs.

Over the next bit of time I will be reverting my social media connections back to close personal friends.

I will have canceled all future internet marketing and social media speaking opportunities and will not accept new ones.

In short, I am taking my life back to private.

My current clients will be supported by Ryan Deiss’ company, Infomastery, but I will be creating no new internet marketing trainings and I have canceled all future speaking engagements regarding internet marketing.

For any current customers and clients who are still owed coaching/consulting from me, I will still be hanging around for as long as it takes to make sure that you are taken care of. In other words, while my public persona will more or less vanish, I’ll still be helping you privately and WILL NOT violate prior agreements. (NOTE: This includes “Social Media Money System” customers who are owed coaching calls with me.)

If you have any questions or concerns about any of this, please contact customer support at: support@drivingtraffic.com

…or by phone at: 512-600-4363

I appreciate your care and understanding and I wish each and every one of you great success in your future endeavors.

Sincerely,
Perry Belcher

    Perry,

    You are definitely one of the good guys out there. One of the few who wasn’t pushing crap products on the I.M. market. I bought your M.M. w/Google product & for such a low price it is a great (legit) product.

    I wish you and your family safety and happiness and continued success with your marketing. I have a wife and kids so I totally understand the need to focus on them.

    Good success.

    Perry,

    I’m sorry to see you go. You bring a lot to the table. It’s too bad that it’s come to this, but ultimately I’m happy when someone takes bold steps to preserve/pursue their happiness. Best of luck in your continued efforts. Whatever you do, I’m sure you’ll crush it.

    Wait? So did you quit everything because your hand was forced by those who don’t like you or because you just woke up and decided to stop? This is very disappointing for all your fans… and very strange.

  8. On October 1st, 2009 at 3:17 am Bryant Jones Says:

    Dude,

    I am proud of you taking a stand for your life and family like this. We are going to miss you man, hope we can still hang out some time.

    Let me know if there is ANYTHING I can help you with.

    Perry. I saw you recently in Minneapolis at the Midwest Super Conference. You kind of looked tired and maybe not quite your normal self. I fully appreciate what you are doing to protect yourself, your health and mental well being. You have my highest praise for taking this step in your life. I want you to know that if there is anything my family can do to help yours I am more than willing to assist in any way possible. Over coming seems to be a natural state for you but I know that always comes at a cost most people don’t see. Take care and I look forward to seeing you kick butt out in the market place. Be cool my friend. Bill

    Perry please tell me this part of some launch hype, this can’t be true? :)
    Curse that saty droid or whomever has caused this, so many of us have your back Perry.

    Your teaching in the last 10 months and at the Traffic and Conversion Summit have helped me rebuild my career and launch a business which has litterally saved my family during these hard economic times.

    The most important thing I learned from you Perry is: Love your loved ones or they will find that love somewhere else.” That insight has impacted my life in more ways then even your social media teachings.

    Do what you have to do for your loved ones Perry.

    The world is a sadder place today without you Perry.

    Perry you’ll be missed! I’ve appreciated how you have faced things and can only imagine what things are like at the moment and can fully understand why you’d want to have that time for the family. I still have vivid memories of time lost from my family when I was over committed when my children were young. No matter how good the intentions and the reasons it never can be made up so it’s wise for you to focus on it since you can it’s a gift. :) It’s a shame that there are the haters out there, but that contrast allows us to have a greater appreciation and a richness for our loved ones. Keep that family you’ve been entrusted with knowing how much you love and care for them. Stay safe and enjoy the slower pace in life doing what many can only dream about with your independence.

    Though I know that among the thousands of great contacts I won’t be a personal one, but would be honored if that was possible. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. If you ever need to chat or even pray just contact me I’m here. Rev James Stratford @JRStratford

    Stay centered in Him, be real, and be yourself! Thanks again for sharing things and your perspectives as well as setting a good example in social network settings.

    I’ld like to start with wishing you all the best in your future and that I can understand your motives to do so. It’s a bit unfortunate on the other hand as I appreciate and have appreciated your presence in the more public part of this internet. I also tend to believe that your post is another example of the success of a few idiots who apparently made it hard for you to continue.

    However, you talk about another issue as well. This is about limits, and your inability to only go so far and reserve some time for the private parts of your life. Finding balance is difficult and necessary at the same time. I hope you will find that balance.

    Again, all the best. I hope to still hear from you every now and then, even though at this time you apparently don’t intend to.

    Cheers

    So sad about this news, Perry. Not for me or anyone else of your extremely thankful students, or for your more-peace-of-mind-filled future.

