Looking for a mentor
A little bit about myself (can't link my webpage as I need to rebuild my post counter):
I live in Denmark and have been involved with Internet Marketing since 2001. this forum was actually my very first investment waaaay back (if we don't count my very first one which was a chain letter on how to earn $50.000 in 90 days heh).
I just recently started using google adwords as I was tired of using the free traffic exchange programs in order to generate traffic. I also got fed up of all the turnkey all-in-one business that are selling like mad these days. What good is the perfect product if you can't drive targeted traffic to it?
Anyways, I'm very technically fit for figuring all this out but I do have a series of questions on changing ads, landing pages, keywords and other things related to adwords.
I've tried lot's of different things online and created lot's of different websites. I pretty much know all the techs involved and have a lot of ideas for making money online. I actually did pretty well back in 2002-2003 when I sold my own (co-owned) software product and also ran a free traffic exchange list building club which reached 10.000 free signups. Back then I had a list so making a little extra on affiliate products was easy.
Lot's of personal things happened and I left the IM scene.
The last 3 years I spent trying to build up my own Internet Marketing Game. I also outsourced the programming to India. Things took way too long and it ended up with my budget on 0 and the site not ready for launch.
I have a lot of tools available (hosting, autoresponder, keyword research etc) and a few ideas but the last few months I realized something pretty important.
I absolutely think I need someone who is successful at this telling me what to do next!
I wish I could grab myself by the neck and kick myself in the a** and just DO IT (like so many of you in here write), but I need help. I need help staying focused on one thing at a time.
I have the ambition.
I have the technical skills.
I am a very fast learner.
I can follow instructions.
I have the funds.
but....
I am easily sidetracked - can't keep focus on my own.
I feel completely alone at this (no family or friends share the interest).
I have too many things going at once.
I would LOVE to work with someone who can take me under their wing for a period of time. I am really trying to take a stand and FOCUS on one thing at the moment which is:
1) PPC (keywords, ads, finding a need that people are searching for)
2) Finding an affiliate program to meet that need
3) Landing Pages (getting people to click onto the affiliate offer).
Like I said I have lot's of ideas and one of them is creating a membership site where people could come and send me their dares. I would then video the dare and share it with them online. I just don't know how to monetize a site like that.
I'm rambling There is so much I would like to say, but I think I'll leave it for now
I hope someone in this forum that has a successful track record are up for the challenge of mentoring me for a period of time. I bet you are so clever you could even make a product out of it titled "How I turned a Confused Dane into a Successful Marketer"
I have Skype, MSN, Facebook, phone anything needed to communicate.
Questions? Please hit me
