Is it possible to make $1 million in 1 year in internet marketing?

Yes, it can be done.

But the first question I want to know the answer to, is whether you mean in your first year of internet marketing.

Because there are people who make over 1 million per year in internet marketing, but extremely few will ever pull it off in their first year. Because a little of it in those cases is usually luck, since they usually don't have the skills and knowledge yet.

Yes indeed, I know a few people who have done it. Connections mean a lot though, otherwise people get caught up in inaction, trying to learn everything but doing nothing. Conversely I know many many people who have spent the last 5 years doingnothing but reading.

Anything is possible as long as you're determined. This is definitely possible but experience and knowledge will definitely be the determining factor on how you can accomplish this. Not many people get to accomplish this their first year. John Reese accomplished this in 18 hours. Yeap! Pretty darn amazing. He had a domain name and a big company bought it.

If you can create a very fresh, innovative, powerful tools that can attract lots of customers or if you can come up with a great competitor of Facebook and Google.

If you say yes, then 1 million is waiting for you in just 1 year.

I just read an e-mail recently by Mike Geary, creator of "Truth About Abs". He said that he...

2004- Started his business.
2006- Quit his full-time job
2009- Hit 7-figures
2010- Hit 8-figures

So anything's possible, but treat it like a real business. Imagine how great life would be if you made $70,000 your first year and were making 8-figures 6 years later. I'd take that.

If you go for product based marketing .. it will take more than a year to get that target and will be recurring money that you will be getting for years whereas if you go with a service based marketing you can get that target within a year with a month of research on the service you are providing and the money you will be getting could last for a year or 2 .

Isn't that a bit of a silly question? There are companies out there doing $100M/year+ on internet marketing. Isn't that what all the CPA networks are? Clickbooth is a $100m/year company, Ad4D is also.

My biggest year was $30M, with 6 employees.

If you could build an interesting website like facebook and twitter. Maybe.

anything is possible and $1m in your first year is also!

However, it would only be true enterprener at heart people who could achieve that.

It sounds good to do but really don understand that from where I should start to do.

Everything is possible when you know what you are doing and you have the right connections. Alone and without organization you won’t be able to make a cent.

another yes it is possible respond from me, heh.
but within 1 year (on your own) seems rather ambitious, personally i'd think $5k to $10k+ per month target is more realistic
and like some of them remarked, you gotta put in effort, the correct way too - it ain't no fairytale afterall.

In a year? For sure. But as mentioned above...probably not in your first year.

Can be done , but is hard to do it if you are a newbie.
You should focus on learning more stuff and working hard and not hoping to get rich after night.
It isn't going to happen for you.

If you hit 100,000 a year in IM you are a bad ass in my book, if you hit a million you are something special. Everyone is brainwashed with this million dollars. Start with hundreds, work your way into thousands and then eventually maybe that million dollar mark

I do believe it's genuinely possible but not in your first year. (atleast for me this wasn't the case) It took me a year alone to learn the ins and outs of this business and as a result - i've been able to produce some income online....

I think youre reading too many 'get rich now' things and not enough manuals on how to really set up a money making operation...

Not saying that to discourage you...but maybe to use your time a little more wisely...

Not your first year. It takes time to build your business up and getting your name out. But after your first year, yea surly if you know your stuff.

Mike Tyler.

This is easier said than done.

We started off small and humble and use to bring in say $50 a day.

It was quite frustrating, but little did I realise $50 to $500 a day is simple, its just about up scaling and outsourcing. We do that now, and it is not uncommon for me an my business to see $500 days. Not saying that to brag but to show you what is possible and for those reading this that are having those $50 days and cannot break the damn ceiling. I know how frustrating it can be....but you just hit the jackpot...belive you me.

As with cooking, and as they say, its all in the ingredients. Once you have the ingredients and recipe you know how to bake a cake even at 3am in the morning.

Once you know what works and what brings in money Say $50 a day, you have the recipe....and from there there is nothing stopping you from making $200 or even $500 a day.

That is the icing on the cake I think.

Too many people find something that works, and then go out and look for something to work better. But they have already found the answer, possibly to making their first million online.

Yes it can be done but you need to have several businesses and a long term plan so that income can be recurring. With IM potential is the sky

Its definitely possible, you just have to take action.

I see so many people (even experienced marketers) going from promotion to promotion and not focusing on anything.

Pick a method and work your *** off with it

Well I think it's achievable if you have all the right tools and resources in place. But then you need to have multiple online income streams in place and much more traffic that would convert to sales..

Yes, Sure. Just go ahead and work hard first

Good luck

The sky's the limit start at the bottom and work your way up!!

I see some affiliates pushing 20k + a day non stop, so yes it is possible
But you have to be good at media buys!

