What would you invest 1500 $ into?

15 replies
Hi fellow Warriors,

What would you do in my situation?

I have 1500$ in my pocket ATM,and I can invest an extra 200$ of my money every month for the next half year.

-I have very little HTML/CSS experience,i know some basics.
-I know how tu build and use wordpress blogs(premade ones of course).
-I know a lot about SEO(just theory).
-I know a lot about affiliate marketing(just theory)
-I know a lot about adsense(just theory)
-I know a lot about PPC(just theory)
-My english is good but not enough so I am even willing to pay someone to write posts for me,or just to gramatically correct them.
-I almost forgot,I have 2-3 hours a day of free time ATM.Till New year.
-From 01.01.2011 to 01.06.2011 i will have 6-7 hours a day to work on the Internet.

The problem is that I never actually took ACTION and made a move,I said to myself that I just can't make money online without investing a dime.That is partialy true.

Over the past few months,8-9 actually,I was without a job and money of course and had time to research a lot,I was reading,reading and reading,popular blogs,websites,forums...,now I have a day job,I saved some money and I want to work full time on the internet in the future.

I will be working on my day job another 3-4 months,.My boss said that they will need me till New year and I will be without a job till the beginning of the season which is 1st July 2011.

Ass you see I will have half a year of free time,I have money now to invest and I want to never get back to my day job again,I really want to try to make a full time income from the internet.

One more thing,20$-30$ of profit a day after 4 months from now would be great for the beginning.I'll easily scale it up later.50$ a day would be just fantastic.

Just keep in mind that an average salary in my country is 550$,I now have 900$ because I work all night,from midnight to 6-7-8 o'clock in the morning.I live with my parents so I don't have any extra expenses,just the ones for my luxury and 100$ that they get from me every month.

Every piece of advice appreciated.

    figure out what you want to do as an internet marketer and invest in tools to get that done.
    for instance you can make money with adsense, through blogging, affiliate marketing, driving ppc traffic to cpa (or other affiliate offers) offers, product creation etc.

    in my case i tried alot of things. now i've settled on product creation, so if a wso or product isn't related to product creation or driving traffic to my sites i pay it no mind. now that i've focused i've got 1 product 100% done, and another 2 in the pipeline.

    first decide that, then look for the tools to assist and automate your business. until then i'd say join the war room. there are tons of business models in there and loads of good actionable information.

    $20-$30 day can be got quite easily from adsense and EPN sites. Learn keyword research then spend your money on some SEO software, domain, hosting and content.

    Find a good niche and a list of 100 keywords. Hire someone to write as many of the articles as you can, then create a wordpress site with a landing page. Post one article each day, then post it to EzineArticles and GoArticles, then lastly resubmit it ArticleBot ($25 for the program). Wehn you have time, convert your articles to video with camstudio and submit to video sites.

    At the end of the first month, you should have enough income to outsource the rest of the keywords and keep growing.

    There are many options that are available, You can put your money in some passive income sites . If you need articles written you may want to think about Virtual assistance programs. or you can just check out the war room for some really sweet deals and free stuff.

    I would invest in passive. No mess everything done for you and very good quick ROI PM.
    It can all be done VA as well. But I don't have any idea what the ROI would amount to. You would probly have to hire them long term to handle advertising / marketing etc. Not sure.

      If you have the skills you, why not offer your services ehere and build up some capital?

      Yes, you are trading time for dollars, but you can make some extra money to begin with, until you develop your own product... which ultimately will make you more money.

    Hmm?? $1,500. I would set up 2 auctions on ebay and sell a few netbooks since they are hot right now and guarantee a profit.

    = +$320

    Then setup a 1 page MRR site selling whatever is hot on CB for $33.00, setup a new Google Adwords account get the free $75.00 credit and drop another $50 in the reserve and let the good times roll baby!!!

    Would it be helpful to try and identify a program that
    a) has a low monthly ongoing fee (order $10 - $40 p/m)
    b) has a money back guarantee no questions asked (latest month I guess)
    c) promises to support you in making a certain amount of money
    d) is in an area that interests you and fits your skills (eg affiliate marketing, cpa marketing - areas where perfect English is provided and you are not expected to create loads of it)

    From reading your post I would say your greatest challenge is 'never actually took ACTION'
    Whatever you do next needs to deal with that directly.

    Just my 2 cents worth

    Interesting angle!

    I was thinking: "grow squash and start a garden," but whatever 8-)

    ...

    As long as you know the basics of "how" to convert traffic...

    Pick a niche, and I'd recommend you follow Article Prince's advise.

    It's a cheap, no-brainer way to get started and he knows his stuff.

    ...

    Another thing that might be cool for you...

    Build a landing page (like he said) and invest in solo ads ("cheap").

    Look up Charlie Page, or search the forum. Good way to test quickly IMO.

    No offense, but I un-recommend this.

    Don't blow your money on graphics and sales copy, until you have cash flow.

    There's too much room for error and a lot of people make this mistake, sadly.

    Here's your coaching program:

    Offer. Traffic. Rinse. Repeat.

    Let's go! Get an offer. Send traffic. Test. Money! Go, go, go!
