The Secret Behind Make Money Online

i think part of the reason is that it lies in the area of what people don't know that they don't know.

if you don't know that you don't know something you will not recognize a "secret" even if its right in front of you.

the key is to learn the whole of marketing first, what is it, how does it work, then apply it to the internet.

This is the secret to making money -

I think there is no secret or shortcut to earn money. Its all about hard working and providing quality services to the customer.
I 100% agee that people can learn a lot of things related to make money online. But only few become success.
It is because 5% of the people who learn MMO, only implement the ideas. Majority of people only read but they don't implement. Other problem may be distraction, initial failure, information overload, etc.

My good friend Ryan Diess does that.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink.

"We're un-worthy, we're un-worthy!"

The str8 up truth, its just like giving someone the tools to make money, but they just don't use them.

The reason lies in the fact that many consider themselves "experts" but they aren't.

A solid education in marketing, with an authentic mentor, is lacking in most cases.

That's why most of the newbies who dream of making it big online fail.

For beginners, stick with one program only and never jump from one to another product or another business opportunity. Don't drool over flashy website with fake income statement, rags to riches story, photos of luxury home and big cars.

If you found the site like I mentioned above, keep your credit card away and learn exactly what trigger you (or others) to click the buy button. If you get promo email about latest money making secret (and you click on the link inside), the real money-maker is not the product itself, but the how they craft the 'winning' email that people can't resist to click.

Believe in what you are doing, even if you didn't see the result yet. People say, seeing is believing, but you have to believe before you see. This is because, all great ideas starts in mind, where people can't see with their own eyes.

'Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve. - Napoleon Hill'

The secret is persistence in build a list. You need a list for maintaining your own business in long term.

It is no good getting an arbitrary plan or blueprint and just implementing it. If you don’t understand the concepts and principles behind that plan, and why it's ‘good’. People are not robots they cannot blindly just follow a plan or blueprint just because someone said it works, if they don’t know why. To have belief you have to have thought the idea through yourself.

There many reason why people fail to implement. They have fear and emotions , self doubt. they don't have the ruthlessness or experience to kill a plan fast if it is not working. They are not used to making fast executive decisions every day. Which is what you have to do , if you are running an Internet business. The person recommending the plan or blueprint,may have used that it, in a less competitive environment when the tactic was new, they may have applied things subtly differently. They may have vast business knowledge , as well as tactical knowledge about internet marketing. They may have the confidence to face and accept failure - 80% of what you implement will fail, but it is still worth doing because 20% will succeed. It worked for them It may not worked for you.

It is not as as simple as: "This plan works for me, if you implement it will work for you". It is not that someone is too lazy to implement, it’s far more complicated. If it was that easy everybody would do it. But the good news is, if you continue learning about business and internet marketing . you can succeed, probably not immediately.

There are no shortcuts or spoon-fed winners in the world period --->. Winners win by giving value and working for it. What person would want the house their family lives in, to be built by taking shortcuts?

If there was a secret, then the secret is a 2 part lock.

1st. A person must understand their numbers and how their opt in pages, front end product and back end products convert. These numbers are critical... Vital to your success. Nothing happens without those numbers aligning, because if they don't align properly then, you don't know what you can spend on advertising to acquire a customer and you don't know your average customer value.

2. Most people treat this like it's a game, listen... If you come into this industry with $50 and expect to make 10k/month then you're fooling yourself. Spend money on testing your funnel and THEN look at what needs to be spent. This is a business and it's actually VERY easy to create a business that generates a revenue consistently but you have to and make sure that funnel works like a charm. You have to know your metrics. It's a numbers game, that's it and once you understand that, you can then take this knowledge into almost any industry and niche and make an incredible living.

You don't have to buy anything. There are no secrets to success, there are just formulas and strategies.

Every business is different so you have test...

Plain and simple fact of life. Not all people are smart enough or motivated enough to work for themselves. People are lazy ... why not spoonfeed them? lol. Why bother? I'm not spending any of my time spoon-feeding people. My children are grown and feed themselves now.

If you don't have the motivation to get the information and skills that you need to make it online, you're simply not going to make it online. There isn't any secret, but successful people don't sit around waiting to be spoonfed.

I have sold many WSOs in my time on this forum, and I still do, and I never keep anything hidden away. I give as much information as I can.

I've come to realize that not everybody who reads what I am selling is going to want to put it into action. A lot of people think because something is so simple that it can't make them any money. The old mentality I always hear is, "I've heard about that. It requires work." Really? Of course, it does.

