    Coupled with a college education, the information I have gathered from the Warrior Forum allowed me to quit my brick and mortar job. So yes, it is possible. It depends greatly on the person and the amount of work they put in though.

    Just showing up here every day and looking at threads isn't going to get you to where you want to be.

    It definitely played a part in my Internet Marketing education. They key thing is, you have to put the information you learn into practice. You need to have extreme focus, persistence and perseverance.
    If you are just starting out, try to focus on one thing at a time.

      nice first job to have IMHunter.

      I am currently still working my day job but i am hoping to quit
      by this time next year at the latest.

      It's true what previous comments show. You have access to the
      best possible information through WF in order for you to learn and
      quit your day jobs, but you will have to put time and effort in for sure

    I didn't "quit my day job" because I didn't have a "day job".

    I had retired from all the offline businesses I had years ago but wanted to do something new that didn't require a building, employees, etc.

    However, if you go back and find one of my early posts, you will see that although I knew business and even did some things online, I really didn't know internet marketing as its own business before and had hired every other website I ever had for my other businesses made for me by others.

    I had even spent around $3000 before I really got into this forum.

    I learned much more on this forum for free than most of the stuff I bought and then I found two relatively inexpensive courses that teach basically everything.

    So, I would say that the Warror Forum helped me to finally actually make money online which I'm sure would be enough for what most people would consider an adequate income.

    I would love to quit by day job and do IM full time. Just have to start making some serious money first !!

    I was watching a Webinair by Wilson Mattos the other day where he talked about being addicted to Internet Marketing. I suddenly thought - wow that is me - I am addicted. I have never been addicted to anything before. I think it is because making money is always so close. I am determined not to give up though despite the fact that it is hard doing this with a day joy...
    I am determined to quit by November though...So better get back to it !!

    I've been self employed since the 90's so I don't have to give anything up, I've just changed what I'm doing. In a way I sort of merged my careers a bit.

    I'm an NLP Trainer, Strategist and Coach. I began looking into IM to learn about improving my website and taking control of the rankings. It's sort of addictive

    I went from not having a single clue about anything techy to now having a business model that is combining all my skills and doing what I love every day.

    I was working on a Goals Coaching digital product to add to CB but then got sidetracked being asked to help out people I know with their SEO. Word got around and I ended up with small Offline business. I then got into outsourcing and wow, that was super stressful but again I've learned such a lot that I've now got a part finished coaching to help others avoid my mistakes. I've got CB sites, Amazon sites and advertising/adsense sites that are all beginning to make passive income so I plan to develop that area.

    Its a bit of a juggling act but all good fun. You can only get so far without support so that comes along as soon as you start making any money. Then you can really begin to expand.

    I think goals are essential and if you want to leave your full time job, then having a goal that relates to earning the level of income you are used to, then that is worth working towards. Initially though, whilst you've got the income, I'd reinvest any profits back into your IM business to ensure you've got the right tools to make life easier and then build an outsource team. Not all have to be on contract, you can build a team of people from Fivver who can do jobs ad hoc.

    First, learn it, do it, prove to yourself it works, then develop it.

    Good luck

    Well before I found the WF, I started making a living online.

    I started in late 95 but never actually made money until 99. I admit that looking back, I was not seriously invested in making money online, during the 90's.

    I made my first dollar in 99. My income had risen to the point where I could quit my job in 2000. I did, but in 2002, I lost a major source of revenue, and I had to take a job again.

    At the end of 2004, I realized that I had been earning more online than on my job for over 12 months. I quit my last job in March of 2005.

    I have had an account on the WF since 2004, but I had only posted 88 times by the summer of 2010 when I started participating here regularly.

    In my first 6 years on the Warrior Forum, I was probably only here about 14 days total.

    Some people might hope that my next 6 years are as active as my first 6 years here on the forum. LOL j/k

    I've looked into several courses and bought about four. I've gotten refunds on two. My difficulty is that at this time I don't have the money to invest in PPC or many other necessary expenses that go along with building an IM business. Buying ten to twenty domain names at once and hosting them costs way too much for me. My new part time job should help with that but now that I've got two jobs there is less time for me to spend on an IM business. Somewhere there is a happy medium that will allow me to get something started and maintain it.

      Most of those really making bank online do not start spending money on PPC until they have a proven sales funnel that converts.

      You should not be investing in PPC, unless you understand how much a customer is worth to you, and thus how much you can afford to spend to get that customer.

      I got started with one domain, which I worked until I bought my second domain in 04. Now, I have too many domains. :p

      I honestly believe that one should invest in a single domain, until which time they have started to see positive results. I also believe that folks should not be buying Exact Match Domains without a proven business plan.

