Brand new with less than $100 - where do I start?

17 replies
If someone came up to you and said I'm brand new to IM but want to learn how to make $46,313 a day like all the gurus do - what advice or program would you recommend?

You find out the person does have some web building skills (html, FTP, basic stuff...), can write a complete sentence, and is ambitious as hell. BUT only has $100 to spend and no money to pay for monthly membership fees.

What advice or program would you recommend? (My 19 year old nephew ask me this question and I've yet to give him an answer)

What do you think?

    Hi,

    I think very few gurus make $46,313 a day, although I'm sure a lot of people claim to be "gurus" and make that amount.

    If your budget is limited focus on free info on internet marketing which you can get an abundance of.

    Also no guru can actually tell you the secrets to making a lot of money. You can learn from their experiences and adopt some of their methods, but it is really down to you.

    It is good you have some web building skills, writing ability and ambition. All you really need now is an idea and to be able to execute it. Think of an area you would be interested in and see if you think you can make it into an online business.

    All the best, Phil

      Obviously the $46,313 is a made up number but I've seen some crazy claims out there by the product pushers.

    I think it's impossible to make the number.

    But you can try this.

    Build as many high paying adsense website as you can. And then, flood them with visitors.

    You can do it by buy a software that's called RefererX.

    Ps: You also can try to combine the software with PPL. or something like that.

      Hi projek001. What results have you had from the method you suggest?

      Did you write the copy in your webpage (sig links) yourself?

        Thanks - all great advice.

        As a follow up, and this isn't a product review post (dedicated thread for that), if there is one product that you purchased that help kick-start your IM career what was it?

    there are as others have pointed out a myriad of ways to start, but if you have less than thirty dolloars to spend use this method and yuo will have money ina few weeks. Anyone can use it any niche, once you have achieved your fisrt several hundred dollars of profit then you have time to look around and add strings to your bow and improve your education.

    This method is especially useful because it is tried and rtested in virtually every niche and it does not need a huge amount of time or investment or knowledge.

    and follow it ot the letter and you will be making money within three weeks, rinse repeat do it again. Job done

    If anyone needs help on this pm me

    How about putting it on red or black? Just kidding. The problem with the figure you quoted, is that is putting quite a big mountain in front of you. I think most here would agree that you would start by thinking "how could I turn $100 into $200". So, you could start with article marketing which is free, promoting affiliate offers, to speed things up, you could outsource the writing to somebody else (here on the warrior forum). With the profit, you would re-invest.

    It's quite a hard one to answer because you are basically asking "how do I make money online". Anyway, my advice for what it's worth is to take small steps, concentrate on making the first fe bucks and then scale the operation up. Also, to get to that firgure, there would be a point where you would have to have staff working for you. And, would you really need that amount a day, what would you do with it all? Surely a thousand a day would be MORE than enough!???

    Your nephew needs to understand the different online business models and then select one of them to conduct.

    Then...

    ...obtain a step by step course on how to conduct the model.

    If your nephew can slap up pages on the net he's halfway home.

    Here's a thread that will help him with his choices of a proven online business model...

    You can buy a million "Guru" ebooks that claim to tell you how to make money in your sleep. The fact is that there are numerous ways to make money online ...there are no big secrets that are worth buying, most of the ebooks do not deliver what is promised and making money online takes work and time.

    I do it by flipping sites and many on here do it by selling their own products, which they had to develop and then market. Some do it with affiliate marketing. There's no blueprint. You need to develop your own blueprint and work to make it succeed.

    Instead of trying for that impossible "Flash in the Pan" windfall, build up a long-term sustainable business.

    Hope you guys don't mind as I've answered this on my blog.

    I think it's a very good question and one I can relate to very much.

    Here's what I wrote:

    Here's what I think.


    There are a few very good courses around for less than that.


    I would suggest do some research, get a decent course, study it, do what it says rather than just sit on it or stick it on a shelf, and then... don't expect miracles within a few days or even months.


