How Did I Make $7.6 Million in revenue Using Shopify + Facebook Ads in the last 10 months.

70 replies
Hello all,

I am back with some inspiration for all of who are struggling to make money online or are unable to scale up the business.

To be honest, I can brag about how easy it is to do it. You will have a magic wand which you just move on the Shopify store & money will flow. Let's face it - there is nothing is called as a free lunch. We all need to work hard to achieve the results.

Here is the screenshot of my work which has started paying me back for my efforts.



Let me tell you exactly what & how I did to reach here.

I am sure you would have read my previous posts on how I started, so to avoid wasting your time, I will start straight to the point.

These are the 5 things which I did:

>> Mindset Shift:
Till last year, I was always looking for the done for you system or some techniques which can help me to quick money. In doing so, I had spend money on one system to another & outcome was that my situation had not changed. In fact, my financial losses were growing because of unplanned spends. I am sure most of us would have gone this journey or going through it at the moment. Let me the truth, if you want to be successful then do not follow the system rather create the you system.

Do not copy what successful people do rather copy how did they decide to become successful


>>Commitment to work: This is the most critical aspect to my journey. I commited myself to give atleast 3 hours per day to learn one method. When I started doing this I was getting distracted from shiny emails which showed magical techniques to make money -- Oh by the way this techniques are not used by anyone
In order to get avoid the distraction, I cleaned my emails and unsubscribe to all the irrelevant information providers.

>>Stick to one method: I have been into online marketing for more than 10 years, and while I was on Job I have handled mostly e-commerce clients. So I knew one thing that if I can generate the revenue for them then I can generate revenue for myself, without any hesitation. In Jan, I decided to start with e-commerce store on Shopify. When I decided to go ahead with I haven't looked anything after that.

>>Building my own system: This was this first milestone I wanted to achieve, so I decided to create my own system. Initially, I use to get confuse on what is the system and I always believed that system means money making machine. Which is true for me today also Then I started created system for everything right from how to do a market research, how to find the niche, how to build the store, how to plan your campaigns, how to create test and many more things.

>>Mastering one traffic generation techniques: There are many techniques available in market using which you can generate traffic. To be honest, I like all the methods and at the same time the bitter truth is that not all the techniques will work for everyone. With that reality, I decided to go ahead and learn FB advertising to the core. While I was learning, I was using Google Adwords to promote my store.

Let ask you this to all of you here "Are you all ready to step up your efforts to generate money in 2017?"

I am sure no one here would say NO...

When everyone says YES then why it is not happening. I will tell you what I think.

I have people contacting me for coaching, to be honest, I offer one-on-one coaching which is definitely not a cheap one.

While I speak with them I get following responses:

"How much money can I make?" This question is 100% relevant but then before there one question you should ask yourself "On scale 1-10, how committed are you to make money?" Anything less than 10 means your are not committed, do whatever is required to make yourself to be on 10.

"Can I start making money fast?" Imagine this you have to travel to Australia from the US what will you do? Simple, I will catch a flight and reach Australia. Right? If you said YES then you are partially right. On the day of the journey what will you do? You will leave your house, will go by some vehicle to Airport, Checkin your laugguage & board the flight. And wait till you reach Australia. What if you tell Pilot, "Can I reach Australia in 1 hour?" Smart people will like you and me will not say that. Same is true here also, when you are learning commit yourself to learning first and than to the money.

"I don't know whether I will succeed" I want you think of the time when you started to walk, the first step which you took, was that perfect? Did you fall while balancing? Did you cry when you got hurt? Absolutely! We all have gone through that journey. Fast forward today, are you able to walk, it is pretty much unconcious pattern now. So if you can learn to walk by yourself then learning anything is easy. Believe in Yourself

Warriors, I would say that continue doing the good work. Stop the noise which stops your progress. Learn the skills that help you to step up the money making game.

God Bless & Have a Super Duper 2017....

Regards,
Nirav

    This is interesting because I just attended a webinar yesterday and on the webinar they said they were the only ones doing this system. They were charging $897.00 and it would include a software that would help you find the products on Amazon and Aliexpress and list it on your Shopify store. They would also teach you how to generate FaceBook ads. I did not purchase the program because like you said I have been trying a lot of different programs that promised results with the new differrence is the coaching they would provide. Twenty months later I am still unemployed and now tapped out financially. Everyone says they want to help the people that are struggling but the price they charge the struggling people cannot afford so they really are only helping the people that can afford the help. I am still looking for the one system that really do want to help the struggling. Sorry for the rant.

