Easier said than done. There's not a single business in the world that is cut and dry. There's always a process. Now, the best thing going for IM newbies is that there's mucho proof one can make it. People from all walks of life are making it. But keep in mind that one needs to invest a lot of time to implement all the tips and tricks.

Unless you have money to outsource everything. And even then, there's still a process. It not easy to find the right fit and match when it comes to outsourcing. Too many people are looking for an elevator to success. There's no such think. Take the stairs one step at a time.

Internet Marketing is a business. Study everyone then decide which way you want to go. Create a simple business plan. Set goals and stay focus. You are not a super man or woman. Focus is the key.

Please don't misunderstand me. YOU will make it in the IM business. But you need to stay with it! Nothing works the first time. Got it!

Great thread. It took me 2 years to start and see good income from the internet.

Reading ebook, guides, videos in most case will just take you of the course.

You need to be persistence, and continue doing it.

Learn from you mistakes and improves you working flow in order to save time.

I couldn't agree with you more!
An online business is just that a business...If you think you can just start ANY business, and make instant money, well it very rarely happens. Take the business approach and see where you might be in a year from now if you just stick it out. You must however be in the right business, and your product worth buying! If your spending a lot of money in your online business...STOP!!
That's one thing you're doing wrong...Find the programs that are inexpensive to join, and proven! Most of the marketing I do is Free...Why would you pay, when there are so many free tools around.

Check out my video i just put out...it's one form of free marketing and it works!

Most ppl fail not at the very end, but at the very start. You need the mindset to carry through. It's like a video game. You have to keep trying to beat every stage/boss to finish the game.

Post Re: Why 95% of people fail online!

Agree. Persistency is one of the key points. But what about the tools and strategies that you mentioned? While everybody around me tell me to stop doing this, I tell myself to keep on doing and don't give up. I know what I miss are the strategies and tools.

But, WHERE CAN I FIND THEM?

There are too many tools and "systems" in the cyber worlds. Which one actually works? Who is lying and who isn't? Nobody can tell you until you try it out. I join the Warrior Forum because it seems very resourceful; therefore, no matter what the end results are, I guess I gain / learn something from here. However, ultimately, who can tell me what's really working if I really want a online "job"? An online job which has flexible time schedule, not going to worry about traffic and gas price, and more time to clean up the house...

If someone knows which tools / strategies really works, be honest, and show it to everybody?!

At the risk of repetition (because I posted this a few moments ago to a previous psot, just above....)

1. Stick with this Forum
2. DON'T fall for every "Buy This and Make $$$$$s" offer
3. Get proficient to the point of relaxed with the basic plumbing - offer > Squeeze page > upsell >Autoreponder and so on
4. Walk humbly
5. Gravitate to a niche(s) that you're enthused about. Enjoy becoming an expert!
6. Generate your own product.
7. Really add value to the customer - forget the $$ - they'll come.
8. Act justly.
9. Become an article king.
10. Show up again and again and never, on ANY account, think of giving up!

Well, what I learn from The Ultimate Secret book is the lack of willingness to to anything you want to achieve your goal. If you don't have the strength to hold your position, you will crack down and fail... The secret is WILLINGNESS.... Are you dare to take the extra mile?

completely agree! while most of the ppl around me are telling me to stop wasting time on the web, I keep doing what I am doing. First, I am having a hard time to find a stable job; so what not try something new, I may earn some money. Even if not, I learn something new during the process. Second, back to the topic, why people are failing online? there are just too much information on the internet. who knows which method is actually working. Is there a person can honestly tell ppl what system is actually working in the vitual world? I guess not. So, we, the non-guru, have to keep on trying, until we get it right...

This post came just in the nick of time so I have to thank you not once but twice for it. Can you offer any advice on the overwhelm factor when one has so mich information that it's hard to decide exactly which is the next step to take.

If I could give one piece of advice to any newbie, it would be Get Training From A Reliable Source!

That is what I did! good training is never free, but always worth it.

Thanks a bunch, Millionways. I am a Newbies. It's so hard to get a coach online and teach you how to do business online. I believe I spent too much money on many stuff and eventually you will find some of them are not suitable for your site... If you can coach me, please PM me.

