What to do if you're broke...

It's difficult to give a lot of help without knowing more about you and what you can and like to do.

What are your skills? Can you write? If you can write you can create a free blog and offer those services - you could also create PLR packages and offer those from a free blog. Your signature here could include a mention of your offers.

If you are broke, sell those things in your house that are occupying space.

Definitely find a job first...
Internet marketing is not for quick bucks...

You need to have your necessities well taken care of, before you can focus on your IM.

You have go to hustle! Get a temporary job, at least. Get some stable income. Then, look to IM. If you don't have a lot of bills to pay, try offering services online. Article writing, social bookmarking, etc. stuff people don't want to have to do all the time. Give yourself 2 weeks to a month to make some money. If you're not getting enough, go apply at Walmart or something and continue online work part-time. Once it's stable, then quit your job, and only then.

I understand it can be very hard to get even a low-paying job these days, so if that doesn't pan out, just hustle, hustle and hustle to get some gigs online. Once you have done a lot of freelance work and have a budget, then I say branch out a bit and try setting up your own online business.

This game isn't easy, and if you're broke, go for guaranteed money as in offering services or getting a temporary job...

That's what I would do.

Hello,
why do you think that you have to spend money to make money, there are a ton of free resources all over the internet that can get you started, look at my sig and you will find many great free ebooks.

Lou Diamond is exactly right...

there are hundreds of free programs, tools and even software available for FREE... check out my signature as well and take advantage of all the ClickBank Giveaways available... learn as much as you possibly can for FREE!

Yep, this is something I did myself when I was little low on cash. If you're not confident enough to offer services to warriors or want to avoid the $20 fee there are some forums out there where you can offer services without having to pay. You'll have to start off cheap, but its a lot better than nothing + you can scale up when you get experience. The feedback you get from customers will indicate how well you are doing.

If you're broke, this is probably the quickest way to make some cash - you can literally get a client within hours.

I know how you feel! I'm broke too!

At first I sold my stuff like what King Shiloh suggested while waiting for a job. Now I already got a job which I will start first of Nov. And from the money there I'll subscribe to Warrior Forum hehehehehe

Then I can work on my blog after work. If you've read The Alchemist, I think this job is like working with the crystal merchant

Ok I am there as well. I do work right at this time. But Since I live in Las Vegas I have access to gifts that I get from the casinos here. So I just go onto an auction site and sell them. Brings in some extra cash.

So if you have things that you no longer use or dont need go to an auction site and sell them. Also if you know enough about creating a product for online use you could also do that.

Sorry to bust any bubbles here but nothing free is gonna earn you a full time income overnight. (Go on, prove me wrong someone. Please.)

First thing to do is get your overheads covered in some way. If you can do that by offering your services here in the WF in some way then great. Otherwise, get a job.

Everything else you require after that can be found in the voluminous WF.

Just telling someone to "get a job" sounds great, but it's not always possible.

However, I'm not saying that people should just sit around and wait for gold to fall out of the sky. And that's apparently what a lot of people do.

I've been in this situation.

At a time when I was struggling from week to week and I thought I was about to lose everything, I came across a great book called "The One Minute Millionaire."

I read it faster than any book I had previously read. Not quite in a minute, but once I got into it, I realized that I already had everything I needed to be successful.

I simply needed to harness the power of it, leverage my assets, connections, and get busy with daily activities towards my goals. Within a few weeks we had gone from broke to making more money than I have ever seen in my life.

In fact, I was making $20k a week.

Now you're probably expecting a link to some sales page. Nope.. this isn't an affiliate offer or something like that. This really happened to me.

So my recommendation is to simply do what I did. You may or may not want to read the book... but what I did that made a real difference was I realized that I have EXISTING value, even if I'm not employed. So what are those valuable assets?

Relationships, Knowledge, Influence, Skill, Talent... What do you have to offer?

You probably know how to set up a facebook fan page, twitter page and youtube page for a business. Bam.. you can go out and make $500 to $1000 in consulting. Sometimes much more.

Who do you know? Do they know people that need what you can do?

How can you leverage other people's time, other people's money, and other people's talent to help you achieve your goals?

I know that sounds "evil" but it's not... leveraging means just that... you couldn't lift a car by yourself.. but if you "leverage" a rope, a beam, and your weight, you can probably suddenly lift it!

So... leveraging other people's time means just that. Who can mentor you? Who can help you get started? Who can tell others about what you do? You're leveraging me right now because I'm taking my time to write this post.

