Don't Make It So Hard...

9 replies
When your new that may sound like a terrifying thing to understand. Your thinking, "but this stuff IS hard." I'm here to tell you.

No, no its not.

Read that again. It's not hard to make money online. Actually that's the easy part. The difficult part is finding the right audience to target your offers with. That, my friends comes with experience.

This is why many of us preach that you need to "take action," but furthermore many of us need to take action without worrying about the particulars.

If its good enough, its good enough, I always say. And there is a reason for that. When your new you just gotta slap some stuff together and see what works. You have to experiment. Try new things.

4 years ago I would've never thought I would be a successful search engine optimizer for an online retailer, or that I would be making my car payment with my personal affiliate sites.

Once I understood how to properly target a market it all clicked. I'm talking about basic marketing here. This isn't rocket science. Let me ask you something.

If you promote a product or service in front of someone who is searching for it, do you think you'll make a sale? If you answered NO to that question you need to grab as many Marketing 101 books that you can get your hands on.

Market to people's needs and wants... and you'll make sales. There is a reason why the largest marketing agencies in the world are concerned with demographics to the smallest detail--because they are in the business of marketing products/services that people want or need.

Use that same principle in your online business and I promise you... you WILL see success. There is just no way for you NOT to.

I hope you all had a good week of success. That's all for now.

      You're going to fail. If you're afraid of failure then you do not belong in the Internet Marketing Business. Period.

    The OP makes some good points. This entire business isn't hard, but some people will find certain aspects of it difficult.

    For example, you may be a great writer, but a bad graphic designer. That's me.

    I've been working harder on my graphic design skills, but truthfully, I just outsource whatever I need in that area. It saves me a ton of time and aggravation. Not to mention, it always comes out better.

    So, even if something is hard for you, don't let that stop you. You can always learn and practice or simply pass it off to somebody else. Don't expect to be great at everything.

    You are exactly right. The main thing is - find out what people really need or want and figure out a way to sell it to them in a unique way.

    This is, by far, the most important point you made in your entire post.

    I'm afraid that many people do not quite understand that concept.