Making money online is all about putting forth some KIND of effort. There are definitely ways to make my money that can be on autopilot and won't require work, but that requires work upfront to get it making you money down the road, and I think a lot of people forget about that.

Spoonfeeding is just a bad idea. How will the person learn if someone ALWAYS or FEEDS him everything. Some of the best or most successful people online, learned everything themselves. They relied on articles and training but mostly they equipped themselves with theory and practiced it with how they perceive things. This is not an overnight thing, it is a step by step process.

Ever heard the old saying:

"You can drag a horse down to the lake but you can't make it drink the water".

A lot of people are just not willing to do what ever it takes to succeed. Too lazy and they have a job mentality.

Also most of the time, there is just overwhelming info that they don't know how or where to start.

There are many reasons. Business is hard when you start from the bottom, so for many unfortunate souls coming here, they simply don't have the resources, talent, skill, or motivation to succeed.

Also, many people make money online by selling the dream of making money online. That's why it's so hyped up all the time and it works...sadly. People who sell the dream don't care about you seeing results. They care about closing the sale and keeping you happy enough until the refund period where your money is theirs and you can't get it back.

It's the infamous carrot on the stick, smoke and mirrors, etc. The rabbit hole is deep and complicated.

You could lay out the exact methodology out, but there's a problem with that.

1. There are a lot of moving parts and trying to explain the scope of IM is difficult, even when you're telling the truth.
2. People are silly, for a lack of a better word, and they won't follow the directions even IF they are spoon fed to them like a child.

You can lead a boy to school, but you can't make him think.

The problem is that pitchmen only care about closing the sale and don't care about you seeing results. The flip side to this problem is that too many customers want something for nothing.

Hello JagSEO,
Life just does not work that way. Unless you win the Lotto or have a Trust fund, to make money you are going to have to put work in. No spoon feeding allowed

The reason why most here do not make money is that they are so easily persuaded by the hucksters that this stuff is easy money.

It is not easy money.

The business models are simple to follow but the work must be put in to realize success.

There are NO secrets kept here. There are NO warriors trying to keep things hidden from the others.

been doing business both offline and online
and i think the secret to making money
in both of these platforms is basically...

Building Relationships

We can talk about building your sales funnel,
building your sales page, building your own blog,
etc

but I really think that trust and relationship building
is the key ingredient to long term success..

I say long term cause I've always looked at things that way
ever since I've sold my past businesses before, jumping from
one business to another..

from my experience, the only way to freedom is by
investing your time and effort in something that you will do
the rest of your life

That's how I look at things now after 5 years of learning from
this forum

Make money online is a thing which requires lots of genuine efforts by the doer and at the same time inculcates many strategies taken care of which is not an easy task so if some one asks you that how you made your your self earn that huge amount then it will be hard for you to reply straight away that you did this or that exactly cause you put so much hard work to gather that knowledge and someone easily without effort wants the same then it will not easy for anyone to reply the answer straight away. so you need to think like that. That's why so many of bloggers or online money makers present their knowledge in that way so that the other guy realize the importance of his efforts that he made for his success. hope this answer help you to understand the confusion between the newbie and a professional.

The secret is you develop an entrepreneur mindset and get rid of your opportunity seeker mindset. The secret is taking action from the courses you have downloaded and purchased. The secret is doing whatever it takes to be successful and helping others out from your experiences. The secret is that you stay committed and follow through no matter how long it takes. The secret is that their is no overnight success story, everybody that you see that is successful is because they worked hard and earned it. The secret is that you are responsible for your future.

I'll leave you with this quote :

"When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breath than you'll be successful"
-Eric Thomas

The "secret" is taking action rather than staying here dreaming about it. Chances are, you probably already know some method that you can make good money from. You're just not making any money because you're not implementing it.

Spoon feeding does nothing if you're not willing to open your mouth and take the bite. Instead of searching for new knowledge, utilize the knowledge you already have. You'll learn ways to improve naturally, and they'll make far more sense than anything you read in a forum.

The sooner you take action, the sooner you'll see results.

I think here some good explanations about why some people make money and why the other not making it. One common thing is the persistence. That is required in every part of the life to be successful. So IM is not excluded.

What I figure out more you do the things more you understand the methods and you will start digging in deep. That is the whole philosophy, digging in deep for any money making method. The courses and materials usually just laydown a path for you to begin. It is totally up to you to take action and start your journey to reach your final target.

I personally feel that most people are not getting the results because they do not have the right mindset and they did not take enough action.