Hello Ytmarketing, thanks for starting this awesome Topic

Many struggling in network marketing industry, using ineffective techniques that just plain DON'T WORK...

Some of the Internet Marketers fail to profit massively online because they have this old school sales mentality.

Many people were taught to go out and sale others our products, rather than using Attraction Marketing without prospecting, cold-calling, buying leads, chasing family & friends.

To be successful online, we have to first build relationship, help others to solve their problem, by default (Law of Reciprocity), all wealth and abundance will just attract to us effortlessly without we ask for it

Friends, thanks for sharing your precious knowledge and experience here. I learn a lot from this Forum. This Forum is just a wonderful Forum, full of like-minded people wth great outlook of life.
I am so blessed to connect with many positive, successful people here, thanks!

Enjoy your day, have an awesome one!

To Your Success,
Grace Jee

And for most people that's their greatest problem. If you're looking for the quick buck and trying to cheat life and your custoemrs by exploiting the desperateness and stupidity of others... you'll end up with some hype scam. In this case it is likely that you were the desperate and stupid one and their are too few others in order to get rich fast.

Do you really want to know why 95% of people fail online?

People fail online because of inconsistancy, lack of motivation, and selfishness. Now none of these are extremely detrimental, but need to be corrected in order to succeed.

Many internet marketers are so fresh due to the current economic situation. New marketers are jumping in by the minute in search of a new career.

Internet Marketers are also looking for the so called "golden ticket" to financial freedom. They want it and they want it yesterday. Nothing is going to happen overnight and you have to be persistent to gain any kind of financial stability on the internet. If you are new, stick it out. Don't work really hard for the first week and then dog off, you won't make it.

Many fail due to lack of motivation. Find something that makes you happy no matter what and use that as a focal point to your goals. Your kids, a new car, money, what ever it is, it can pull you into a more motivated state of mind. Tell yourself that what you are doing is worth it and stick with it. If it was worth getting into in the first place, stick with it long enough to see what can happen.

It is very rare to find an internet marketer out there that cares about people. How many times have you sent someone a product or service you are working on and all you get to be is a target of reverse marketing? This is all wrong. People, leads, prospects, what ever you want to call them, are the key to any successful business.

What makes a successful business from an unsuccessful one?
The customer should always be taken into consideration. Get a feel for who they are. Focus on what they want. Help them achieve their goals and you will stand out. You want to make them feel that you are not trying to sell, but listen and help.

Motivation, Consistency lacking the most & T?ime. If you decide that you don't want to learn anything from internet marketing, you can simply set up an autoresponder , continue to collect email addresses, when you have built up a few list, simply send them affiliate offers. I dont think its knowledge, too much knowledge actually causes a person to have information overload which leads to overwhelm, which leads to inaction.

I am not saying dont buy courses, actually you do not have to buy anybody's course not even mine to profit from the Internet. If you are a reader of this forum, you should know enough to simply start building a list & communicating with them

For those who don't know him, Willie Crawford is a well respected guru. In one of his recent articles he puts into context the often-quoted statistic that 95% of all Internet businesses fail. He points out that in reality the vast majority of businesses in the offline world fail too, so the picture is not bleaker online.

In-fact, Willie makes the point that it is better online since most aspiring Internet marketers could never even find sufficient capital to start a business in the offline world.

In the same article he discusses 4 reasons why most internet marketers fail miserably. These reasons are as follows:
1) Selling The Wrong Products,
2) Trying To Do Everything Yourself,
3) Very Poor Time Management, and
4) Too Many Projects That Are Never Completed.

You are right, a lot of people think that when they join a program to make money online they should see the money right away, but that doesn't always happen. Stay focused and don't give up. There are a lot of scams out there so research is key as well!

One of the causes of such a high failure rate is that too many people are drinking the kool aid. There are so many Gurus and Sponsors out there who lead people to believe that it is soooo easy to make a fortune online. "Just plug in to our system and make $$$$ overnight" It sets people up to fail.

As successful internet marketers we need to let people know that its NOT easy but it can be done with the right mindset and taking consistent action. It is possible to change their lifestyle if they have the right motivation and keep a positive can do attitude no matter how tough it gets.