Of course it's possible. The internet is a BIG place. How long does it take for someone to click on your link? How long does it take a million people to click that same link? You could wake up any morning very wealthy. Wether you do or not depends largely on your actions but all you have to do is turn around and look at the internet.

But why do you need a million dollars?

I have several personal friends and know others that have made over $1 Million + online. Remember, I do live in San Diego and we got Frank Kern, Trey Smith, Mike Koenigs to name a few.
I have hit $150K to $200K the last few years, I did start full time in 2007. It takes hard work...lots of learning and watching webinars, buying many WSO and courses. The main thing to success is mindset....when you start believing in yourself. It can happen fast :-)

The sky is the limit, hard work always pays off

Totally realistic! I did a zero short of that in one weekend but increasing my prices over double (I gave list members a chance to buy it before the price rise and they did...in droves). Then I actually did raise my prices and sold dozens more. Granted, I had a valuable product that actually worked (stock market niche) but the fact remains...the internet is a BIG place and if ever it was truly possible for any average wealth seaker to make a million a year the internet is the place most likely to make it happen. But they have to want it enough and be willing to never stop putting in massive daily effort to get it.

You can do anything you want if you really want to. If it's more important to watch TV then you'll do that.

I heard Eben Pegan aka David DeAngelo makes $20-25 million a year with his internet business. He's launched it selling his Double you dating ebook. He's now coaching people as the greatest Internet Marketing Guru on how to do it. His seminars cost $10,000 for 3 days.

Definitely yes! Just believe in yourself. Whatever you want to do, do it with perseverance and focus.

If you have Sufficient Knowledge, Good money to invest, and Right Attitude. Well! YES!

1million is quite a lot if you think about it, although nothing is impossible!

I know its very possible. Find an niche with a problem, create a product that will help them solve their problem. Run a massive marketing campaign... In a year you will be making over a millon

I really hate "tricks" to making money, selling guru products (frank kern, shoemoney) etc.

Honestly, the best way to always make money is have a product. A service, something that people actually want. It's longer term.

It's why so many affiliates make their own CPA networks.

Can you define "tricks" please? I need to be able to identify a "trick" from a new way, a new method or a new path. I also would love to know how Frank sells "tricks". Is that what you're getting at? He sells "tricks" or he is a "trick"? I'm sure there are millions of people who had products, services or "something people want" who do not "always have money" and in fact have gone quite broke.

What about CPA? What product or service are they providing? Is their CPA link a service or a product? Sorry, just a bit confused and trying to understand your thinking.

Every thing is possible. But most important once you start in the right direction. another
important thing Once you get at the point have some 500 in your list then you JV with big IMers. In this way you are progressing very well and you got a solid base and most important your million dollar is threre for you.

S Husain

Based on the consistent, easily observable data I would have to answer in the affirmative.

Thats quite a big number.

Is it possible...?

yes

Is it likely?

No

I know some people who did. Connections mean a lot yourself, otherwise people will get caught in the act, trying to learn everything, but to do something. Conversely, I know many people who have spent the last 5 years doing nothing but reading.

You can definitely make $1million in a year from internet marketing. Would you make $1million in your first year of internet marketing? Highly unlikely but it's not impossible!

If you really want to make $1million per month you need to change your mindset and have huge goals. Like obnoxious goals so that you start to believe in yourself A LOT!

Next you have to look at $1million as just a number that can be broken down.

• $1,000,000
• 12 months
• 4 weeks in a month
• 7 days in a week

If you divide $1,000,000 by 12 months that's $83,333 per month.

Next you divide $83,333 by 4 weeks, which is $20,833 per week.

Finally you divide $20,833 by 7 days, and you get $2,976 per day.

We'll say that you need to make $3,000 per day every day for a year to make $1,000,000.

When you think of it that way instead of just a huge gigantic number, it seems very attainable, and it is!

You can go about it a lot of ways, but at the end of the day internet marketing is a game of numbers.

Let's say you have a niche site that's converting at 1% for a product that makes you $50 commission every sale.

Now there are two ways you can make more money (other than adsense, selling ad space, etc..we're only focusing on product sales right now)

1. Increase your traffic
2. promote a higher paying product

So if you increase your conversion rate to say 2% you just doubled your income, and if you increase your conversion rate to 3% it just tripled!

Now the next step is to rinse and repeat with quality niche sites. The more competitive the niche the better, because odds are there's money in that market.

Create 5-10 money sites, and you can easily make $3,000 per day.

It really just takes trial, error, and a lot of commitment and the willingness to do UNTIL you get the results you want.

It's definitely possible, and hey if you don't make it to $1million..how's $500,000 sound instead?

