<p><strong>Seems everyone is an expert these days.</strong></p>
<p>There are so many &#8217;self-proclaimed&#8217; experts and gurus out there these days that it&#8217;s hard for a person just entering the internet marketing and work from home arena to really know who to trust.</p>
<p>With all the online noise&#8230; Who do you listen to?</p>
<p>Listening to the wrong &#8216;expert&#8217; could set you back months not to mention the amount of money you could be taken for. So many are a victim of the blind leading the blind.</p>
<p>I felt inspired to start a new blog series on Bloggers and Internet Marketers that go beyond &#8216;Guru&#8217; or &#8216;Expert&#8217; status&#8230;<strong></strong></p>
<h3><strong>They are on a whole other level that I call &#8216;HERO&#8217; status.</strong></h3>
<p>These are individuals that OVER DELIVER of their time and compassion and truly care about helping others succeed. Many times asking nothing in return.</p>
<p>You won&#8217;t find them pitching you on the next greatest launch or affiliate product with each email they send.</p>
<h3><strong>They&#8217;re all about <em>Sharing The Love!</em></strong></h3>
<p>They are leaders and an inspiration to others.</p>
<p>Now some of these Heroes you may not have even heard of&#8230;YET.<br />
Yes, they are all very very successful BUT they&#8217;re not shouting to the roof tops how great they are.</p>
<p><strong>So now to kick this blog series off&#8230; </strong></p>
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Here&#8217;s My First &#8216;Hero&#8217; pick:</strong></h1>
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong> Mark Ress of Ressonomics.com</strong></h1>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-360" title="markress" src="http://www.ebusinessmagic.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/markress.png" alt="Mark Ress" width="300" height="246" /></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been following <a href="http://www.twitter.com/markress" target="_blank">Mark on Twitter</a> and I&#8217;ve participated in his <a href="http://www.ustream.tv/channel/markress" target="_blank">Ustream shows</a> and webinars and he has impressed me from day one.</p>
<p>As Mark himself says, &#8220;I just try to keep it real. It&#8217;s not just about the money. It&#8217;s about serving and helping people with honorable intention.&#8221;</p>
<p>He&#8217;s very passionate and he tells it like it is. He pushes you to take action but he does it with love and has your best interests at heart not his own.</p>
<p>Just this past December, Mark hosted a Free 5 hour Live Event on Ustream he called his &#8216;December Stimulus Plan&#8221; which was just another way of him &#8216;giving&#8217; back and blessing others. And those attending were truly blessed by Mark not only of his time and training but other free gifts and bonuses- cash, free hosting, T-shirts, Omaha steaks, coaching and more. Attendees came up with several acronyms for his DSP event&#8230; such as Doing Something Positive.  The event took on a life of its own as other marketers such as Mark Joyner and Tony Blake joined in and donated items of their own to bless others with.</p>
<p>Mark&#8217;s personal story is an inspiration in itself&#8230; growing up and surviving in the rough streets of LA as a kid, an ex &#8216;gang banger.</p>
<p>He is now very active in his church and works with the youth to help get them off the streets and have a chance at a brighter future.</p>
<p>Mark is on a mission to change lives in 2009 with his new free training program, <a href="http://www.ressonomics.com" target="_blank">Ressonomics.com </a><br />
I encourage you to head over there asap, and sign up. I promise you&#8217;ll be completely blown away by what this guy is giving you for free.</p>
<p>In addition to the wealth of knowledge and empowerment Mark will share with you, you&#8217;ll always get a good dose of entertainment, laughs and of course some good salsa music <img src='http://www.ebusinessmagic.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' title="Will the Real Guru Please Stand Up?" /> </p>
<p>Mark has blessed so many including myself so this blog post and series is my way of paying it forward.<br />
Be sure to continue to share the love by letting your friends know about <a href="http://twitter.com/markress" target="_blank">Mark Ress</a> and<a href="http://www.ressonomics.com" target="_blank"> Ressonomics.</a></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Side Note:</strong> I wrote this article a few weeks ago but waited to post it because Mark&#8217;s wife, Jen Rey, has been in the hospital. He&#8217;s been posting updates on her status via <a href="http://twitter.com/markress" target="_blank">Twitter. </a> &#8220;Thanks to <span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content">everyone who was there w/ supporting Tweets, prayers, retweets, prayer requests and prayer circles. &#8221; &#8211; Mark Ress via Twitter.<br />
</span></span></p>
<p><strong>Do you know a Blogger or Internet Marketer that has what it takes to be considered Hero material?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Post your votes and comments.</strong></p>
<p>Be inspired,</p>
<p>Rhonda</p>
