Choosing what business plan that fit you most will be one of the wise first step I think..

Get access to the war room and start reading.

Watch posts here and when you see a post someone that looks like they know what they are doing check out their past posts.

Most of all, once you get an idea of a method that someone is using, go with it.

don't keep reading

don't keep learning

don't over analyze

Anything you choose will gain you skill that will eventually get you to your money.

You are not gaining skill if you are reading, learning.

You are gaining skill by doing.

Break it down and get successful at the parts.

Don't worry about money right now.

1. traffic, learn how to generate traffic through whatever means you have at your disposal. Social traffic, article writing and submitting to your blog, submitting to article directories, etc. etc.

2. platform. You need someplace to make your offer. I recommend you grab a domain name, setup a wordpress blog and use that as your platform. It's flexible and it's a chameleon. It has been twisted and turned into any configuration you could ever want from a platform.

3. monetize. push affiliate products or create your own. At first, it doesn't matter, pick anything and run with it. You can always changet later once you feel you have squeazed all you can out of one.

Again, don't wait to start. Start now. Learn, take action, take action, take action...repeat.


Get the money thing out of your head. Money will come later.

Follow your passion, it's magnetic and you will gain a following the more of it you have. Post youtube videos, build a blog, do it all.

Have fun.

This is where you can go:

Figure out how to make a squeeze page... If you can't retain your traffic.. nothing else matters.

It's really tough to start out. Everybody has great ideas and they're all conflicting. I would say to read all the posts for a week so you get an idea of all the great ideas out there. And then start following your 5 favorite people, ignore the rest. And do the thing that your fav-5 recommend the most in common.

I agree that the War Room is a solid investment. If you decide to join, sort the threads by rating to get the five star rated ones at the top, and begin reading.

Before you dive into a project blind, you should first familiarize yourself with different methods, and pick what you think is the best fit for your interests and skills. After you decide what that is, go deeper into that subject matter and formulate your plan of attack. THEN get to work. (but don't allow yourself to suffer the paralysis of analysis)

Welcome to the Warrior Forum and best of luck to you.

the more important thing after learning methods is to make plans and goals for your project.

Well, if you're writing an ebook already, my first question would be what is it on and have you already chosen what you're writing about as your niche?

If so have you researched the niche to see if it's profitable?

Thanks for all the replies guys!

I'll give a bit of a more in-depth introduction now that I am not pressed for time.

I taught myself how to use Word Press and have a blog launched already. This blog is about life hacks and some ruminations on life that I have. It also has my long term goals, bucket list stuff, and some accounts of the hilarious situations I find myself in.

I am using this as a launching pad for my desire to write, and for my eBook I am writing.

The eBook is a basic guide to self-defense: "The Beginner's Guide to Self Defense" - I am using my 6 years of wrestling (D1, and High School), and three years of Muay Thai and Jiu Jitsu to make a how to.

Its going to have the basics on striking, grappling, and mentality and other nifty things. I think its profitable because I see some books out there that are "self defense guides", but they are not well put together.

Once again, thanks for all the help! I can tell I'm gonna like this place .

P.S. New War Room member here

welcome to wf. since you are new, try to read and scan threads and study them. surely, you'll learn something valuable.

Thanks for the help everyone. I used my War Room subscription to join some free groups that teach the basics. It looks like I am going to try my hand at affiliate marketing among other things.

Aka set up a bunch of different blogs, and put affiliate links in there for each one.

Tomorrow starts the learning processs - although I will continue with my eBook to.

Focus on choosing a niche you are passionate about and that is profitable. Focus on building a list, and providing valuable content to your readers. Then try your hand at affiliate marketing and see if that works out for you.

My advice - create a list as soon as you can do. That's where you will get 'repeat business', and so should be where the money will come from.

Creating your own product is a great start - you're definitely going to need a list for that!

You probably need to think about what your goals are - both short and long term - plan for that. Break the goals down, and then at the lowest level of granularity you will have an action plan. Something you can do day in and day out, and know that you're heading where you want to.

The other thing I'd say is to get into it - make some mistakes, and learn from them. The way you're going is a great start - keep an eye on what other people are doing, and find out if you can copy it.

Taking action sounds a bit cliche, but if you don't take action, you can't make mistakes, you won't learn, and you won't get anywhere further than where you currently are.

You do also have to be careful with how you set up your business - so that you don't leave yourself open legally, so see an accountant for that. In fact having an accountant is a good idea anyway.

The best way to start with a blog or something like this. You have nice youtube video. You can check it out also -

With everyone saying make a list - I'm gathering you mean get an email list together? Although, how can you turn affiliate programs into repeat business from people unless they are paying monthly?

Hi everyone,

I am also new to the warrior forum, but have been making money online since I was let go from my news reporting job in August of 2012. I like having the freedom to work with my OWN clients and essentially determine how much $ I want to make every week. Right now I write articles, Ebooks, and reviews but have heard there are easier methods to make a solid stream of income if you're a talented writer. Thanks for being such a receptive community. Also if anyone knows where I can find sites that allow guests posts (PR2 and UP WRITTEN IN QUALITY ENGLISH) PLEASE LET ME KNOW:-) Grimbo- we should touch base as well:-)

At this stage of your IM career, it's going to be super tempting to devour every marketing guide you can get your hands on. Although learning is great, it's this very habit that holds most people from seeing success. They jump from one manual to the next, not implementing anything they read.

So I'd say pick a resource. Read it. Implement everything you learn, and THEN move on to the next resource.

I'm a firm believer of for every hour I spend reading, I spend 3 hours practicing (Something I learned from my time in the "pick up" community) - and Michelle, that sounds like a fabulous idea! Shoot me a private message!

Welcome Grimbo. You've got a blog going which is great.

Do you have an email marketing service? If so, have you been focusing on building a list?

Build a list immediately...whilst you are figuring everything out...

Llwyddiant!

Joe

If I were you I would focus on building a list, continuing to write on your blog, and sell your own products. By building a list you will be able to build yourself a passive long term income.

I still need to figure out how to build it - and I am also probably going to switch from GetResponse to aWeber. GetResponse isn't sending my first email in the series, and is not responding to my tickets for help.

Is there an easy way to transfer my follow-ups to a different service?

Thanks for continuing to help guys!

I have hit the ground running with blog (On Self-Confidence, mentalities, and some other ruminations that are meant to be thought provoking and spark debates.

I need to find ways to build my email list and pull more traffic still.

Keep learning, reading, and the most important of all is testing what you have learning to make sure what you are learning works. Then tweak it to fit your business..

Not here mate you will get sucked onto a Facebook like daze making endless posts and giving advice on stuff you have no real experience of

My opinion is that you save some cash get a really good mentor by reputation and proof of success like Eban Pagen who will give you a foundation that you can build upon
