How to Make Affiliate Marketing Your Business From Home Part 1

December 28th, 2009

Affiliate marketing is also the name of the industry where a number of different types of companies and individuals are performing this form of internet marketing, including affiliate networks, affiliate management companies and in-house affiliate managers, specialized third party vendors, and various types of affiliates/publishers who promote the products and services of their partners. Affiliate marketing is a web-based marketing pattern in which a business pays affiliates for each visitor or customer brought about by the affiliate’s marketing attempts.

Affiliate Marketing is an incredibly inexpensive and effective way to grow a Business From Home and (depending on the type) has an incredibly low-risk factor for business. Affiliate Marketing is basically a form of advertising and commission, but the affiliate does not move or sell the product. Affiliate marketing is the original and clearest form of performance-based media and a critical weapon in the customer acquisition arsenal for many online retailers. It is a great way of earning a full-time or part-time income from home selling other people’s merchandise and having the back-up of a very profitable industry.

Affiliate marketing in the UK alone is predicted to drive over US$6 billion in online sales for 2008, with commissions and fees to affiliates topping US$400 million (e-consultancy Internet Statistics Compendium 2008). Affiliate marketing’s rapid growth in Europe has made it difficult for retailers to find in-house expertise to handle their programs.

The evident rewards of affiliate marketing are that merchants have a larger environment producing more products and services signifying more sales. The major advantages of affiliate marketing are:

1. No inventory is involved

2. No customer service issues

3. No orders to send

Affiliate marketing is a great way for people with no previous Internet exposure to begin their own Business From Home with very low expenses. It is a special way of earning online and provides people with a recognized online business. Affiliate marketing has become  a sophisticated sales and marketing program that can be incorporated into opt-in email lists, price equivalence tools, shopping directories, critique sites, cash-back networks and voucher sites, just to name a few.

Affiliates are the first to take advantage of original upcoming trends and technologies where traditional advertisers do not dare to be active. Affiliate programs take out the dirty work of monitoring traffic, sales trailing, creating reports, doing the payouts to the affiliate Web sites and legal events. Affiliate marketing is projected to earn businesses more money by increasing traffic to their Web site. Affiliates are often paid on commission basis, although other merchants would opt to pay a fixed fee. Direct email marketing, viral and affiliate marketing are cost-effective chances to improve reach, but do not even think about diving in without a partner who comprehends their place in your united marketing communications drive.  Affiliate marketing is easy to repeat by following the proven system and right mentor.

The commission percentages that come with affiliate marketing are usually quite high which again provides for a great way to make money online. The keys to success in affiliate marketing are knowing what you are doing, formulating a wide and well-crafted advertising plan, and knowing the relationships between your Web site, search engines, PPC advertising, and campaign methodology. Profits in affiliate marketing are directly proportional to how much website traffic the affiliate can establish. Affiliate Marketing is here to stay and is a viable option for Stay-At-Home-Moms, Retirees not wanting to really retire yet or need to supplement their retirement income and for the entrepreneur who wants the freedom of a Business From Home but not all the headaches of a typical business.

Affiliate Marketing Secrets

December 28th, 2009

There seems to be alot of hype about making big money online. Everything seems so simple and yet, alot of people is going back to their daily work after they fail miserably in their venture for success.

Everyday, we hear about people making 4 figures or even 5 figures online while some simply could not eve make t past the $100 mark. What is the difference and why is it so that some is able to succeed and some not. Is the hype for real ?

First off, let me address a few things that, Yes. The hype is for real. The internet is a tool that reach over millions of users each and every day. If you can even get 0.1% of the market share, and your product is selling at $27, you can still make a hefty $27,000 ! 

The simpliest form of Internet Marketing is simply Affiliate Marketing. That is to say, you can make money off the internet EVEN if you do not have your own product, website, list etc. 

I have mentioned in one of my articles that the wealth creation formula is Leverage. So likewise, the keyword to succeed in Affiliate Marketing is, leverage !

So How does leverage have to do with Affiliate Marketing ? 

Build A List: The most important thing you always have to note is to build a list. Alot of people misunderstand that you need to have your own product to have a list. The question to ask is, if you have given so much time and effort to advertise and drive traffic to promote a particular product, would you want to do the same again when you need to promote a new product in the coming months ?

If you have build a successful list of 2000 subscribers in 6 months. When you wish to romote a new product, you can go back to your usual marketing method togenerate more customers and also simply send a recommendation to your 2000 subscribers of which, they are already potential buyers. This is call, recycling your list and you are leveraging your efforts which you have done for the first product.

