If you’re like me, you’re probably living and breathing Internet marketing and you’ve tried many things to “make it finally work” for you.
I know exactly where you are because I have been there, too! There are just so many options that you don’t know where to start.
———————————————————————————
ARE YOU SUFFERING FROM INFORMATION OVERLOAD?
———————————————————————————
Making that step, finding your personal start is not easy. Not just in each individual “niche” in Internet marketing like selling digital products, creating niche websites and do affiliate marketing or building Adsense sites.
You feel paralyzed and frustrated because every week some guy or girl, maybe a lot younger than you, is telling you, how many thousands of dollars he or she made. And yet, you still have to find your own way to hold that first commission check in your hands. A feeling which would confirm that you’ve finally accomplished something and that you are not just daydreaming about making a living online.
What is the factor that makes Internet marketing work for “the gurus” and even some of the newbies but not for you even though you’ve read all the books and “been there, done that”? Is it really just knowledge?
Believe me, I have been asking myself this question time and time again. Yes, I am already “quite successful” as some people would call it as I am already fulltime for more than 3,5 years.
It took me a very long time to get into the category of marketers who are making their living online. Back then, it felt like an eternity…!

TAKING THE HARD WAY TO SUCCESS
——————————————————————–
It was not always easy to get there…
- I’ve also had my months in which I could barely pay my rent.
- I’ve also had years where I couldn’t afford it to go on vacation.
- I’ve also bought dozens or maybe even hundreds of ebooks which promised me an “instant way to Internet marketing riches”.
- I’ve also accumulated a lot of debt on my credit card account because I bought every ebook and software that seemed to be quick solution.
- I’ve also been burned by MLM schemes and scammers.
But I have found my way and I have a solution for you, too…
——————————————————————–
WHAT IS THE WAY OUT OF THIS DILEMMA?
——————————————————————–
Let me tell you the truth, you deserve it.
===> THERE ARE NO MAGICAL SOLUTIONS WHERE YOU JUST HAVE TO PUSH A BUTTON AND GET RICH “OVERNIGHT”! < ===
Like in any other business, you actually have to WORK to make it happen – even though you probably don’t want to hear that. If you don’t want to work then an Internet business isn’t for you.
And you may have heard it many times from others already but I am going to repeat it: Just reading all the stuff won’t make you a penny.
You have to take ACTION, no matter which area of Internet marketing you are in right now.
Try new things. Go new ways. Make your mistakes.
The more mistakes you make, the quicker you can achieve your goals.
————————————————
You need to have a VISION:
————————————————
– Where do you want to see yourself in 5 years from now?
Start with the end goal in mind and work your way backwards.
Which steps are needed to get there? Complete these steps one by one. If you know what it is that you really want, it will become much easier to get there!
e.g.:
Do you want to sell digital products?
Do you want to sell physical products?
Do you want to create a membership site?
Do you want to build websites for Adsense income?
– Which of these do you REALLY want for yourself?
Yes, you can make tens of thousands of dollars by sending out one email. But not before you have invested your time, your resources and your sweat to let this happen. The big guys did not get to that point in a week or two, either.
Even though they sometimes make you believe it…
———————————————————-
They took their time to BUILD THEIR BUSINESS
———————————————————-
What is needed to make a fortune “overnight”? You know, the one where you can send out the email and make yada, yada, yada.
Let me summarize for you what “overnight” in reality means:
- You need to come up with a great idea for a product and you need to know if there’s a demand for it.
- You need to create the product (either your own or one that you have private label rights to and which isn’t being sold by hundreds of others already) – starting with an affiliate product is not recommended at this stage.
- You need to build a big list of people who are interested in what you have to offer.
- You need to win their trust by giving them great content or a great resource like a membership site or a piece of software that makes their life easier.
- You need to build a website which sells the product.
Building a website includes:
- Having a web editor and being able to use it (e.g. FrontPage or DreamWeaver)
- Writing a salesletter
- Getting testimonials
- Getting professional graphics done
- Implementing a payment processor like Paypal, Clickbank or a shopping cart solution
- Installing an affiliate tracking system
- Installing a helpdesk software
Making the sale to your list includes:
– Knowing how to use autoresponders
– Knowing how to use tracking software
– Knowing how to write profit pulling emails
– Knowing what subject line to use
– Knowing what time to send it
After you have done all of the the above, you will probably be able to make a lot of sales to your list – depending on the list size and responsiveness of your subscribers. Then your “overnight” day has finally come. It can take anywhere from 3 months to 1 year or more to get to that point.
Once that step is completed and you have done some followup emails to your list as well, you need to contact potential JV partners to multiply your efforts. You can only make so many sales to your own list. Because, it will soon be saturated and you need more prospects…
You have to realize that an online business means work as well. Not pushing some buttons or joining the latest pie in the sky MLM scheme with “automatic spillover”.
I told you in one of my latest emails that I would reveal some very powerful strategies which I learned from Stephen Pierce and Mike Filsaime at the Internet Millionaires Bootcamp in London. Unfortunately, there weren’t too many comments in my blog that anyone had an interest in it. So I won’t write it down myself…
But I am going to do the next best thing. I’ve just finished reading an incredible ebook which details exactly why most newbies or even intermediate Internet marketers fail to make any substantial money. The author, Dennis Becker, is not quite a newbie but he failed to make a good income for a long time.
In fact, the author was at a point where he was completely burned out and he had tried so many strategies but still got nowhere. Until he discovered WHY he was failing at everything he did.
It’s only a few months ago that Dennis stumbled upon something very powerful. He had an A-HA moment which turned everything around for him. He used almost the same strategies and principles Mike Filsaime and Stephen Pierce taught at the Internet Millionaires Bootcamp. And he reveals the 2 controlling influences for success not just in Internet marketing but in life as well.
His strategies are so simple and yet so powerful, they made Dennis over $38,000 in 2 months. And let me tell you that by applying his strategies, you WILL definitely make money, too (probably not that much because as Dennis pointed out in his ebook, it was almost by “accident”…).
This ebook is affordable to anyone (it’s not even near the usual $97) and if you’re not getting a copy, you are really missing out – at least that’s what I would feel. It is not so much about the WHAT you are selling or doing but about HOW you are doing it and why you are not making a big progress.

I told you, I would do the next best thing. If within the next 48 hours, you secure yourself a copy from the link above, I’ll send you the download link for the Powerpoint presentation which Mike Filsaime did at the seminar in London.
This presentation has all the secrets included which I learned there! These are very powerful principles about HOW to build your online business the right way. Knowing them will make you a better marketer and can mean the difference between making $1000 a month and $25000 or more a month…
