My name is Barbara
Ling, and I've been a mover and shaker on the Internet since 1988. Author
of over 15 books and ebooks online, I have been reviewed or noted by such
publications as the Wall Street Journal, Inc. Magazine, The Fordyce Letter
and more.
Briefly, I teach auction
enthusiasts and entrepreneurs the art of increasing profits via taking
advantage of all the wealth the Internet currently offers. I also
build sites for other consumer information -
Flu Shots Online,
for example, was created after I froze my earlobes off holding a
flu shot space. It has bunches of resources to help you
stay warm while waiting for a flu shot, city/town flu clinic
links and more.
- Q: Why Choose My
Research?
- A: Because I specialize
in turning "technical" or "confusing" into "simple"
into "profitable".
Why choose me? Because
I not only educate...I motivate as well.
Contrary to what
some businesses would like you to believe, mastering the Internet or
honing your personal edge does not require sizeable investments. All that's
needed is a guided pass; simple 1-2-3 instructions on how to best ferret
out the information desired. As you'll see from the testimonials,
both my seminars and books do exactly that.
But it doesn't stop
there...knowledge is useless unless it is applied. How many times
have audiences failed to internalize messages because the messenger droned
them to sleep or didn't understand their true goals?
That's where I shine.
Great books, seminars or talks don't consist of just the information itself...they
live on in the readers' and attendees' thoughts long after they have gone
home. They motivate. They educate. And they transfer key salient
concepts to the listeners.
Credentials
My business and personal
accomplishments and credentials are many and include:
- Crafting the product
eBay Search Profits
within two weeks and seeing it receive rave reviews from all the top auction
professionals online
- Coaching many business
and personal colleagues on how to achieve their personal and business
goals in rapid fashion
- Single-handedly
creating and presenting to thousands of recruiters/HR the dynamic content
for the RISE Internet e-recruiting seminars.
The time required from concept to delivery of the first official seminar
in Toronto (including content, workbooks, CDROM, laminations and more)
was merely three short months. Extremely successful, I have conducted dozens
of workships around the country.
- Speaking at companies
including:
- Deloitte Touche
- Campbell Soup
- Continental Airlines
- The American Chemistry
Society
- The Society of Human
Resources, Mid-Atlantic Region
- The Society of Human
Resources, Granite State
- The Society of Human
Resources, Massachussetts
- The Association of
Legal Professionals
- Being spot-lighted
in key publications including:
- Originating of the
concept Becoming The Recruiter Of Choice.
I've correctly forecasted several recruiting trends, and am constantly
called upon for interviews and customized seminars
- Being a columnist
for several publications including The Boston Herald
- Authoring of the self-published
bestselling book on Internet Recruiting, The Internet Recruiting Edge.
Currently in its 6th edition, it is the only resource to be awarded 5 stars
from Inc. magazine in its field when it debuted.
- Being mentioned
in Inc newsletters by the following tag - When Barbara Ling Talks,
We Listen.
- Creating three
Internet newsgroups including comp.text.interleaf, rec.pets.birds and
att.xksh
My over a decade of
employment at firms like AT&T, Lucent and IBM as a Internet consultant,
lead unix systems administrator and systems engineer have taught me effective
problem-solving techniques that greatly benefit my research. I have been
profiled in many publications and sites, including Monster.com.
Additionally, my years of educating others how to use their software and
environments have enabled me to teach in an easy, informative fashion that
emphasizes creativity instead of rote activity.
I love training and
teaching. And that just comes out in my works and motivational seminars.
Enjoy
my testimonials for my various books below.
"I gave
up on search engines long ago - too complex, too time consuming or so I
believed. But, Barbara's new package, Ebay
Search Profits, has opened my eyes to all kinds of exciting new
possibilities because Barbara really understands search engines. She proves
it again and again by showing her top rated google pages for such products
as Star Wars memorabilia, glass chess sets and "Betty Boop" items.
Most impressive to me was when she put together an affiliate link for
my Auction Genius Course and positioned in on the front page of important
google keywords in only THREE DAYS! All auction sellers take note:
we have much to learn from Barbara Ling."

It's simple common sense. The more quality traffic you have coming to an
ad or an offer, the more sales that will be made. Barbara's ebook Ebay
Search Profits reveals the simple steps that anyone can take to
draw more quality traffic to their eBay ads by using proven search engine
techniques. Best of all, not only can they lead to more eBay sales but
they can be used to bring free targeted traffic to any URL! In my humble
opinion, this ebook is on the cutting edge and those who invest in it will
reap great rewards. Kudos Barbara!

