Told my sis I'd teach her how to earn a little side income. You know ladies, a couple of hundred dollars can be used to buy makeup and such. I'm full time, she's completely new to the internet, not counting skills in checking her email and chatting in her favourite forums.
Gave her a super 7 day, 1 on 1 crash course on internet marketing... then would check on her next week. (I don't believe in spoon feeding too much, to be successful, we must learn quickly and become independent at the earliest possible.)
Let's see the results, for a complete newbie spending 20-45 minutes playing with the keyboard, fiddling with my instructions and chatting in forums rather then working (don't think I don't know sis! Her name's Sher-en by the way)...
Many "
online newbies" spend 6 months online and don't earn more then $10. They try Adsense, Affiliate Marketing, MLM, learn from ebooks that "to make money, you need to sell this ebook" ideas...(
the last one is especially sad, don't do it), so they say, its all a scam!
And I don't blame them, when there is so much noise and junk produced and promoted you don't know what really works...
Most people say its tough to make money online, well, you just need to learn and fail quickly(that's me) to find success, or spend time copying what genuinely successful people are doing (shortcut). Let me clarify the last statement,
its much safer for you not to do what people say but copy what they do! There is a HUGE difference, read that again till you get it!By the way, I feel that many of the internet marketing courses on the net can't guarantee your success. Out of 10, maybe 2 works. The important thing to know is that if you purchase any internet marketing course, be sure to do more then what the course tells you. This is because the same course is sold to many hundreds and thousands of people. If you want success, you must do more then what those other people are doing, do some changes, put some tweaks, make it different, innovate.
That takes some effort and it will pay off. And its harder to find success without investing in the right tools and learning how to
TRACK your results. Some tools work, others are recommended by affiliates who don't care whether the tools (
eg Blog Spam Tools DON'T WORK) work or not, they just want to make a commission from the sale of the tool to the unsuspecting, so do be discerning.
And once you find a method that works, Duplicate the method and put more effort! Repeat what works and a hundred will become two hundred, will become one thousand...
To your success!