If people know what to expect right from the start they will be less likely to quit when they don't see immediate results. No one wants to feel like a failure and that is what is happening because they think they should see results right away and they don't so the inner critic sets in and says "you can't do this" and they fail.

Stop drinking the kool aid and know that it isn't easy to find success online but it can and will be done if you have the right mindset, training and action!!! Who knew it would take "work" to make multiple six figures??? : )

I would say the two main reasons why people fail online is consistency and persistence. You have to work at it every day, even when you don't see the light at the end on the tunnel.

Jim Rohn said it best in this quote. "Learn how to work harder on yourself than you do your job, for if you work hard on your job you can make a living, but if you work hard on yourself you can make a fortune" The same applies to the failure rate in the home based opportunity industry. People don't take the time to learn the basics of marketing and don't apply themselves by taking massive action.
My advice for any newbie is to find a mentor, not just any mentor, but someone who not only talks the talk, but also walks the walk and then follow their exact methods.

This way you could save yourself a lot of money in time, effort and expensive through trial and error.

Why reinvent the wheel, simply learn from someone who is succeeding online and do as they do....

Capice??

Most people give up just when they're about to achieve
success. They quit on the one yard line. They give up at the last
minute of the game, one foot from a winning touchdown.
I've found success whenever I thought of quitting.This gives me a lot of encouragement so I keep on going because I know one day it will pay off.

Does one year long enough? I really not sure if I find the "light" of marketing online yet?! Could you give me some ideas?! Lately, I attend quite many online webinars; afterward, I believe those Guru do exchange their mailing list, I found a lot of free products offer. The descriptions "sound" very useful... but who knows which one really works. I gotta stop spending money on every products; therefore, I can only take the free product offers. Unless the description is very convincing, I may pay 10s or 20s dollars to give it a try.

Anyway, my point is, at certain period of time, I really think I spend enough time in this project - Internet Marketing; on the other hand, I think I am going to success. Should I quit or should I keep going? Any suggestion?

The top three reasons to fail in internet business are almost the same as these in the "real world" business:

1. Lack of planning.
2. Lack of action.
3. Lack of persistence.

I think this summarizes everything important.

Find someone or something that will legitimately teach you how to make money online.
Make a schedule of when your going to work online.
Make goals of what you want to achieve.
Stick with it!
After a few months you will start to see money come in. 95% of people fail online because they quit way to soon. TRUST ME it takes time to plant your crops and see them grow. It is well worth it at the end when your enjoying your bounty. (cash baby!)


Cheers to your success!
Thanks so much for such a supportive message. I just sign up for an 1-on-1 coach. After a year of self operation, I find it's time to find a coach. The money investment for the program is considered large for me, as I do not have a job at the moment (know how hard it is to find a job right now.) I have to find a way to make some income! I mean I never thought about quitting; unless I find a stable job which totally overwhelmed my NRG. Although everybody, meaning family and friends, do not agree what I believe in IM, I keep on working on it. I am praying for the best, and working hard for the best! In the mean time, looking for excellent opinions from experienced marketers who are willing to share their thoughts in the forum!!!

Good luck to every one.

I think it comes down to lack of belief, without belief, there is to much doubt, which makes lose focus, not persist, and think that they are doing something wrong (or the blame the ebook they just bought

I've been cheated, bamboozled but only twice, the remainder was buying programs that had ceased to work....you know the latest technique that had all the life blood sucked out of it when the Guru's started pushing it.

I now have someone who I consider a mentor, and although I found difficulty processing all the information, and even more difficulty taking action on it I finally forced myself to take action and now it's moving right along. Hopefully in a couple of weeks I'll be done and ready for the unveiling.

I agree 100%
Only after I put a stop on trying "the last thing" and focus on one site I started to make good money

Love what you guys have got to say about the formula for success, nice one!

I think most things have been covered and I agree...Focus, consistency, persistence, knowledge, will, congruence etc etc etc, however I do place considerable value on attitude. It radiates and brings favor to your door. When leveraged it can effortlessly influence behavior and attract benefits to you, long and short term.

As a person and entrepreneur I have worn both a wrong and a nice, humble attitude and I know which has yielded the best results for me.

A humble and caring attitude towards others is what I have witnessed on this thread and I'm loving it!
