New and looking for ideas..

I have only just joined the forum and am new to IM.

Just wanted to know if there are some basic tips or advice that any of you guys could give me in order to start up an online business??

I recently submitted my details to a program that said would earn me a 6 figure sum in less than a year. Is that even possible?

    As to the program, it's unlikely that a brand new business will make that kind of money it's first year out. I won't say impossible, because anything is possible, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

    6 figures a year is possible but not if you are just starting out. Try to sell your own product or service is the best way I believe.

    Instead of focusing on that 6 figure income, I would first focus on making your first dollar online. Don't get distracted because that should be your first priority.

      I totally agree, focus on making your first bucks online, then figure out how you made it, and then expand whatever you did to make more. I find youtube a great place to make money and also is easily expandable!

    Welcome to the forum and IM. If you are new just look around for information and you will get some valuable ideas. But if you are new, it is better to start with promoting affiliate marketing products or programs so that you can learn more about internet marketing. Once you have learned, you can start developing your own products.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck.

    Martin,

    Welcome to the forum. Very happy that you joined us here today.

    It is very possible to earn 6 figures online in less then a year but the one thing that you need to know is that you will need to spend money to make money online.

    It will take a lot of work and dedication but it can be done.

    If you have a great mentor that can teach you, then it can be done.

    I would suggest that you spend time here learning and also take the time to assess your own strengths and weaknesses. That will help you sort out where you should start. Determine something that you can do without a lot of struggle. For many people this is offering a service for some quick money but others opt to promote affiliate products and others choose a different path. You need to take the road that is most comfortable for you.

    Find someone that you admire for whatever reason - someone that is successful and model your work after theirs. Focus on mastering one technique at a time. Focus, persistence, and dedication will be keys to your success. Expect bumps in the road because they will be there, but they are learning opportunities and you should appreciate and value them for that.

    Dude,

    Would strongly suggest you pick just ONE approach. Then read all you can (both on this forum and Google).

    Then make a plan

    Then do the plan

    It works EVERY time if you are willing to put in the work. Just don't flit from one money making scheme to another

    Find a circle of people you trust and bounce ideas off eachother. The biggest mistake newbies have (including me) is trying to many different things at once - or dipping our feet in to many ponds.

    Welcome to our world. WF is a great learning space. By now you've got the good oil:
    1. consider this a business
    2. pick a business model (affiliate marketing, article marketing, blogging, adsense, whatever)
    3. create a plan (ie what you want to achieve and how you'll do it)
    4. work and tweak the plan until you make a sale

    There is no one best way. Trial and error. Vogin's suggestion is a good one.

    All the best!

    Don't Be Guilable. Be prepared to spend time and money finding the
    method that works for you and fits your income goals.

    Don't be afraid to fail or make mistakes because, like it or not they
    will happen -- and they happen even to those who THINK they have
    the perfect solution (as told by their guru).

    Be in it for the long haul or...not at all. Stay confident in yourself and
    always keep your emotions under control (high high's from record profits,
    and low low's from record loses). Keeping a cool head and just "not
    caring" about the results either or will keep your sanity in check.

    There is...so much more mere words from me or others here can't
    explain until you jump in the water yourself.


    I recently submitted my details to a program that said would earn me a 6 figure sum in less than a year. Is that even possible?
    Yes, it IS possible. Don't let anyone tell you it's NOT possible to make 6
    figures in your first year because, it will depend on how current skills &
    more importantly mindset before entering the business.

    You can only handle what your mature enough to handle, and if you feel
    and believe (subconciously and conciously) that you can handle 6 figures
    your first year, it WILL happen.

    Most people have to grow into it (me being one of them), but it always
    depends on the person and the drive and motivation to do so.
