  • Hey Guys,

    In the beginning there was the marketer. There are certain truths you come to understand the more time you spend making money online – or trying to.

    Witness the evolution of marketing online. Whether you are new to the net game or an experienced pro, there is one thing you will have in common if you are moving towards entrepreneurial success.

    As you read this article you will realize what you have in common with all the other million dollar earners online, and what you’re missing that can take you from where you are to where you want to be.

    So let’s get started shall we?

    I will begin with a bullet point list and short explanation of the marketing necessities you want to have:

    For starters, most established markets will already be using this by default:

    - A Domain: something specific to what you want to promote like (ex.www.mysite.com)

    - Hosting: a place to put your site, if you’re planning on making money – find a paid solution so you look like a credible business and you cut back on high traffic crashes.

    - A website: your image your presence and your marketing message, don’t get pulled into the trap I see everywhere of trying to put too many choices on your website. Maximize on the effectiveness by only giving one purpose to a page. For example if you want to build a list - focus all your efforts and copy on that singular focus, if you want your site to sell a product, then only put that focus on your site. You’ll also need a good editing program, and an ftp software to get this up and moving.

    - A merchant account: If you have something to sell, people will need a way to pay you. There are a ton of great providers out there, but there are a specific few that give your visitors the security to pull out a credit card with assurance.

    - An Autoresponder: This is a real necessity if you want a business and not just a hobby. When you have a family to support this is a real no brainer. This is your email follow up service. You get a name added to your list and this is where they go. You will use this to stay in touch and build relationships with your customers and soon-to-be customers.

    - A helpdesk: in the beginning when your business and sales are small you can handle all the little questions and emails yourself. One of the things that will keep a small business is small is thinking “I can do that myself” if you want to truly grow; you need to share the workload (petty tasks) and focus on what you truly want to do creatively for your business.

    - Membership Site software: once you’re addicted to the internet marketing lifestyle, you will realize this oh-so-simple fact, it’s great to make a sale, but it’s even better to make a sale once and get paid for it every month. Continuity is king.

    - Teleconferencing software: If you want an easy way to create and crank out high ticket products, audios and a transcript is an easy to make, high-value product.

    Of course everything we’ve touched on so far only scratches the surface, but these are the necessities that not only get you started but will make you above average. Keep your eyes peeled for more articles that will take you from beginner to winner.

    We’ll cover resources that will help you stay organized and expand your business to make you truly prosperous such as:

    -PDF creators and converters
    - Mind mapping software
    - Site tools to make your business a set and forget it – money magnet
    - Internet video and audio creating software
    - And the how-to’s of outsourcing

    Keep learning, and most important: be persistent – it will be a quality you share with the biggest money makers online today…

  • Three Critical Success Traits Shared By "Mom & Pop" Type Web Sites That Are Earning $100,000 to $600,000 Every Year

    Recently, I became a member of this new private web site, SecretsToTheirSuccess.com, that shares the Internet marketing secrets of real people, just like you and me, who are earning $100,000+ per year with their own Internet businesses.

    Just to give you some background, I'll tell you that every month, this site shares two new real-life stories of successful "Mom & Pop" type sites, providing in-depth interviews with the site owners and asking really tough questions about the exact steps, strategies, tools, and software that these people have used to build and grow their sites to their current success.

    For example, two success stories that I just finished checking out are:


    Real-Life Case Study #1 — Robert Clark

    See exactly how Robert Clark turned his $275 a week paycheck into a highly profitable online business that takes him only 2 hours each day to run... while earning him over $250,000 a year in profits!




    Real-Life Case Study #2 — Ken Calhoun

    Ken grossed over $98,000 in sales with his Internet business in 2000 (his first full year online) and then tripled his sales to earn over $300,000 last year — almost all of it profit, all from his beachfront condo in Hawaii.


    ... as well as many other "real people" just like you and me who are creating a fortune on the Internet!

