Making money online doesn't take luck. In fact you don't even have to be the smartest guy in the world. All you really need is knowledge and the will to succeed. 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! |

Persistence is key, but it's worth mentioning that everything you need to get it going is for free on the WF. Take a look around and try not to get caught up in a buying frenzy.

That's the truth. I have been cheated a few times by some "big names" in this biz. And I mean really cheated (not disappointed or I didn't do the work... cheated). To the point where I almost needed to call on the State AG's office. ![]() However, I have found some teachers who are awesome and willing to show me the way. Find a good and honest teacher. (And be sure to pay with a credit card!) | |

Consistency and persistence are the keys to any online business. Nothing good happens overnight unless you are extremely lucky. Do you research, plan it out, and don't be discouraged if you don't get the results you expected.

Very true words guys. Sometimes the hurdles are steep though. I have motivation, commitment, goals and strategies, I'm just struggling with knowledge! It's the cog in my money making machine that is slipping. Not going to give up just yet! |

I think the "Guru-Go-Round" can get anybody dizzy who is trying to learn Internet Marketing. I won't say it causes failure but it certainly stalls and defers success sometimes. I mean some smooth guy with a bazillion affiiates and a professionally written Hypnotic Sales page that takes 10 mins to read it all. Then that same Super Guru Hero will not only do what any respecting Guru would do...hit you with a One Time Offer that only distracts you from completing the course you just bought but guess what? The next day he/she will be sending you an email with "The Best Product of all time" that his "friend" created. Going around in those circles over and over can actually stop someone from experiencing real success. |

Hello Omari Taylor here, Great post. You are absolutely right. If you press on for a few month and stay consistent you will see result and reach you goals. An I know because I'm speaking from experience. I got lucky and meet the right people earily in my online career who actually taught me things for free free. Actually I started marketing when I signed up for this forum and I had my breakout month in November and haven't looked back since. Courses are great and help a lot but, to go to that next level you really need a mentor showing you step by step. I totally agree with this great post and I wish everyone the best. |

Before someone tells you to go read all the great posts within the forum...and they will because there is a wealth of info here.First of all, remember not to just chase numbers. If you start chasing numbers and the promise of "making $100,000 per day", that's where you get caught in the trap. You will be going in circles for years chasing numbers. Figure out what your strengths are and what your weaknesses are first. Think about what you would be comfortable doing and not doing. Lot's of Physical typing involved? Lots's of analyzing involved? Big learning curve? Alot of times other marketers just tell you to "go long" for a touchdown, and they dont mention the huge defensive line that comes in the form of domains, hosting, copy writing, PPC, video creation, social websites, listbuilding, outsourcing and such. Here is a model you can think about while you try on different marketing shoes to see what fits right. What if you contacted 30 established marketers and asked them if they could do it all over again what would they do differently to get the success they have all over again? Now some will totally ignore you, some will tell you to go pound sand, and some will give you some of the greatest advice you never paid for! Let's just say you get 6 good responses out of 30. You now have a product. It could be in print from the emails you got, or you can have audio. And once you offer these marketers a % of profits, they will even help you market it with already established email lists. OK, this is just an example of how to think creatively online. Good luck. | |

i see its hard for people to focus on something that they know nothing about. But most people get upset when they launch and nothing happens. But the main thing i have experience is an overload of crap info. I have met a few warriors that have pointed me in the right direction and for those people thank you... I cant wait until i reach my own goals then i could be the go-to guru and help my fellow warriors out..

