I started in internet marketing exactly like most everyone else. I wanted to break away from my business model (for some of you it may be a job), and gain more financial as well as general freedom. It became even more important when kids came along, and I no longer wanted to put in the entrepreneurial hours I was accustomed to.
If you believe in the Law of Attraction or creating your own future, within days an email arrived talking about the million dollar business of internet marketing. I read it, booked a flight to Las Vegas, paid to attend a seminar, and listened for 4 days to an amazing revelation of opportunities. I knew immediately this was for me, and I had to do whatever it takes.
Now remember those words – whatever it takes, because in the beginning, to make something happen, you will need that attitude, determination and mindset. There are no magic wands, but there are magic results.
Over the next few articles I will reveal more and more about how I did it, and how you can do it too. For now I will interject with some practical steps for you to start with.
The first is, just believe that it is possible, and you can do it and get rid of “It ’s just for the other guy, or that lucky person” or the long line up of reasons and excuses as to why you can’t become a millionaire miracle.
Next, get educated on what there is out there, and what interests you. In short, what are you passionate about. Because internet marketing is a very generic term for making money doing many different things on the internet. This happens before you even figure out what niche you would pick, because selecting a niche is more technical and is the second step to discovering your passions.
Get a piece of paper and write it down. Don’t think when you do this. Don’t scribble out as you write, or monitor anything you dream up. This is between you and the piece of paper, and will serve as an investigation tool later. Maybe when you read it later you’ll think “I can’t be a dolphin trainer, or parachute jumper”, but within that list will be some very real items that interest you a lot. You may also discover you have written “make lots of money, travel around the world, buy fancy cars and live in a mansion.” That’s fine – these will come in handy later, when you put together your ‘ideal scene or dream board or treasure map or goals’ or whatever you call it. For now, find the topics you could spend time with, or activities you enjoy doing.
For example – let’s say you love to shop. Maybe after investigation eBay will be a good route for you to take. What if you love German Sheepdogs, maybe you become an affiliate, a blogger, create a membership site, or ebook about this topic. Whatever you pick, just know there is a method and formula within internet marketing to make what you want come true.
The key first step is knowing what you like to do, and what you want to focus on. Eventually we’ll start to call this a niche, but for now, just don’t sensor yourself and really dig back to when you were a kid or teen, before you had to pay bills and perhaps let life take over. Have your list handy because the next article is going to tell you what to do with it, and how to approach internet marketing so you don’t get overwhelmed and confused within your first three weeks.
When you start internet marketing the right way, even as I did with no list, no contacts, and no idea what you are doing, you can get results that will make you a 6-figure earner in your first 5 months. If I can do it, so can you.