Yeah it is possible. 1 Million in 1 year. If you have a website that is noticeable. Or a Social Network like Facebook, Twitter, Flicker etc., or a search like Google, Yahoo, Bing... and most especially if you believe in yourself because in the long run many people is interested of what they are doing but later on all they have to do is anything. Just wasting.

$1,000,000/year with online business is possible!! You need to have a good plan to achieve this goal!

It's easy as pie. It's just the proper mindset, determination, and confidence. But as they've said it takes time. I guess some luck too. Think about it this way. In martial arts there are stunts that they do like breaking-bricks, stones, marbles, ice etc. using their hands, heads, elbows. How did they do it? Practice, being fearless (For sure that hurts!) but the biggest factor is their mindset. They AIM past it. It may not be a good analogy but i hope you'll get the point that i want to convey. Think further.
Dream waaay further..

The million-dollar question is "HOW" correct? my answer would be "Innovation" Think outside-the-box. Don't imitate, innovate. Make something fresh! Anything that you think might interests people. Everybody love's new things correct? Who would want a nokia "3210" model nowadays where everybody have a "Blackberry" or Smart phones with them.


John

we all live in hope.............

Certainly not in your 1st year, as you'll wast quite a bit f time and money finding out what works and what doesn't....... If you make it to the third year in internet marketing then, it's safe to say you're doing something right. You will be more established, likely to had a large email list, quite a few websites generating natural and affiliates sales. It would still be very difficult to make $1m in any calendar year, but certainly not impossible. I reckon only about 2% of IM's make $1m+ a year.

Ian

I am certain it is possible, but it would need a ton of traffic, some great offers, and a targetted list with repeatedly buyer subscribers

yes, it is possible if u have skills, strategies, and luck.

So many have tried to get 1 million on their first year, but unluckily have not succeed, but by relentless effort through years they have discovered the right way to earn millions in 1 year.It's totally a step by step process. No one has got it in just a snap of a finger.

Actually it's not possible. Since Google owns the Internet, they close down your payment processors when you hit $999,999.99

Good luck!

Of course it's possible, but the real question is, is it realistic for you/me? Simple math... $1,000,000 divided by 365 days is $2739.73 per day. Better have a detailed plan and A LOT of help.

Of course its possible. If you are willing to put in the work then anything is possible. Its all about setting up systems and learning how to automate certain tasks so you can spend your time focusing on other areas of your business.

Yes it is possible in internet marketing business.

I do believe it is possible with the necessary amount of commitment, If you stay focused and on task the entire time. Yes! This is a mental business, You must be able o keep a positive mindset

It's possible but I think too many people are interested in quick money and forget the hard work that needs to be done to get there. If you follow threads on warrior, very few have hit 6 figures in one year, or are even there right now!
Wisdom, hard work and some luck will get you there, though one year is a long shot.

A lot of comments and suggestions from warrior members.....really inspired..

paid marketing and product creation I think the fastest ways to make a huge bulk cash...

Yes, it is possible to make 1 million in a year, but it is highly impossible to make 1 million in your first year of internet marketing. It takes some time for people to know about you, your site. Once you are flourished in your job and you plan and implement successful internet marketing strategies then no one can stop you from earning good amount of money.

Everything is possible as long as you are determined. This is certainly possible, but the experience and knowledge will undoubtedly be the determining factor of how you can accomplish this. Not many people to make this your first year. John Reese made this in 18 hours. Yeap! Pretty amazing. I had a domain name and a great company that bought it.

There are proven formulas for making that kind of money.

But I think the question should be...

Is it possible to make $1 million in 1 year in internet marketing while doing things you enjoy doing and spending the amount of time you want to spend when doing them?

Money alone isn't going to make you happy.

One way to make a million in a year is to get a call center that sells high ticket items. Generate your leads with the internet, sell products via internet, then call them up and sell them high ticket items or services. But then you also have to fulfill it.

But who the heck wants to do that? If you do, then cool...

That's the problem though, isn't it?

The more potential there is to make money doing something, the less attractive it is to do... or at least it seems that way.

Think about it...

Doesn't it seem that 90% of people are attracted to building their businesses using the least effective tactics and strategies necessary?

And the less sexy it gets, the more profit potential there is, but the less people want to do it.

making a million isn't imposible, just that you need to work for that ammount of money, nothing comes easy

Of-course you can make $1 million in 1 year... but not in the first year. You'll have to get some bitter experience before that. If you keep on refining your skill by learning from your as well as other's mistakes, you can achieve that level. There is no magic wand. Learn patiently and smartly... Good luck !

Possible.. Yes, Doable, I doubt it.

Its definitely a big deal but not IMPOSSIBLE. One need to take accurate action on time and off course don't afraid to take any RISK.