Hi Debra When you do this on your own, It is hard. I found you can not be good at everything! I'm sales. The techie stuff that is vital. I outsourced to a friend. College kids are best. So my advice is. Don't try and do it all. Do the bits your good at. Outsource the bits you don't. That can stop the cogs slipping. Stops your brain overloading aswell. |

"Foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds" Consistently jumping from one idea/technique/trick/guru/system/etc. to another is FOOLISH. Spend enough time on WF to get a feel for what resonates with you. Then do it over and over again until you have it mastered. Then, try again with another concept... eventually, you will have mastered several major styles and you will be successful. If you look around, there are tons of FREE step by step guides on WF, so there is no excuse. Just persist. Finding a good teacher/trainer CAN shorten the learning curve, so be on the lookout for one that "feels" right for you. But, follow their advice until you have mastered their system. Ron |

So many helpful posts. It definitely is a mix of persistence, focus, and (for me) switching from the mind set of an opportunity seeker to a business owner. Multi-tasking is over-rated. Focus on one thing and get it done. LOA, metaphysics, meditation all that stuff is great. If you don't take action, it doesn't mean squat. If you really want this, don't give up. You might fail a bunch along the way(be willing to screw up daily!) But it can and will come together if you are committed. Cara |

Anytime I've failed to get results consistently I wasn't focusing enough. When I try for a home run it rarely comes small steps each and every day bring much better results. It's hard to resist jumping from one thing to another but man it pays off when you stay on track day after day. great topic thanks! |

Here's what one of my mentor's calls the "formula to success": Success = Skills x Action If you go back to algebra... If skills stays constant, Success goes up at the same rate as Action goes up. (and holds true with less action = less success) If Action stays constant, Success goes up at the same rate as Skills go up. So...these 3 rules will allow you to achieve ANY goal in life: 1) Always increase your skill level. (Take courses, go to seminars, etc.) 2) Always take massive action. (INCOME producing activities like posting content or split testing adwords/sales pages) 3) NEVER, NEVER stop until you reach your goal...while all along the way doing steps 1 & 2. |

I have a choice to make today to get into a continuity program (pays me every month with alot of promoting involved) Or a High Ticket item niche (with very little promoting) Maybe this is a win win. I think I will do the high ticket item then focus on monthly membership right after that. Failure no option. |

There are thousands of diversions on the internet. I my self have started many times on one project and at the mid I find a more attractive one and temprarily discontinue first one. And this process goes one... That's why I couldn't make money online and I am sure majority of us face same problem. So Persistant efforts is the key factor to sucess. You must have will to face diversions with smily face. |

I agree. Many people stop because their why may not big enough. We must keep the dream out front,the vision of what the heart desires! We have a need for instant gratification in this materialistic culture. Give it time. Give of yourself. Network marketing is about giving first.Its about Relationships! The receiving will come in its own time.You'll see. Keep the primary goal out front. And put the energy out. You are more than your fear. Golden Blessings in all that you do. |

Focus on the customer. Imagine being on the other side of the equation and think about what you would need and/or want (as a potential customer). Keep that in mind when you put together your offers and build your business. Mike |

Focus is everything ! But you need to have a clearly defined goal and a step by step plan to get there. then focus on it 120% It helps if you monetise every step you need to take to get to the result It helps if you write a step by step list of what is to be done to get to the target It helps if you tick off each of the steps as you go so you can see your progress Take something a small task that is ordinary - Do it better than the next man It helps if you can duplicate the thing. FOCUS and a Plan is the key ingeriant to success here |

I think that most people fail because they don't stay in game long enough, u need to be really driven to break through all this hype and find your own thing to do online. There are too many opporutnities it's confusing for new people and generally most people don't do anything...

A good majority of people fail online because they are forever chasing the "Secrets" instead of accepting "The Truth" that there are no secrets. I know because I coach people (Not going to plug my services here) and that is the single most common problem I see from people of all ages, race, income levels and backgrounds. The challenge I have given people this year is simple... "Focus on achieving just 1 thing a week and we'll take it on from there" |

My best successes have been when I hired a coach who worked with me one on one both by phone and by email. Sometimes you need to get a question answered and an email 24 hours later is just too slow. This is how I learned to use both Dream Weaver and Photo Shop and now I am learning how CPA offers work. I think that a good coach is worth every penny. Your learning curve is shortened most times by years. Denise Lorraine |

Another big reason for failure is really all about you. If you don't take action, you are guaranteed to fail. It's time to quit buying what one marketer calls "bright shiny objects" and start doing something with at least one of the money making programs you've purchased...seeing it through from start to finish.