Barbara-
I thought I'd heard it all when it came to online auction promotions. I
was wrong. You have uncovered some very powerful concepts and spelled
them out in black and white for everyone from newbie to auction pro.
Congrats on a very professional and powerful product. I review about 5
books per week pertaining to online auctions and yours is the best I've
seen in months. That's the truth.

Hi Barbara,
I have to say this is one of the best eBooks that I have came across regarding
eBay in a long time. I often find myself skimming through the reviews
that I do for the lack of time, not yours, I was reading word for word
and I hadn't made it out of the introduction. It's great to see a fresh
addition into the world of eBay How-To products, and with your real world
style I can see that you really know your stuff. I will be recommending
this eBook to all my members. Thanks for a great resource.

Hey Barbara,
I just got done reading your new eBook eBay Search Profits. What an interesting
way for ANYBODY to boost their online auction income!
I like the
examples of your sites that have high search engine rankings. No fluff...just
simple techniques! I'll definitely be putting this to use ASAP. Also, thanks
for the over 2,000 links you included as a bonus...they are so valuable!
I just imported them into my Internet Explorer and they were all categorized
very nicely.

"I thought
you did a great job in Atlanta today. I admire the passion you show for
your work and passion can always be found in the details. I wish you great
success in all your endeavors." - Trée George
"Barbara,
just a brief note to express our appreciation for your training last week
in Philadelphia.
Until we
spent the day with you, we thought we knew how to finesse our way around
the Internet and all of its search engines. Your methods are simple to
understand and easy to follow. We just need to apply what you taught!
You definitely
provided all of the ingredients along with the recipe!
You made
a point to cover all the information while making sure no questions were
left unanswered!
Your presentation
flowed very smooth; even someone like me, with limited knowledge of the
Internet, was able to leave the seminar with an entirely different viewpoint
of how to take advantage of the many sites out there. Now we know how to
find them, how to maneuver through and around them and how to find valuable
information.
As we continue
to expand and add additional researchers we will either have you come in
for a personal session or have them attend one of your upcoming seminars.
Thanksfor
the help!"

"THANK
YOU SO MUCH! It was wonderful. Barbara is obviously brilliant, and I learned
a lot. I am now trying to process it all and integrate it into my business.
I will highly
recommend RISE to everyone I know interested in internet recruiting. Let
me know when the next Atlanta seminar is going to take place and I will
be happy to recruit participants for you.
Thanks again....
Best regards,

"...a
warm, dynamic workshop that kept me awake and wanting to learn more."
-- Orlando Attendee
"...
the process of searching fits us as it does anyone in the recruiting industry.
Now that
I have said that, let me share with you that I received on Monday the 17th
a call from a long time client saying they needed a System Administrator
for their 95 workstation WAN and they needed the person immediately. Using
your training material I pulled over 900 resumes in less than three hours
and ALL WERE FREE. I emailed about 150 over the next 24 hours and sent
three resumes to the client. All this was done in less than three days!!
All three were accepted by the client and interviews are set up for Monday
the 24th. I expect one of them to he hired by Tues. The fee will be just
shy of 20K" -- Pamela Gotham, Anchor Associates
"First,
let me say that I am impressed by your computer skills; however, I am in
awe of your ability to take the technical information and make it English.
Teaching is your true gift.
I took our
top candidate sourcing specialist to the Rise seminar and the results were
immediate and measurable. Within 24 hours we found two perfect candidates
for a J.O. that had eluded us for over two months. -- Seattle Attendee
"I've
been to other, popular Internet recruiting training where the instructors
just taught by rote. Your passion for the subject came out and kept me
wanting to learn more and more. And I'm not even interested in computers"
-- Attendee from NYC
"Hi
Barbara, just a quick note to let you know how delighted I was with the
information that I learned at here in Toronto and how useful I know it
is going to be to Maizis and Miller Consultants. I thought that I knew
how to utilize the internet from a recruiting perspective however after
attending my eyes were opened to a broad new range of possibilities to
help Maizis and Miller Consultants attract top talent for our clients in
this tight labour market.
Many Thanks
Ron Maizis,
Maizis And Miller"
