What it Really Takes to be Successful Online

7 replies
Do you know what it takes to be successful online? Very simple, treat internet marketing as a business and not some get rich quick scheme. If that turns you off, then internet marketing is not for you. Yea, I said it.

99% of people fail online because they don't treat it as a business and guess what? Businesses take time to build. I'm just tired of seeing everyone wasting there time looking for the next big thing, making a couple bucks here and there. Is that income going to be there 1 year from now, 5 years from now? If yes, then you are most likely on the right track.

Just something I learned, I elaborate more on this @ my blog.

    Yeah i think the problem most people have is thinking that internet marketing is a get rich quick scheme. It takes time and patience to be successful as an online businessman.

    Yes you must have to come up with a plan that in which position you want to see yourself after 2,3 or 5 years.IM is not a place of getting rich quickly.This is matter of learning,implementing and hard working.

    you're right, but because IM is something that can be trialled quickly and easily, and with the promise of such rewards, it inevitably attracts those impulsive types that don't really know what they're doing and have no follow through.

    unfortunately i am this type by nature, so am now putting my time into building a genuine resource instead of moving from niche to niche trying to find the next profitable thing.