    But for your pain that I feel from what has happened in your recent past.

    You warned about the pros and cons of the “celebrity” that comes with being open and public with one’s life. Now that message rings extra loud and clear.

    I hope this serves as a warning to all of us.

    Thanks for your heart and soul — which you gave above and beyond to me and so many others.

    Congratulations in advance on the peace you will experience, and the extra time and energy you will have for yourself and your family — the things that truly matter in life.

    You’ll always be a hero to me, Perry.

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

    Good luck. Maybe I’ll see you underground

  15. On October 1st, 2009 at 5:54 am Kevin DaSilva Says:

    Hey Perry,

    Its a shame to see you go man.

    You know it sucks that some people just don’t understand we are all human and at times make mistakes. And its NOT our mistakes that define us but how far we can go after making them.

    Dude you are forever a role model to me. And I do NOT ignore the mistakes you made when I say that… But actually its because of the mistakes you made and how you still were able to make what you made happen…

    THAT IS THE BIGGEST & MOST SINCERE REASON YOU WILL ALWAYS BE SOMEONE I APPRECIATE, RESPECT & LOOK UP TO!

    Its great to see that you can now spend time with the “fam” and do your personal thing. You definitely have done enough to take care of your family in a way most fathers only dream of… And for that my man you are a WINNER! And nothing in your past can ever take that away from you.

    You are bigger & a better person than anyone that criticizes you and the reason they “hate” is because they see someone who has hit lows that would paralyze most and yet you have surpassed even their dreams… GOOD FOR YOU!

    Like they say… “It is better to love an have lost then to never have loved at all.”

    You came, you conquered and now you can graciously bow out.

    And thanks to you, a young buck like me, equipped with your training and model, can rise up and take a hold of that torch and raise the bar as you did… But when it happens you will still be the ORIGINAL KING OF SOCIAL MEDIA!

    God Bless You & Your Family Perry!

    It was great while it lasted and I, as I am sure many others will be hanging out with you through audios and videos for many years to come… And you can “vanish” but you will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!

    Again I wish you & your family the best of everything and God Will Bless Y’all for all the fortune and dreams that you have and will make come true in 1000’s of people’s lives through your teachings.

    You will be missed and now its time for “New Comers” like me to step up and apply all your teachings. An you will be glad to know I have been doing for the past few weeks… They have NO IDEA whats coming for em’ dude and you will always be credited for any success I achieve..

    Take It Easy Perry

    Your Friend & Lifetime Supporter,

    Hey Perry,

    I don’t know if you will see this. And that’s okay. I wanted to let you know that your program gave me life again. I was stumbling around and wasting my life away with no goals and no means to a future.

    You helped me, and you were a big part of helping get me back on track.

    I guess what I’m trying to say is thank you, I appreciate you, and I hope that you find happiness. I really do.

    Thanks for everything,
    Will

    Dear Perry,

    I appreciate your love for your family and your desire for happiness I just wrote a full page to express my gratitude for all that you have done for me
    and how impressed I am with your desire for happiness. Then I got the “INVALID MAIL” and lost the entire thing. You just got to love computers. It was hart felt and honest and that is the only way I know how to be. Well I will put the top of my head back on. you will be missed my fingers are getting tired now that i am doing this twice. I love and respect you.

    I am and always will be you friend.

    You gotta be kidding me! Heck you inspired me to jump on board with that call with Dan Kennedy! Sad to see it happen brother. Keep your head up. (Got my fingers crossed this is a joke or a new launch)

    Remember:

    “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.” –Roosevelt.

    Hi Perry,
    Both my husband and I wanted to say how sorry we are to hear you are removing yourself from internet marketing - however quiet a place it may become without you we can certainly understand the reasons behind it all.
    I wanted to thank you for your help and awesome programme through SMMS. I intend to take it to the world!
    We both wish you all the best for your future and enjoy your life as a dad and husband again.
    Best regards,
    Antonia

    Perry,

    Very sad to see you go.

    You have given so generously to your clients and you’re a great teacher. I really appreciate what you’ve done for us.

    It’s sad that the haters caused you so much agony. There must be many more people who love and support you for who you are than the ones that want to cut you down. May you take comfort in that.

    I hope you enjoy your private and personal time with family and friends. You deserve it.

    All the best,

    -Amber

    Hey Perry,
    Just going to make this short, Personally I value meeting you here in Vegas, Very cool wish we did have more time to just hang. I have lost friends to shootings, drugs, dwi, you name it. But when loosing contact with a friend that is still alive I think that is the most confusing. I’m OK You do what you know is best for you my friend.

