Secret Strategies for Online Success

24 replies
This is for all Newbie, intermediate and Advanced marketers Alike.

Read this article with an open mind. Devote just 10 minutes and do not skim through it.

=================
One Problem that has faced and will continue to face newbie and intermediate marketers is INFORMATION OVERLOAD. Too many information flying here and there, yet there is only few success stories.

I have made an observation and i don't know if anyone has observed this too. Whenever i log into the forum, there is always more views on WSO section than any other sections of this forum. Maybe it is because of the sub forums under it. But i don't think so. Many people are simply consuming information and jumping from on trick to the other.

The secret strategy to help you succeed online is "Action".

What is action, action is applying those information in your head and starting up something now. STOP BUYING, START SELLING.

STOP LISTENING AND START TALKING, BECOME THE GURU.

When Thomas Edison decided to attempt inventing a practical electric bulb, far more intelligent scientists had spent 50 years trying to do the same. and when Henry ford started his auto mobile company, there were already 250 in the USA.

You see, There can be countless of websites on the internet doing what you planned to do and countless of excuses why you shouldn't blog, build a list or do affiliate marketing,but the truth is you just must start somewhere and starting somewhere means doing one of these things.

The Secret Strategy the Smart marketers are Using


The smart marketers do the following:

They understand what they are doing, and they always take action. They don’t just take action, they take action with a plan, and not just taking actions with a plan, they try out different methods and split test, from these, they know what Is working and what is not.

Then they get results. The results might not be what they are expecting, but at least they get result, they then track their results and rinse repeat working techniques.

Finally, they see a future in what you are doing.

So if you are ready to become a professional marketer then do the following:

• Learn what it takes
• Take action and apply what you are learning
• Have a plan and Set goals
• Try out different methods and Try new techniques
• Know what works and what is not working
• Get result and track these results
• Rinse and Repeat the working methods
• See a future in what you are doing

That’s it and I believe you can begin something. Now is a good time to start something new as March is coming to an end and April is coming soon, make April your month of Success.

If you don’t see future yet in IM, Here is my advice, better quit and find a job.
Don’t forget you’ve got what it takes and only you can make your success come true. If you are ready for real success this month then START NOW.
Wishing you the best.

    Shiny ball syndrome is probably the most common problem with new marketers. Don't hesitate, pick one niche and go for it.

    I created my account here 5 years ago, and I'm a total newbie mpw.
    I hadn't a plan then, but I have it now - that is the difference.
    It is not easy to pick a niche, and go for it.
    Shiny object syndrome + lack of turn-based strategy + procrastination + worthless ebooks,wso = disappointment

    Yes. Right.
    By taking action, you know what's work and what's not working.
    By taking action, you can also create a case study that will generate you commission and even sales of your own products. Thanks for sharing

        Secret strategies? Those points have been made every day on this board for years, yet it seems that every new poster feels the need to regurgitate the same old mantra as if it's some freshly-minted discovery.

        It's astounding that after something like 15-20 years of online commerce, there are still those who believe internet marketing is an activity carried out by some sort of underground cabal jealously guarding its hoard of arcane secret methods.

        It's 2015. Most people are now not only aware of this phenomenon called the internet, but are comfortable using it as a channel through which to spend money on goods and services. Marketers don't need secret strategies. The principles that make for success in any business will apply just as much to an online enterprise. All you have to do is provide a product or service that people are willing to pay you for in sufficient quantity or value to result in a profit after factoring in your costs of doing business.

        Buzzwords and phrases such as "rinse and repeat" and "take action" (you have to take action to get any kind of job ) are just distractions that divert would-be marketers from concentrating on the basics.

        Wrong Mr. Robert Andrew. Not everyone is out for that. If i intend to sell something, I will Launch a WSO. or Use my website and Facebook ads is dirt cheap and will surely get me a handful of traffic.

        And if i intend to use free ways Warrior forum classified ads, craigslist and even my sig is all available.

        Change that mentality.

    When you learn everything you need to learn about internet marketing, the best thing you can do is to TAKE ACTION. This will tell you if your actions work or not. This will tell you that you are in the right direction or not. If you plan of actions make you money, then keep doing it over and over again.

    Information overload is indeed a big problem these days. Especially for the people who're just learning about IM. But you can't perform any action without knowing a thing or two about it first.. The problem lies in knowing when to stop reading and start doing.

  • Honestly, it doesn't matter if somebody decides to repost what has already been said.

    This forum has new people coming to it everyday who could always get some of the old information given to them this time.

    Yes, the info on this thread has been said before....and it has been talked about plenty of times in the past, but it doesn't hurt to make another post about it.....

    So what if he plans on selling something?

    In reality, this forum is FOR making money online. People make good money selling their products. If he decided to make a post to promote his sig or amp up his reputation....it doesn't matter.

    If he tried selling to you, you don't HAVE to buy whatever he is selling. People act as if sellers BEG them to buy their stuff. They aren't pressuring you with a gun to your head to buy their products. Don't like him? Fine. Don't buy anything from him. It's really that simple.

    Thanks for sharing, I don't think its really a secret but good tips and most importantly -- take action, start doing and learn from your mistakes and efforts

  • To fail to plan, is to plan to fail.

    Newbies don't want to spend money on advertising to drive traffic to their offers. They fall in love with SEO because it won't take any money immediately out of their pocket. But in the long run they grow discouraged wondering what the reasons are that they are not succeeding online.

    Paid traffic is the best form of traffic. It's instant and scalable. That's what a business need to survive, instant scalable traffic.

    Once the newbie understands this age old business concept, they will not make any money online

    Not only shiny ball syndrome. You need to remove all distractions and focus on single tasks.

    Shut your phone off, shut your email off. Turn off Skype and shut your office door.

    You can't take action if your always distracted!

    For me this is the single biggest thing I struggle with.

    At least after a while all the shiny new balls all start to look the same. But being distracted by other forms of communication never does.

    Hi GJ,

    True words here.

    The trip up point is some IMers - or most - skip the simple steps, because they're impatient, bored, greedy or lazy. Or some other low energy emotion

    I did for many years.

    One day I woke up; I figured if successes kept things simple and did things like creating value and connecting with pros maybe I should too.

    The tide turned. I prospered. Create and connect.

    IMers should treat this like both a school and business.

    Schooling, for learning, studying and practicing, and business for putting in the hours.

    Thanks for sharing

    Capital-S "Set goals"? Nothing against Set but I hear that Ra Hera'khuity is better for going for your goals, while Set whacks away at your enemies.

    (Sorry but that one was too much to resist.)

    Oh no, just what we need... more and more fake gurus creating low quality WSO's. It's not just about becoming a seller and taking action. It's more about creating real value and taking correct actions.

    Most people on this form have not created anything of value to offer. Most will be better off promoting other people's products than creating 2nd rate products. And even more have no business being in business and are better off working for someone else.

    Of course, "TAKING ACTION" is the name of the game and something a lot of folks (IMers) don't do! Flitting from one thing to another (WSO to WSO) is a good way to avoid their fear of failure or their fear of success ... whichever applies!

    It's been stated here on the WF time and time again ... focus on one thing >>> take action/create a plan >>> test and tweak >>> rinse and repeat when successful.

    Another thing they don't do is use the "SEARCH" button to find threads already addressing the issue about which their new thread regurgitates.

    Finding our way to success isn't that hard ... we make it hard by not thinking and not taking the proper steps to make it happen!