    If you'd like to check out these success stories for yourself right now, and personally discover these "No BS" examples of real people making real money on the Internet, then click here now to get the exact step-by-step details of how they're doing it!

    Obviously, reading these interviews is a really powerful way to guarantee the success of your own web site, because you're getting a personal insider's tour of real sites, run by real people, that are making real money!
    Anyway, as I was reading through the latest success stories, I couldn't help but notice that, despite dramatic differences in the business models they use and the products and services they sell, these successful web site owners all share three common "success traits" that played a major role in growing their online sales to $100,000 to $600,000 a year...

    Success Trait #1:

    First of all, one of the reason's why they're sooooo successful NOW is because they didn't let their lack of knowledge stop them. Despite the fact that many of them had no computer experience, never mind experience using the Internet -- and despite the fact that many had never owned a business before -- they just plain got started and didn't worry about making everything "perfect" the first time.

    Remember, I'm not talking about rocket-scientists here. These are regular people, like you and me, who started running their web sites out of their own homes and are now making $100,000 to $600,000 a year with their sites.

    And believe it or not, almost all of them were making a profit from day-one! Sure, they weren't all making buckets of cash right away; but their profits increased quickly as they continued to improve on what they started with.

    Success Trait #2:

    I've already mentioned that these successful web site owners didn't worry about making everything "perfect" right away. And this is important, because rather than overload themselves by trying to become Internet marketing gurus BEFORE they got started, they just dove in and focused on one marketing strategy at a time, working extremely hard to maximize their profits with one strategy before moving onto the next.

    This is a trait that really amazed me because even though these successful web site owners are earning substantial incomes from their web sites, they ALL talk about how they plan to snowball their profits and sales even more by strategically adding another strategy... and another strategy... and another strategy... to their web sites, one at a time.

    Success Trait #3:

    Interestingly, the one point that kept coming up again and again, sometimes two or three times in a single interview, was that all of these successful site owners confess they could have been earning a MUCH bigger income MUCH faster had they only avoided the costly mistakes started educating themselves sooner.

    And that's probably the most critical trait these success stories share -- they've all committed to educating themselves about the most profitable marketing strategies and techniques.

    In fact, I could literally go on for pages and pages reeling off the hundreds of invaluable marketing strategies, techniques, tools, and software recommendations that these people share in their interviews, based on their own real-life experiences and commitment to educating themselves.

    However, I know it will mean much more when you hear, straight from the horse's mouth, these...

    "No BS" Examples Of Real People Making
    Real Money on the Internet...

    If you want to automatically skip the failing promotions, and start learning the tested, proven strategies that real businesses have already proven to be enormously successful, then I'd highly recommend that you visit http://www.SecretsToTheirSuccess.com to take a private tour of "Mom & Pop" web sites that earn $100,000 to $600,000 a year and discover the exact step-by-step strategies they have personally used to generate these massive profits!

    You will instantly be exposed to extremely successful netrepreneurs like...


    Real-Life Case Study #3 — Andy Bryant

    Andy's site is generating an impressive $50,000 in sales per month... and even Andy's a bit surprised to discover that his $600,000 a year online income is the result of his own self-proclaimed vain quest to reverse his own hairloss!



    Real-Life Case Study #4— Ellen Cagnassola

    Ellen is a work-at-home mom who produces homemade, personalized glycerin soaps. Discover the strategies she used to expand her offline business onto the Web, and how she gets big companies (like Johnson and Johnson) to distribute and sell her soaps for her... earning a hefty online income at the same time!



    Real-Life Case Study #5 — Kelly Monaghan

    Kelly Monaghan has quite literally built a $200,000+ Web business around his lifestyle. While he's bumping across Tibet in a jeep or white water rafting in Nepal, his four successful sites continue to bank his sales and profits....


    ... plus many, many more!