Endless Traffic: Why do you advertise ? Because you want to bring interested people to your page. Because you bring them to our site, it also means you have a chance of making a sale. As such, the law of averages applies. If your conversion rate is 30%, you will make 3 sale for every 10 person who visited your site.

Now, you can leverage on getting endless traffic on sources like ezines, email advertisment, forums etc. You see, the medium is already there for you. These are the place people will go to either to read up an article or participate in a forum discussion. Your ad/link is there for as long as the medium is there. Therefore, you are leveraging on mediums that is already well known and visted by many, thereby increasing your chance of free traffic.

There are other ways of getting endless source of Free Traffic from the web. You heard it right, free traffic if you are work on a budget.

Joint Venture: Now, you have endless traffic to your site, which continues to build your list. Once you have a decent list, you can even seek to ask for joint venture with other people or gurus of your niche market. So now, you use your list to “exchange” their list, in one way, its leveraging on his efforts in the past and he is leveraging your effort. One way or the other, both of you win in the trade off.

The good thing is, now you have new subscribers from his list after you made a new sale. That means that you now have a bigger customer base and not only did you earn a decent amount from your last Joint Venture, you hve just give yourself a bigger chance of a bigger pay cheque in your next product ! 

There are alot of other ways in which you can use to bring more success into your online business. Some of which are found in Ewen Chia’s Secret Affiliate Weapon which I highly recommend as good read for everyone starting out in Affiliate marketing.  

The key point is again, Leverage. No matter what you are doing, if you can instaill leverage into your business, you are in fact building a future or business in a “less effort, more money” theory.

Joint Venture Secrets for Internet Marketers

December 27th, 2009

At today’s mastermind meeting, Joe, Bill, Craig and I got into a long discussion about Joint Venture proposals. This is a subject that my coaching clients are struggling with at Your Portable Empire University, and really, most beginning marketers struggle with.

It really hit home to me how lucky I was to be sitting at that table.

Joe Vitale is one of the fathers of the internet marketing business, and just keeps growing from amazing success to amazing success. His goal is to be the world’s first trillionaire. I wouldn’t bet against him.

Craig Perrine is one of the up-and-coming gurus. The gurus all know him, and respect him. He’s one promotion away from being a guru himself. He’s also got a dangerously skewed sense of humor.

Bill Hibbler is one of my oldest friends. He’s the one that got me into internet marketing, and introduced me to Joe. He’s quietly built up a very impressive internet empire. He also used to manage rock stars- so we share the music biz connection.

To get these guys together for a consultation would cost thousands of dollars an hour.

Let me share the wealth with you, by letting you listen in to a conversation we had about joint ventures.

There is a temptation for new internet marketers to use the “shotgun” approach when they try to set up Joint Venture deals. In the shotgun approach, you send a form letter to everybody you can think of, asking them to promote your product.

We were unanimous on this. The shotgun approach NEVER WORKS.

There. That’s all you need to know about the shotgun approach. Don’t waste your time

Bill reminded me of a time, 8-10 years ago, when I tried the shotgun approach in the music business. I put together a promo kit, with pictures, press clippings, and my latest CD and mailed it to record companies. Wasted several hundred dollars. I got no response.

Later, I got a record deal, publishing deal, and a couple of great agents- but I didn’t get them by using the shotgun approach.

Well, what does work?

We all agreed that building a relationship was important.

So, I asked Joe, Bill, and Craig to imagine they were sitting in… Cleveland, Texas, or some other backwater spot, and they wanted to establish a relationship with a potential JV partner. What would they do?

I want to make it very clear that the first step is to identify who you want to establish the relationship with. You need to focus on each potential JV partner one-at-a-time.

Here are the steps they would take:

1. get on their list.

2. subscribe to all of their newsletters and read them. You want to know what their niche is, what their interests are, and- this is very important- what they like. More on this in a minute.

3. send them an occasional email telling them that you like their ezine, and telling them exactly what you liked. quote the ezine or newsletter.

4. once they’ve responded to an email, and acknowledge you, offer them a free article or ebook to use as a bonus for their promotion. It’s important that your bonus has some relation to their promotion.

5. politely ask if they’d be interested in promoting your product. Do NOT send attachments. Do NOT send a long email with your biography. Do send a polite request stressing what’s in it for them.

6. repeat step five politely but persistently.

