Many people are beginning to realize that these economic problems may be worse than we thought. My guess (and this is only my opinion) is that we could be in for years of harder times. So what’s the best way to “recession proof” yourself? In these situations, there are two basic strategies:
- Put yourself in a position to make more money
- Spend less money
I recommend you do both of these things. However, the problem is that boosting your career almost always requires some kind of financial investment. For example, studies show that boosting your vocabulary is one of the best ways to boost your income and career. This is ESPECIALLY important in hard times when competition for jobs goes through the roof. But who wants to go and spend $300 on a vocabulary program with a recession looming?
At eReflect we have been giving this question some serious thought and we have come up with something that I think you will find very exciting…
The thousands of people who have responded to my emails already know that Confidence In Context is set to be THE most financially sensible way to improve your vocabulary. This is because it’s a monthly program that only requires an investment of 24.95 each month - as opposed to hitting you with a $200-$300 fee before you even know what you are getting. But the economy has worsened significantly since we first announced Confidence In Context, so we have decided to respond.
Here’s what we are going to do:
If you are one of the 200 people accepted into our platinum membership, we are going to give you your first month of training FREE (you only need to pay $2.97 postage and handling). And, if you like, you can even cancel your membership as soon as you receive your free month with nothing more to pay!
Why are we doing this?
Well first and foremost, this is our response to the economic situation. Even though we know that the majority of our customers can easily afford $24.95 per month and think it’s a bargain considering what we are offering, we still realise that many people will appreciate a “good deal” in these uncertain times. In other words we are simply offering a better deal (the first month free) in response to the recent economic events.
Second, it also has the benefit of letting you “try before you buy”. Of course we hope you stay subscribed… And we also know that when you see the amazing results this program delivers you won’t be able to get enough. But for just in case you have any lingering doubts, this “free month” will allow you to try a full month of the program for only $2.97.
Please remember that the best way to maximize your chance of a position in the platinum program (with the free month) is to get on our priority notification list. So please do this now by clicking on the following link and filling out the form on our main page:

Confidence In Context receives rave reviews in industry “sneak preview”
October 16th, 2008
Recently we offered a “sneak preview” of the Confidence in Context program to a select group of online writing, vocabulary, and education specialists. The response was so overwhelmingly good, that many experts even gave us their opinions in writing. Here is a sample of some of the feedback we received:
Jennifer Stewart from Write101.com writes:
It’s a frightening thought that every word you write or utter is like a neon sign, sending out messages about your education, your competence and your status to the whole world. So it’s no wonder that there are lots of programs on the market to help you build a better and stronger vocabulary.
The thing is that the majority of these programs are very much the “same old, same old” … or at least, they were. But I’ve just been given a sneak preview of a program that’s based on the latest research into how we learn words.
If you stop and think about it, as children, we didn’t learn words by sitting at a desk in front of a text book, did we? We didn’t learn words by listening to a tape drone on and on with definitions.
We learnt by hearing words in context … as they’re used in everyday conversations. And that’s exactly what this new system of vocabulary training does — it triggers your brain’s natural word-learning processes so you not only recall the right word for the right occasion, but you also know exactly how to use it in context.
The words are organised according to themes, such as words you could use when going for an interview, words you could use in difficult situations etc. Each audio has an introduction that explains the words for that set. You’re given a detailed definition, examples of the different parts of the word, synonyms and antonyms where appropriate, an explanation of the origin of the word and examples of when you could expect to use it. Then there’s an extended conversation that focuses on that particular set of “ultimate” words — words the experts agree are important for anyone who wants to be taken seriously as a powerful communicator. By listening to the words used in conversation in a variety of ways, your brain is able to recall them quickly when you need them.
Finally, you have a series of exercises that you can complete using the CD and the workbook and revise using the set of printable flash cards.

At last - a product that can help me to learn to use new words in REAL live situations! With the old methods of vocabulary building I could learn the definitions of new words but I never seemed to have the confidence to USE them in conversation. With these new recordings I am learning with no real effort - I just listen, and then I find myself using the words without even thinking about it! Thanks for making such an awesome course!
Free vocabulary Mp3 - and other news
October 8th, 2008
First, I’d like to thank everyone for their positive emails and comments. We have been so caught up in the last-minute details of the Confidence In Context program, that we only just approved all your comments from the last blog post. So if you commented there you will now be able to see your comment on the post.
In the last week, we have also been swamped by emails asking more questions about the course. Again, I apologize that due to the sheer number of emails received, I haven’t been able to answer each one individually. However the two main questions currently are “when is the course going to be released?” and “how do I join?”
We haven’t yet announced the official release date. However, we will announce this very soon… and you can expect to see the course going live this month. Keep an eye on your email in coming weeks for more details.
