$600 to Launch My IM Career...

25 replies
Hey warriors, I've spent MANY hours scraping through product and service recommendations on the Warrior Forum. After joining the War Room and buying Market Samurai I have $600 dollars left to launch my IM/Affiliate Marketing career.

What's the BEST use I could make of my final $600 to get me on my way?

    Create a product and then pay a list owner with a decent sized list $600 to mail out your product.

    Done.

        hehe - I would never do it with our list - plenty of people will though

        For $600 you could probably get someone with a list size of 600 - 1000 to mail for you.

        You might not make back your whole 600 on the mailing, BUT you will gain a decent amount of subscribers if you offer a freebit and a "cheaper" product on the thank you page or something like that.

        If you have your act together, 2 mailings later, your $600 will be back in your pocket - then the rest is gravy.

          i highly recommend niche blogs. Buy a course like "google sniper" and learn how to set up profitable niche blogs.

          Its a great method because its a low investment high yield method. However if your already set on something else, or invested an education in something else don't give up.

          It's better to be amazing at one method that be average at them all.

            Hello,

            Niche Blog ? Are you stating that the Internet Marketer must post blog responses or should the Internet Marketer actually start the blog. Please elaborate more on your solution.

            Thanks

          $600 to a list of 1,000? I have a list of 5,000 that I have gathered only for my business.
          Might be time to sell of some of the 2009 crowd??

            Hi there, how does one go about buying a list for a certain niche. I have an ebook to launch, ie acne for example, so what kind of list could I purchase and from where?

            Many thanks

      What would be considered a decent sized list?

      Thanks!

    If the War Room (I mean the older posts by the owner of this forum and quite a number of "veterans") doesn't give you solid ideas about "launching your IM career" - then I don't know what could we tell you...

    This post in this moment is just above your on the main page

    You might not like this answer but if you've only got $600 left, should you really be selling products that teach people how to make money?

    I mean, if you can make decent money, then sure why not cash in on your methods.. but starting a new career that shows people how to make money - when you're not making money from it yourself, isn't very ethical in my opinion.

      Who said he was selling a product that teaches people how to make money.

      He maybe is, but nowhere in this thread can I see it

    Maybe he isn't, due the amount of folks here saying they want to sell "make money" products but are flat broke, it's becoming my default response.

    Hey jkelley,

    My best advice is to keep a tight grip on your money!

    No doubt you've already gotten PM's from folks offering your their products and services for a nice little fee.

    If you're just beginning then there is an absolute TON of info out there that you can learn for free. Most ebooks in the IM space are simply rehashed interpretations of what you can find for free.

    Personally, I find more value in purchasing particular tools and those things necessary to run your online business such as hosting, autoresponder...etc.

    Best of Luck!

    You should be using the $600 for buying domain names and hosting. Start using Market Samurai and find markets you are interested in competing in.

    Choose a method of promotion you like from the War Room. ONLY ONE METHOD!

    Then go to work. Keep Working. Use the $600 to buy only the essential items you need to build your business. One of those essentials must be an autoresponder service. (Don't go free here, get a quality service, Aweber, GetResponse, IMNica, etc.)

    If you had more money then Jeremy's idea would be great, but I'd hate to sink my last money into the idea. Then again, Jeremy is making big money, and I'm just building up a business.

    simple..

    do not get a freebie that you have rights to giveaway
    create a good squeeze page and build your list
    spend your $600 to get traffic to that squeeze page through various sources

    You can easily collect over 3000 leads using the $600.

    then sell quality affiliate products to your list for lifelong

    All the best.

    Thank you.

    There are many things you can use that $600 for.

    You can buy some site flipping ebooks here and learn how to flip sites.

    Buy 1-2 article marketing ebooks here and incooperate site flipping and article marketing. Then pay someone to write like 100 articles for you.

    Go for one on one coaching with someone who has the experience.

    If you don't know what to do with the $600- don't do anything with it.

    Do stuff that does not cost anything. That's not to say that you can make money w/o spending- you will need the $600 and more.

    Positive return on investment only happens when you know what you are doing.

    hai, jkelly,,

    just an opinion... i suggest your build your list first, to do that go to internet marketing forum, there is one section called "Elite money making club", they teach you how to build your list 2k - 3k just for 2-3 weeks...

    they always said 'money is in the list'

    You've got Market Samurai. Do the keyword research and find low competition highly searched for niches and launch a niche blog to sell a product that will solve problems. As an example, if you find some low competition keywords for hair thinning, obviously, a baldness product would be a good fit.