I’ve seen this work with Joe, and I believe that it will work with most gurus IF… and this is a big IF… the product you want to promote is actually a great product and it is the sort of thing his customers will actually buy.

For example, Craig’s customers are savvy, experienced internet marketers who are interested in the nuts and bolts techniques of list building. My ebook, The Absolute Beginner’s Guide to Internet Wealth, would be totally inappropriate for his list.

Joe, on the other hand, has a list of people who will find that book very useful. He’ll be promoting it soon.

Now, look at step two- where it talks about finding out what they like.

Now, close the door. Make sure you’re alone. I’m about to tell you a secret…

You can get a guru’s attention by bribing them.

This is a secret. Don’t tell anybody. You didn’t hear it from me.

It’s true.

Here are some of the bribes that have worked:

- single malt scotch

- italian leather coat(s)

- a case of oreos

- vintage books

- steak dinner

- gourmet coffee

- official baseball-team cap (worked wonders with a Japanese record exec.)

- twenty-dollar bill

- maduro churchill cigars (I live in hope.)

note- clever works better than expensive. You can’t buy these guys. You can amuse them. If their passion is coffee, and you send them a pound of blue kona grown on a small coffee plantation, dried and roasted by loving hands- they’ll think of you as they drink the coffee, and they will read your proposal. The point is that you cared enough to learn about them, and learn what they like- and send it to them. Don’t go buy a hundred pounds of coffee and send it to a hundred gurus. Find the one who is passionate about coffee and concentrate on him.

Or find the one who has a sweet tooth for oreos, and send him a case.

(disclaimer: this is word of mouth. Hearsay. I have no evidence of anyone ever receiving or responding to a bribe. If I did, it was years ago and the statute of limitations has run on it. If it ever happened. In the case of the case of oreos, the evidence is long gone- his son ate ‘em.)

A bribe will not guarantee that the guru will promote your product.

However, some of these guys get dozens of offers a day. It’s a full time job just reading the emails.

If you send your proposal FEDEX, with a memorable bribe (remember, you’ve researched them to find out what they like), you greatly increase the chances of your proposal actually getting read.

It’s still up to you to create a great product, and offer it to marketers who actually have access to the people who will buy it. Be sure to stress the benefits to the list-owner and his list. This is not the place to give your life history, or beg for help. Desperation does not sell.

A quick and easy way to build a relationship, and create a product, is to interview or co-write with your potential JV partner. The less work they actually have to do, the more likely they are to agree to your proposal.

Why would you do this?

1. When people see your name associated with a guru’s name, there is a perception that you are worth listening to.

2. It gets the guru emotionally involved in the project, and he’ll do what it takes to make it successful.

3. The first one is the hardest. Once you’ve successfully worked with one guru, it’s much easier to connect with, and work with, others.

4. You get to “cream” the guru’s list. You can build your own list by capturing the names of people who show interest in the product you create with the guru.

This led to a discussion of other problems beginning internet marketers have.

Craig said it best, “If you are currently broke, you have no business creating or marketing success products.”

The funniest JV proposal any of us have ever received said, “I’ve got a great marketing course, I just don’t know how to market it.” It’s actually become famous in guru circles as the ultimate bad example.

Bill followed up, “The internet marketing niche is full. Not only is there no room for anyone else to market products in that niche, if you do compete in that niche you’re competing against the best marketers on the planet. You don’t stand a chance.”

I can tell this to my coaching clients until I’m blue in the face, and they’ll still try it. I don’t understand.

Your chance of success is higher in just about any other niche.

The trick is to discover what you’re actually good at, and sell that.

What are your skills? Be honest about where you are now.

Craig, again: “Do you like being lied to? If you’re marketing success products, and you’re not successful- you’re lying.”

Craig had the solution- “There are two kinds of people in internet marketing: marketers and product developers. You’re probably a product developer. Find what you’re good at, and make a product out of that.”

This led to a discussion about product development.

It’s easy.

If you like to write, and you write well, it’s even easier.

If you don’t like to write, or don’t write well, get an audio recorder and record interviews. You can record interviews over the phone. You can make camtasia videos and sell those. A cheap video recorder is good enough to make professional videos- the bar isn’t very high, because you need to compress the videos so they can be downloaded.

Somebody brought up the story of Joe Kumar, who was a broke student who lived in Singapore. He emailed a bunch of gurus and asked them a simple question about marketing. He knew that getting an answer to an email was easier than any other form of gathering information.