You can join by being one of the first 200 people to apply. People who are on the “priority notification list” will get the first chance to apply. After that if there are any positions left they will be offered to people who are not on the “priority notification list”. If you are one of the many who signed up during our official survey you can relax - you are on the priority notification list already.
If you are not on the priority notification list, you can join now by filling out the form on the main website here:
Finally, we have recorded a free vocabulary mp3 for you. Although this is not part of the Confidence In Context Course and does not contain any laser-targeted conversations, it DOES show you specific techniques that you can use - even if you don’t get into the Confidence In Context course. For those who do get in, it will act as a good introduction and a primer on the motivations for creating the course.

Free Confidence In Context E-Book Report
October 2nd, 2008
In this FREE E-Book Report I reveal the results of our latest research on vocabulary building and how you can use these techniques to improve your vocabulary immediately. For now we are offering this as a free download. So please download it while you can and print it out. Grab a cup of your favourite beverage and read it all the way through. When you have done so you will have strategies that will allow you to improve your vocabulary immediately.
Why are we giving this away for free?
Two reasons…
First, many people who apply for Confidence In Context will miss out. As I have previously said, initially we are only offering 200 positions. This free E-Book will offer some of the benefits of the coaching program to the people who don’t get in.
Second, for those who do get access to the program, this report will give you a “primer” or “quick-start-guide” that will put you in a great position to take full advantage of your coaching.
Frequently Asked Questions
September 19th, 2008
Since we announced Confidence In Context, we have been literally flooded with questions and requests for more information. First I’d like to thank everyone for their interest and apologize sincerely for not being able to answer you all individually.
That said, I have personally read every email and question we have received - and it’s been a really enjoyable experience doing so. This post aims to answer the most common questions. If you require any more information, please feel free to leave a comment below or email me directly.
Can anyone join this program?
Yes. And No. Let me explain: Initially we are only opening this program to 200 platinum members. Only current customers and subscribers will be eligible to apply for one of these positions. Currently we have only setup the infrastructure to serve 200 subscribers. We think it’s only fair that we give our loyal Ultimate Vocabulary customers and mini-course/video subscribers first priority.
In short, if you are receiving emails about Confidence In Context it means that you are a registered subscriber and you are eligible to apply. Platinum members will also receive special bonuses and be “grandfathered in”…. meaning they will receive free lifetime updates to the course. We may open a more basic version of the course to the general public at a later date. However, we will only be offering 200 platinum memberships and once they are gone they will be gone forever.
We will do our absolute best to offer all 200 positions. However, the most important thing is to make sure we can give our platinum customers the highest level of service and training. Therefore we reserve the right to reduce this number. We may do this if we feel it’s necessary in order to give existing members the best experience possible. This program is not for the “masses”. It’s an exclusive program that will only be offered to a limited number of members.
Who is the target audience of this program?
Have you ever learned a powerful word, but felt that you weren’t quite confident enough to use it in a conversation? Have you ever had the perfect word on the “tip of your tongue”, but when it popped into your head, the opportunity to use it was gone? Have you ever had trouble remembering new words, or learned a new word, only to forget it when you needed it most?
If you answered yes to any of these questions then Confidence In Context is definitely for you. We don’t just teach you the words. We make sure you are confident using them in the correct context. The program teaches powerful vocabulary words that are ideal for:
- Business are career success for English speakers
- Improved confidence, communication and persuasion abilities
- Improved academic results, and better writing
- Improved scores in standardized tests such as the SAT and GRE
- Intermediate to advanced ESL students.
Because the program teaches English words that are very powerful, we don’t recommend the program for people who are just beginning to speak English as a second language. However, it will work perfectly for anyone who has conversation-level English.
Is this program recorded in American English?
Yes this program is written, recorded, and produced in the USA. All voices and accents are North American.
How exactly does Confidence In Context teach me to use words in context?
Here’s exactly what you experience during a Confidence-In-Context audio-coaching session:
- Ultra-Deep-Descriptions – First you are introduced to your target words with ultra-deep descriptions. Note that these are much more than just definitions. These descriptions are specially designed to help you soak up your target words as quickly and efficiently as possible. By the time you have finished your Ultra-Deep-Descriptions, you have already have gone deeper than any other audio program takes you… but this is just the beginning…
- Laser-Targeted Conversations – Next, you are exposed to extended laser-targeted conversations. Conversations with powerful communicators actually using the words in context. These are far from regular conversations. Rather, they are designed to zoom in on your target words with laser precision, triggering the natural word-learning process in your brain.
- Immersion Tests – Finally, you are given a special memory boosting tests to ensure your target words are deeply embedded in your memory. These tests function as a final revision. They also boost your confidence as you see how quickly you have learned your new words.
How long does the course last?
