Help For Newbies!

Hello Warriors,

Several years ago I was searching for a means to support myself and the family with an online business. I bought every WSO available, lost $1000's on CPA, lost many hours if not years of time that I could have spent with the wife and kids. Don't get me wrong, I was self employed and "doing well". However, "doing well" meant putting in 14+ hours per day 7 days per week. I had 1 week of vacation per year but was still tied to the cell phone during the vacation in case of emergencies and there always was an emergency. I have been supporting myself since age 17 (now 45). With the help of my wife of 25 years, I put myself thru college with a degree in Physics while working a full time job. I worked for a fortune 500 company out of college and than a private company after that, however, my passion has always been quitting my "real job" and working for myself online. I have made some great real estate investments in the last 20 years which continue to pay me well. I am finally in a position to quit my "real job". My goal now is to start a website that helps motivated newbies to do the same. So my question to all the newbie warriors is "What kind of website would you like to see that truly helps you make it online"? What information would you like from a website to help you on your quest to say bye to your boss? Now that I have time, I would like to start a website that provides free information to newbies, information that will cost zero dollars and be better than any WSO. I am not promising anything other than I will do my best to provide the most honest and genuine information that I have available. Of course, you will have to come with a passion of yourown and be able to run with the information to make it work for you. I am not looking to make any money by providing the information. The best information I have received has been provided right here on this forum for free. MOST of the WSO's I have bought have been totally garbage. All I am asking is "How Can I Help You Make It? I need you to help me help you! Nothing more, nothing less! I started making some good money online just a few years ago and their doesn't seem to be a real secret to success other than a clear passion, dedication and hard work. PLEASE HELP ME HELP YOU!

Greatful Warrior!

    "MOST of the WSO's I have bought have been totally garbage."

    I would have to politely disagree. (And no I don't have a WSO.)

    But I think the best thing you could do to help is make good videos, lots of people learn fast with video.

    Are you making a good income online? If you are, then providing information on how you do it will be good.

    What challenges did you run into yourself? most probably these are the same challenges being faced by those you are targeting. Find out how to overcome these and make an income online then give advice and counsel those who are stuck. I find it easier helping someone with a problem i personally experienced because it becomes easier to relate with that person.

    Hi,
    This is the right place for me to get my things cleared. I am a newbie here and trying hard to learn the techniques to earn living online(got really frustrated of my day job). Seeing at the threads of people who say they make five to six figure income online I always wonder how is it possible and why I have no sight of what to do and where to go to achieve this or atleast reach near it.. My opinion would be share your experiences ie from where you started, how did you proceeded and how you reached your goal. Which all paths to follow. The do'es and don'ts. Because even I am tired of buying ebooks and other stuffs and at the end getting disappointed of seeing no results.. So seriously I am looking to start my online journey. But stuck at the beginning itself since I am not getting which way to go in, what methods to follow and etc etc.. So topics you may cover is "which are the best methods to start off with", "How to start will low investment" and so on.. Also I am not a person who dreams for getting rich overnight. But would like to work hard and see the results....
    So will be curiously waiting for your website to be launched to lead the newbies like me in a right path...

    Thanks

    Hi,

    With all this knowledge & experience behind you you'll be
    able to easily create an awesome product that can help newcomers.

    I personally wouldn't say that all WSO's are garbage.

    I have had the pleasure of learning tons of useful information that has
    helped me to go from zero to making sales every single day with
    list building.

    I think that there are that many of them you aren't going to get
    it right every time.

    You could gather up as much information as possible, select the best
    of the best & use that to create your own information around.

    Sounds like you are serious and that will get you to where you want to be
    if you know that you are willing to pursue until you see results.

    Good luck with your journey my friend.

    Regards
    Gavin

    I would take each step that you take and each small success that you experience and put it into a video.

    That way, you let your future students know what you have done that worked and all the things that did not work.

      Very cool idea. Personally, I've always wanted to see a documentary style video on the creation of a web business that shows these successes, failures and learning points in a "fast forwarded" styled sequence.

    I haven't bought many WSO's. Mainly due to the fact that everything tries to upsell you a different product and before you know it, you've landed yourself in a web of "Neccesary products" you need to buy before the strategy works.

    I'm however not quite sure what we're discussing here?

    I think you have a GREAT IDEA - I would probably do video's and break it down to different knowledge levels for the Newbies. Keep it very simple, easy to follow, and understand.
