I got some time, what could I do?

I have an abundance of time right now for a while. What should I be doing besides playing Pokemon all day or something?

    If you're into gaming and already have an autoresponder, why not start a blog on gaming? In conjunction, you could also create a Youtube channel. I know doing video game reviews and stuff like that is really popular on there. Just keep in mind that whatever you do isn't going to happen overnight (at least not until you have a business model already set up and stuff).

    Get a job.... because if you need to ask what should you be doing instead of deciding what you want to go get... then you are not a go getter... so you need a boss to tell you what to go get... and to hold you accountable for getting the job done.

    If you work for yourself like you would for a boss then you would succeed... but you don't. You goof off and play games because you don't have a boss to put a boot up your rear and make you do what's required to turn a profit.

    Sorry but most people need a job and not a business because of the above reason.

    Without an a coach and a 'accountability partner' you will simple play on the internet all day long and not ever get around to doing everything one needs to do to succeed in any business.

    You don't even know what business you want to be in... and please don't tell me you want to be an Internet Marketer... that's not a business... it's just one way to market a business. Do not mistake the method of advertising/marketing for a business.

    Sincerely,
    SteveSki

      I couldn't disagree more with this. Everyone needs some direction in anything they do - some more than others. If I had heard your advice 12 months ago and taken it seriously, I would be working somewhere I don't enjoy, instead of making sales. I needed a lot of direction - both directly through warrior members, and just reading through the forums. Nobody (as far as I'm concerned) inherited this knowledge - hence why I think this is a more than appropriate, viable question (although very broad given we know nothing of the OP other than he likes pokemon and is bored... and has an autoresponder) to be asking.

      The fact is: he's here seeking assistance, meaning he has some drive to achieve it. Being a negative nelly really serves no purpose other than making people feel like failures before they even begin.

      I am incredibly glad I didn't read something like this when I first started.

    I did the same few years ago when I built my game site, and now I earn a lot of money from it

      Learn. Then take action. Make mistakes. Learn from mistakes. Take more action. Repeat.

        i agree, read WF post, learn, apply, take action, scrap stuff that does not work, keep doing stuff that gets results, and makes you money.

        I started doing this in 1992 and went from making $0 a day to over $700 a day online, plus my other affiliate stuff.

        in all seriousness, do not be that guy who comes in here, reads and ready till he is blue in the testicles. Get off your ass, do some work, take action....as I have always liked that saying...... ACTIONS BREED RESULTS!

        and nothing can be MORE TRUE!

        Good luck.

    First of all, pick up a pen and a paper and put together a plan/brief. Then you have something you can stick to and also measure your progress. I think what you need right now is discipline.

    Start utilizing that autoresponder of yours.

    Create some follow ups and start sending some traffic to it.

    Pokemon... by the sound of things it appears as if you have quite a way go, in terms of even making the first steps. If I were you I'd consider getting a job at least part time. Possibly in media seeing as that's something you seem to be passionate about. Then that way you'll some money to maintain the ncesstieis to build the essentials of a niche business.

    A lot of gamers grow very quickly via video marketing on YouTube and all. So you could consider doing something like this, alongside building a Facebook Page with related content including yours.

      The best thing to do is this:

      1. Find a sub niche that is targeted
      2. Build an email list.
      3. Send email to this list every day.
      4. Create a front end product
      5. Create a continuity program for your niche
