OK, I will show you –

YOU are 7 “Stupid-simple” steps from

MAKING Money with Internet Marketing

From: James Ferguson
Friday 9/9/2009

If you are anything like me, you have spent way too much time and way too much money trying to figure out a way to make money online.

And maybe time and money are a bit tight right now and you just can’t convince yourself to be manipulated by one more golden tongued sales letter only to end up with one more leaden product.

Tired of the Bulls_ _ t?

This isn’t going to be a golden tongued sales letter selling crap. It’s going to be a just-ok sales letter telling you about a solid decent solution.

Think of it this way – you are lost in the in the forest of internet information overload and you need a way to find “home”.

Now, we ALL want those ruby slippers that Dorothy had in “The Wizard of Oz” that all you have to do is click them together three times to get home instantly.

Seen any Ruby Slippers lately?

We have all been sold a load of crap. They promise Ruby Slippers and instant transport home and we get rags to wrap around our feet and instructions to “Just follow your nose”.
This is in the middle – not “magic” ruby slippers and not rags and B.S. – this is a pair of solid hiking boots and a map with proven directions home. With no hidden costs for the “compass”.

Welcome to the real world.

"7 Steps to Your First Affiliate Sale!

The NO Cost Squidoo Way"

We all want to chase after Ruby Slippers - We all want to get it perfect the very first time and we all want not have to work at it that hard and we all want it yesterday.

And the snake oil salesmen have that all figured out.

What we NEED is a proven plan, a “path through the forest” and a willingness to “start walking”.

Be Honest

You are probably afraid of messing up. Join the club. We all are.
But this “It’s got to be perfect before I begin, before I can jump into the process” can be a very costly kind of paralysis.

True story: About ten years ago my brother Skip (the accountant) and my brother Mark (the “Ready-FIRE!-Aim” kind of guy) went on an overnight canoe trip on the Saco river in Maine. (That’s were I grew up),
The only available place to pitch their tents was on a sand bar on the river. It rained hard upriver from them that night. They were dead asleep after a hard day on the river.

Suddenly Mark awoke to the river raising his tent floor as the rapidly swelling river began to rush over the sandbar. He stumbled out of the tent into the rising water just in time to catch the canoe as it started top be carried off.

In the dark and chaos my accountant brother Skip began to fold and pack their gear neatly in the canoe. That’s how he liked things done. My brother Mark was furiously flinging everything he could get his hands onto into a tangled heap in the canoe at panic speed.

Before they could get everything, the surging water pulled them off the sand bar and they clamored aboard the canoe. They were lucky - a lot of people on the river that night lost a lot more (luckily no one lost their life).

Is the water rising around your financial boat?

Isn’t it time to take action?

Too many of us, I think, are like my brother Skip (me too) – cautious, careful, let’s not make any mistakes! It took me months and months (lets not talk about the money spent) slugging through the forest of Internet Marketing information overload for me to find my way.

I’d like to save you that trouble.,

If you are the cautious type - OK – here is the plan and all the directions and details – with illustrations. If you are the “Ready- FIRE- Aim” type – I’ve done the “aiming” for you.

TESTIMONIES

JUST WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!

This is Zeynep Shaw. I needed a step by step guide. A guide that broke it down into simple steps – click this – do this – follow this illustration.[/eft]

[highlight]

This guide eliminated the whole muddled confusion I was in about how to make money online. This is just what I was looking for!

I really was pleasantly surprised that I did not have to buy or spend money on anything else. Everything I needed was right here and there were no hidden costs like Pay Per Click or special software that were needed to make this work.

This is just what I needed to build my confidence and (finally) get started. Thanks Jim!/highlight]

- Zeynep Shaw

“A clearly Proven way of

Making money online.”

Oh no! Not another ‘make money fast on the internet’ e-book!

Well, no, it isn’t! If you want no nonsense, pragmatic, highly readable, step-by-step formula for making money online that is easy to follow and requires your attention and endeavor rather than your money, this e-book is for you.

Right from the outset I warmed to Jim Ferguson’s approach.

He states that ‘ninety percent of the people’ fail at online marketing. As he says, this is probably because ‘making money online is not as easy as we are led to believe’.

When he talks about how so many of us end up ‘jumping ship’ from one idea or product to another, I sat up and took notice. I can certainly, as I’m sure many others can, identify with this.

Here, at last, is someone who is not just going to ‘talk the talk’ but will ‘walk the walk’ in a transparent and open way and that’s exactly what he does throughout the book.

It is difficult not to be caught up in Jim’s enthusiasm in his clearly proven way of making money online. This guide is full of useful resources and online tools and, without overburdening the reader, this makes the e-book worth the money alone even if you decided not to follow his Squidoo regime.

However, in my opinion, if you do not follow his step by step approach you will ultimately be the loser and part of the statistic that he quotes of the over ninety nine percent of people who fail to make money online.
