Can anybody please help me?

Anita,

Making money online is a lot easier than you may think, yet in the beginning it can be a little overwhelming if you let it.

I suggest the first thing you think about is, "What are you passionate about?"

It sounds like you're just wanting to make money and in my opinion and experience that isn't a BIG enough reason why.

Ask Donald Trump, Robert Kiyosaki, Tony Robbins, Jim Rohn...etc.

"Money is not a strong enough motivator."

I gues if I can help in any way I would say...Find Your Real Why!

Hi Anita,

Yes, it does take time to make money online. It's not something that you start today and live off of your income within the next 4 weeks.

I don't care WHAT the "gurus" tell you...it's complete BS for the most part.

Anything that has value will rarely come easily or free. Now, having said that, once you have proper training you can make money very quickly and at will. In fact, making money would be a byproduct...something you get by association of working your perfected system.

Or someone else perfected system.

At any rate, I think you're at the stage where you should be learning and not yet selling a product. And I think where you need to start is with your mindset.

You have to change your whole mindset about money and how it's made. You see, the school systems screwed us up. College screwed us up. If you get an A then you pass but let you keep on getting D's, you'll fail.

This has taught us an unrealistic system.

It has taught us that "if I do everything right then I'll have great financial rewards in life." And that's true if you have a job and want to work for someone your entire life. But in the business arena, it's completely different. Offline or online. It's different.

Business doesn't care if you've done everything right. It doesn't care if you never fail. You just need results and schools and colleges don't train people to mentally for this type of environment.

Having said that, you're going through the "tried it, it failed, tried it again, it failed again" stage but along the way you're learning what works and what doesn't work. Eventually, you're going to figure it out and you'll explode and make great amounts of money. No program can teach how to get rich in 30 days...don't believe it.

Keep your money.

Invest in learning. Get some good teachings and learn how the system works. At the same time, retrain your mindset. Your issue right now isn't how to make money. That's actually the easy part.

You want to make money and you want it now and that's where you're having the problems. The hard part is training your mind to relax, be patient, and learn how to do this the best possible way (I almost said the right way but methods change every year so you have to stay up to keep on adjusting).

Anyway, I hope that didn't sound scolding. I don't scold; I attempt to breakdown and I hope I've done that instead of upsetting you.

Best regards to you Anita...

There are many good ideas posted here for Anita, but many I feel are too comlicated for her to absorb right off th bat (aka resell rights, building lists, etc.).

Anita, you may not even know what an auto-responder is, so how can you build a list, right? Well don't even think about any of that stuff right now. My advice for you is similar to some posted, but your main concern right now should be the following:

1. Join Blogger.com and AdSense.com (create accounts for both of these before doing anything)

2. Find a topic that you enjoy (and know A LOT about) - i.e. raising children, dealing with stress, or even your process of learning how to become an online marketer

3. Brainstorm (in Microsoft Word) certain topics and aspects of what you can write about - i.e. Monday write about "x", Tuesday write about "y", Wednesday write about "z", etc. Plan your week by daily topics

4. Stick to your daily articles, and make sure you devote 30 minutes - 1 hour per day on these articles (this should not be too much time for you to spare)

5. Make sure that your AdSense "pub" code is embedded in each and every blog (Blogger makes this extremely easy for you with no HTML knowledge)

6. Create accounts with social bookmarking sites ("Delicious", "Digg", "Reddit", "Stumble Upon"), as these are all free communities to post your blogs

7. Don't get lazy, and don't give up. This is a process that takes time....

If you stick to your guns and write an article a day, then Google will continue to index your blog and reward you in the search engines for your new content. This is why you CANNOT just skip a day. Be dedicated to your blog and its readers. You will see after time that people will read your posts on your blog and also on these free social bookmarking sites. Eventually, you will get traffic to your blog, and it's common sense from there. People come, they read, or they click. When they click, you make money with Google. They send you a check in the mail monthly.

This is the easiest, most basic way to start out online. Don't invest in any more programs. Stay focused and organized on your blog, as it's your pride and joy, and if you treat it like that, you will form a community of visitors that keep coming back to read more. If you identify with your crowd, then you have appealed to your target market. Then word of mouth spreads, etc... I'm going on a tangent now, but follow the steps above to get started with your process of making money online from home.

Here is another idea....

Create a blog with wordpress and use Datafeedr to populate it with products........ make it a review site. You will know if the site is good enough when people start to post real reviews.....

These types of sites can work well.

What about running an online store?

Anita, I've been running one for over 2 years now. At first, you were charged a monthly fee.

But now, you don't have to pay any money, except for each time you sell a product ( I'm talking digital products here of course ) an automatic percentage is deducted. That's it.

So, let's say you can sign up with some free JV Giveaways and collect a few products that can be resold for profit. Or, you sign up for a membership site that is free and allows you to download products coming with resell rights.

Now you have some products to add to your online store that didn't cost you anything.

All that's left to do is add them into your provided store front.

Then, you can simply sit back and wait for your products to be purchased.

I know some folks are going to say, "Well, what about getting traffic to the store, HUH???"

That's a good point.

With this particular digital marketplace, THEY get the traffic to their own main site, which funnels into your online store, and you don't HAVE to do any traffic generation. Unless of course you want to. Then by all means, go for it.

But, as you stated, you don't really have any extra money for a start up nor do you have a whole lot of time to spare.

I think this would be the best solution for you to begin making some money online the easiest and cheapest way possible.

I'll be more than happy to give you the details where you can set up your free online store account. Just PM me and I'll give you all the details 100% free.

You HAVE to pick one thing and exhaust it. For instance, if you launch a new product through social networking, you should be spending 8-10 hours a week just on social networking. The web changes too often for you not to dedicate a significant amount of time to your efforts. You should also pick products that are in a niche you belive in and like...this makes so much easier to promote sales. I'm going to suggest www.trafficmasters.tv to you. That's how I got started and have been very successful.

Hi Anita,

You have already been given some excellent advice in this thread so far. I don't thank I can add anything to that.

But let me give you one good reason to take my advice. Just see the image below.


This is today's Clickbank screen shot, now there are a lot of members here who make this look like pocket change but I'm happy with it.

The biggest reason that most people don't make any money online is because there are just way to many ways to make money. This makes people jump around looking for the next best thing.

It's so many gold nuggets on the ground people just run from nugget picking up the small flakes and never hit the gold vein.

The only way to hit the gold vein is to get really good a one thing and just do it.

I know people who do six figures a year by only being good a one thing.

You just need to be good enough in the other area and really good a one.

Just pick one thing a just do it.

Thanks
Charles Kirkland
