What Internet Marketing course should I start with?

34 replies
Hi - I am new to Internet Marketing and have only read on it for a few months.

Which of these courses do you recommend I should use in order to quickly build a sustainable online income?
  • Russell Brunson's DotComSecretsX
  • Marketing with Alex WSO
  • The Unstoppable Affiliate

If you have any recommendations of your own, then please note them down.

Looking to start on a small outlay but if there is something that I can buy now that will really speed everything up and is exclusive value, then that's fine.

My education is in finance and business. Hobbies include travelling, keeping fit and self-improvement.

Cheers

      I've not personally used either of the three mentioned, but I have heard good things about each one.

      The main thing is picking a method - and sticking with it.

        I don't know anything about the other two but I can personally vouch for Marketing with Alex. I joined MWA a number of months back and I changed from years of wheel-spinning to actually moving forward for the first time ever.

        At the end of the day, do your research on each, try to get some sample of the teaching style of each and pick which one you think that you can relate best to and learn from.

        As NatesMarketing said, once you've picked one stick with it, otherwise you won't get the real benefit.

        All the best with your IM journey :-)

    Go and speak to these people about how they can help you - in no particular order:

    Willie Crawford
    John McCabe
    Rod Cortez


    If you find that those amazing individuals somehow do not solve your problem, try these next two:

    Jesus
    Santa

    Did I really just go there?

    I've heard good things about dotcomsecretsx. When you choose one make sure you stay focused on that one program and don't get involved with other programs.

    You say you want to build an online income quickly. The fastest way to become successful online is to focus on one thing until it's profitable.

    Don't make the mistake of moving from program to program or you'll end spending a lot more money than what is necessary and waste a lot of valuable time that you will never get back.

    I recommend that instead of a course, you begin by going to a
    live seminar or workshop. An event like Marketing Mayhem, coming
    up in a week, will expose you to a lot of really great ideas, and
    just as importantly, energize you!

    A seminar also lets you look at a LOT of different business model
    and perhaps pick one that most resonates with you... and then
    I'd perhaps take that speaker's training.

    I make the above recommendation because starting to attend live
    events is what really accelerated my learning, and started me making
    REAL connections that I later leveraged when I started creating
    my own products.

    Before buying a specific product, I would suggest you to browse around to get an idea of the IM world. There are a lot of ways to generate revenue. Do you have some capital? Your budget is very important as every method has different costs.

      I'd like to thank everyone for their time in giving a response.

      Will definitely look into a Chris Farrell membership.

      My budget is good. Just that I do not want to spend extra money if the information is available elsewhere.

    I too have not personally used any of those -- but if you are a complete newcomer I highly recommend Chris Farrell!

    He teaches you from the ground up how to create a profitable web business, even if you have no technical or computer skills at all.

    There are hundreds if not thousands of internet marketers that have started off with him -- to go and create their own 6 to 7 figure year business.

    Hi,

    Aside from the already suggested methods/tutorials, I would also suggest you look into Affilorama Affiloblueprint 3.0, which is step-by-step video tutorials on affiliate marketing- from website building, graphics creation, content, SEO, PPC and so on.

    And I would have to agree that you need to stick to one method before jumping into another. There are actually a lot of good tutorials on affiliate marketing out there but it won't work if you are not focused and willing.

    Good luck!

    The problem with most of us in Online Marketing is lack of focus and accountability. Though you can buy courses, you need a mentor and a master mind group to ensure that you do well.

    I had same challenges earlier until i found a coach for myself and my life changed. Let me know i can do anything for you

    Have faith in yourself. This is the most important part of Internet Marketing. Weather you want to learn it or want to make money through it. I did not attend any courses yet. Loved this forum a lot and used google search for answers of my questions.

    It does not mean that they are not good coaching programs. They might be good and may be the best but if you learn something of your own before attending an program, it will help you to learn more efficiently.

    it really depends what area you want to move into the IM world is very diverse. I would get a rough plan of what area you want to tackle. You will then have a lot better idea of which guide is going to help you.

    When you first start with IM its far to tempting to jump from one thing to another and end up with a ton of half completed projects and no income. Master and learn one thing and then when your successful with that transfer that knowledge to your next project.

      DotComSecrets X is a very well together put together program and one that you can also promote after you're shown how.

      I have over the years paid for many and although much of what Russell teaches I knew already, he delivers it all in a really easy and understandable way.

      If you want hand holding all the way it's a very good place to start.

      Good luck, whichever you choose.

    My advice is to let this thread play out and then use the recommendations as what not to buy. Many on this forum have a love affair with fake gurus.

    To them it's not about what the fake guru accomplished in his area of teaching, but instead how many courses he has sold. It's like who cares if Guru X made $2 in affiliate marketing? All that matters is that he made big money selling his course on how to do affiliate marketing (or the assumption that he made big money selling courses).