    It's no fluke that 95% of new businesses go bust within the first year and then 90% of the remaining 5% go bust within the next five years.


    That means, if 1000 businesses start this year, at the end of the year 950 will go bust.


    Of the remaining fifty, fourty five will go bust by the end of five years.


    That's frightening, isn't it?


    The one thing I've noticed with all business people (who tell the truth) is that, they all say they learned HOW to do the business first, which took more than a few months, and they actually applied what they learned.


    If there's one thing I've learned it's this - Nothing in life worth doing is easy.


    And anyone who tells you business is easy is either lying or had a ton of cash upfront to get started.


    Even Richard Branson had rich parents, and he still did a lot of things ordinary people would not be willing to do simply because it would be seen to be dishonest.

    Look for a Guru to "sell yourself" to. You are trying to find a Guru who will buy you. Your loyalty and work for a certain number of years if they could teach you how to be like them.

    But...that is not how you make your money. As a matter of fact, you don't want to actually start looking for a Guru yet.

    You want to start documenting your plan, "How To Find A Guru To Buy Me" and write up Press Releases for the offline world.

    Send them to news agencies, Hollywood people, Oprah, Dr. Phil ( Dr. Phil, is it wrong to sell yourself to a guru?),...

    Remember, you don't want to contact any gurus yet. You want the publicity from the idea. Then, when you least expect it, you will have a ton of gurus that want to get in on your act call and contact you. You will have the pick of the litter.

    Soon, you can then have the gurus "buy the chance to own you".

    You can start making money from one lucky guru before he even teaches you how to make money.

    Then your big project the two of you can work on would be "You Too Can Sell Yourself To A Brand Name Guru".

    Affiliate marketing would be the best place to start and
    especially if you have no money or as little as a $100 to start.

    Find a good product to promote especially one that offers
    100% commission and instant payments via paypal.

    And start driving traffic to this affiliate offer. For ways on doing
    this, simply look via this forum or online by doing a google search
    on free or low cost ways to generate traffic.

    Hope this helps

      1. Don't listen to the Guru's, or at least the ones who call themselves a guru. Just look a what they do, and copy it. ( I personally prefer other ways to make money, but it's an option)

      2. Don't buy into hype. You ACTUALLY need to work - a lot, to make good money in IM.

      3. Start small. Build 1 website, and focus on it until it makes some money. Then scale out, and start outsourcing, once you know what works, and get people to do that for you.

      4. Set time-based goals. Both short-term and long term.

      5. Do something to motivate yourself every day, and also do something to get closer to both your long-term and short-term goals. It all adds up eventually.

      6. Always believe in yourself, and never listen to people who says it's impossible to make money online. If they get too annoying, show them this funny video:

      Now, I'm not rich myself, but I know I will be

      Good luck!

    I would suggest you give hive a link to the wf or similar and tell him to read as many posts as he can over the next month ,
    then come back to yo with what he has learnt.

    knock the suffing a bit by telling him better to start small and grow and it takes x amount of time. But yo will help for a small return on profits after x months.

    then sit with him over a beer/coffee and list out all he has gleaned over the month

    put this into an action plan for the next month
    and check with him each week that he is doing it.

    rinse and repeat.

    after a few months ask him for a commission on what he has earnt!!!

    you never know it may be another revenue stream for you!!!

    easy answer.
    if you are full time.

    BUILD A LIST FROM DAY ONE.

    split up your time.
    do the bum marketing method in a big way, but direct it to a domain of your own! send the bum business to a sub domain.
    70% of your time doing that then....
    on the same subject start to build up a great content rich website on a similar topic.
    spend more time planning this...
    10% of your time...

    finally use up the last 20% in putting together your own product. start with a small and easy one. do it mostly with videos. use the continuity method.

    keep to the same subject in all three as your list can then be used for all.

    cool.
    send me a cheque when you hit those numbers that you mentioned.