He also figured out that the gurus he interviewed would be emotionally involved with the product, and would be motivated to see it succeed. When the product was ready to market, his interview subjects became his joint-venture partners.

He made a pile of money. His story after that is kind of sad, but is worth learning about. Do a google search-

This is a great business model. Joe and I used it when we created “The Myth of Passive Income.”

We bounced this around- that’s the beauty of mastermind meetings. The energy just swirls around the room.

One of the ideas that came out of this swirling energy- what if an overweight person interviewed a group of weight-loss experts, and created a product from the interviews? Then he could write an ezine to document his/her progress using the advice the weight-loss experts gave him. You could sell a lot of these.

What kinds of synergy can you create between Joint Ventures and products?

December 27th, 2009

I want to share some very well kept affiliate marketing secrets with you in this article. These secrets have been kept “hush, hush” for a very long time now because they actually WORK. As a matter of fact, I’m probably going to have a few dozen super affiliates screamimg at me by tommorow because I let the cat out of the bag, but you know what? I don’t care anymore. I’ve seen so many new people come online, including me, and get ripped of and taken for a ride again and again that I’m tired of it and it’s time that everyone knew the truth about these affiliate marketing secrets. Are you ready? Here goes nothing…

The first thing that you need to do to become successful as an affiliate marketer is to find a mentor. Find someone else that is DOING what you want to do and mimic their success. You’ll probably want to buy their material and study how they do things, after which, you might want to hire them to mentor you personally. Most people are not cheap, but sometimes you will hit a crossroads where the the book or course either doesn’t answer your questions clearly enough or you want to make absolutely certain that you are on the right track. It would be horrible to invest several weeks or months worth of time and effort, only to discover that you missed a crucial step or that you didn’t do a step correctly. It’s worth every penny having someone mentor you.

The next thing that you want to do is take massive ACTION. This may be the most important step of all. Many people come online with the impression that there is some kind of magic formula for creating wealth. Well, I’ll share something with you. There is a formula and it’s used in some way by every successful affiliate marketer on the Internet. It’s called “hard work” and it’s very effective. As a matter of fact, when this formula is applied on a regular basis, over time it works just like magic. You’ll magically see your income grow and grow.

Alrightty then, I’ve spilled the beans. Are you ready to get off your rear end and get to work now? Are you fired up? You should be. I’ve never shared these affiliate marketing secrets with anyone before and now that you know them it would be a shame if you let your new knowledge go to waste. The future is yours for the taking, if you’ll just take action. The choice is yours.

The 3 Things You Must Know!

 

Without These Three Things Your Dead In The Water  

Now every affiliate marketer is always looking for the successful market that gives the biggest paycheck. Sometimes they think it is a magic formula that is readily available for them. Actually, it is more complicated than that. It is just good marketing practices that have been proven over years of hard work and dedication.

There are tactics that have worked before with online marketing and is continuing to work in the online affiliate marketing world of today. With these top three marketing tips, you will be able to able to increase your sales and survive in the affiliate marketing online.

What are these three tactics?

1. Using Unique Web Pages To Promote  Each Separate Product You Are Marketing.

Do not lump all of it together just to save some money on web hosting. It is best to have a site focusing on each and every product and nothing more.

Always include product reviews on the website so visitors will have an initial understanding on what the product can do to those who buys them. Also include testimonials from users who have already tried the product. Be sure that these customers are more than willing to allow you to use their names and photos on the site of the specific product you are marketing.

You can also write articles highlighting the uses of the product and include them on the website as an additional page. Make the pages attractive compelling and include calls to act on the information. Each headline should attract the readers to try and read more, even contact you. Highlight your special points. This will help your readers to learn what the page is about and will want to find out more.

2. Offer Free Reports To Your Readers.

If possible position them at the very top side of your page so it they simply cannot be missed. Try to create autoresponder messages that will be mailed to those who input their personal information into your sign up box. According to research, a sale is closed usually on the seventh contact with a prospect.

Only two things can possibly happen with the web page alone: closed sale or the prospect leaving the page and never return again. By placing useful information into their inboxes at certain specified period, you will remind them of the product they thought they want later and will find out that the sale is closed. Be sure that the content is directed toward specific reasons to buy the product. Do not make it sound like a sales pitch.

