Newbie desiring an IM course. Recommendations, please?

I would suggest Neil Patel IM course.

Do you have any particular direction you want to go such as CPA, affiliate offers, product creation, content creation, etc. or are you just looking for a good general foundation? The recommendations may be different depending on your answer.

Tom Addams has some strong advice there; you need to find the right area for you and spend time feeling it out.

Certain paths work for certain people and others will prefer a different direction. Courses may bottleneck your visibility, but can also inspire you when you see others who have taken the journey before.

If you are curious about good places to find courses, then I would primarily suggest:
Creative Live (live workshops and talks on a variety of subjects, including self-motivated businesses),
Creative Bloq (frequently discount online courses),
and either Udemy (for more courses) or Neil Patel (for general marketing/business practice).

Do take Tom's advice though and don't narrow yourself too early on. If/when you do feel the need for courses and inspiration, Creative Live is a great place to start.
Good luck!

If you have enough budget, get a reputable mentor who have done it coaching program and guide will be faster than pouring money into courses especially you will be easily information overload which usually happen to newbie, like me in the past lol. Courses is good but however with mentor is better as they will guide you but the cons for coaching program is with good coaching program usually quite costly unless you can find someone who just started coaching program AND he really have done it and success in term of example reach maybe $5,000/month CONSTANTLY from affiliate income. Another cons is you have do research on the coach also, I believe you don't want to waste your money on those so called "guru".

If you have limited budget, then I will recommend choose one online income method course, focus and become specialize in that field. Result come in how fast depend how committed you are and how focus you are. I used to side track a lot when I just started because all the killer headlines in different online income methods is so tempting to try out. lol

If no money, then go for dropshipping can start with $0 which is how I started my journey. Post it in your country mobile market app or other classified website you should be able to get sales within 1 or 2 days. Use the profit get the course you want to learn, example affiliate marketing.

Hope this help. Wish you all the best!

One of the first places I went to was www.Smartpassiveincome.com

Good stuff that I learned about IM over the years

Go to udemy and search for your desirable courses. Some good quality courses there.

More courses are available. You must see which one works for you.

For the technical side of things YouTube is your best friend. There's a TON of tutorials on there you can watch.

Hi Cheri,

I'd think "What does an online business look like to you?"

Do you want to sell other people's stuff or your own stuff?

Do you want to build a following?

Are you already a natural social networker?

Do you like writing?

Ask yourself lots of questions about what you really want.

How much time you want to spend,

How much money you want to invest.

Once you get a general picture of what your ideal business looks like you can start to look for solutions to move towards that result.

From a personal perspective I like selling my own stuff.

So I have ecommerce businesses that sell products we manufacture and source.

Have training courses for my industry and areas of expertise.

Consult to other business owners who want to generate more business.

My ideal lifestyle is one where I can spend more time with my loved ones and do what I enjoy.

So what does my usual week, month or year look like? (I've been self employed since 1992 so I've got a pretty good idea about how to survive and prosper by generating my own income and lifestyle.

Build the picture you want for your life.

It doesn't have to look out too far or aim for unrealistic things. Just work out how many hours you want to work and what sort of money you need to get for those hours.

Work out your passions.

It is far easier working on something you are passionate about than something you're not.

Build something around your passions that doesn't rob you of the time you want to spend enjoying life.

Here is the thing about doing something you are passionate about.

You will work harder and longer than you expect from time to time and even when you have something really working and it all seems like life is sweet things will change and you will need to dig deep and work hard.

When you do something you are passionate about it is easier to dig deep in the hard times and easier to make money in the good times.

There are many good courses for you to study and not all of them require you handing over your life savings to take.

When you are ready express more of your desires. skills or passions here on the forum or privately to people you trust and get some feedback, get some advice much like you are seeking now and don't rush into something that looks like a good idea if it doesn't fit with your vision.

Take your time because even once you decide on a path it will take time and commitment.

This is one of the reasons I chose early on to sell my own products.

Sure I promote other stuff and sell other stuff but if you build a core product or a core business you create something of value that will return value to you over time and also create value if you want to sell the business later.

The reason stairs or ladders were created is they made it easier to move upwards.

An escalator or elevator may move you up to a higher level quickly but it also takes you back down quickly also.

Step by step is the key.

Learn a little and risk a little as you gain experience.

All the best.

Kind regards,

Ozi

If your just starting out the 4% group is the best for creating a solid foundation. Because it shows you every step of the process. To build a genuine online business and succeed in the IM space your will need to know how to, generate traffic, create a landing page, create a lead magnet, use custom tracking, use an autoresponder, communicate with leads, convert leads to sales. The 4% group is the only IM course that provides training on all these aspects. Hope this was helpful

To start and learn everything from top to bottom and be up and running in a very short period of time, I would say join the Four Percent Group.
Trust me when I tell you I've tried it all and this is the most comprehensive and complete system I have seen yet! All the best to you.

Thanks everyone for some great advice. I have some work ahead of me, as I will be a student of learning. WoooHooo! And WF is a such a great place to learn. Thank you!
