Made My First Sale Today!

77 replies
Hey everyone, just needed to tell someone that i have just made my first sale EVER online! lol Ive spent alot of time over the past couple months " researching" IM. Fell into the trap like many newbies of buying products that claim to make you Rich but obviously didnt make a penny. I began to doubt whether it was for me but there was still something somewhere saying you can do this! Now im glad i carried on, sure it was only $24 but that doesnt matter. The fact is i have proven to myself that i can and thats the best motivation EVER! My advice to people starting out in internet marketing is just to persevere because eventually you will make the breakthrough you have been waiting for. I remember reading something similar to what i have written here today and thinking yeah right its never going to happen. Just be patience, to your success

      Congrats! It is exciting for anyone when they make their first sale online because it really is difficult for most people to get to that point. I'm sure everyone know by know the famous "95% of people never make any money online". So when you do make a sale, you know you're on the right track and have persevered through all the setbacks that are inevitable in online business. You can only succeed in this business if you never quit!

      While reading a lot about IM isn't a bad thing per se, you also need to be careful not to fall into the trap of over-researching and over-analyzing things in IM.

      Try to split your time evenly, i.e. for every hour you read about IM, try to spend a solid hour implementing your IM method. If you follow this simple rule of thumb, you'll find yourself attaining success much faster than if you remain in "research" mode for too long.

    That's a great accomplishment on your part. Take a look at what you did and think about how you can make it better. What mistakes have you made? What aspects of your strategy can you improve? Analyze these things and implement some solutions, and you'll find your results to be more pleasing.

    Congratulations man!

    After my daily grind without a sale I like nothing better than to come to the WF to find a success story. That pushes me to keep going.

    You and your success is an inspiration to "sale virgins" like myself, though I hope to one day become a "sale slut" so to speak.

    Love the great sense of community this forum provides too!

    To many many many more sales for you and my fellow Warriors!

    Hail Hail!

    Enjoy it and may it be the first of many. Well done for persevering.

    Hey guys thanks for the comments, as a couple people have mentioned this thread is about 4 months old lol Dont know why it got popular again anyway im proud to say that im currently making about $100/150 a day at the moment My advice to people starting out is remember that this is a business, its not a gimmick. Put in the effort and you will reap the rewards, i got my first sale after about a month online and continued to grow from there. I dont want to make it sound like it was easy because it wasnt, alot of things i tried failed horribly but i dusted myself off and did something until it worked. Like Rocky said - "It aint about how hard you hit, its about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward" To Your Success, Matt

    Good job Matt! Nothing matters really until you make that first sale! And guess what, we've ALL fallen into the trap of buying products like that (and still do really)...but the real principle time and time again is work consistently at the right things every day and never stop learning and eventually you will prove to be successful! Congrats!