      Start with a domain that can be brandable -- a domain that people could easily remember and use for anything. Examples of brandable domains include: Google, Yahoo, Bing, Mashable, Cnet, Yelp, etc.

      While it is not necessary to have a domain to make money online, having a domain helps you to centralize your efforts through a single platform that you own.

        PPC is EXACTLY how you should be testing funnels.

        In fact..I didn't even start "Making bank" until I did PPC.

        The trick with PPC is letting your campaigns run..turning a bad campaign into a profitable campaign with split tests is EXACTLY how you get a converting funnel.

        But...most don't have the mentality to let campaigns run/split test.

        So are you suggesting that people should throw away money without knowing how they are going to profit from the process?

        I was suggesting that you should know what your goals are and how to profit from the process before doing PPC.

        Unless you have a clear plan, and you know what you can afford to spend, the chances of making PPC work for you are slim.

        You of course had a clear plan when you started, I presume? And you didn't just throw money against the wall, without first putting together a system for you to profit from your advertising, right?

        Once you have a system in place that will produce the results you need, then paid traffic is the best way to grow.

        I know people who have lost their asses with PPC, and I know others who have done well with it.

        Paid traffic surely is the quickest road to profit, but it takes more than just money to make paid traffic profitable.

      It's possible to start an IM business from which you can be making a full-time living within a few months for about $50, without ever using PPC.

      If you have enough knowledge (which people starting off typically don't, of course), you can actually start one off for much less than that, but I'm not sure I'd recommend that to someone who had $50.

      Or, like me, you can start off with absolutely no idea what you're doing at all, spend $50 or so, make almost every mistake it's possible to make, earn nothing at all for 3 - 4 months and end up feeling you need to spend another $50 to "get it all right" (which worked out very well, for me - and may not be such a bad idea all around, really ... "she says with hindsight").

      Not only does it cost way too much for many people starting off, but buying ten to twenty domains probably stacks the odds firmly against you anyway, when you're starting out. Buying one or two is ideal.

    I wouldn't necessarily say, I quit my job by learning to make money on the warrior forum. The reason is because I was able to quit my job and work online full time before I actually even found this forum. However, I will say there is a ton of very useful information here and it has taken my Internet Marketing to a much higher level.

    I did not quit my day job, it quit me. I saw the writing on the wall about 6 months before the division closed and I found myself here.

    I would say the most valuable thing that I have gotten from the WF is the connections that I have made with like minded entrepreneurs. A mentor or 2 in this business will take you a long way,,that and hard work.

    As one should be able to attest from the two extremes of this post...

    - tpw's very pedantic and step-by-step have a plan approach...

    - drunkenmonkey's WTFever-is-clever just do it approach...

    ...and everything in between... that it depends on the individual and what that individual deems as most important.

    My personal journey was one similar to drunkenmonkey's IN THE BEGINNING and then incorporated tpw's approach. Yet, I began my trek back in '95 when things were A LOT different.

    I couldn't rightfully suggest my original methodology, today.

    Bottom line is... not everybody is an entrepreneur and as Dean Whitter has said...

    Success is awarded to those that have the fortitude to stay the course

      I also started in 95 without a plan or an idea about how to do what I wanted to do.

      I failed and failed and failed, until 99 when I started putting it all together in a way that made sense and made money.

      Like you, I would not recommend anyone to follow in my footsteps. Having some semblance of a plan is better that throwing crap against the wall and hoping something sticks.

        It doesn't surprise me because back then (do we feel old, yet LOL) the Internet was uncharted territory.

        Take the WF for example; it would NOT be what it is today IF it had started at any other time then when it did. There have been many that came behind it; (with the best of intentions); but the WF is still here and growing and the others are.... ??

        The decisions we make today are dictated by what we learned yesterday... those decision will NOT be the same tomorrow 'cause we're working with a whole new set of knowledge (and rules)...

        Same concept as we'll NEVER be able to master the Internet (Marketing) because the Internet (Marketing) is forever proliferating, growing and changing... just like medicine and law... we can only practice...

        peace...

    I am currently working in a stressful full-time job.
    But my plan is to quit it as soon as I earn the same with my online business. It will take some time, but eventually I will do that, I don't want to have a boss never again in my hole life.
    That energy of tiredness and stress taken from this full time job is giving me each day more power to invest in my business here, so I am confident I will succeed, no matter the time it would take.

    Most people quit their jobs once they have found establishment online. There are very few people who take the risk to quit before they are financially stable in their online business(es).

    Not many people ever reach the point where they could gladly quit their unsatisfactory job. Most remain in struggle and pain.

    The key is to never let yourself down based on short term failure. The longer you stick with something and add quality hours of work to improve your skills, the more likely success will happen.
