I've been lurking here on WF for a while, and trying to soak up as much info as I can, but I haven't pulled the trigger yet. But if someone would be so kind to give away a little insight on how I could make around $1,700 in a week or two.

I have plenty of time to work on any ideas, but I have a very limited amount of funds to invest!

Thanks for your help!

    Considering you're a newbie, I would suggest that you forget about your $1,700 in a week goal. It's not how IM business work. Affiliate marketing is pretty easy as long as you do the proper keyword search and promote something that's selling. I haven't succeeded to pick a profitable niche with low competition yet but I'm still trying...

    If you decide to promote Amazon products, you'll start at 4% commission rate, which is pretty low. You can also promote Clickbank products, in this case you'll get a much higher commission (between 50% and 75%)

    My advice to you is to lower your expectations at first, then scale things up

    Good luck.

    Hi my friend!

    You can start making that kind of money in that kind of time period once you have learned a few basic skills and understanding of how a make money online system truly works.

    If you can learn all these skills in a week then that gives you another week to produce the traffic you'll require in order to see conversions etc etc.

    I am sorry but in order to make that kind of money you have to spend some time learning how everthing works beforehand.

    Maybe you have seen lots of these false promise promotions by marketers who take advantage of people who are looking for a get rich quick scheme.

    You are definitely at the right place to learn how to set up your own profitable online business though and feel free to download one of my FREE reports below to get you started.

    Hope you won't be disheartened by this but I want to be honest with you and not lead you down the garden path my friend.

    Hope this helps and feel free to PM me anytime if you have any burning questions that need answering my friend!!!

    If a NEWBIE can make that kind of money that quickly, you can write a book and sell millions!

    Like the other posters mentioned, there are skills to be learned, technical and non-technical. And with limited funds, you just eliminated paying for traffic and outsourcing, unless you have the skills and connections to wheel and deal.

    Let us know if you pull it off

    Easy peasy. I'll tell you how you can do that:

    1) Go into a busy niche forum [outside the WF] and analyse the most common topics popping up. Make sure that there's money being exchanged in the niche and there already are products catering for it.

    2) Find an 'Expert' in the forum, who has no idea about IM and information products, but a lot of ideas about the niche.

    Tell him you are creating a product and wish to interview him. For his time, you are willing to pay him a royalty fee of 5% [makes you sound like a proper publisher!]. Sometimes they will help you for free, just for the kudos factor!

    3) Figure out how you wish to present the information in a product form: ebook or videos or webinar, etc.

    4) Get product created - do it yourself or hire someone to help you.

    5) Create a website and sales page, using the principles you can pick up from the Copywriting sub-forum here. Again you can outsource this bit. I usually tell my students to create the sales copy before they create the product.

    6) Sign up to JVZoo so you have an affiliate programme to use. Set up a mechanism to deliver your product after the sale.

    7) Go back to the forum, PM the forum owner and ay something like this:

    "Hey Ted! Me and Mr Expert have worked on something that will be beneficial to the members here. You can take a look at my website at xxxx.com. I'm willing to pay you 50% for helping me to promote the product. I see you have xx,xxx registered users and if we can get 1% of them to pick up the product, then you can potentially earn $x,xxx.

    You can help by sending an email out to all registered forum users and also by setting up a banner on your forum. Let me know your thoughts..."

    That's the basic process. Obviously, I can't get too detailed for a hypothetical situation.

    I've used this exact method to make $17,000+ for a days work!

    If you focus and apply the concept above, and fail to make $1700, then I'll pay you the $1700. Deal?

    There you go, you've been challenged! Go out and hit a home run!

    The trick my friend is to find one business model that you like and master it.

    Most newbies see 10 business models, get confused and paralysed by info overload. Don't fall into that trap! Take massive whole-hearted action on just one model to begin with.

      Abul, your strategy is a good one, but to expect a complete beginner to follow that formula to success within 2 weeks is just plain nonsense. Unless you take him by the hand and are there every step of the way through the process, it's not going to happen.

      And, to the op. Get any silly notions out of your head that you will earn $1700 in 2 weeks from a complete stand still, it's just not going to happen. I'm not saying it's not possible, but this is the real world we're living in. This isn't some happy go lucky fairyland you're living in. If it was plausible for a newbie to just pop online and make $1700 in 2 weeks then we'd all be bloody doing it.

      The fact is, 90% of the people trying to make money online, never will. And 99.9999% will never make $1700 or above in their first 2 weeks. Unless you're in the vast minority, you really have to understand that the mindset you currently have is going to go against you in the long run. Nobody worth listening to has ever said that success comes easy. Anyone who tells you that is a fricking liar.

        Thanks for you advice! I'll make sure I get these "silly notions out of my head"...lol And I'll look at the IM business as just that a business and not a quick fix never work again money making scheme.

        Correct, I am making a few assumptions. However, if the Newbie is REALLY hungry and works their butt off, then it can be done. I totally agree that some hand holding may be required.

        I've given enough info in my post to inspire the newbies to start taking ACTION. I've shown that making money from niche marketing isn't rocket science.

        Any advice they might require on their journey are within the pages of this forum.

        As long as a Newbie can come up with a decent idea, there's others who will create your product, write your sales copy and set up your website at reasonable cost.

        Can my plan be implemented within 2 weeks by a complete Newbie? Yes, if they are willing to work 10 hours a day for the next 2 weeks.

    You could try knocking on doors of local companies and selling them websites or SEO services, if you know what you are doing to do that?

    If you have time, dedication and knowledge, you can easily achieve $1700/week goal, not a difficult one but it would certainly involve lots of work. You will need to find the niche you are interested in.

    Build a product. Release it. Send Traffic to it. Put products on the back-end. Build your email list. Market to them.

    There you go. That is the formula.

    Hi there,

    As a newbie try not to soak up all the information out there. You can easily feel overwhelmed with information that you get stuck and don't know what to do. The next thing you know you'll be jumping from one strategy to another or signing up for 5-6 business and making them work at one go. That is the mistake that many newbie do.

    What I would suggest is to get into a mentorship program or get a free ebook about internet marketing. Read around get a strategy and stick to that strategy and make it work. And if you have a lot of time on your hands try free marketing such as social media marketing, forum marketing or article marketing. These strategies are free but require time to get a sale and traffic.