    Congratulations that you were able to get your hard work to pay off. I wish you continued success.

      Hi Georgia,

      I completely understand what you are saying. I was in the same situation as you are. I had lost my job on the day when my daughter was born, 3 years & 5 months back. I still remember people telling me that your daughter is unlucky. To which my response was that she is not unlucky rather she is demanding, She is telling me"Dad whatever you are earning is not enough me please make more money "

      Georgia, I would suggest that don't take action based on your current situation rather take steps based on where you want to be. Once you are clear on where want to be set the small goals to achieve them. If you do not have enough money to invest in your coaching, then I suggest to spend time learning some stuff watching videos which you can find all over the internet. Believe it or not there are lot of good videos.

      I still remember, I was speaking to a popular coach who gave me an advice of borrowing a money from friends and family to enrol into the course. Thankfully, I didn't follow his advice.

      Regards,
      Nirav

    Congrats on your success, but I believe there's no real substance in your post. If you could lay out a step by step action plan I believe it could actually help warriors. Other than that it's just a big inbox pitchfest.

      I personally believe that what is more important is the mindset and that is what I wanted to convey. If I am not able to convey that then I apologize for it.

      Moreover, I have been following the same steps that are being discussed in the forums. If I mentioned those steps then people tell the same thing, nothing new we all know it.

      For example: If I say that I started with doing niche research. I went to on Amazon and Pinterest to do a research. What do you think is it new? Absolutely not, but reality is that unless you find your away you will not know the unique way that suits your style and personality.

      I hope you understood what I am saying here.

    Thank you for sharing
    your success.

    Love what wrote and particularly on the
    >> Mindset Shift

    For that I just want to add that when
    people are working on their mindset
    they need to find their why..
    why they are doing this?

    and all ways keep improving the mindset
    by reading and learning because there isn't any
    "magic" only hard work.

    I certainly did, including your purchases of WSOs on coaching, CPA, Facebook marketing, etc, all within the last year or so.

    Your post in April 2016 with an income screen shot drew this response from Warrior Nortong:
    "Sorry, am I missing something? He has spent enough on FBA courses to buy a house and now has earned less than $10 in a week (March 28 - April 3, 2016) as a result of doing an NLP course (what ever that is) and seems pleased and is congratulated - I must be living in a parallel universe!"
    Wow, congratulations again on just an unbelievable story.

      Hi Steve,

      This is not a per month income. It is for 10 months, I would love to reach that as per month goal.

      Thank you for the kind words.

    FYI, the posted screenshot is ₹49.8 million RS (Indian Rupee). That's $745k USD or $74k a month for 10 months. Still great numbers!!

    Can you share your profit after ad spend, staff, inventory and expenses? That's the real magic number that will inspire everyone I think.

        Hi Brent,

        I am not sure on what you are try to convey. I have been sharing my experiences from the last 5-6 months. If you really want to know on what I have been doing.

        I am a firm believer of sharing the knowledge and that is the reason I am here.

        There are few unexpected comments and responses. I do respect them because it is a opinion of a person based on the certain experiences they had in the past, obviously not with me though

    Ok, a few more questions because the newbies on the WF may not have invested in their shiny tinfoil hats yet...

    Based on the information above, how do I know these aren't screenshots from your clients accounts?

    So none of the other systems worked...but now yours does. You figured it all out on your own. I mean...you figured everything out! Excellente! (I'm using the more exaggerated latin version)

    Oh...OH! Now it all makes sense! People have been asking about coaching? HOW?? You haven't edited the thread and this comment was part of the original thread. So how were getting asked about coaching before you posted the thread?

    You see fellow Warrior Forum members, this is the type of post that would have been deleted pretty quickly with the old administration. Be careful out there! Time to move along, there's nothing to see here. Don't forget to buy your shiny hats on the way out.

    Did you buy your shiny hat yet? Great! Here's the formula the original poster is using (memorize it so you can recognize it later):

    1) Tell a sad story about how bad it was. How you've spent money on useless stuff. C'mon man, build some rapport with your audience.