Of course it is possible, but it takes dedication, something I have lacked. It is all about following through and continue to keep working at your goals.

Noah

Celente, I'll tell you my life story and even tell you for free the key to me making as much as $100M revenue in one year. Most of the people here already said it: dedication to goals, working hard, testing, testing...

..and most importantly being smart. I see too many affiliates make $30k, and turn around and buy a car. I invested most of my money into everything from my retirement to other people's business.

I live out in the Silicone Valley and I see people getting way above the 1 million dollar mark in checks quite often. And we are talking about young kids also.

Now I know that this is Internet Marketing and it's a different ball game but my point is that your level of creativity will go a long way.

And those two markets are not at all that different afterall - you can always create software like some of these "gurus" are doing, or work with a computer/internet catering mindset that delivers something similar as dot com start ups do.

Hope this sparks a few ideas out there.

How is "internet marketing" a different game. Most of the Silicon Valley checks come from internet marketing, interactive advertising..etc..

What do you think Google is? It's an IM company mainly

Pocketing a Million a year? Yes, definitely possible as a seasoned marketer with the knowledge, tested and proven plan and resources. Starting out as a newbie? Chances are very slim to pocket a Million after a year. Personally I think the learning curve tend to be on the steep side. And as stated earlier in the thread some people are still reading after 3 years.

Realistic in your first year? Yep, but you also have one in a million chance.

I would say yes and no. That is possible but it also depends. There are "if's" and "might" that will happen so everything depends on something.

The clients I work with do it all the time.

--- Ross

With hard work you can do anything. If you gave it everything you had you probably could

Yes, it's possible, but it would take some skill, a lot of hard work, and a bit of luck. Not necessarily in that order.

Find yourself an idea or a product that you know can't lose.(Easier said than done, I know) Build yourself a website, with the help of a professional, of course. Get as much traffic to your website as you possibly can. Work day and night to build up your e-mail list with an autoresponder attached. Make it a priority to work your business at least 5 hours a day. Have fun with it and be creative!

Of course, there's more to it than that, but those are the basics.

You may end up spending more money than you had anticipated. But you also might hit that million dollar mark in 1 year.

Go for it!

Leonard

Anything's possible. But I wouldn't hold my breath. I'd agree with the very first response on this post from Regal Content.

Anythings possible, but I think in your first year you wont

Internet marketing provides you a global opportunity to expand your business. If you plan and execute strategically, you can definitely earn $1 million in 1 year.

With extremely hard work, dedication, and a little luck, yes it is completely possible. Haven't you watched Social Network? :p I know it sounds corny but it's true.

Are there actual millionaires on this thread? I think it's silly when people will tell you how to make a $1 million buckaroos, but aren't doing it themselves. Like a successful mentor once told me, "If you want to be rich, you need to hang around those who are rich." That's why I am in the WF

Peace

anything is possible. Im just aiming for 6k in 3 months

Well I guess making 7 figures is a little more common than I would have thought. I suppose a million doesn't have the buying power as it used to but, it still seems like such a massive figure.

Offcourse It's "possible" anything is possible in this universe.
Now with a solid plan it is also very possible in the IM World.

YES... It is possible to make $1 Million in 1 year. I know a few people who have made more than $10 Million in just 1 year. Planning and Execution should be exceptional. Good Luck.

Frankly speaking, you need 3 things to achieve $1m yearly

1. Create a product and have an army of affiliates

2. Media buys

3. Huge list that is highly responsive i.e. like 200,000 strong

At the end of the day, we should just thank God for being alive.

You see It could be done, many have done that, but bear in mind that success can't be attained overnight, I don't want to sound a bit harsh for anyone but most of us, (yeah, including me some time ago) are too focus on making lots and lots and lots of money, We can for sure do that, but it takes learning and time and effort and dedication.

I agree with jasonParker,:
Money alone isn't going to make you happy.

It's how we help change the lives of other people, our families, love ones and ourselves.

Is it possible? What kind of question is this? There are certainly those who do, try alexa's top 50,000 for size.

Yes I know a lot of people who earn $1 million dollars per year. But I guess it all depends on how you do it. If you're a starter it will take years for you to be able to achieve it.

What I really wonder is how many of those who answered "Yes, sure it's possible" are actually millionaires... talking is cheap, but who here does actually walk the talk? That would be a far better indicator on whether making $1M a year is possible or not.

Technically, you could make a million in almost EVERY industry, whether it be internet marketing, ebaying, selling used cars, or even shipping flowers.

It all depends on your drive, determination, SKILL and your ability to invest and scale up once you start achieving a good, profitable formula...expand...

Rod

Would certainly be nice! For a complete noob with no background and terminology down it would be a pretty hard ask I would say. For fast learners the sky is the limit!
