In The Mood To Help A Newbie?

Hey there,

I have been sitting back quietly for 4 years trying to absorb all I can about IM..
Only problem is I now have information overload and can't remember half of it..

I have recently come to the conclusion that I have spent long enough sitting back and reading. I am now ready to get off my butt and do something.

I realize that most programs/guides online do work, well the legit ones atleast. You just need to have the perserverance and will to follow through and then you can reap the benefits and move ahead of the other 90% of your competition who fails to realize this and they quit.

I was wanting to ask if anyone could point me in the direction of a good free course, or give me an outline of what I should do to get started. I am looking at either marketing products from Clickbank or CPA offers.

Those are the two choices which I have chosen to start with.

Please keep in mind I need this to be a completely free method as I am 17 and currently have no cash ($.75) in my paypal . The time it takes to complete the guide or outline you give me does not matter. I have TONS of spare time. School has not started yet so I have plenty of time to devote to this challenge, project, and life goal of mine .

All advice, help, and information is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Here's my advice:

    Try and work some job on MacDonalds, KFC, Canes, walmart whatever and build some capital because you will need some money to pay for a domain and hosting and 75 cents won't cut it.

    Second of all, you need to pick one method (And you can find TONS of them on this forum) and work at it.

    EDIT: I also don't think you have enough "fire" in you or in other words you are simply not motivated enough. I mean, if you are then why have you been sitting down for 4 Years without even trying one single method?

    Now if you really think you can pull it off, I was say go ahead and dive right in but trust me you will want to quit a hundred times and if you do you will fail as long as you keep quitting. Just pick ONE METHOD and STICK to it.

        I wasn't joking when I wrote this but I guess it came out that way.

        I seriously think that if you don't already have some funds then making money will be VERY difficult. I mean, that's how it went for me.

        I had to initially spend some money on outsourcing, tools etc and that's when I really cracked it. Today, I outsource all of my work because doing everything is simply not for me. I cannot do too many things at the same time and when I try to I lose track and just don't do any. But I have the money to outsource so I don't have to worry about doing it myself and I can simply concentrate on marketing.

        I have a feeling that this post went way off topic so I'll just end it here

      Mohammad's right about choosing one method. When you do pick one just learn all the information you can about that method, get an understanding of it then just do it.

      I would hit up the family for domain, hosting etc while your still learning. I found a job was to distracting when I was learning this stuff

      I'll just throw this out there one more time

      The Challenge

      I'm telling you man, it's perfect for what you're looking for. I know because just over a year ago I was in the same spot you're in. This training was the difference maker for me.

      If you decide to take the challenge, send me a message and I'd be happy to let you catch up with me so we can work through it together. I'm just starting it this year myself (it's new material every year).

      Good luck
      Derek

    I see myself in your words, by this I mean I sat back and visited this forum for a while (3-4 months) and read everything I could. I felt that I had wasted enough time not doing anything and decided to take action.

    If I were you I would start off with CPA as it is much easier to get leads then it is sales and this will help boost your self-esteem and confidence, helping you to advance in IM.

    All the best in the future.

    I know Derek,

    I am trying to follow along but.. honestly I want something I can have set up and start to see some kind of results in a month... The new Challenge is spanned over like 3 or 4 months...

    Thanks for the suggestion though.

      Fair enough.

      But my piece of friendly advice... more often than not, it doesn't happen that quickly. And most people that tell you it can are usually trying to sell you something.

      Best of luck though,

      None taken. I was just "in the mood to help", and you can take it or leave it.

      But yes, I'm a 30DC veteran, and no, they don't sell anything. Completely free training and tools.

      Good luck,

      I'm a little curious.

      Are you already selling some WSOs by yourself?

      I saw you giving out this advice to couple of people but I can't find a WSO by you.

      Am I missing something here???

    4 years isnt a newbie. you've been at it longer than probably half the people here already.

    Sounds like you're getting some good advice around here. I have to agree with most of it.

    Take one thing you've found interest in and stick with it until you make money. Don't jump on the next idea you come on before you've found success with the one before.

    I started with blogging. Earned money from Adsense just from driving traffic to my blog. I recommend trying that because it's free to sign up with Adsense.

    My problem with Adsense is... age lol

    "Legally" I can't use adsense lol.

    But I got some help from SamBakker and I thank you for that.

    And yeah now I wish I would have used those 4 years of actually taking action and not sitting on my butt reading the new "best thing"

    I mean I have probably read every possible keyword research strategy out there... now I just wish I had remembered half the stuff I had read..

    I have a bad memory I don't know if it's from all my previous skateboarding accidents or what but for somereason nowadays its hard to remember stuff.. and ADHD doesn't help.. lol

    Thanks for all the help thought. It really is appreciated atleast by me if no one else reads this.