Because Confidence In Context is a monthly program, many people have asked “how long will it last”. The answer is simple: as long as you like! Confidence In Context is an ongoing training program. We teach you for as long as you want to improve your vocabulary. You get new training materials each month including 70 minutes of audio training, a printable workbook, and printable flash cards. There is no minimum subscription period and no contract. You can unsubscribe at any time.
What results can I expect?
You can expect to have dramatically improved communication skills within a month of starting the program. The aim is to put you in the top 5% of verbal communicators by training you to use new powerful words in context each month. Not only will you learn hundreds of new words, you will learn to use them fluently and confidently in real conversations, email, writing, and presentations.
How much time will I need to dedicate to this program?
Any amount time you dedicate to this program, no matter how little, will benefit you greatly. However, we recommend putting aside 15 minutes per day to work on your vocabulary with Confidence In Context. The audio training is broken up into convenient 10-15 minute chunks so you can learn at your own pace.
How much will this program cost?
Right now you are probably thinking that Confidence In Context is going to cost a small fortune. And the truth is that we could charge a LOT for this course because it’s many times more comprehensive than courses that cost $200-$300 and more. However, one of our aims is to make this program affordable and accessible to everyone who genuinely wants to improve their vocabulary. Therefore, the cost of Confidence in Context will be only $24.95 per month - that’s just over 80 cents per day! This was also one of the reasons we made it a monthly program - there is no large up-front commitment. You can improve your vocabulary for as long as you like and then simply unsubscribe.
Why is this a monthly program?
Improving your vocabulary is not something you just do once and forget about. It’s an ongoing process that needs guidance and support. Through our experience of helping more than 20,000 people improve their vocabulary, we have found that ongoing motivation is a major challenge that many people face.
With Confidence In Context you have constant guidance and support to help you achieve amazing results. Before you know where you are, you’ll look back and realise just how much your vocabulary and communication power has improved as a member of Confidence In Context.
The other advantage of a monthly program is that it makes improving your vocabulary more affordable than ever. We don’t ask for a large up-front fee. You only invest a small subscription each month and you can stop whenever you like.
Can I listen to the training on my IPod or MP3 player?
Each month your materials are delivered to you on an Audio CD. Each months training also comes with an “Unlimited Mp3 Licence”. This means that you can transfer the CD to your IPod or other digital device as many times as you like - without restrictions. When you sign up for the course we give you detailed instructions on how to put the material on your digital device. Confidence In Context is compatible with both Mac and PC based devices.
Does this program complement Ultimate Vocabulary Software?
Ultimate Vocabulary software is not in anyway necessary or required in this program. However, Ultimate Vocabulary owners will be happy to know that Confidence In Context can work very well with Ultimate Vocabulary software.
Confidence In Context is a monthly audio-based training program that focuses on using powerful words in context. Ultimate Vocabulary is a powerful tool that provides multiple learning strategies and allows you to keep track of custom word lists. Both programs will be valuable to anyone serious about powerful communication.

Yes. And No. Let me explain: Initially we are only opening this program to 200 platinum members. Only current customers and subscribers will be eligible to apply for one of these positions. Currently we have only setup the infrastructure to serve 200 subscribers. We think it’s only fair that we give our loyal Ultimate Vocabulary customers and mini-course/video subscribers first priority.
In short, if you are receiving emails about Confidence In Context it means that you are a registered subscriber and you are eligible to apply. Platinum members will also receive special bonuses and be “grandfathered in”…. meaning they will receive free lifetime updates to the course. We may open a more basic version of the course to the general public at a later date. However, we will only be offering 200 platinum memberships and once they are gone they will be gone forever.
We will do our absolute best to offer all 200 positions. However, the most important thing is to make sure we can give our platinum customers the highest level of service and training. Therefore we reserve the right to reduce this number. We may do this if we feel it’s necessary in order to give existing members the best experience possible. This program is not for the “masses”. It’s an exclusive program that will only be offered to a limited number of members.
Who is the target audience of this program?
Have you ever learned a powerful word, but felt that you weren’t quite confident enough to use it in a conversation? Have you ever had the perfect word on the “tip of your tongue”, but when it popped into your head, the opportunity to use it was gone? Have you ever had trouble remembering new words, or learned a new word, only to forget it when you needed it most?
If you answered yes to any of these questions then Confidence In Context is definitely for you. We don’t just teach you the words. We make sure you are confident using them in the correct context. The program teaches powerful vocabulary words that are ideal for:
- Business are career success for English speakers
- Improved confidence, communication and persuasion abilities
- Improved academic results, and better writing
- Improved scores in standardized tests such as the SAT and GRE
- Intermediate to advanced ESL students.
Because the program teaches English words that are very powerful, we don’t recommend the program for people who are just beginning to speak English as a second language. However, it will work perfectly for anyone who has conversation-level English.