    I do ask only one thing on you though occasionally make it a point to say hi to Cait http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30159526&id=1571110421 You will remember her, she really respects and loves you much.

    I’m sure you won’t completely disconnect from the net. Not even finishing that statement I realized how attached I am attached. Dude I got to get a life!

    Take great care!

    Hi Perry,
    I am so sorry and shocked to hear you are quitting teaching IM and social media.
    I met you at Frank Kern’s mass control event in San Diego a few months back ,I even have you on my video.You were gracious and very nice enough to talk to us.
    Needless to say,I was very impressed with you and your presentation,where I learned a lot about Twitter and the power of its applications especially for business. I could say that your presentation started me as a twitterholic.
    Thank you for that gift.I know you will be missed by so many people.
    I wish the best for you and your family.

    Amazing - to think someone has taken this so personally as to threaten you and your family! There really are some fuckwits in this world!

    If you need a break (and to disappear) to Australia - let me know, myself and the other aussies will take good care of you and your family - coming into summer here soon - it is heaven!

    Best of luck!

  25. On October 1st, 2009 at 11:02 am Elizabeth Hendry Says:

    Having been in contact with you for the past few months has enriched my life both with such an ethical approach to marketing and social media and your fun approach to life, and through the new people I have met on the course and social media.
    Sad as I am to see you go, I am sure that what you are doing must be the best for you. And if it is absolutely right for you, it will be absolutely right for everyone else.
    Enjoy this next phase in your life. Good luck and continue to bring laughter to those around you.

  26. On October 1st, 2009 at 11:48 am Mark Kaplan Says:

    Perry, I heard you speak in Atl, and your sincerity & IM skills shined through. Would love to keep up….hopefully for some informal IM advice and your friendship. But at the very least, I would be honored to be on the Board of Directors for your Hot Dog Empire. Best of luck.

  27. On October 2nd, 2009 at 12:07 am Jeanette Cates Says:

    Perry - I thoroughly enjoyed you and your work - sometimes edgy but always enlightening. I learned a lot from you in a short time. You have a great ability to explain things in an easy-to-follow, very friendly manner - and I hope you’ll teach someone something. It’s too great a gift to waste.

    Enjoy your privacy - and try to get past the 7th hole on the golf course!

  28. On October 2nd, 2009 at 12:30 am Sean Rasmussen Says:

    Hi Perry
    Sorry to see you leave the industry, but in the same instance I am happy for you. I know what the 1%ers are like. The 1000’s of grateful clients can easily be overshadowed by the very few ungratefuls out there with very low levels of appreciation and gratitude.
    It’s cuts to the bone to get an abusive email from someone who doesn’t understand or usually just wants everything done for them and handed over on a silver platter.
    You will be sorely missed and the industry will be worse off without you.
    Best Regards
    Sean Rasmussen

  29. On October 2nd, 2009 at 12:52 am Marty Green Says:

    Perry, your seminars and posts on you tube have made me a huge fan. The way you explain things with clarity and excitement gets through, even to a knucklehead like me!

    It saddens me that you will not be around for me to learn from. Thank you for showing me the way.

    All the best for you and your family.

    I want to thank you for everything you’ve provided in the way of tips, education, entertainment, and value over the years. You have truly impacted my life, as well as many people aspiring to make an honest living at this Internet Marketing game.

    I wish you nothing but the best in all your future endeavors. Enjoy your time with your family. You’ve more than earned it.

    I am so shocked to read this Perry, and I really wish it wasn’t true. I respect your decision, and feel angry that some selfish and vindictive people have precipitated this choice.
    As a member of MS09 I look forward to our last coaching call as I gained so much from the last one. I was so hoping to get to know you better as you seem to be one of the most genuine people out there in Internet marketing.
    God bless you

  32. On October 2nd, 2009 at 3:23 am Dora Says:

    So sorry to hear about your felony conviction! I am glad you didn’t have to go to prison. Better to be on the 10 years probation plan than being in jail anyday. As for all the people they say you ripped off, I would say they didn’t have to buy the medicine from you, they had free choice to get it someplace else. I don’t understand all the talk on that “Salty Droid” blog. But I hope your life will turn around one day. Honesty is the best policy.