    2) Tell us how it all got turned around. +1 if you mention "mindset shift"

    3) Post a screenshot of earnings. +1 if you can't tell where it's from. +2 if it's not yours.

    4) Sprinkle in a "series of steps" that doesn't really explain anything or help anyone. It's just filler to get people hot and ready to find the "real answer".

    5) Mention coaching somewhere so people contact you because everyone wants to know the "real steps" you can't (or refuse to) share. Make sure you pre-qualify your audience by mentioning how expensive it is in step 2.

    6) Profit through PMs! And get your thread deleted because people have been doing this here a LONG time.

    are you afraid of telling us about your system?

      Hi John,

      The objective of sharing this post is to guide people. I am here to help but at the sametime I don't know what you want know. If you tell me what you want to know, I will do my level best to explain.

      Lastly, I am not afraid of sharing my system. I should know what you are curious to learn.

      Also, if someone wants to steal the system they will do it anyway. If I can help you in any way please let me know.

      Regards,
      Nirav

    let us know your store name, how you made it and how much (I doubt if any), will be easier to find out. Anyone (even a 5th grader) can make that screenshot, so I am not impressed at all. Big incomes are sure success, but you got to be very popular in order to make that, so I am asking your business name. It will resonate itself, no need to post your great income without telling the actual story behind it. Again, anyone can prepare that screenshot. I do not mean to discourage you, but authenticity is the key here.

      I am not selling anything here. If you think that it is faked, then my friend I would say that it is your thought which I will respect.

      As mentioned earlier, I am here to share my story if you want learn from it then great, choice is yours. I never thought that I am here to impress someone, if you think it is the case then I sincerely apologize for it.

      Lastly, I would say this to you my friend, let us say I invite you for the dinner, you can either accept or reject it. But if you say let me see your wife and let me see how she cooks only then I will decide, what do you think? Is that a fair expectation absolutely not.

      Same is here!!!

      It looks like some old-aged, fat, lazy forum members need to retire. We need more young, charismatic, young brains who got some fresh ideas and aren't envy to each other. I do not even understand why they comment which is completely meaningless. Got tremendous amounts of free time, huh?

        You kids kill me.

        Yes, what this forum needs is more fantasy posts that contain no substance and no evidence of even one single fact.

        I don't understand why I comment here either, to be honest.

        I've been saving the post about how I made $17.34 million last weekend picking up change in a Wal-Mart parking lot because of my mindset.

        Maybe I'll let that one out then leave the forum to you young, charismatic, clueless newbs. Who knows.

    Thanks for the info. Not sure exactly what you are trying to convey. You should offer a training course or a membership site. If in fact you have perfected this method.

    Hey all,

    I am taken by a shock with some responses what I have seen here.

    I would urge everyone that before you post something which is fishy, please search my previous threads which I have already shared.

    Let me make it clear here, I am not here prove myself. I will still continue doing what I am doing i.e. hard & smart work. If you think that it is not useful, then I will not post it here.

    Regards,
    Nirav

    My busness partner (the one that's totally crazy about, SEO and SEM, I'm more in the creative department) has been working on this stuff for quite some time and is about to launch his brand using facbeook ads and shopify.

    To get to the point he's at now he relentlessly followed the story of 3 brands that have this business model. He's scrutinized the entire thing from top to bottom over and over and over again, looking for the good parts, the bad ones, what can be optimized and what should not be touched no matter what.

    A number of things have come up during this investigation:

    1.- The opportunity is there, it is still there.

    2.- It has TON of technicalities and finer points that need to be taken into account during theentire process, from brand building, to shopify add-ons to facebook campaign to actual customer acquisition and sales funnel.

    3.- Due to the complexity level it is at now, not a lot of people will have all of the know how.

    4.- Point 3 is the edge, the old information assimetry. The minute this becomes public knowledge the system saturates and FB ads prices make it no longer a viable model unless you are in a big corporation (kind of what happened with Google ads with the exception of the people that have taken the time and effort to refine their system to a point it which it has solid professional work grade.)

    5.- Considering this information assimetry is the edge, it is absolutely dumb to make the system public unless it no longer gives you the results you want, st which point you sell the system for extra profits for people in other fields you ar enot in to use it.

    6.- The problem with point 5 is that it then will quickly become common knowledge, saturate and not be as effective.

