What is Best Advice you got Here on WF?

22 replies
I ask this question because I have this one line I heard here about 2 weeks ago ruminating in my mind ... GREAT advice. It was from the wise sage Dennis Gaskill. Here is what he said:

"Do not burn bridges ... build them."

So, how about you? Care to share?

    It's hard to upstage Mr. Gaskill's quote but I think honesty in today's world would be a novel idea. Don't sugar coat and no BS. You will catch people off guard because they expect just the opposite.

    "If you are not making enough money, you are not helping enough people."

    PV Reymond said that in one of my coaching sessions with him, and it's really stuck with me.

    I got great copywriting advice here... "Just tell 'em what you got, why it's so great, give 'em an offer they can't refuse, and don't beat around the bush."

    Ahh the age old struggle for the ADD ... LOL.

    Probably, the best advice was: stay away from the WF - do your stuff instead
    (of course, they meant not to spend too much time around here if your work is not done yet!)

      That is good advice as I know that I got a lot more done when the WF was down the other day.

    The best advice I ever got on here was to "Take Action" and stop reading course after course. I love information and learning new things but I gotta take Action once I learn what and how to do it.

        I think his last name is "Everybody," but I can't remember the first name. Almost? Effectively? Damn-Near? Something like that.

    Tips and experience about Affiliate programs. I have not been familiar with Affiliate before. Yes, I was just a beginner at Affiliate marketing. But not, through the tips here, I am getting familiar with it gradually.

    There is almost TOO many thing that I have learned here,

    its such a awesome community to be a part of,
    and I am really thankful for that

    As for advice, the one thing that stands out in my mind is
    to TAKE ACTION.

    You'll never make any progress if you do nothing.

    Pretty basic, and kind of common sense.

    But powerful as heck.

    So half the time, you should be investing in your own
    knowledge by learning all you can about a particular topic or process.
    Then the other half of the time, you should be TAKING ACTION on
    what you learned.

    Do this, add some persistence and you will succeed.

    Its a fact.

      I agree. From the time that I got started here to this very day, I never stop learning something.
