Default Do You Enjoy The Process?

Hi Guys,

I was thinking a lot about this lately and would like to know how the rest of you feel.

Do you enjoy Internet Marketing?

I for the most part do. I, obviously, am in this for the money but I do really enjoy it and all the additional benefits it brings.

The things that I enjoy the most about Internet Marketing so far are copywriting because it's just so awesome to be able to write a sales letter and then have it doing all the work for you without you even being there.

I also think waking up in the morning to see some sales have been made while I sleep as something I'll never tire of.

So how about you guys?

What do you most like/dislike about the wonderful world of Internet Marketing?

Cheers,
Kenny

I LOVE the process...

For me it's the sexiest part ...

I'm the kind of marketer who gets a site up and running smoothly, then moves on and only comes back to it when stats look a little shady..

It's the process that gives me the kicks...

Keyword research, forum research, testing, working out the tweaks and changes...

So..

YUP... Love the process...

Jay

p.s. The money's good too ;-)

Jay,

Great to hear you enjoy it too.

I remember Warren Buffet saying that he enjoys the process more than the proceeds BUT still really enjoys the proceeds too!

Kinda sums it up eh?!

Being able to spend all my time at home with my family means the world to me. Because of this, I am grateful.

I do enjoy the process, I like to do research, I like to create new things, and I love seeing those sales come in!

I think it plays into the little tiny bit of ADHD I have I love new things, I love change and where can you get a steady diet of change and new except in IM?

I love learning new software, new technology and putting up new sites. Still excited about seeing a site that I built up on the Internet!

I really do enjoy it! No job in the world is nicer than working in the comfort of my own home with all the comforts that go along with it.

Not to mention I only work an hour or so per day - so it's truly unbeatable!

I love the process of getting an idea, researching it, putting together the product, site, and getting the site out there. The sales part of it of trying to get JV's etc. is my least favorite but without it--all I would have would be lonely sites not making any money. :-)

I think I enjoy the process too much!

For years I was an engineer so I tend to analyze stuff to death! I like the analytics, the tweaking, the research. I especially love this new thing I'm using with the heat maps and stuff.

Only problem is I spend time analyzing stuff I've already done when I could be writing and getting backlinks.

I haven't made a lot of money yet so you'd have to say I love it, otherwise I would have quit long ago!

Gail,

i think we may have been twins seperated at birth!

I love building up new sites, trying out new things and just doing it. As others have said, there is no greater feeling than seeing the fruits of that process arriving every day. I love IM and when I stopped enjoying my teaching job I was totally certain as to where I could utilise my talents best.

The bits I don't enjoy, because I either don't have the abilities or I find somewhat boring or tedious I outsource. I work smarter now and it works.

My particular joy comes from the development process - I hate the marketing part. I can work day and night developing new products but when all is said and done, when it's time to market them I lose interest in a hurry.

Taking my Girlfriend's calls any time without making here feel neglected due to my work!



On a more serious not, its the ability to setp up at any time and be able to HELP others and make thier lives bhetter all the while making mine evenm better gives an adrenaline rush...

I mean if oyu ask what would I like- TV or IM...

I'd say- where's the option?
.

I live, breathe, think, process and basically do everything that is IM...
