That stuff you think is just too tedious compared to those flashy Sales Pages of "Push Button Copy and Paste Riches" and Launch Emails that end with "Go! Go! Go! ?"


Just Do The Tedious S***!


Yep that mundane boring crap over and over every single day just do it. Trust me.


I remember a Warrior who is a well known "Guru" now online once he shared that when he was first getting started he just focused on hunkering down and created 100 articles and uploaded them to an eZine website and built a list.


From there it did not matter what he promoted....because at that point he had an audience to promote to. On demand at the push of a button. Get it?


He was not at the mercy of algorithms or Social Platforms Updates that could ruin his business in a heartbeat.


Make that one, crude, rough around the edges, Video and upload it.


Create or Outsource Guest posts, Medium posts, Social Media Posts.



That is how Mr. Beast Got started (a crude video line up with busted cell phone) who makes enough now to give away a million dollars and still make money using that as content.


I was reading an article today of a couple that got laughed at in the beginning and praised in the end....


THAT is your marketing career.



Not always glamorous and alot of times harder than an 8 hour J-O-B (excuse the profanity )


But go ahead...make a video a day...a blog post a day, a social post a day but make sure it helps people and or entertains but always leads to a LEAD in your business that you can monetize now or later or both.


You will be surprised where you are 6 months, a year, or even more compared to the majority of people right where you are today.

    Yeah, I wish I had read that memo 20 years ago. The thing is that most of the time, the meat behind the snazzy sales letter, teaches you to do the boring stuff every day. The sales letter just makes it sound it's all easy and fast.

    And it's not just the yacht. It could be a football career or a college degree or losing and keeping off weight. Pretty much anything worth working for takes consistently doing the boring/tedious stuff.

      You absolutely been there and get it.

      But also I totally encourage those that come up with a new "something something" or see a sliver of light that nobody else sees or is acting on as an marketing entrepreneur.

      I remember reading a guy that made some serious bank with a cheesy website and funnel for "People that Want to Get on Reality TV Shows" before there were any "Kardashians". Brilliant.

      Like finding your "ACNE PILLOW" product or a viral "6 Pack Abs" infomercial.

      Yeah that is me....willing to take the tedious path but another side of me always has a side eye for that incidental grand slam life changer.

    Thanks for these inspirational insights about starting journey in digital marketing area, I think it's really motivational what you wrote about and how you stated with some specific example how much consistency can have a great impact on our results and ultimate success. It's true that we all often miss seeing some bigger pictures and make good predictions about the future, so it happens sometimes that we don't try something out just because it doesn't seem too good to us on this particular moment, and that's shame because if we only tried some things in the past, maybe now we would be very successful and would earn a lot.

      That is also excellent insights my friend thanks for sharing.

      I always hope someone can leverage from our experiences and reach their desired destinations even faster.
