We have it so damn easy...

You always get some whining in here about this or that. Even I've done it a few times.

But I was just browsing around the WF and noticed a WSO by a solid member.

It made me realize just how easy we have it to make money.

We have the ability to:

- Get affiliates easy

It used to be difficult - and 100% "instant to paypal" payments was unheard of just a few years ago. Now we have RAP and RAPbank, WSO pro, 7DS, and tons of other options.

- Publish basically anything in a book format and sell it on Amazon.

Talk about credibility boosting - you slap up a squeeze page and show where the book is sold - bam - enjoy your major increase in opt-ins.

- The Warrior Forum

Don't need to say much about that.

- Affiliate programs, free ability to get traffic, easy ability to product high quality videos, cheap places to get outsourcing (fiverr and other places), automation tools like autoresponders, checkout software, affiliate management, blogging tools, keyword research tools, webinar automation...it's ridiculous!

- More education you can shake a stick at.

Despite the problems we have - paypal or FTC, Google slaps, and other struggles - problems and struggles have always plagued entrepreneurs. But one thing is for certain, it is so much easier now than it was. At least I think so.

Just wanted to post something positive, you know.

Rob

    I agree, everything is at our fingertips. The issue comes when there is too much knowledge and it causes lack of focus.

      Exactly. It took me months and months of frustration, dealing with information overload and a lot of money spent on courses, guides, etc before I was able to find the methods I now make a living from.

      That said, the opportunities to make money online are astounding, and I am thrilled to live in a day and age where I can spend the entire day with my girlfriend at the beach, come home and realize I've made more than a hundred bucks while I was away.

      The beauty of the modern world...

      You are right. The more I'm in this game the more wacky niches I see people making money off of that I would have never thought about. The Internet is a gold mine.

        Not to mention guys (and gals) like Rob The Warrior that over deliver on their products/services. Whether free or paid. :p

          I appreciate your kind words - but all I do is attempt to give back to the forum which has given me so much.

        And it's stable. Yes, there are some technical glitches, but not enough to even think twice about. I don't have to hand code HTML and take days to put a page together while I get the BSOD everytime I try to test the way my page looks in a browser.

        Nice post and some positivity is a most excellent thing.

    Man Rob, I was just thinking about this subject the other day in regards to Wordpress plugins and themes. I think back five years ago and we barely have any of the stuff we do right now.

    I'm really looking forward to seeing what people develop next. For all the bad stuff people say about IMers, there are some VERY creative people out there working hard giving us products/tools to make our job easier.

    You can get up and running faster now than ever before...

    We have it very EASY, for the reasons you've mentioned but also because for many of us there is no large over-reaching corporation making it harder to enter our niche. Whatever that niche may be, for most it there rarely seem to be more than small to medium sized companies.

    Could you imagine how HARD this stuff would be if every niche had a General Electric in it? lol

      Yeah, it's too easy, which makes it so that every Tom, Dick and Harry with
      a computer who doesn't know jack sh*t about running a business can come
      along and essentially f**k it up for everybody else.

      If you think I'm being melodramatic, take a look at all the platforms of
      promotion that we have that have more red tape and problems than the Kremlin.

      Glad I essentially got out (at least full time) when I did.

      I pity the poor newbie who has to put up with half the crap that one has to
      put up with just to make a few bucks.

        Definitely "melodramatic"!

        LOL

        Steven, you might go back to the eye doctor to get a new set of glasses...

        It seems these days that your vision is constantly clouded by the negative...

        A new set of glasses might do you wonders...