    The Salty Droid doesn’t have the balls to use it’s real name or show it’s face. The Salty Droid loses. Perry will come back bigger and better, even if he decides not to come back at all. I feel a ground swell….and a chant….perry! Perry, PERry, PERRY!!! Deafening!!!

    Hi Perry,

    This has come as quite a shock! You have given quite a lot of useful advice and tips in the past and, as a family man myself I wondered how you managed to balance your time with your family. Although you will be sadly missed, I agree that family and close friends come first - after all they are the true lifetime customers of yours aren’t they.

    With very best wishes,
    Brian

    Perry it was great to meet you at the Minnesota Super Conference a few weeks back and I obviously don’t and hadn’t known you well enough to say this to you but you had looked worried and worn out in the hall the day before. Since then I’ve been thinking of you and you have my prayers. I hope that the group who is hating on you will disappear and leave you alone. You are a really fun and intelligent guy. Have a blast in the “Private” world.

    I understand wanting to have time for your family, and wish you all well.

    I appreciate all that you have done and hope to meet you some day.

    Have an awesome time with your family, it’s what’s most important.

    Hope to see you on ustream or something maybe a couple times in the future at least!

    Perry,

    It’s a shame to see you go, but I understand. It’s hard to not write things about those shallow, pitiful fools who take every available chance to comment on things they don’t know anything about.

    But know this - those of us who’ve met you, get you.

    All the best to you and your family in your future endeavors.

    Perry,

    You have been an inspiration to me, as you have to many. Being open and honest about your past and the positive changes you made in your life made me want to know you better and support you in any way possible. Although I’m truly sorry to lose your generosity with ideas and support, it is a vital need to set healthy limits in life - and I congratulate you for recognizing your real priorities, then doing what you need to in order to honor those.

    I have gained much and hope to gain yet more from your SMMS course - thank you for initiating it.

    It was great seeing you in Atlanta and hearing you speak. You have much value to impart - thanks for sharing it with us.

    Hopefully, we will see you around now and then, on and offline. Stay well, and may your life prosper. Keep your great sense of humor intact!

    Your student and friend,

    Hello Perry,

    My name is MoniqueIfaye and I am a budding social networking entrepreneur. I just finished reading your post (one of my Facebook friends posted a link to this page). I know a business can feel like your baby, so you made a tough decision in letting it go. I’m appalled that some people were extremely unprofessional in their behavior toward you and your family. However, I am glad that you will have more time to spend with your family (your sons are really cute by the way).

    I love the design of this blog page (paisley is my favorite pattern) and would like to know who designed it for you. I am currently seeking a website designer for my blog, MoniqueIfaye.com and my company, WoW4Women. Please send your reply to the email address I entered above.

    I have nothing but respect for you & the way you approach social media, IM & life man.

    Thank you for all you have done for the IM community Perry. This is hard to see You’re leaving it all behind but good for you man!

    It’s like I just met you & you’re saying good-bye. It’s okay becuz I love your style of vids & info & will undoubtedly model you in my IM journey.

    Thanks for being there & someone who has done it big. Nice to see you can give this up & move on to bigger & better things man. Best of luck with all Perry.

    Best, Tim

    Perry,

    I too have that 1% unhappy rule (thanks GaryVee and Steve Jobs) I totally understand and salute the choice made.

    We’ve met live a few times.

    First I can’t tell you how grateful and fortunate I feel to have been able to connect and learn from you (and Ryan)…many other will be missing out. The strategies have been invaluable to me in ‘getting it’. Your products while not the most polished were by far the most entertaining and enjoyable (even surpassing the Kernmeister)..on what was a big pill to swalllow… so a BIG thanks!

    Second, I feel equally fortunate that I am still able to get one last phone call with you. it’s been so busy I haven’t even cracked open the social media product since Mass Control SD, was planning to save that gem for help with the right business. In fact the one I’m going to use it on is the one you asked me about at Traffic and Conversion summit Wicked Tips section (e.g. the webinar simulator with timed belcher button)

    While it’s probably more appropriate to erect a gold plated marble statue fountain that doubles as a beer tap. I hope you don’t mind that the Belcher Button will live on in what I’m calling the UBB (Ultimate Belcher Button).

    If you want to use either of those in your businesses, I’ll get em to you for $1 ;)

    Troy

    P.S. Future material from Ryan is going to feel 1/2 empty, just like peanut butter with out the jelly.

    Hate to see this post Perry. Your stuff rocked! Maybe after some retirement time, you’ll miss the passion and training others. I appreciate all I’ve learned from you. I wish the very best in future success. Best of luck and God Bless. Cheers!

