About Michael Kimble

For over 9 years, Michael Kimble has been helping entrepreneurs start and succeed in information publishing, direct marketing and, most recently, Internet-based businesses. Mr. Kimble is the CEO of Group M Marketing, Inc., located in Austin, Texas.

Group M’s customers and Members of its Centurion Club number in the tens of thousands throughout the U.S., Canada and 12 other countries. Mr. Kimble is so well-respected as an innovative, successful leader in information publishing and marketing that entrepreneurs pay $4,900.00 or more per person just to attend two-day “Office Field Trips” to his office when offered.

Michael Kimble began his career in face-to-face selling, achieving record-breaking sales results in the insurance industry. His committed investigation of direct-response advertising and direct marketing began in 1991, when – even though he was earning a high 6-figure income – he grew increasingly dissatisfied with the repetitive manual labor and long hours required by a sales career. His self-directed education took him to many direct marketing industry insiders’ seminars, and hiring several as consultants.

Michael is the author of a number of information products including the “Instant Online Business-Building Toolkit”, “77 Little-Known Offline Marketing Techniques & Secrets For Promoting Any Product, Service, Business, or Website”, and "The Most Powerful Marketing Strategies Ever Written For Small Business Owners”. He also publishes the Centurion Club newsletters ("Michael Kimble’s Smart Marketing Letter” and “Marketing Nuggets”), providing insider, experience-based and very timely marketing and moneymaking strategies, case histories and key contacts.

In 1999, Michael acquired exclusive worldwide rights to the entire catalog of Dan Kennedy’s information products, including “The Magnetic Marketing System”, which has exceeded 20-million dollars in sales, and is one of the most popular and successful marketing “kits” ever provided to business owners and sales professionals.

Michael Kimble has also developed unique Licensing Programs, enabling individuals to own their own websites, website based catalog businesses, and other marketing businesses selling proven, popular info-products and utilizing tested, proven, copyright protected, proprietary advertisements, direct mail campaigns, audio tapes and websites --- without the costly, complex and time-consuming tasks of website and catalog development and production, product sourcing, hiring advertising copywriters, or manufacturing, inventorying and shipping products. Through these Licensing Programs, entrepreneurs are literally instantly set up in information businesses that are virtual “clones” of Michael’s successful operations.

As a result of his remarkable success, Michael is frequently invited to speak on information marketing, Internet marketing, Licensing, and joint venture marketing, although he accepts only a few such invitations each year. Occasionally, he also accepts private clients for consulting, in Austin.
