Hi, I was a person that was trying to make money online for about 6 years and I ended up spending more money than making it. I know how familiar this sounds. After awhile I started to think that making money online just wasn't possible.I apologize for sounding like an ad, but this is all to true. The problem (at least in my case) was that I had the lack of knowledge for one and the price of the merchandise. Every MLM company out there has a “SUPER” product that they want you to believe that you need and charge some ridiculous price for them. The price to start their business can also be a bit alarming, but I never let that stop me because I knew that I needed to make this work because I hated having a boss.So as I said previously, I needed the knowledge to know how to work my business. The next question that you may ask is….
Where Do I Learn The Necessary Skills?
There are so many places to learn how to market your product, service, or whatever online. There are a lot of people out there that are willing to help you for free! That's right, free! I have bought so many e-books, audio tapes/cds and dvds and I have learned enormously from them, but there are a lot of places on the internet that will give you an equal amount of value.
1) Blogs - If you are a person who likes to surf the net, then this is a great option for you. There are lots of people that are seeking answers to questions that you may have. The best part about that is that you don’t have to ask and wait for someone to answer it. Blogs
2) Forums - The forums, to me, are the best sources of information because there are literally hundreds of post, questions, and answers. This is where I learned a lot of what I know about marketing online. You get to read questions and answers from "newbie’s" and gurus alike. If the answer or information that you're looking for isn't there, then you can simply post a question and most of the time the community is friendly enough to answer it. I doubt you will have to post any questions though because of the abundance of information already there.
3) A Guru or Mentor - I personally believe that this is one of (if not) the most crucial step that you can take. The guru or mentor is sort of like a professor or trainer. This is a person that's been through the ring of fire and back and just like most professions out there, you need an education before you can work in your trade. Think about it... you can put out a fire, but are you a fire man? You can stop a criminal, but are you a cop? No. You need to go to police or fire academy first. So finding some to show you the ropes is always a good way to start, but beware of all the people who claim to be a guru or mentor just to sale you an eBook.
4) EBooks and other self development material – eBooks, cds, dvds, video, etc….. can be very valuable tools. There is a lot of self development material that I have read that is just rehashed from other courses or whatever out there, but even so I always learned something new from each one. EBooks can be a great time saver because you can learn a lot without having to take the time to search through the never ending internet, but I wouldn’t suggest going out and buying everything you come across. If you consider buying an eBook or whatever, see what other people on forums or blogs have to say about it first before you spend $19.95 or whatever on one.I Am Not a Guru, But I Can Help You.
I admit, no matter how many e-books, blogs, cds or dvds that I have read, listened to, or watched... I am not a guru, but I am a leader. I will go the extra distance to get the answers I seek no matter how long it takes me and that's the mindset that you have to have to make it in online business. The key to making money online is simple…..help people get what they want and you will get everything you want in return. That’s the big secret that everyone’s looking for. Shocking isn’t it.
Well How Did You Make Money From Home?
I spent a lot of time and money trying to make money from home and it seemed like it would never happen, but I actually found a cost effective system that enabled me to do so. Now I'm not going to go on promoting it, but I suggest to anyone trying to make money online to try and find something that's affordable and reputable. Like I said, I'm not yet a guru making millions, but I am making money working from home on a weekly basis and every week my income from online is increasing.