    Well that’s tough news for the industry.

    Maybe you and I can work on a script via email.

    Perry,

    What you’re experiencing is why I’ve never started a coaching program. Although I’ve missed out on perhaps millions of dollars, I hate the thought of people “owning a piece of you.” And that’s what happens when people pay large sums of money for your coaching.

    I would rather just be a quite marketer and enjoy life.

    Rock on Perry!

    The information you shared with your community is exceptional…

    Best,

    I just want to say that all your stuff has been really helpful. Wish you and your family all the best! And in the end, it’s not going to matter how many breaths you took, but how many moments took your breath away.

    Perry, I’ve got a stalker who has cost me and my family around $100,000 in the last year. He’s just started again. I may be following you soon if he isn’t incarcerated. Some bad people out there, dude.

    Hang in there. You’re doing the right thing. Proud of you, Man.

    A bunch of us at Ed’s Gold Mastermind this past weekend were wondering why we hadn’t seen an posts/tweets/emails from you lately. Now we know— and are so sorry to learn that circumstances have forced you on this detour in your path. Have only known you as a social media guru for about 9 months, but have learned so much trying to apply stuff you willingly shared. Impressive that you responded to tweets, DM’s, posts sent your way! thanks, and keep you family close to your heart.

    Who are we to judge anyone. Let ye without sin pick up the stone…you were one of the good marketers who sincerely wanted people to”get it” and succeesd. These people were jealous because they knew you had a winning personality and was getting ready to publish your book. I only know of maybe 4 internet marketers decent out of the whole group of them and you were the tops. Some of these arrogant bast–ar-s won’t even give you the time of the day on twitter : remember how you talked about people turning their back on you at a party; well the marketers I know do it hourly. They can try to tarnish your name online but I hope you market your own products offline and kick their assess. you’re real and your baby toe has more character than these crooks anyday. …and if you a marketer is reading this: stop complaining unless the shoes don’t fit…

    Perry, I was wondering why your newsletter wasn’t being delivered. I just found out you’re moving on…

    I’m cutting my teeth in IM and have enjoyed some of your products and looked to you as an example of how to do it. So sorry to hear you’ve been having a tough time. Forget the haters, good luck to you and your family. Respect and best wishes.

    Peter.

    Perry, it’s really sad that some bad apples have forced you out like this. I’m really greatful for what you’ve given me through just watching a couple of your videos. I appreciate your concerns though, and I really hope there’s other people out there willing to (at least try) to fill your boots.

    Take care man,
    Jonny.

    Hey Perry,

    I am proud to have met you in your “Internet Marketing life”. Robert Allen sends his best too.

    If there is anything I can do to help you or Ryan in transition or otherwise please let me know.

    You’ve got my card, the one with Mark V Hansen, myself and Robert Allen.

    I was looking for my brain cloning equipment the other day to see if I could just hook you up to it for a few minutes….

    Take Care of yourself and your family,

    Perry we can surely stop these people from trying to bash you. I’m sure you have more fans than enemies….I’m so pissed by this..

    However, I do understand your need to spend more time with and care for the safety of your family. I respect that bro!

    You will be greatly missed. I learned a lot from you and Ryan and will continue to do great things from your experiences. Thank you so much for the value you have provided and I wish you the best!

    Sincerely,

    J. Lamar Ferren

    I would just like to say that I have purchased several products from you in the past and as one of the chaps said in a comment above, they were of a very high quality! I have learned a lot from you.

    I have a family and completely understand your need to spend more quality time with them, the kids grow up so quickly these days and before you know it they will be out of the house and gone.

    Cherish your family and live life to the fullest, God Bless, Merry Christmas and I hope the New Year brings you all the time in the world with your family.

    Best regards

    Alan

    Wishing you and your family a very Happy Holidays!

    Whatever you’ve done in your private life is your deal. I just know that after hearing and listening a hundred guys out there talk about the same shit, you one of my favorite guys.

    I would say that you come across as a “normal’ guy that I would have a beer with and say things like “shit and crap” and feel completely normal around.

    I do know from what I have heard from you is that whatever they say you’ve done, it was not intentional. And even, if it was a bit intentional, you deserve a pass.

    I think people need to get over the fact that because people are “famous” and I would regard you as famous because once you have reached into the lives of thousands, you’re famous. People need to understand that you’re a normal guy with a family just like the rest of us.

    Have a good New Year Start. Shed the last year. Learn from it. Don’t relive it. Go surf with Kern.

    Peace out.
