If You Only Have $1000 To Invest ?

I would leave at least $900 of it in the bank and set up an internet marketing business for under $100, exactly as I did when I started mine.

There wasn't ever a point at which having an extra $900 to invest would have made my income any bigger, faster, more secure or more reliable.

(This was what I started doing, and still do now, if you're curious: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post5721774 ).

Buy a QUALITY site that makes $1,500 a year with proven track record. This may take a bit of time to find but spend time on Flippa and you can find quality. Once you've got that site in your possession you'll consistently have another $125 a month to invest in internet monies - or save and make more purchases in the future.

The most important part about turning internet marketing into a full time position is creating positive cash flow. Doing that from the onset is extremely important and I'd focus exclusively on that, especially if you only have $1,000 to invest.

Dejavu - Now where have i seen this before,
just can't put my finger on it .... :confused:

Not as fast as giving it to one of the "coaches" who are going to PM them.

Here is my advice:

Buy Video creation soft + Private Proxies + Do some research on peoples needs on YouTube they do.

And do PPD/CPA with it and rank your videos on Google to get targeted traffic > it will convet into $$$

Here will be cost i think:

Video soft: $50-100 One time
Dedicated ips $20-30 a month
SEO tool : $100-150 One time ( OR Do SEO manually at first )

This is one of the hottest thing for Beginners just need patients and research and hard work it will be serious money

Well, like the above guy said, youtube is usually a good place to get started.

The problem is, you need to WORK and RESEARCH before you INVEST.

I've seen tons of people invest, without doing the required work / research / testing, and they have lost large sums of money.

So I'd spend that money on research. That means start small, run microtests, study keywords, find what people are buying, find keywords people aren't targeting, then slowly start dripping money into the equation.

You don't have a lot of money, so the formula would look something like this

85% work + 15% investing (small amounts).

After a few months, you discover good keywords, good niches, what type of content converts best, etc etc.

Then the equation turns to 50% work + 50% investing.

Then you get more data, more experience, more information.
And you can start outsourcing a lot more.

So the formula becomes 25% work + 75% investing.

Fundamentally speaking, if you only have $1000, and have no idea where to spend it, then you need to do research. There's no other way around it. And since you can go broke doing research, you need to invest that money SLOW.

If you outsource everything from day 1, with no idea of what works, if you don't have the testing and data to back up your investments, as always, you're ****ed.

buy a good internet marketing course or coaching membership. Learn how to make money online from professionals and then invest the rest into your own online business.

If you asking the question then its obvious you do not have a plan.

Failing to plan is planning to fail, so get a hold of someone who has the type of life you want to have and spend some time and money learning from them.

To many people in this forum forget the value of learning and sometimes you have to pay for that.

Make sure the learning leads to a plan which you will both enjoy following and will be able to consistently keep following.

I ran my own 100k+ member sites, tried blogging and niche sites but what really got me consistently going is building a unique product of my own. That was my calling... but I had to spend some time and money on the other things to learn what would make me happy.

Bottom line, put half aside for your true calling, spend the rest learning from the best in different fields to find out what really works FOR YOU.

Facebook advertising using the new Power Editor - easy peasy!

It's really depends on your skills.

For example...for me, Alexa advice is not relevant at all. If i would listen to it, i would never make any money online (but it's just me, i am sure it will work wonders for many others).
If you have no writing/copyrighting skills (many don't have those, even native speakers), i would spend most of the budget, to outsource it.
But, you need to have a plan first.
Choose the direction
And than, you will get way more specific answers to your question.

Put it in your savings account until you have more.

If I had 1,000 to invest and I knew what I was doing. I would hire a virtual assistant, a general va for about 250 a month and do launch's. She would sorry or he would make 2 products a week with complete jvpage sales page ect. I would promote.

If I didn't know what to do I would invest in a email list with a better user friendly face.

Or use it to learn the business and get my feet drenched in knowledge.

My suggestion is:

1) to figure out what you're already really good at.

2) find other people who are marketing those services.

3) model what they're doing / their marketing, their price structure, (their quality) you at least have to match their quality if you're going to be charging the same prices, so you'll want to position yourself as unique and different by adding something they don't.

4) then use your money to market your services; offer 5-10 people free service or a reduced rate so you can get some testimonials or reviews

5) Make profiles on freelance websites and actively look for work offering your services.

and if you don't have any skills; then buy some coaching / training that seems interesting to you ...

Fellas, we've got a live one! Cue the sigs promising "the best $999 investment you'll ever make."

Seriously, though, having $1,000 to invest is in some ways more problematic than having $50 to invest. When you have little to invest, you tend to be more careful with your spending, scrutinizing offers and so forth.

I recommend getting a domain, some shared hosting that offers unlimited domains, and a list. Don't bother throwing money at anything else until you're making money. Hell, you can even get by without paying for those three things.

Invest that money into a steady stock like Johnson and Johnson. Keep reinvesting the dividends you get each month.

$1000 is nothing without knowledge. Don't do anything with this amount in case you have it, because you will lose it.

Study many posts in this forum until you will feel that you know how to make a smart business plan. Then you will know how to spend your money without having to ask anyone.

I will save half of the money or maybe more than that and invest some of the money in domain parking. Buy some good domains and you can earn a lot of money from it by selling them on Flippa.

Go For Internet Online Marketing if u have any Question Do let me Know Elegant

If I could start all over again as a newbie and had $1000 to invest, I will definitely find myself a good mentor and NOT buy every product out there!

it really depends on 2 things

if you already have a product and a squeeze page then you can use some solo ads to
build your list and tweak your funnel as you go

if you don't already have a product then invest some of your money into creating and setting up some fan pages and use fb ads to drive traffic to your fan page to build a following and then monetize accordingly

Every suggestion I've read amounts to scraping the bottom of the barrel for leads, it will take a VERY long time to produce any significant income this way. Unless you're going to start an eCommerce site and have the time to properly grow it and the knowledge of how to re-engage those customers so they buy from you again and again, you are better off delivering pizza or something in your spare time. - You'll make more in a day doing that, and it's a guaranteed paycheck, until you've saved up enough to take this seriously.

Create a product and squeeze page and sales funnel and drive "paid" traffic to it....... quickest way to get results......obviously it needs to be a great product at a reasonable price point