    7.- So to summarize, if you are using the system and it is giving you the results, coaching the system will damage you long term because as competition increases in any given field the price of ads do as well and FB and others will move those prices up to all segments very quickly, simply because they can get away with it.

    If you have only tested the system to work and want to make your money from teaching it I will personally build an altar to some obscure demoniacal entity and curse you with it for being part of the destruction of my partners dreams.

    Humor aside, it would be great to get the url of the business getting these kinds of results. some quick numbers ( correct me if I', wrong, it's late and I'mold and tired...

    unique visitors: 1161168
    orders: 35.5k
    revenue: 49.8 million

    ATV: 49800000/35500= 1402.82 rupee / 66.85= 20.98$
    conversion rate: 35500/1161168*100=3.06%
    today's rate: 1$= 66.846 rupees, let's call it 66.85 for calc. purposes so:
    Revenue in dollars: 744951.38$

    a) Average transaction around 20$ so you are selling a product that is not too expensive. Good.

    b) 3.06% conversion. Not bad at all considering the industry teaches you to calculate your starting conversions in a range between 0.5 and 2% when starting from scratch. Very good.

    c) Cost of product: without knowing the cost of product we don't have gross margin which is a basic measure to check the health of the entire operation and judge its viability. If the product is digitally delivered probably good, if physical product depends on cost. NOt knowing = bad

    d) Cost of delivery/logistics: Again if digital good if physical depends. Not knowing = bad

    e) cost of infrastructure: if it is a digital product and you aintain the hwole thing at home or in small office, looking at your numbers im fairly sure you are covered. If physical product again depends onmany factors. Not knowing = bad

    f) Cost of FB ads campaign: This one is big and I speak from personal experience.

    My first adwords campaign ever ( back in 2007/2008), fr a digital product to which I affiliated started with better conversions, better ATV, better everything.

    But it was my first campaign, it was obvious i was going to **** it up somewhere and boy did I do it grandly! campaign was set to show only for direct searches on Google and at some point I decided more exposure was good and clicked the option to show it in the entire display network...

    My cost per add went from cents to 4 pounds per click, for a product i was selling in dollar price ( another lesson learnt form that one). I sold 150$ of product, cost of campaign 500 british pounds...

    It's been a long way ever since but I have acquired a number of lessons over the years. I'm going to share one with you all today. It is something that also the Twitter stock trader known as Modern_rock and the Forex trader known as FXViper share freely, just as I will share freely here.

    No amount of overpriced training will teach you the lessons you get by making your own mistakes. All the information you need to make it is already on the internet. Free of charge. Learn to search for it, learn it, practice, make your own mistakes and move on.

    Congrats on your success.

      That was sleek & precise calculation

      Thank you for kind words and really good motivation for me as well. The numbers which you derived 99% accurate.

      Yes, the producs which I am selling is not expensive. There are some senior members who wanted to know the numbers, the calculation is already done here.

They would also teach you how to generate FaceBook ads. I did not purchase the program because like you said I have been trying a lot of different programs that promised results with the new differrence is the coaching they would provide. Twenty months later I am still unemployed and now tapped out financially. Everyone says they want to help the people that are struggling but the price they charge the struggling people cannot afford so they really are only helping the people that can afford the help. I am still looking for the one system that really do want to help the struggling. Sorry for the rant.

    How nice that these two posters decided to join the forum to contribute to this very suspicious thread. Tip to you young, charismatic, fools... This is not a new trick. The whole telling a fake story... having your friends or having multiple accounts comment on your thread...

      Hi,

      Okay, so you mean to say that if someone who has just joined is my friend or my own account.

      I do not control on whom to allow comments, if that would have been the case then story would have been different.

      Fake story??? I think I am wasting my time by sharing experiences here.

      Giving an opinion is okay but being disrespectful is not being acceptable...

      However, this is my last post here. I have taken lot of bad response here which I am not here...

    Going for coaching is a hard one for me to swallow. Parts of it feel like a sham. While I know there are great coaches out there who are not shams the fact is there are many that are. I've seen some coaches charge 100s to 1000s of dollars for coaching.

    The problem is there are people out there trying to learn how to make money and alot of it is because they don't have a lot of money. How does this help them? Many marketers use that hunger.

