I'm Successful... I'll Help You Be Too! (Part One)

5 replies
Hey everyone,

So I am back from indoctrination week, and I must say it was a great experience. Like I said in a previous thread, it involved lots of soul searching and introspective thought. But that is unrelated.

PLEASE READ THIS WHOLE THREAD. SERIOUSLY.

I want to take an unorthodox approach to making you successful. When you see what I am doing, I have no doubt that you will want to click the back button and read other posts... instead, I am asking you to PLEASE trust me.

If you trust what I am doing, you WILL be successful.

In the upcoming weeks, I will be posting a series of threads that go over things that I "realized" that I believe gave me the success that I have now. I feel that if people can come to terms with those questions, they WILL be successful. Nothing else matters.

The first question:

"WHY DO YOU WANT TO START INTERNET MARKETING?"

This may seem like a stupid question, but it ISN'T. As many of you may know, I started internet marketing when I was 14 years old because I really wanted to buy my mother a house. It is what drove me all those nights when I wanted to give up, when I was crying thinking I would never succeed.

What I have noticed, is that there are two kinds of IMers... The kinds that just "want to be rich" and the rest. The kind that solely want to be rich normally stop after a few weeks, or months. They stop when they decide it is too hard.

The rest have other reasons. Maybe they want to buy a house, maybe they want the perfect wedding with their fiance, maybe they want to have more time with their family, maybe they want to send their children to college.... Do you see what I mean?

Having a purpose to being successful will make you successful.

Ill go over the other things later, but until then....

TRUST ME:

Do what I did when I started.... Make a list of ALL the reasons why you want... NEED... to succeed. Dont do it in one sitting, do it in two or three. Then put it right above your monitor.

You WILL be successful. I promise.

    This is actually a very discouraging statement. I have done all thee above, but I am struggling. After one month of building 5 websites and doing a lot of article marketing, I sit on 500 HOPS spanning 5 niches with only 4 sales and 1 refund.

    I am getting very tired staying up all night writing articles, and just seeing a trickle of sales for my work. I keep trying to think positive, but it is very, very difficult.

    So, having purpose is not enough to make me successful, I dont guess...maybe something is wrong with me.

      You arent happy with "only four sales?"

      I want to put that in perspective for you... in one month you made 4 sales...

      It took me about half a year to make my first penny.

      If you look around, you'll see hordes of people who envy you more than you will EVER understand, I think, since you make "only" four sales in a month.

      It took me about 6 months to make a sale for something like 22.50

      You have it good, and you are on your way there... Don't be discouraged... you're on the right track if you are making "a few" sales.

    Blatant self-promotional post. Start a WF blog if you want to do this kind of thing.

      Having known Ali and remembering him from a couple of years back, I highly doubt this will be blatant self promotion. He said a few weeks back that he wants to give back to Warriors for all the help he had when he was younger. Perhaps you shouldn't jump to conclusions just yet Ken.

      Ken,

      I dont really know how it is blatant self promotion...

      Fact of the matter is that I wanted to get people to LOOK at this thread in order to learn... That title is the best one possible... it would make people think

      "If he is doing it, I should too... what do I have to lose?"

      What I am going to be posting here is sort of the same way the "big-dogs" that held my hand through the beginning talked to me... They made me do some of the same things I will ask you to do... and I really do believe that it is one of the major reasons I am where I am now...

      Thanks for your input though...
