How to Make sure that my business does not fail

Posted 05-22-2010 at 03:25 PM by la dominatrix

How to Make sure that your business fails.

#1 MINDSET
you absolutely MUST have the right mindset to achieve success. If you don't believe - I mean TRULY BELIEVE that you WILL be successful - you have already failed!!
This is sad but true. You need to listen to every motivational speaker that you have time for. Follow the people that are already a success - understand how they think. You will start to see a pattern in the mindset of successful people in any business.
I mean can anyone truly believe that Donald Trump though he would fail.

Over half of the battle is believing you can do it. Putting your fears aside and overcoming the desperation that we all feel at some point. Fear and doubt WILL paralyze you. Do NOT be afraid to fail. You WILL get it wrong sometimes. Hell - probably most of the time. However it is important that you take action as Napoleon Hill observed the super rich he talked to and interviewed had their greatest success after their most spectacular failure.
What you initially perceive to be failure is actually a learning experience that puts you one step closer to success. There is no such thing as can’t in making my first buck online I have had to overcome obstacles. At some point you have to decide that you are going to make a project work whatever it is that is broken.



#2 FIND A HUNGRY MARKET - NOT A HOT PRODUCT

The people that find immediate success - understand this. You MUST know your audience and KNOW what they are hungry for. It is not enough to know that a lot of people want diet solutions you have to drill down into the solutions that people want examples are

You need to be the person selling water in the desert to people who have not had a drink in days. This is KEY.
Once people have a real need you do not have to display a lot of knowledge or put a huge amount of success into selling something. Yesterday i made $46 from a Clickbank sale, my first ever click bank sale. I had success with Amazon but could not crack Clickbank. My mindset changed looking for a product yesterday I looked out of the box and realised that I had found a diamond of a product that hardly anyone is promoting and there is going to be a huge market for one of the products coming up.



#3 PICK YOUR PRODUCT
If you have found a hungry market - go find what will solve their problem. If you can't find a good product that will help them - You have hit GOLD. You can create what will help them.

There is so much emphasis put on gravity for Clickbank products my one and only sale had a gravity of 0.00. This makes it very confusing for someone new. You need to stop listening to everyone else. You have already researched what you audience wants - if you know there is a product that will solve their problem - then by all means - promote it. That is what I realised that this product could have a very important usage for some people

Please do not prick my bubble by telling me I have to have five sales before they pay me that does not matter, rinse and repeat.

You may have to find a different angle if it is a competitive market - that is okay. There are thousands of untouched keywords in every niche. Use your head and go for it!!!! What do you have to lose????? Nothing....... You will only gain experience and be one step closer to SUCCESS!! If you don't make any sales - you have found something that doesn't work in that niche - so move onto something else - until you find what DOES work in that niche.

#4 KEYWORD RESEARCHES
This is a hard one. There are many differing opinions about where you need to be. You need longtail keywords that have high search volume and low competition. This is easier said than done.

Please do not think that you are going to find ten 'great' keywords, put up a lens (or whatever form of landing page you use) - write ten articles and become a success within a month. It does NOT work this way. There may be a few out there that have hit everything just right and can make it happen. However, generally it takes several longtail keywords. Some you will rank for - some you won't.

The keyword research tools are just a 'guesstimation' . You can't rely on Google or anything else to be 100% accurate.

You need to understand the concept of keyword research - but you can't dwell on it and let it hold you back. There are ways to break into highly competitive keyword terms. The key is to take action and find what works for you.

After trying out so many different opinions - I truly believe that each individual operates differently at different levels of competition. Find YOUR comfort zone. Try different things - see what works and what doesn't work for you. Track your results - refine and repeat what works FOR YOU.

#5 - TAKE ACTION _ MASSIVE ACTION
We have been told to pick one niche, have one website, one product and promote the hell out of it. Then, we have been told - don't limit yourself - get all you can out there and keep moving.







Which ever way you choose - you will have to take MASSIVE ACTION to see success. One Squidoo lens with 10 articles is not going to change your income substantially. One website with ten articles is not going to change your lifestyle.

Whatever method you choose to follow - STICK WITH IT and TAKE MASSIVE ACTION!!! I would be so much further if someone would have told me this in the beginning.

We become accustomed to hearing about overnight riches and people making thousands a month in a short amount of time. IT IS NOT TRUE!!! Anyone who has succeeded in internet marketing has taken MASSIVE ACTION and FOCUSED on what they were doing. A passive income may be possible somewhere down the line but only after a lot of blood sweat and tears. I was lucky I had my money with real business products and I knew the focus that was necessary.

#6 KEEP MOVING
Keep moving forward. Keep learning, analyzing and tweaking. Don't expect your first campaign to make you rich. Don't expect your first twenty campaigns to make you rich. You need several things to come into play to be successful. Everything you do - will NOT make you money. Don't expect that because you will become disappointed.

You MUST have a hungry crowd - the right product - the right keywords - connect with your audience.........the list goes on and on. You WILL figure it out if you keep moving forward. Then there is building the list itself I have the proud number of seventeen subscribers now after five weeks.

Do NOT let anything stand in your way. A failure is a frame of mind - you can either take it as a step closer to success or you can take it as "I did it wrong and I can't do this". If you choose the later - you might as well have given up before you even gave yourself a chance.

#7 MINDSET
You are not going to make sales with every campaign you put out. It takes one Clickbank sale to realise that it can be done.

What you are going to do is LEARN from it - You are going to come across your perfect niche with the perfect keywords. You are going to work hard at that ONE thing for weeks and nothing will come of it.
However again something does come out of it a learning curve a slow realisation about what works for you not Frank Kern or Ewen Chia, but you.
All of us that have made money have had setbacks they may not admit it but they have had them.



They got back up on their feet and rinsed and dusted off and started again until they found a formula that worked for them.

#8 The Scary Truth

The scary truth is that I am a long way from making a fulltime living from the Internet as an Internet marketer I will still have to make money as a writer, but that is ok for now I want to get enough money to have a VA a full time VA so that I can sort out my issues with my websites and make them work.


I don't want to discourage anyone - I just want to be honest.

This is what keeps me going in internet marketing: I am getting older and need financial security and Internet marketing is the only way for me to get it .


I have written this today to styand as a reminder as to what I wnat to achieve, a public declaration makes me accountable