    I understand some are legit and are well worth their weight in Gold. Don't get me wrong but how do you know where to truly invest when it comes to coaching? Someone shows you some screenshots? Shows you a big house in a video? I mean how do you find the Golden coaches?

    You know if I was at that level of coaching I would do this. I would do it for free. Take 100 people each year, train them, put them under contract that I will receive 10% of what they earn after they use my method. If I was that confident in my coaching skills and that they would make money then it would be an even better investmet in the long run.

    If just 2 students a year start making those magic millions many of these coaches say they make then 10% of 2 million is better than taking their 2000 bucks ain't it?

    At least if I was a coach that is what I'd do. Nice little residual and then I don't have to keep coaching unless it is for fun.

    Ive read most of the posts here, and no one has mentioned the fact that this user hasnt even said what is he selling, what are his products?, who is he selling those products?. The mystical story about believing in ourselfs and all of that is ok, but we need facts, not catchy phrases, this is a marketing forum for gods sake.

      I think MOST successful warriors NEVER disclose their main Methods

      the "disclosed" ones are mostly "paid wso's "
      so

      i dont think there is any base to say its fake because he didnt say anything clearly..i mean if you ask most of the successful warriors to "disclose " their real earning secrets and tools 99% would say some mumbo jumbo about this and that

      Don't know if the OP did or did not get that kind of revenue.

      What I do know is that the steps outlined do help.

      Let me take it out of making money. In my world, there are tons of people who want to lose weight. Some are forever talking about how they'd like to be 30 LBS lighter but never do anything about it. Some do, lots and lots, yet 34 weight-loss programs later they're 10 LBS heavier.

      The reason: they're missing 1 or more of the steps the OP has outlined.

        Well said!

        There are a lot of systems, even coaching, done for you systems and list goes on & on.

        All this works only when you have the right mindset. I have seen so many people who start with strong willingness and then in the middle of the journey they leave it like that.

        I know people here have been telling me that don't be selfish, and also I was being told this a fake story

        Friends this is the good example for everyone here. Look at this scenario in other way, you will people around you who will be telling negative about what you do. Also, there is one monster sitting inside the brain who will haunt you by telling "WHAT IF YOU FAIL"

        In order to succeed you need to get rid off the noises. Period.

        By the way what I have shown here is 100% true - my friend. There is a video which I have posted here for....

        Once again thank you very much for putting the point in a more clear way.

        Regards,

    Nirav,

    Thank you for taking your time and sharing your story. I am as new as they come to this kind of business but have been interested in it for quite awhile. I have finally decided to step up and give myself a 10 when it comes to my desire to succeed, which was a wonderful suggestion on your part. Thank you!
    I have read all the following comments by others, both nice and nasty. You took time to share your thoughts and examples that have been successful for you which you didn't have to do as I'm sure you're a busy man. The ones writing the nasty or degrading comments obviously have been unsuccessful and sadly there are people out there who will never take responsibility for their own failures and the only soliste they can find for themselves is to find ways to drag others particularly others who are successful down with them as a sad personal therapeutic way to make them feel better? about their failures.
    I know there are people out there who prey upon the hopes and dreams of others by lying and promising 100% successful results for but a small (actually huge) fee, and this is a topic I would like to study & understand to avoid such a pitfall. If you have any experience or advice for helping others identify the good from the bad, as I'm sure there are both types of programs.
    Finally I thank you for your knowledge and sharing of ideas. I'm sorry there are such sore losers who can't keep quiet when they have absolutely nothing positive to share even worse those who go out of their way to mock and insult kind individuals like yourself. I base my belief in your goodness only on a hunch as I could be completely wrong and the others who doubt are right. I choose to give the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise (research, learning, investigating, evaluating but most of all HARD WORK)!!! I no longer learn the hard way by being swindled out of my hard earned and saved money just because I want instant gratification.
    Thanks again and continued success my friend.

      I think you're making unwarranted assumptions: just because someone disagrees with the OP doesn't mean they're unsuccessful.

      They might have been here long enough to have seen similar threads started to end in nightmares (the OP of those threads put together a WSO that sucked or worse).

      The OP's thread title promises something the OP didn't deliver... There's nowhere in the OP's points a direct connection made between Shopify + Facebook and the advice given.

