So, why are so many people still failing?
The problem is not that there is a shortage of information.
The problem is that there is a MOUNTAIN of information that is sure to bury you and have you spending the next two years digging yourself out.
Look, I spent over two years wading through tons of information and plans on list building and email marketing.
I built lists. Lots of them.
But I still never made more that it cost to build and maintain them.
Not until I discovered the most important factor of all.
Simplicity!
That's it. Nothing more.
I suppose that all the months studying helped me come to this realization.
But, hopefully, you can avoid all that by taking what I've learned and skip the time wasting hard stuff.
Just starting out it is imperative that the newbie not get bogged down in website development, keyword research, HTML editing, video making and on and on.
Nope . . . non of that stuff is necessary to get started.
Sure it's something everyone should understand but it's not something that you should try to become proficient in.
Unless that's what you want to do for a living.
No, no, no. You want to make money online. You want to see that it is possible for you to do. You need to begin understanding the basics of how business is done.
You want to spend 95% of your time doing the one thing you will have to have a good working knowledge of. Building a profitable list.
Getting sidetracked trying to learn how to do graphics or edit a web page html or any of the many specialties involved in online marketing you're doomed to never accomplish your main goal. Making money!
So what's the solution?
Hire out all those little tasks.
You can find help in many places online. From no and low cost to top of the line help.
Start out looking for no and low cost help and work your way up as your income allows.
There are a ton of resources right here in the forum.
Fiverr has a low cost gig for just about anything.
My best advice to anyone just getting started is to stay focused on what you want.
Just do the things that will make you money.
Let others do what they are good at.
Don't spend all your time trying to learn everything.
(You will end up being good at nothing.)
In other words Keep It Simple.
Keep every aspect of what you do simple.