    THAT is the true perspective that the recommendations in this thread are being made from and it's ridiculous.

    Before you buy anything, ask the guru for a detailed professional history. If you are going to spend the money and sink the time into an affiliate marketing course, the guy who wrote it better be a very successful affiliate marketer. They should be open about what sites they have operated in the past so that you can check them out and see if this person is the real deal or if they just kinda showed up one day in "internet marketing" selling courses.

    You shouldn't be focusing on which product is going to build you a sustainable income. The answer is none. Products will help you get ideas for building your own business but they won't take you from broke to rich.

    I would recommend you to start with Marketing with Alex WSO. I have no much ideas about the other two but i can confirm that Marketing with Alex WSO has worked with many people.
    All the best.

    Hmm, I think you should get a better idea of the type of business you want to build and what you want to learn before deciding on a course. From what you listed they all are kind of different, which to me indicates your still deciding on what direction to move in.

    If your goal is to just make some cash, start by identifying what value or skill you already have or you would want to develop that you could then leverage or offer others. Then use internet marketing as a way to get customers and make money.

    Also depending on what you decide you may get TON more value with real books from Amazon.

    If your goal is to make money in affiliate marketing, there is only 1 course I recommend if your serious about building a value based affiliate BUSINESS. (key being value based)

    TLB - http://tinylittlebusinesses.com/

    P.S. Not sure you can join TLB at the moment. Also understand this is not like other courses. It's SOLID & not some lame a$$ gimmick, but its not easy and involves work. It also focuses on paid traffic.

    Much love,
    Daniel.

    Hello Foreignwares,

    I've not personally used either of the three mentioned, but as I was at your position 1 year ago, I have to recommend to you, Big Idea Mastermind, from Vick Strizheus.

    This trainee changed my life in 3 months, so, honestly I have to recommend what worked for me.

    Cheers

    No product in itself will help you make money if you don't have the right mindset

    I was doing IM for over a year and it wasnt untill I joined the Prosperity Team that my
    situation started to change.

    Yes you need marketing training,

    But that's only 20% of the game, 80% of success in this industry is definitely about MINDSET,

    And IMO, you want to get coaching on a daily basis, to keep you in the game and guide you through the jouney, just like any basketball player or football player would.

    If you want a Review of the Prosperity Team, I just recently recorded one for my subscribers, http://joenielsenonline.com/top-recommendation

      I review many product but non of them. What I highly recommend is to check about George Brown Google Sniper 2.0 as this for me was one of the best IM course I ever buy.
      Same method I use even today and for lot's of people this was scam and I don't know why.
      Method is newbie friendly and easy to set up as it have PDF tutorials and video tutorials.
      If I set up review site I'm using Google Sniper method and it working.
      If you want my report about it, case study, just PM me, will give it to you for free.

    Mark Ling's Affilorama.

    Reasons are:

    1. It is free

    2. It contains over 100 step-by-step videos of everything you need to know about internet marketing.

    3. It has a support desk and forum whereby you can get help from staff and fellow members.

    I did post sometime ago about this being the only IM course I will stick to if I am a total newbie with little or no money.

    Hope this will answer your question and eradicate all doubts you may have.

    Cheers

    Hi
    you are in a unique place right now like Alice before she disappeared down the rabbit hole in the Wizard of Oz

    As Daniel mentioned I would if I had my time again really think hard about what your interests are and what you want from the internet as its can be a very confusing place if you have not decided and there are many people who will suck you in and cost you a fortune The truth is there is a steep bt doable learning curve and very few will give you all the pieces of the puzzle I have tried most of the big guns but learned most useful and practical steps and how it all works mostly from Chris Farrell

    after all you need to walk before you can run and don't get sucked in to the hype money never came knocking on anyone's door without a lot of work done at some stage the key is find what makes you tick and go build a list in that area of people who are also interested , just make sure its a profitable one not selling widgets ) hope that helps events are great too as Willie said it fuels the fire and shows what is possible good luck if you get stuck just ask in here lots of experience and people who have been there and worn the t-shirt

    Hi there!

    Welcome to the long (and sometimes frustrating) journey of Making Money Online.
    I have tried Unstoppable Affiliate myself but if you were to ask me to start over - I would start by getting clear on HOW exactly do I want to make money online before investing in a product or flocking to a "guru" (not naming names but some of them just make money off "teaching" rather than "doing")

    The easiest way to start is providing a service.
    Then getting your feet wet with doing some selling on eBay.
    The important thing is getting your first $1! :-)

    The important thing is to keep momentum, start small - but DO SOMETHING.
    I was also stuck in my wheels before. But getting that moment of clarity of what do you want to do online : an affiliate site, a product, building a list, CPA?

    If you have any questions...feel free to ask ;-)
    Always happy to help someone starting out and ensuring they don't make the same mistakes as I did.