Leverage other people's money? Yes... you'll find that often you can run a classified in the local business for 30 days before they send you a bill. That's what I did! How many other ways can you leverage other people's money?

Leverage other people's talent? You might STINK at sales... but in this example, you can set up facebook business pages like nobody else. So place some classifieds, craigslist ads, etc... and offer 35% to 50% commission for sales people to close deals for you. Get people who are talented in their area to focus on their talents so that you can focus on yours... working together can be massive.

Go to networking meetings... you know.. tweetups, chamber luncheons etc... those people are almost all salespeople..and guess what MOST PEOPLE HATE THEIR JOBS... so just offer them a "side income" and maybe it some day they'll make that their full time job. I've seen it happen!

Anyway... stay motivated... don't worry about the failures and rejections that WILL try to block you .. and get moving.. ACTIVITY creates ACTIVITY... just be sure to leverage it!

I'd say find a job and save up a bit of money, because im does require to have some capital, and a bit of fall back money

Hi

cheers

Get a job IM is not a quick fix sometimes I work months without making money on products but when they are complete with a proven system I know the money is going to come in.

Just like any business you need to invest some money and if you have none its going to be hard to get up and running.

setup a webcam and do some private shows.

thats what i usually do when i need some cash fast.

Many (Internet Marketers) especially the beginners, who are enthusiastic and keen to learn the art of 'making money online' - the quality which is good - but they tend to "BUY" almost everything that's been thrown at 'em.

If you do that blindly or fall in the trap of "Gurus" than you'll most definitely find yourself in the situation you're in.

BUT Here's The Solution...

--->>> FOCUS on learning the IM Techniques which are 100% Totally FREE, in the beginning, after that:

--->>> CONCENTRATE on buying the tools / techniques / software that are not more than $1, and build your foundation...

--->>> BUILD ON THE FOUNDATION Learn Earn...

hey get a temporary job you can lay your hands on.I have one on a part time here in Nigeria for three days a week .Other days i use for my business start although i have not started making any bucks anyway.look around your house you have what you give in exchange for small money that can get you going again.
hope this helps

Look on Fiverr.... Post some gigs, post some more gigs, and then post some more gigs.... I find Fiverr surprising.

Last $5 gig I got from there has turned into 3K and counting.... Once you are making money invest in your education, follow one thing and stay focused.

Track any WSO's/products you buy. Make sure that you get a return on the investment or refund it. Don't buy anything new until you have taken everything you can from the last thing you bought....

It is the biggest mistake 95% of us make I expect, running from one thing to another and it is extremely unlikely to ever happen like that.

If you're truly broke, there still are ways to make some money, so long as you still have enough money to live on, pay the rent and so on. If you don't, then you probably don't have enough time to actually begin generating online income before they unplug your internet connection.

Supposing that you can at least afford to live and eat, and have some spare time to invest, you need not spend any money to get started, at least. One of the biggest problems online marketing has is the "shiny object syndrome" where people are always looking for the next object that takes their attention, and spend all of their capital (money) on the promises of being rich overnight or on autopilot that they never actually implement anything. I'm so frustrated with the current advertising practices of promising the sun and moon and delivering dirt that I almost can't stand it. In fact, I created an honest marketing product that tells the absolute truth about how to make money online, and the time it really will take. Given that you are broke, I won't mention the product here, but provide a tip for getting yourself out of your current problem.

Go to Squidoo, create an account there, and create a lens (blog) on a topic that you are interested in. With Squidoo, they place ads around your content (Adsense or other Cost Per Click (CPC) advertisements.) In return for your blog content, Squidoo gets paid from the ads that get clicked (they keep 5% to begin with) and you can choose to either give your portion to charity or have it paid out to you. I'm not sure of the percentage you get, but wouldn't be surprised if it were 50% of the Adsense revenues. Given you don't pay anything for the opporotunity to use their site and authority, and can get your keywords into reasonable page ranking on the search engines, you have the possibility of generating some money through this avenue.

Keep up your blog posts so you get noticed, and the visitors will click on the ads around your content. This way, you will begin to generate an income stream. Once you get any significant income, you can then decide whether you want to invest in your own domain name, web site, blogging engine, autoresponder and newsletter message sequence. Meanwhile, you can stop throwing money into a hole on the "get rich quick" schemes you may have been victim to in the past. Will this make you a millionaire? Nope, but it is a method of getting from where you are towards where you want to be. It will take time, it will take effort, but in the end, it can generate income without any monetary investment on your part.
