Over the years, I have put myself out there as a friend, coach, mentor, business owner and what does that mean – well it means that I have opened the door for many people to be able to come to me for advice and try to be that person that I had wished I had found when I first started – thus today’s post how to stop being in the 97% who don’t make it.
It’s funny how the saying comes to mind as I’m writing that you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make them drink – well I keep hoping that if you keep leading them to that water often enough – they will finally drink. Do I know all the answers, NO or will everyone agree with me, NO but what you will get is my honest opinion based on things that I encountered in my years online and lessons I learned the hard way.
Often times I get asked if I was starting out now what would I do to get started. Added to that is how can I ever earn money if I don’t have my own site like you do. Well I’m going to try and answer both of those comments for you.
Things keep changing on the net and with so much out there to choose from and new things popping up each day that people can just go pogo jumping around and never accomplish anything but wasting their time.
If I was just starting online now and I didn’t have lot of money in my budget to get me started there are a couple sites that I would join to get me started – and I know you are going to say I don’t have any money to invest in anything. Well I’m going to be right up front with you and say that if you don’t have some money put aside to invest in your business (which working online is) then you are going to stay in the 97% who don’t make it.
Ouch huh? I know I must have shocked a lot of you by saying that BUT I can give you some options at least what I would do if I was just starting out. There are sites out there with minimal investment and I’m going to recommend them here.
Now before I do, I have to say this – if you are not going to treat these sites like YOUR business and promote, track, tweak, promote, track, tweak what you are doing until you are getting referrals then don’t waste your time or money.
You NEED to stay focused on these two sites – you NEED to promote ONLY these two sites in everything that you are doing – TEs, safelists, mailers, social net working and you NEED to track your results so that you can see what is working and what is not.
Now I know you are thinking what 2 sites am I recommending that I can promote like my own business – well they are Quality Pro 4 U and Easy Cash List Building System.
Now you are thinking why would I pick these two sites – one they are both run by honest owners, owners that have been working online for years and have great reputations, they offer affordable investment opportunities. Both sites will not be disappearing like I see a lot of sites do and I know that if YOU are SERIOUS – then these two sites can be the start of your journey to how to stop being in the 97% who don’t make it.
WOW Nancy this is a very big eye opening for me… I am a member of Quality Pro 4 U, but not the other one… after this i will be joining it also… thanks for showing me where i am making my mistakes … Also I want to thank you for all your help you have giving me since I have owned Teacup Puppy Traffic… without your guideness i would have not made it a month much less this whole year now that I have owned it …
Ahhhh thanks my friends and you have done so great with your site and am very proud of you 🙂
Hi, As the owner of Easy Cash List Building System it makes me really happy to be included in your post.
It was always an aim to make the site affordable and to bridge the gap between people using mailers for free and then taking it one step further and investing a little bit. I wanted to keep the price point easy to afford and yet still be enough to generate a good income for people.
It is very sad to see 97% of people fail even after all you do for people and the help and teaching, at the end of the day some are just not cut out to do it but most could if they just went that one little step further than they think they should. Push limits and step forward into the 3% you can do it, you just need to convince yourself that you can.
Thanks Steve and you are so right – but soooooo many want the big easy red button and that is why they just keep pogo jumping from one program to another but that does NOT work – am just trying to lead them back to take a drink this time 🙂
Nancy,
Thank you so much for including QualityPro4U in your list of trusted sites to earn residual income. We strive to provide quality advertising for pro marketers at an affordable price. QP4U is definitely for the serious marketer. Thanks again for including us. We are honored.
Linda O.
YW Linda and I know I believe in your site as it works for me – so thank you
I’m a member of Quality Pro 4 U since first day when launched. I joined because I had confidence in Linda and Parry.
I’m glad that Linda is alive and well … Trust is something that is gained over time, but may be lost very easily.
Marketing online works by having consumers, not by the creators of a product., unlike the the advertising of a product (cosmetics, food and so on)
As buyers/shoppers trust a brand, so sellers/vendors of advertising trust place to offer.
Wish you much success both sites owners !
