How I made more than $12K in 5 weeks on my 1st try - revisited

Yea, I like that Alex Rich. One persons success really can be infectious.

It really is true that when you sit near success it rubs off on you. You can lose everything but if you have helping others as your main goal, you have a proven formula to get right back on top.

Wow that was very entertaining and inspiring post! I love reading about others success because it is like a proof to all of your effort.

I have recently open my own blog and I am working on some product that will be released sometime in February.

I do have a question.

What do you mean by Mickey Mousing the site?

I'm a little new to IM.

Thanks so much!

Hi Monique,

I should probably edit that statement out. I think it's a statement from my generation and maybe not to common any more. Anyway, it means to "work around the system" or figure out another way. My blog is on a WordPress hosted blog. When I started it, I was so broke that I couldn't afford to have it hosted. Also, I didn't know anything about the Internet and how things worked, so I would have been in the dark about hosting my own blog.

So the kind of WordPress blog I was using didn't allow eCommerce on the sites. So I used a process that had people clicking off the site to make the purchase. They still have to do that but it's all working out. I've been advised to not upset the system since I am ranked #1 on Google and have a great SEO presence.

I hope this answers your question!

Hi Zehron,

I do suggest that you invest your best upfront time on selecting some niches. My niche is amazing, but not because I knew what I was doing. Now that I do know more, I truly believe it is the most important first step. Learn how to select a niche, then go from there. You can have the best eBook in the world about a subject no one is interested in learning about. Or you could have a mediocre eBook about a subject that has a hungry crop of buyers.

I hope the best for you!

I just launched a website for a domain I was inspired to register a month ago, with just a hint of the idea I would develop. Yesterday, I was thinking about changing the focus back to an IM focus in a totally different area.

This morning I had second thoughts and was deciding to hold to my idea for focusing on helping others who have questions for which answers, good answers, are not easy to find. It was at this point I stumbled upon your forum thread. I now have the confirmation that I've made the right decision.

Thank you for a great post. It truly helps.

Warm Regards,
Alex

PS Keep moving in the direction you're headed. You've been called...

Thanks so much for this lovely post. I can tell, you are a good writer.

I hope the very best for you on your IM goals! Honesty, integrity and kindness pay high dividends! There are a lot of people who are hungry for quality information from people with good character!

Oh! Thank you so much for explaining that to me. That helps!

I'm very glad you posted this because your story has adjusted my plans, for the better, for my first project on my own. It can be a little overwhelming! At the moment, most of my marketing skills are offline. I'm new to the online thing. Blueprints are always nice!

Thank you again for the inspiration!
