Internet Marketing and Google Adsense Expert Joel Comm is in final production of an Apprentice-like Reality Show called - Next Internet Millionaire. Joel is a New York Times best-selling author (Adsense Code), internet guru, and international speaker.

While I’ve spoken at various conferences with Joel over the years it was only recently during Affiliate Summit - Miami that Joel and I had lunch and discussed some of our latest projects.

Joel asked me if I would fly to Loveland, Colorado and shoot an episode of Next Internet Millionaire - his latest venture. Since the production of the show is still underway I’m not at liberty to give specifics about my appearance, although I will say that it was a combo co-host / guest appearance and that it was one of the coolest experiences of my internet marketing life!

The Next Internet Millionaire is the first reality TV show that will be broadcast entirely over the web.

Similar in theme to other reality shows like American Idol and America’s Got Talent there was a multi-week open audition where thousands of contestants submitted videos, which were posted on YouTube for the world to see, about why they thought they should be the next internet millionaire, win $25K cash, and a multi-million dollar marketing partnership with Joel Comm.

After receiving thousands of videos, Joel cut the contestants down to the top 50 and then chose 12 finalists that were flown to Colorado for taping.

During each show, much like Survivor and the Apprentice, contestants compete in various tasks (again, I’m not yet allowed to say much here). However, the show also includes a really brilliant educational component where Joel flies in leading internet marketing experts from around the world to share insights on how to make millions of dollars online. In short, the show is like Apprentice with a hint of Survivor with the goal of finding (or creating) the Next Internet Millionaire.

When I arrived in Colorado I was amazed to find out that Next Internet Millionaire is being taped in an amazing 50,000 square foot warehouse / production studio - honestly, the venue felt like I was on a Hollywood set with multiple cameras shooting in every direction at all times.

For now I’ll say that I’m expecting to be on show seven (7) - this was the last week of production and the first show of the Next Internet Millionaire series will air LIVE around the middle of August 2007 - to learn more visit nextinternetmillionaire.com.

Stay tuned for more info!

Make sure to tune in to the show starting in mid August!