      And the claim of revenue, even if true, is not all that meaningful: If you make 7.6 million in revenue at a cost of 7.599 million, you ain't done much that's worthy of praise, for instance.

      But, I agree with you, the OP has covered something many miss.

The ones writing the nasty or degrading comments obviously have been unsuccessful and sadly there are people out there who will never take responsibility for their own failures and the only soliste they can find for themselves is to find ways to drag others particularly others who are successful down with them as a sad personal therapeutic way to make them feel better? about their failures.

        The OP's thread title promises something the OP didn't deliver... There's nowhere in the OP's points a direct connection made between Shopify + Facebook and the advice given.

        And the claim of revenue, even if true, is not all that meaningful: If you make 7.6 million in revenue at a cost of 7.599 million, you ain't done much that's worthy of praise, for instance.

        But, I agree with you, the OP has covered something many miss.


        Arent you the one making assumptions ?


        this is a Mind warriors place
        this is not a sales thread
        OP didnt say he is going to reveal the exact step by step methods..if he wanted to do that i think definately he would make an wso out if it

        He told that he is doing such a thing
        and he told 5 things that enabled him to do that
        and its as simple as that

        people are angry because he did not reveal his "secret"
        well his secret is facebook ads + shopify

        thats it
        thats the secret

        I pmed the op and he told me how he is doing

        how great would it be for people who wanted to know to just send pm to the OP and ask ????

        and

        I too have a shopify and facebook and I make like 500$ in sales ...

        so I am not angry or frustrated he didnt share is exact keywards and campaigns and his niche and everything he has ...LOL

        This is a mind forum

        and i think he clearly showed the mindset that helped him

        But lots of other people definately do not have a good mindset !!

          I do make assumptions. I always have to make assumptions. You always have to make assumptions.

          In my world, a title like the OP's requires a recipe right after. Whereas, what the OP delivered is, How to Get Ready kind of answer. And the info is useful, but it does not match the thread title.

          He could have done all they said they did but without doing something else, they'd have made not a penny.

          The title should have been something like:
          I could not have made 7.6 million in revenue in the last 10 months had I not done these 5 things...

          My point, though, and you seem to have missed it:
          The info the OP provided is useful
          Just because someone agrees with you, does not mean they're not successful (and vice versa)
          Matching title and content prevents comments that distract from the points of the post.

            well thats a different point of view , i do accept that

            But I wanted to say that it does not necessarily qualify him as " fake " or "deceptive "

            Like others were trying to potray him

            and I am also not supporting him for any benefits of my own as the advice he gave me was more general than specific

            he didnt try to sell anything to me

            so i thought , " well i wouldnt expose my own methods either if it was competitive "

    Real interesting how people tear apart someone's journey of change

    By the way congrats to the OP for taking action with your mindset change

    I can understand and see the frustration from all of you when someone doesn't fill in all the blanks of their success but this is not the purpose of the forum category this is why it's called Mind Warriors

    What I got out of this and the purpose of this thread is about changing your mindset period

    The biggest problem with the majority of individuals who are in the IM market is mindset always chasing a shiny object of wanting everything handed to them without the work behind it, I experience this everyday I coach anyone, you give them all the tools but they won't change their mindset

    They keep telling me about the false ideas they are brain washed with what should be working but won't listen to the truth and follow thru

    If your not succeeding you either have not failed enough or following the wrong people for advice

    I can't tell you how many times I've hit a wall following the wrong advice, what works for one doesn't for another then move on and learn from your experience

    I did this till I took what I learned and started doing my own thing like the OP did, I keep taking action

    There is no secret to secrets just hard work and common sense, which I don't see here in this forum these days

      Well Said!!!

      Apparently I have noticed that the things which people hate is the mindset shift. I still remember my college days and especially my friend who was really good in flirting with girls.

      I use to always use to wonder why is that he is able to do it and not me. He always use to say me that "Nirav what you need is the confidence".

      Imagine my friend and I had every what male has but still there was a difference. The same is true any scenario - here I am talking about is the business - you can have a best system but it will not work if you don't have the right mindset, what makes the difference is the what you think.

      Mindset is the key to success. Period.

      I am really thankful that there are few people here who really understood what I am saying here.

      Regards,
      Nirav

    I am back with some inspiration for all of who are struggling to make money online or are unable to scale up the business.