Focus on important points like how your product can make life and things easier and more enjoyable. Include compelling subject lines in the email. As much as possible, avoid using the word “free” because there are still older spam filters that dumps those kind of contents into the junk before even anyone reading them first. Convince those who signed up for your free reports that they will be missing something big if they do not avail of your products and services.

3. Get The Kind Of Traffic That Is Targeted To Your Product.

Just think, if the person who visited your website has no interest whatsoever in what you are offering, they will be among those who move on and never come back. Write articles for publication in e-zines and e-reports. This way you can locate publications that is focusing on your target customers and what you have put up might just grab their interest.

Try to write a minimum of 2 articles per week, with at least 300-600 words in length. By continuously writing and maintaining these articles you can generate as many as 100 targeted readers to your site in a day.

Always remember that only 1 out of 100 people are likely to buy your product or get your services. If you can generate as much as 1,000 targeted hits for your website in a day, that means you can made 10 sales based on the average statistic.

The tactics given above does not really sound very difficult to do, if you think about it. It just requires a little time and an action plan on your part.

Try to use these tips for several affiliate marketing programs. You can end maintaining a good source of income and surviving in this business that not all marketers can do.

Besides, think of the huge paychecks you will be receiving!

Be The Super Star In Any Niche Market

Being At The Top Of The Game Is Easier Than You Think!

Over the past years, web hosting has grown bigger than it used to be. With more companies getting into this business and finding the many benefits it can give them, the demand for web hosting has never been higher. These seem to be the trend of today.

38 million people have put up their very first websites online this year 2005 alone. It is estimated that by 2008, the Internet sales industry will top the dollar bank. And to think, majority of those sites will be offering different affiliate programs for people to choose and participate into.

This only means one thing. It is easier now to find the right web host for your application. The possibility of quality web hosting companies separating themselves from the rest of the industry is anticipated. If this is done, the unprofessional and incompetent ones will suffer.

Support will be the number one consideration for people when choosing a web host. It will be obvious that traditional advertising will become less and less effective. Most people would rather opt for the web host based on things that they see and hear. Also based on the recommendations by those who have tried them and have proved to be a successful.

This is a great opportunity for web hosting affiliates and resellers alike. There would hundreds of web hosting and programs to choose from that the difficulty in finding the right one for them is not a problem anymore.

How does one become a successful affiliate in the niche markets using web hosting?

If you think about it, everyone who needs a website needs a web hosting company to host it for them. As of now, there is really no leading hosting industry so most people choose hosts based from recommendations. Usually, they get it from the ones that have already availed of a web hosting services.

With the many hosts offering affiliate programs, there is the tendency to find the one which you think will work best for you. Think of the product you will be promoting. Pattern them to the site and see if they are catering to the same things as you are.

When you have been with one host for quite some time and seem not to be making much despite all your effort, leave that one and look for another. There is no use in trying to stick to one when you would be before off in another one. Things will only have to get better from there because you already have been in worst situations.

Try this out. If you are quite happy and satisfied with your web host, try to see if they are offering an affiliate program you can participate on. Instead of you paying them, why not make it the other way around; them paying you. The process can be as easy as putting a small “powered by” or “hosted by” link at the bottom of your page and you are already in an affiliate business.

Why choose paying for your for your web hosting when you do not have to? Try to get paid by letting people know you like your web host.

Always remember that when choosing a web host, choose the one that is known for its fantastic customer support. There are also many hosting affiliate programs. Residual affiliate program is also being hosted. This is the program wherein you get paid a percentage every month for a client that you refer. This can allow you to have a steady source of income. With perseverance, you can even be quite successful in this field.

There are a lot of niche markets out there just waiting for the right affiliate to penetrate to them and make that dollars dream come true. Knowing which one to get into is being confident enough of your potentials and the good results you will be getting.

Web hosting is just one affiliate market you could try out and make some good and continuous income. Just remember that to be successful on your endeavor also means that time, effort and patience is needed.

Nobody has invented the perfect affiliate market yet. But some people do know how to make it big in this kind of market. It is just knowing your kind of market and making the earnings there.

Choose The Best Affiliate Programs!

How To Choose The Best Affiliate Programs Everytime…

Ask questions first before you join an affiliate program. Do a little research about the choices of program that you intend to join into. Get some answers because they will be the deciding point of what you will be achieving later on.

Will it cost you anything to join? Most affiliate programs being offered today are absolutely free of charge. So why settle for those that charge you some dollars before joining.

