Hey guys,

Newbie here again with a question about your personal experience with IM. I was wondering how long it took any of you to get to a point where you felt like the money was worth your time and a viable form of income. I know that this is different for everyone so feel free to explain what you consider to be "viable" and "worth your time". Also how long did it last ? Is it still working for you? Can't wait to hear from you guys.

    My income fluctuates depending on the time and effort I put in. I think this is the same for everyone, I might be wrong though.

    John, IM has been worth it for my bookkeeping and accounting service business since I started marketing in 2012. I started out spending 1 hour per day marketing online, and within 2 weeks my traffic increased 20% and by the end of the first month that marketing converted to 4 new clients, and continue to grow today.

    For example, I follow and comment on blogs that compliment my niche and the traffic, conversion, and subsequent "word of mouth" referrals that I get from doing so, has continued even today. The right marketing for the desired business model can yield favorable results not only in the short-term, but long-term as well.

    So, with that in mind, it is worth it!

    For me it took about 3 years. I would always stop, then restart. And etc. Honestly though, when people say that you can earn $4,000/month within the next 6 months... this is possible.

    But it's a combined function of time + money (advertising). If your credit sucks, and have no collateral, and you go to a loan officer at the bank.... they will laugh and tell you to get a credit card if you only want a $10,000 loan. Plus you need 20% (TODAY) as a down payment.

    Most serious companies they deal with ask for loans around $70,000 and above. This shouldn't discourage you - but you should know what you're getting into - and that you don't believe alot of crap on the internet.
