Howdy,

After some hard work on my part , I've finally made a break though in Internet marketing. But , since this is going to be my first payment , shall I say. I have no clue what to invest it in. I'm building my self a new PC , but have about $1000 left. I'm 15 , so don't have much to spend it on.

I would like to get into Social Media (Especially one iPhones , Androids) as I see huge potential in that medium. But true passion lies with coding. But i'm still currently learning.

So , if you were me. How would you invest the money. Please , don't say put "Save" I don't want to yet , I want to turn that that $1000 into $10,000 let's say.

Thanks.

    Get some good quality solo ads - set up a sales funnel to include an offer and possibly a webinar invitation - rinse, repeat to turn that 1k into 10k and build up a nice list in the process. If you did something along those lines and kept growing it then by the time you're just 20 you'd have it made.

    It certainly depends on what you have been successful with in the past.

    If your into coding and want to get into the Iphone app market then social media would definitely be a great channel for your product.

    However I would come up with the app before you worry about promotion.

    I know that doesn't answer your question directly, but I'd need to understand a little more of what you have been doing to give you a more applicable answer.

    Cheers

    PS. Nice job on your breakthrough in IM!

      Yes , But the only problem is... I have no Mac. You need Xcode to compile and submit your applications to Apple. I guess I would have to wait a bit , in till I get my next sum of money. I guess I could do a WSO and get a quick $500 or so and buy a second hand MacBook.

      I freelance , I also started up an SEO Company. The only thing holding me back is School ; after I get home I have Homework , revisions and Tea. This barely leaves anytime to do good work for your clients. I can only usually complete work at the Weekend. Most clients are fine with this , but as I get paid by the hour it's limiting my income.

      I've also thought about , Being a GSP(Game Server Supplier) this is where people buy a server from you. Then you set up the server files. The only drawbacks are the prices of the servers ($450) and my internet. Here in the UK , the best upload speed is 10% of your download. I have a 20MB Down , so I get 2 Up , which is frankly crap.

      But the annoying fact is my School have 100 Up and 200 Down. (Supplied by the Council.) I need around 150 up to run a number of servers. The only way I could get around this is , buying a Dedi server of someone ($100 a Month.) But I'm not sure if I could get any clients to pay for the server , it's a really competitive market. I guess the only way would be to try it out. I did a marketing plan , but I'm not sure if it would work. I could easily fail within the first week.

      But , this is the frustrating fact. Before I can make $$$$ in IM , I need to invest in some expensive hardware and school is holding me back from learning coding and other things.

      I want to go for the Big Bucks. I More than defiantly don't want to be working down KFC as a Saturday Job.

      Thanks! ( Bit of a diluted ramble post , but hey it works I guess.)

    Just to clarify things... When people say save, they don't mean don't touch that money for the next ten years, they are telling you to wait until a good opportunity arises. You dont have to blow your 1000$ today, so carefully examine the possibilities and spend it only if you need to...

    My first thought was buy solo ads, but you need a product
    that's proven to convert, and it needs to be a good match
    for wherever you run the solo, and you should easily start
    multiplying your money.