When do they issue the commission checks? Every program is different. Some issue their checks once a month, every quarter, etc. Select the one that is suited to your payment time choice. Many affiliate programs are setting a minimum earned commission amount that an affiliate must meet or exceed in order for their checks to be issued.

What is the hit per sale ratio? This is the average number of hits to a banner or text link it takes to generate a sale based on all affiliate statistics. This factor is extremely important because this will tell you how much traffic you must generate before you can earn a commission from the sale.

How are referrals from an affiliate’s site tracked and for how long do they remain in the system? You need to be confident on the program enough to track those people you refer from your site. This is the only way that you can credit for a sale. The period of time that those people stay in the system is also important. This is because some visitors do not buy initially but may want to return later to make the purchase. Know if you will still get credit for the sale if it is done some months from a certain day.

What are the kinds of affiliate stats available? Your choice of affiliate program should be capable of offering detailed stats. They should be available online anytime you decide to check them out. Constantly checking your individual stats is important to know how many impressions, hits and sales are already generated from your site. Impressions are the number of times the banner or text link was viewed by a visitor of your site. A hit is the one clicking on the banner or text links.

Does the affiliate program also pay for the hits and impressions besides the commissions on sales? It is important that impressions and hits are also paid, as this will add to the earnings you get from the sales commission. This is especially important if the program you are in offers low sales to be able to hit ratio.

Who is the online retailer? Find out whom you are doing business with to know if it is really a solid company. Know the products they are selling and the average amount they are achieving. The more you know about the retailer offering you the affiliate program, the easiet will be for you to know if that program is really for you and your site.

Is the affiliate a one tier or two tier program? A single tier program pays you only for the business you yourself have generated. A two tier program pays you for the business, plus it also pays you a commission on the on the sales generated by any affiliate you sponsor in your program. Some two-tier programs are even paying small fees on each new affiliate you sponsor. More like a recruitment fee.

Lastly, what is the amount of commission paid? 20% – 80% (and some cases, 100%!) is the commission paid by most programs. .01% – .05% is the amount paid for each hit. If you find a program that also pays for impressions, the amount paid is not much at all. As you can see from the figures, you will now understand why the average sales amount and hit to sale ratio is important.

These are just some of the questions that needed answering first before you enter into an affiliate program. You should be familiar with the many important aspects that your chosen program should have before incorporating them into your website. Try to ask your affiliate program choices these questions. These can help you select the right program for you site from among the many available.

What is the Most Annoying Thing About Internet Marketing?

December 26th, 2009

I can bet you have already answered the question in your mind when you read my article title Right? Well now let me guess what you were thinking.

If you are like most online marketers trying to make ends meat on the internet then you are probably thinking “Getting people to actually BUY something from me and actually seeing the money come in is the hardest thing EVER!” Then of course you get those who are thinking”Getting Traffic to my site is the most annoying part” And you have those who are thinking “How on earth do some people make so much money….what is the SECRET?”

So let me answer all those questions now. Firstly, internet marketing is NOT as easy as they make it seem and sound. However it is definitely NOT impossible either.

Pssst….first let me tell you a secret before we go any further……get closer……you ready? “THERE ARE NO BIG DARK SECRETS THAT ANY GURU COULD HAVE THAT NO OTHER HUMAN HAS EVER THOUGHT ABOUT!”

Phewww….There…with that off my chest and I hope out of your head….we can begin. Making money on the internet is a process. A factual step by step process that any Tom Dick Harry…Mary Jane or Sue could do if you follow the basics of internet marketing.

What are the basics then you may ask and who’s basics should you follow since there are like thousands of people who claim to have some great basic step by step process that will make you tons of money….

Huh! That’s the best question you can ask and get the answers to. NOT “what is the secret?” NOT “why the “so called” gurus can do it and you can’t” NOT “Am I trying to do the impossible?”

What you really need is simply a factual step by step manual with the basics right up to the advanced steps you need to take. By this I mean from setting up your own website to actually either promoting someone else’s product or creating your very own product, to actually pulling in the traffic, to finally making people take action to buy. That’s all there is to it. However, you DO need the exact steps to take to get there. And to be honest, there are not many actual “OVERALL MANUALS” out there that will achieve this.

Yes you do have the many different programs that teach you either this or that. Not many that will take you from the beginning and walk you through every single step of the way till you make your very first “sale” online. You know why? Because that’s a whole lot of information to be giving away at one go and not many people are dedicated enough to do that for you.

Ok so in order to start making money online and continue to do so as you get more advanced, you need a complete program.