    When I first came across http://www.SecretsToTheirSuccess.com I was shocked to find REAL successful people just like you and me who were willing to give away their most coveted Internet marketing secrets.
    So if you want to skip the failing promotions, I highly recommend that you click here now and learn the "No BS Strategies" these real people are using to make real money on the Internet!

  • Make the Leap to Affiliate Marketing Success
    Copyright © Stone Evans, The Home Biz Guy
    http://www.PlugInProfitSite.com/main-16926

    If you are going to become a successful affiliate on the
    Internet, you need 3 "intangibles." These are things that
    must come from WITHIN you.

    ===> Intangible 1 <===

    First, you must have a strong WHY.

    Why must you make affiliate marketing work? What is driving
    you? What is it that you CAN'T have in your life anymore
    and/or what is it that you absolutely MUST HAVE now?

    For me, I couldn't stand working 12+ hours a day anymore
    and missing the experience of my children growing up. I also
    absolutely HAD TO HAVE the freedom of being able to control
    my life and finances through a little box that I could carry
    with me anywhere in the world and not be tied to anyone's
    time pressures or demands but my own. That was my carrot and
    my stick. I felt a great pain deep in my gut of missing out
    on my children's lives and the incredible freedom that
    succeeding in this business would provide for me. I found my
    why. You MUST find yours.

    ===> Intangible 2 <===

    You must BELIEVE that it is possible.

    If you don't believe that it's POSSIBLE for you to make
    money with affiliate programs or make your living on the
    Internet, you won't. It's that simple.

    For me, figuring out that it was possible was just a matter
    of realizing that many other people were ALREADY making
    great money online. If they could do it, I could too. It
    would just be a matter of figuring out what those people
    were doing and then adapting it to my situation.

    There is no shortage of undeniable PROOF that people
    (millions of them) are making money online with affiliate
    programs. Just get online and do some research and you'll
    find countless testimonials and stories of REAL PEOPLE
    making real money on the Internet. Or head to your local
    bookstore and you'll find the same documented evidence of
    this fact. Truth is, it's getting easier and easier to make
    money online with affiliate programs.

    I've always said that "affiliate marketing" is the job of
    the future. In the "old" days, you had to go to a
    potential employer, apply for the position and hope for the
    best. Now you can simply go to any company you want, fill
    out their affiliate application and start work immediately.
    Affiliates are the new working class. Believe me, making
    money with affiliate programs or making your living on the
    Internet is WAY MORE than possible. It is pretty much (or
    will be soon enough) unavoidable now. Affiliate marketing is
    the "job" of the future that's already here TODAY.

    ===> Intangible 3 <===

    You must be willing to MAKE THE LEAP.

    Ready, FIRE, then aim... This is the operating philosophy
    you MUST adopt to succeed with affiliate marketing.

    That's backwards for most people who like to aim before
    they fire. The fact is the Internet is a moving target...
    The only thing constant about it is change. You need to stop
    analyzing the game and simply jump into it. You can't learn
    from the outside... You have to be IN THE RING to truly
    understand it.

    The lesson here is that you will never really be READY to
    start an affiliate marketing business. You simply have to
    start one. This is what I call "Making the Leap."

    The good news is that the cost of failure on the Internet is
    very small. In the "brick and mortar" world you need to
    evaluate things very carefully before you decide to open up
    a business. It's almost always necessary to invest
    thousands of dollars to get an offline business off the
    ground. However, on the Internet you can often start a
    successful business for less than $100. The Plug-In Profit
    Site is a great example of this as you can see here:
    http://www.PlugInProfitSite.com/main-16926

    You simply need get IN THE GAME... Each moment that you stay
    "out there," you're wasting valuable time that you could
    be learning and skills necessary to become a successful
    affiliate marketer. In fact, if you're not in the game yet,
    you're ALREADY behind the times. Make the leap to becoming
    a successful affiliate marketer today!

    the world make money online with affiliate programs. If you
    can follow 3 easy steps, you can get your own custom
    website, autoresponder (email follow-up software) and
