Hi Everyone,

Happy New Year and I hope a prosperous one to you all.

I am new to the whole internet marking scene even though this is my 10th year working in the IT industry. My 2010 will consit of trying to clear lots of debts including my mrtgage hopefully so I can spend more time with my wife and 15 month of daughter. I need to make £50K to clear all my debts, I have given myself 2 years. Do you think it is possible for me to do this and in what timescale? I am looking at the Google Sniper product to get me going.



thankyou for your replies.

    I don't know anything about the Google Sniper product, but I'd say yes it is possible, with lots of hard work. It won't happen on auto pilot over night! And you may make little to no money your first month or two, but if you stick with it, and continue to work on it, it is very possible in 2 years with effort!

      Hi,

      You can do it if you are happy to work for it. Don't get involved in anything that may get you further in debt like PPC until you know what you are doing. Also try not to just from new product to new product and take any product that claims to make you rich overnight with a pinch of sale.

      Finally set yourself a target each month. Start with achieveable ones.

      i.e make $100 a month
      The aim to make $100 a week
      Then $100 a day etc.

    Yes it is possible but it'll depend on you finding something you are good at and sticking with it.
    In relation to investing in something I'd suggest you look around this forum first and consider joining the War Room (where you'll find many blueprints from some very successful people laid out for you covering many different aspects of IM).

    Good Luck

      Since the original poster asked over a 2yr period then it is very possible. Find a method and stick with it whether it be CPA or Bum Marketing.

      Good luck to you!

    There are lots of good methods around. I am not dissing Google Sniper, far from it. But it would pay to look around first, sign up with a few of the gurus and start getting a feel for what's happening. That'll make it easier to hook up with something you're intererested in (just wanting to make money isn't always good enough to motivate you to do the work).

    Just for the record, I didn't do it this way round myself (just went for the money) and it cost me dearly. For all it's worth.

    Good luck

    It is more than possible with focused work.

    I suffered some terrible things in 2008 - lost a bucket load of money on a Property Investment which turned sour (really really sour) and had my identity stolen.

    From Oct 2008 to Oct 2009 i cleared the loss.

    If you are new to IM then you need to be careful. It is very easy to jump from one thing to another and lose focus.

    Find what you are good at, make money from it - then rinse and repeat.

    Wish you the best.

      Samir, google sniper is an alright product. But if you take action, test and tweak, No-a one can stop you from making a million pounds. Often,in my experience, IT people suffer from tunnel vision. They take a hell lot of time to take action. I hope you make the progress you want in your life.

      Happy new year to all.

    You'll need to make more than £50k if you have £50k debts.

    Don't forget HMRC, your trusted trading partner wants their share :-)

      Samir,

      Love the post, what are you looking to do? PPC, PPV, Article marketing?

      I did 50K (US) in 120 days, so I know for a fact it is possible and since it was with BUM marketing, there were no expenses I had to pay for and this was great because at the time I was really struggling.

      Your goal is 100% doable.

      Article marketing is an excellent way to make money and is perfect for beginners.

      The best advice I can give that helps me is to stay focused on one method and once find something working for you, stay with that particular method, build up and outsource. That is what I did, I found something that worked, and drilled into it.

      Just make sure you do not have info overload, because it can paralyze anyone from making money online.

      Pick one area and then master it

      I find myself almost in the same exact position. I have been in the IT field for over 10 years. Was a sys. admin and I am now a Network Engineer. It's not that I don't like what I do, but it is more an issue of dealing with the daily corporate crap that is really getting to me.

      James: could you expand on 'could mean many different things'? I have thought about putting up a blog in relation to my field, but finding or know what to focus on is where I 'kinda get lost'.

    Of course it can be done, especially with your background in IT. I wouldn't count your mortage as debt that must be urgently repaid. It is low interest and not in the same category as other debts. A lot of people have mortgages much higher than that.

    Hi Samir,

    I know it is possible to make this kind of money online. (even I do not make it yet... ) It is a good idea to star with Google sniper, but don't just stay there keep learning, read this forum and participate....

    The Google sniper is a powerful taking to profit form a lucrative niche!
    What that means?

    Find the niche or a sub-niche: use a Google external tool, find a good keyword and profit.

    Google luck!

    Like you, i am a newbie to the whole world of IM and like you, i have debts that i don't particularly like. However, i have approached the whole experience slightly differently, i know in the end i want to earn the money, but i also know that i have to teach myself how the industry works FIRST. Unless you are exceptionally lucky, you WILL NOT make money straight off. 50K in 2 years is easily achievable, BUT you need to be prepared not to earn much in the first 6 months. If you need money more urgently, i'd suggest getting a paid job to keep the cash flowing whilst learning the industry in your spare time and building your list. Then you can start to make money. I'd also suggest starting out with a simple product, something that is automated and where you get a lot of assistance. If you go for a product that has sponsors, PLEASE (and i can't stress this enough) make sure they wont take your money and leave you dry - trust me, it happens. I'm not pushing my product, but it is one of those where huge amounts of information are available, we work in teams and most importantly it is simple.
    Oh - and keep the faith - you will get there

    The simplest strategy would be to pick a profitable niche, a domain to go along with it.

    Write at least minimum 1 article a day for 10 days, do some promotion after 10 days, put Adsense ads and then continue writing min 1 article a day for 80 days more.

    Do nothing else, think nothing else. Stay focused with single minded determination.

    You will find that your site would be on first page of numerous keywords, bringing good traffic, and revenue.

    No chance of failure.

      This is sound advice.

      BUT.

      730 days to make 50,000gbp works out at 69gbp per day.

      You have to agree with me here and say that making that
      with Google AdSense is extremely hard work. What I would
      do is create your own product around the niche that you
      focus on, try and get sales whilst building a mailing list, and
      whilst doing this provide your previous customers with
      top quality relevant and useful content. Towards the end
      of the 730 days I would do a 'Mass Control' style launch for
      a mid-range priced info product and then in the last month
      flip the site with proof of unique visitors, revenue etc..

      Sounds easy on paper aye

      And of course this won't work for some niches.

        Somehow you missed suggesting setting up squeeze pages, doing split testing, setting up adwords campaigns and further testing different ad copies and landing pages...

        I am sure this would be quite a wonderful advice to somebody who is new to internet marketing.

        Even the biggies could not have done it in their start up phase.

        Why can't we Keep It Simple

        IM IMHO can not be done on a mathematical formula. While maths may say that you may have to earn 69GBP daily for two years, as suggested, to earn 50K GBP, it does not always work like that. It is a simple truth that once you start out on IM, it could be weeks or months before you are able to see a single cent. It is only later that the revenue starts gathering momentum and grows first to $1 a day, and more.

          You've contradicted yourself a little!

          That was what I was trying to do - keep

        It surely does not sound simple.

        By the way, where is the OP?

        It seems that while the members are churning out ideas, he has decided to abstain from further comments.

    Hi There!
    This is possible, with your knowledge in IT you could setup a blog and write tutorials making revenue from selling your own product on the blog.

    If i was in your situation i would write a business plan and take action! Find something you like doing, rinse and repeat, you may find yourself doing several money making methods and not earning, Stick to one and your plan and rewards will come then you can start thinking about outsourcing