The surprising fact is that most of them do already have the knowledge that can make them money already but they are not taking action on it and they are still looking for the magic button.

I would say it requires a certain amount of commitment and effort before one can start to seeing some results.

According to me it is not impossible for anyone. One can earn money from online, if he wants. There is no doubt about it. I think in the internet there is no secrete, If one search on the search engine, he will get everything. It is easy to find out any thing.

Not everyone actually wants success, even if they tell themselves they do. Excuses are always available.

That's because most secrets are not revealed...

The secret is TRAFFIC. It doesn't matter how great your website is. If you can't generate enough TARGETED traffic, you're not going to make any money. Most people fail because they don't have a lot of money to spend into PPC and Google refuses to give them a lot of traffic because there's too much competition or their keywords don't get enough searches. If you're struggling to make money online, throw out the websites and try making money from a site that supplies all the traffic for you. Ebay is a great example because the traffic is already there.

P.S. Many people also struggle because their website doesn't look legitimate enough or doesn't have a reputation. Again, there are websites out there, such as Ebay, that supply you with that credibility.

The Secret to making money online is THERE IS NO SECRET! Simply provide value in the form of a service or a product and charge for it, period. NO SECRET, NO SECRET.

People who need to be spoonfed ought to hold on to JOBS and not come online to call themselves ENTREPRENEURS.

The world is for action takers, baby. NOT for babies waiting to be spoonfed.

Those waiting to be spoonfed are those who have been used by the gurus to make their money!

Keep taking consistent action and you'll make it.

That's about the only "secret" there is. However, it's an important one because absolutely anyone can be a successful Entrepreneur if they want it enough.
: )

Since when are lazy people entitled to have successful people spoon feed them by laying open their businesses so the lazy people can copy what they are doing to make money?

This kind of logic and thinking is evidence of the "gimme, gimme, I want it now" mentality of so many new wannabe entrepreneurs.

The Warrior Forum is wonderful evidence of experienced marketers volunteering their time and skills to help those who want to learn to market online. These marketers are not paid for their time. Most don't benefit directly from their sharing and caring attitudes. They have worked and worked until they figured things out.

Don't take this personally Jag, but I think there is an attitude adjustment that needs to be made by many new people here at the WF. No one owes you anything! If you get help, it is because of the goodness of those stepping up to answer your questions.

Most successful business owners have "paid the price," so to speak, in time, effort, money, sacrifice and failure to get to the point of profitability. Many have gone through bankruptcy, divorce, physical problems, and other aggravations in order to learn to do business. And you want these same people to spoon feed lazy people in their spare time. That thinking seems so wrong to me on numerous levels.

I am always willing to help if asked . . . but I'm not going to force feed lazy people who expect to bypass all the work in favor of a handout.

Steve

The world doesn't work like that.

The only secret is busting your ass, failing over and over again, and then testing some more.

More than enough people have already laid out their business models for you to be able to piece together your own pie.

Legitimate Offer + Traffic That Wants It = $$$$

That's the problem right there..

People make it harder than what it is.

People learn, but they don't take action.

People are looking for some secret (easy) method that doesn't exist. It takes WORK

People copy exactly other people expecting same results and just because it works for one person doesn't mean it will work for you.

The people who I found are successful learn the basics of marketing and master them and apply it to their business.

Innovating not just copy & pasting

I've spoon fed many people. It's funny to watch though. Some people will take what I tell them and make a lot of $ while others always have a better idea and screw it up.

There isn't a magic pill or secret sauce out there. Mostly just testing stuff to figure out what works and run with it.

The secret is the traffic!!!!
Learn how to get very targetted traffic spendind not more than 0,1 - 0,8 $/click
and you will have success.

of course you should choose the right niche and manage properly your mailing list, but traffic is very important!

Unfortunately I do not approve of this. If you want to be a successful person in this sector, you must have skill. Without skill, you will never be a successful person. So you have to know many things. Here there are many people who are earning a good amount of money, on the flip side there are many unskilled person, who will not earn a single penny.

It may one of the reason. But the lack of knowledge & Patience is fully responsible for this failure.

Theres no secret...people are just lazier and lazier by the day.

It is the culture we live in. It is the 99% vs the 1% mentality.

The answer is simple if you are in the 99% and want to be like the 1% then take action towards it. Always work towards it.

People overwhelm theirselves with more than one way to make money online eventually it leads them to a burnout state where they give up and choose to think that Internet Marketing is a scam, cause they are afraid to face their fear of failure, the truth is, everything is complicated in its simplicity, that's how i saw it when the money first started kicking in.
