I have seen other coaching websites charging up to one hundred dollars a month with far less training, far fewer products and overall value for their members.
Now, I’m not talking something that will give you $300 a month! I’m talking something that can easily bring you in excess of $8000 a month! Seriously! This isn’t a joke or just another of those aimless promises.
But where’s the Website Marketing training? Everything I know today about driving, measuring and converting traffic, I learned by searching the Internet. You can too if you take a year off from your day job and immerse yourself in this new science. While internet marketing is not rocket science, it does require dedication, commitment and decision-making skills. It helps if you can write clearly and concisely, too.
Secondly has to do with loving what you do. It’s as easy as that. If you love what you are promoting or selling and you love the time you spend doing it, then you will have a greater chance of success with your business. If you hate doing it, and dread the time you need to input, you will be heading for failure before you get the chance to begin earning. Surprisingly it has been documented that over 95% of people who start a home business online fail due to them pursuing something they were not that interested in from the beginning.
The third and final step is to provide support and guidance for your team on a consistent basis. Praise members of your team when they start to have success and be available to answer questions, give them guidance, and motivate them. The main reason this is so important is because when you help your team it is like putting money in your pocket. How you ask? The residual income you can make based on your team’s effort is how you succeed as well. With this step it will be really important to avoid “disconnect” with your team. If they feel that their sponsor is not on board, your team members can get frustrated and discouraged. Always make sure you praise your team when they have any success at all.
A fast glance at the numbers of videos shared on the Internet these days will give you a clear picture worth 1,000 words. But take some time to also notice the amount of times these videos are viewed and shared and tweeted and re-tweeted and you’ll start getting excited. There is big potential for you to take advantage of video marketing and the best time to get started is now.
This is a very good question. But the truth of the matter is, as affiliates that are trying to make money online you must understand that you have to always have to remain focus on what you are trying to accomplish. Give you an example to illustrate the point…
If you don’t know how to get started, I really suggest you use any search engine and put in article marketing. You should get a lot of information that would get you started. This is something that I always tell others. Just start. If you never start, nothing will ever happen.
Another way to advertise without spending money is to get to know your local business community. Every community has business groups and you can join the networking events at these groups, often for free. Take along some business cards and hand your card out to everyone you meet. Don’t forget to put your web address on your business card.
Later you can create an affiliate program. This is a program where you offer people a percentage of the profit to sell your product. This is an extremely effective way of marketing as your affiliates do the bulk of the work for you leaving you more time to run your business. What you must be sure of is that they all behave ethically as it is your reputation that is on the line. Be sure you have a set of rules and a binding agreement in place so that your own standards are upheld.