    To be honest, I can brag about how easy it is to do it. You will have a magic wand which you just move on the Shopify store & money will flow. Let's face it - there is nothing is called as a free lunch. We all need to work hard to achieve the results.

    >> Mindset Shift: Till last year, I was always looking for the done for you system or some techniques which can help me to quick money. In doing so, I had spend money on one system to another & outcome was that my situation had not changed. In fact, my financial losses were growing because of unplanned spends. I am sure most of us would have gone this journey or going through it at the moment. Let me the truth, if you want to be successful then do not follow the system rather create the you system.

    Do not copy what successful people do rather copy how did they decide to become successful


    >>Commitment to work: This is the most critical aspect to my journey. I commited myself to give atleast 3 hours per day to learn one method. When I started doing this I was getting distracted from shiny emails which showed magical techniques to make money -- Oh by the way this techniques are not used by anyone
    In order to get avoid the distraction, I cleaned my emails and unsubscribe to all the irrelevant information providers.

    >>Stick to one method: I have been into online marketing for more than 10 years, and while I was on Job I have handled mostly e-commerce clients. So I knew one thing that if I can generate the revenue for them then I can generate revenue for myself, without any hesitation. In Jan, I decided to start with e-commerce store on Shopify. When I decided to go ahead with I haven't looked anything after that.

    >>Building my own system: This was this first milestone I wanted to achieve, so I decided to create my own system. Initially, I use to get confuse on what is the system and I always believed that system means money making machine. Which is true for me today also Then I started created system for everything right from how to do a market research, how to find the niche, how to build the store, how to plan your campaigns, how to create test and many more things.

    >>Mastering one traffic generation techniques: There are many techniques available in market using which you can generate traffic. To be honest, I like all the methods and at the same time the bitter truth is that not all the techniques will work for everyone. With that reality, I decided to go ahead and learn FB advertising to the core. While I was learning, I was using Google Adwords to promote my store.

    Let ask you this to all of you here "Are you all ready to step up your efforts to generate money in 2017?"

    I am sure no one here would say NO...

    When everyone says YES then why it is not happening. I will tell you what I think.

    I have people contacting me for coaching, to be honest, I offer one-on-one coaching which is definitely not a cheap one.

    While I speak with them I get following responses:

    "How much money can I make?" This question is 100% relevant but then before there one question you should ask yourself "On scale 1-10, how committed are you to make money?" Anything less than 10 means your are not committed, do whatever is required to make yourself to be on 10.

    "Can I start making money fast?" Imagine this you have to travel to Australia from the US what will you do? Simple, I will catch a flight and reach Australia. Right? If you said YES then you are partially right. On the day of the journey what will you do? You will leave your house, will go by some vehicle to Airport, Checkin your laugguage & board the flight. And wait till you reach Australia. What if you tell Pilot, "Can I reach Australia in 1 hour?" Smart people will like you and me will not say that. Same is true here also, when you are learning commit yourself to learning first and than to the money.

    "I don't know whether I will succeed" I want you think of the time when you started to walk, the first step which you took, was that perfect? Did you fall while balancing? Did you cry when you got hurt? Absolutely! We all have gone through that journey. Fast forward today, are you able to walk, it is pretty much unconcious pattern now. So if you can learn to walk by yourself then learning anything is easy. Believe in Yourself

    Warriors, I would say that continue doing the good work. Stop the noise which stops your progress. Learn the skills that help you to step up the money making game.

    God Bless & Have a Super Duper 2017....

    Regards,
    Nirav
    Phew, good article, and l tend to agree with you, at face value.

    You have pretty much described how l an able to make my business pay off in a big way.

    That is the catch, that you may not know if what you are putting everything into, can Actually pay up big?

    In my case it was finding a proved saleable product and doing it faster than most.

    So a newbie does one in a week, and it takes him 10 years to make 5k a month, and person B, finds a quicker way and does it within a year.

    No magic wand is required, but being able to critically study your efforts when things look bleak is necessary.

    That is when the vein of gold appears.

    Funny thing is when l was recently at a low epp with my business, l also asked, "how can l make as much from this as is possible"

    And found an answer, that was pretty obvious, but l was putting all of my efforts into something else at the time.

    Adversity is not there to push you into quitting it is there to get your unproductive thoughts out of the way.