Is this program recorded in American English?
Yes this program is written, recorded, and produced in the USA. All voices and accents are North American.
How exactly does Confidence In Context teach me to use words in context?
Here’s exactly what you experience during a Confidence-In-Context audio-coaching session:
- Ultra-Deep-Descriptions – First you are introduced to your target words with ultra-deep descriptions. Note that these are much more than just definitions. These descriptions are specially designed to help you soak up your target words as quickly and efficiently as possible. By the time you have finished your Ultra-Deep-Descriptions, you have already have gone deeper than any other audio program takes you… but this is just the beginning…
- Laser-Targeted Conversations – Next, you are exposed to extended laser-targeted conversations. Conversations with powerful communicators actually using the words in context. These are far from regular conversations. Rather, they are designed to zoom in on your target words with laser precision, triggering the natural word-learning process in your brain.
- Immersion Tests – Finally, you are given a special memory boosting tests to ensure your target words are deeply embedded in your memory. These tests function as a final revision. They also boost your confidence as you see how quickly you have learned your new words.
How long does the course last?
Because Confidence In Context is a monthly program, many people have asked “how long will it last”. The answer is simple: as long as you like! Confidence In Context is an ongoing training program. We teach you for as long as you want to improve your vocabulary. You get new training materials each month including 70 minutes of audio training, a printable workbook, and printable flash cards. There is no minimum subscription period and no contract. You can unsubscribe at any time.
What results can I expect?
You can expect to have dramatically improved communication skills within a month of starting the program. The aim is to put you in the top 5% of verbal communicators by training you to use new powerful words in context each month. Not only will you learn hundreds of new words, you will learn to use them fluently and confidently in real conversations, email, writing, and presentations.
How much time will I need to dedicate to this program?
Any amount time you dedicate to this program, no matter how little, will benefit you greatly. However, we recommend putting aside 15 minutes per day to work on your vocabulary with Confidence In Context. The audio training is broken up into convenient 10-15 minute chunks so you can learn at your own pace.
How much will this program cost?
Right now you are probably thinking that Confidence In Context is going to cost a small fortune. And the truth is that we could charge a LOT for this course because it’s many times more comprehensive than courses that cost $200-$300 and more. However, one of our aims is to make this program affordable and accessible to everyone who genuinely wants to improve their vocabulary. Therefore, the cost of Confidence in Context will be only $24.95 per month - that’s just over 80 cents per day! This was also one of the reasons we made it a monthly program - there is no large up-front commitment. You can improve your vocabulary for as long as you like and then simply unsubscribe.
Why is this a monthly program?
Improving your vocabulary is not something you just do once and forget about. It’s an ongoing process that needs guidance and support. Through our experience of helping more than 20,000 people improve their vocabulary, we have found that ongoing motivation is a major challenge that many people face.
With Confidence In Context you have constant guidance and support to help you achieve amazing results. Before you know where you are, you’ll look back and realise just how much your vocabulary and communication power has improved as a member of Confidence In Context.
The other advantage of a monthly program is that it makes improving your vocabulary more affordable than ever. We don’t ask for a large up-front fee. You only invest a small subscription each month and you can stop whenever you like.
Can I listen to the training on my IPod or MP3 player?
Each month your materials are delivered to you on an Audio CD. Each months training also comes with an “Unlimited Mp3 Licence”. This means that you can transfer the CD to your IPod or other digital device as many times as you like - without restrictions. When you sign up for the course we give you detailed instructions on how to put the material on your digital device. Confidence In Context is compatible with both Mac and PC based devices.
Does this program complement Ultimate Vocabulary Software?
Ultimate Vocabulary software is not in anyway necessary or required in this program. However, Ultimate Vocabulary owners will be happy to know that Confidence In Context can work very well with Ultimate Vocabulary software.
Confidence In Context is a monthly audio-based training program that focuses on using powerful words in context. Ultimate Vocabulary is a powerful tool that provides multiple learning strategies and allows you to keep track of custom word lists. Both programs will be valuable to anyone serious about powerful communication.

In this FREE E-Book Report I reveal the results of our latest research on vocabulary building and how you can use these techniques to improve your vocabulary immediately. For now we are offering this as a free download. So please download it while you can and print it out. Grab a cup of your favourite beverage and read it all the way through. When you have done so you will have strategies that will allow you to improve your vocabulary immediately.
Why are we giving this away for free?
Two reasons…
First, many people who apply for Confidence In Context will miss out. As I have previously said, initially we are only offering 200 positions. This free E-Book will offer some of the benefits of the coaching program to the people who don’t get in.
Second, for those who do get access to the program, this report will give you a “primer” or “quick-start-guide” that will put you in a great position to take full advantage of your coaching.
