Interview With Normal Joe From ImWithJoe.com
October 2, 2008
The blogosphere is packed with different types of people and very different personalities. When it comes to the Internet marketing niches and “make money online” niches, we can all agree that it’s all saturated and we’re pretty much tired of the same ol’ stuff.
But there’s still hope. That’s right . . . Hope!
My good friend Joe, from ImWithJoe.com has changed all of that.
He has brought something new to the blogoshere. Something refreshing, and added a little vlogging twist to it. I must say I enjoy reading this blog and Joe’s personality truly shines through his videos — you will be drawn like a magnet.
If you don’t already know who Normal Joe is, he’s all over the place, and you’ve probably been living under a rock — 
So it’s not surprise I had to interview this up and coming entrepreneur.
So without further ado, my interview with Normal Joe.
1. Who is Normal Joe?
I’m just a regular dude man. Trying to document my journey to employment freedom….working for myself. I just want to show people you can be successful as a regular dude, nothing special you know?
2. Why are you so popular?
I didn’t think I was that popular! I think people like me cuz they can relate. I’m like the dude you’d hang out with, somebody you could see yourself chilling with.
3 .What would you say separates you and your blog from other Internet marketing blogs in the blogosphere?
I don’t care! Seriously, I don’t follow the codes, I don’t do what everyone else does, I just be myself. People can tell when you’re being real man, my videos allow people to connect with me.
4. Why’d you start I’mWithJoe.com?
It was just a place to document all my trials and success, as well as
what I learn on my journey through various online business projects.
5. You get tons of comments. How did you build your community so fast?
I make people feel welcome man! I respond to every single comment, no matter how big or small. I show people that I really value their input.
6. Everyone loves your videos. Would you say vlogging is part of what made you such a hit on the Web?
Yes, it shows people me, and that is something that only video can do. Without video, I don’t think people would connect with me as much, because my personality is just something you have to experience.
7. Where do you find those sponsors for your videos?
hahahaha, man, that’s some trade secrets man. Sometimes I tell yall in the video, others man you know….hushy hushy.
8. Can you make me a sammich?
yeah man! What kind of sammich you want yo? We’ll hook it up.
9. Where do you see I’mWithJoe.com a year from now?
All up in ya area! I see it with a new pro level theme, more readers, and a larger community. I see me making more income from referrals and stuff that I use or promote. I see more people wanting to advertise or paying to get involved with the movement. I see me making more friends like you!
10. When you started your blog, did you anticipate it would be this popular?
Never! I just wanted to document a journey you know? But, once I saw what was out there, I knew people wanted something unique and different, because that’s what I wanted. So, I gave them myself, it seems to be
going well.
11. Joe, it’s been a pleasure interviewing you, is there anything you would like to add? Any final statements?
Thanks man! I know you don’t get down with everyone so it’s a true honor yo! I’m always looking to meet new folks and see them get involved in my community so, everyone come on over to the blog if you want a change of pace and something different from all the other “make money online while blogging like everyone else because I am afraid to be myself” type of thing lol.
Holla at Normal Joe!
I hope everyone liked the interview with Normal Joe, and now is the time when I tell you guys to check out his blog ImWithJoe.com — so go check it out!
Joe, thanks again for having the interviews and sharing a little bit about yourself with our readers; it truly is appreciated — and make that a ham and swiss with mayonnaise and tomatoes — hold the lettuce.
Thanks for doing this man, it was dope! I had fun answering those questions, and truly appreciate it man! Keep up the good work.
I’m with Joe! That’s for real. Dude is crazy unique and you cannot find this stuff anywhere on the net. He is not taking himself seriously, but he is sincere in his delivery and it really comes across.
The first time I say a Joe video, I was hooked. It was crazy. I was stalking his site just waiting for another video to post up because I had to see what he was going to do next. The sponsors, the sammiches, the King….that one is only for you die hard Joe fans…..the lessons, the insight, the community, and comments are awesome….not to mention he shares his site growth with you and you would not believe the numbers. It is insane.
Whatever you are doing Joe, keep it going. I will be sure to stick close to you and get that “secret sauce” to your success!
Normal Joe – Anytime dude! You deserve it man! I had fun writing those questions!
Freddie – I’m with Joe too! Tell me about it. Joe’s doing his own thing and separating himself from everyone else! Innovation is key to success!
Yeah, those videos are awesome! And them sammiches too! He’s really attracting a great fan base and he’s a great example of how it should be done. I’m learning from the Joe!
Thanks for stopping by Freddie!
I cracked up hard when I first saw one of Joe’s vids. It was crazy. I didn’t even care what the content was about after that. I was hooked on sammiches and griddlecakes.
Joe’s awesomeness is in his REAL-ness. He lays it all out there and is just himself. It’s AWESOME. His vlogging is an art form. I really hope to learn from him and start some vlogging of my own. That guy DESERVES A SAMMICH!
He’s the kind of guy you really hope to meet up with in person some day!
I think it is hilarious how Joe is really going to be known for his SAMMICHES!!!
Suite J is showing that he has been a long time follower of Joe because he mentioned GRIDDLECAKES!!! LOL! I haven’t heard Joe talk about slangin griddlecakes in a minute.
Classic!
