The Online Money Making Method That You Want(ed) To Keep To Yourself

31 replies
We have made the Internet the enormous universe that it is now, which paved way to gazillions of online money making techniques. There's just so many my head spins off its hinges just browsing through a few of them.

We are all here to make money, and a lot of you have been and are successful in making making money online, but I am curious to know:

What is your most favorite way/ technique/ method?

and

Have you come across a really unique and interesting method that you did not think would work, but did?

    Shhhh don't tell anyone but you need to build an email list.

    Obviously I am joking I share this with everyone

    There's no secrets besides the basics:

    1.Build an email list.

    2.Create a product or products.

    3. Start a blog, or website it's an asset.

    4. Learn all you can and keep learning because noone knows everything.

    5. Work your butt off until you get to where you want to be with your business and with life in general This business is not for lazy ---- you have to work until you get to where you wanna be then you can work less and less to maintain your earnings.

    My favorite method? It's determination. When I was starting out it all seemed very confusing and hard. I wasnt making any money for almost a year. I decided to not give up and eventually money started to pile up. It doesn't really matter what method you pick as long as you are determined do it right even if you don't get results right away. And if it fails anyway then you pick something else and do it even better. Something will work eventually I promise
    I did use some online training programs at the beginning to get me started but eventually you have to go on your own.

    Hope this helps

      I have to agree with you,You have to complete what you start.I also jumped from one shiny object to another,and was a failure at my attempted online business.
      Now after a 2 year layoff, I joined the quick start challenge,and will make an effort to complete this 4 week challenge to the end and beyond.

    No secret method: find your calling. Provide good service, be good to your clients (if you're having clients). Keep on working/learning. Determination and hard work are the keys to success.

    There is no secret recipe. All you need is willpower and motivation. What's the big point starting a project if you can't finish it. You know what I mean? All you need is the motivation to carry on til the end. If you do not succeed, it doesn't mean you failed, it just means you found one way that doesn't make you money.

    Nevertheless. a list is an important asset in the world of internet marketing. It helps build relations with your audience and can help you make a lot of money due to this trust you have built. Another way I always finds that works is offline marketing.

    I find an offer on ClickBank that looks good in any niche. I make a site around it with an email submit (see how important it is to build a list) then after they sign up, I redirect them to the offer. If they do not purchase straight away, I resell to them via the email list. To get the traffic, I get flyers made and hire some guy to pass them around. It works really well because my list reached 800 in a couple of hours. I made $2300 that week selling the product.

    Focus, hard work, discipline, consistency, and perserverance. I think anyone that has ever been a coach will agree that the ideal student has all those traits. If you're getting started online and you have all those traits, you're a success story waiting to happen.

    You also need the right business model and the right training and you're ready to go. There are so many business models that work so it's hard to say which one is better than the other, but if you have the traits I listed above, you will be successful regardless of what business model you choose.

    List + networking!

    About list, warriors know about it. List = money!

    If you have a network of people in your business, you can have a passive income.

    The ability to communicate with "hot" prospects on demand is ultimately more valuable than an email list.

    An email list, however, is often the best way to accomplish that.

    Hi Andrea,

    Great to see another S'porean in Warrior Forum.

    My favourite ways of marketing are article marketing, blogging, classified advertising, PDF marketing (for free reports to give away to my subscribers) and video marketing on Youtube.

    They are free though they are not the quickiest way to generate income.

    Just learnt from Dean Holland after joining his Quick Start Challenge of 4 more methods I intend to try.

    They are blog commenting, facebook and solo ads.

    As well as forum marketing in sites like this.

    Not just internet marketing but in other niches as well.

    I've just hired a programmer to put an auction site together where people can auction off body parts. I hear spleens are bringing a couple of grand.

    Really, my method is publishing books for Kindle and occasionally, one outside of the Kindle marketplace.

    Here's a really cool idea for someone who might want to run with it. Set up a classified ad site (or auction site) where instead of posting what you've got for sale, you post what you want. Then people who have that item or service can bid on providing it for you. Could be huge.

    Outsource most of your work to Fiverr, you pay $5 for some tasks
    that would take up your precious time. I have saved a lot of
    time and money doing that. I then used the time saved to do
    much more things in the meantime.
    The other methods i am keeping as a secret to myself LOL

    As for ideas that I didn't think would work but did...my #1 method is a twist on a model a lot of people use that I thought would be a waste of my time but I gave it a shot anyway.

    After 2 years, I can honestly say, it's the easiest money I've ever made.

    Here's the secret...

    HELP people, don't SELL people.

    Also, creating great products and promoting/suggesting great products via list building/affiliates to them.

    Stick to the KISS method: Keep It Simple Stupid...and get to work.

    Iv found building websites to be very profitable. I build the kind of websites which make passive income, so when it's built and ranked, I don't need to do further work. I just need to update the plugins every so often. Normally I would use Adsense and Amazon. Another great thing about these kind of sites, is that you can sell them for a lot too.

    If you can find any low comp keywords with some nice monthly searches, go build a site around that keyword and add a few pages, rank it. Seems to work as long as the content is unique and if you take it easy with link building.

        There are simply NO SECRETS. Everything's in front of our eyes. At the end of the day success depends on how creative you can get and make the most of available resources.

        For example, you could use scrapebox to connect with webmasters and offer your services. Now we all know what SB is, but few use it in the above mentioned way! So, its not about finding the Pandora's Box - its about making the best use of what you have.

    Yes, word of mouth. Everyone has a wife, husband, girlfriend, boyfriend, daughter, son, sister, brother, or friend who starts caring about your work when they see its positive results.

    I didn't think it could work online, but it does. This was a surprise for me.

      My marketing method is highly leveraged, by first establishing strong business relationships with influencers and decision-makers within the niches I'm targeting.

      This is accomplished mostly through writing articles on a regular basis for high-visibility publications which already are targeting my reading audience.

      An early initial surprise in using this method was that offline publications often have more drawing power for high-end markets than online outlets.

    There is no secret to this method of making money online. Okay if you want to call it a secret it's ACTION! You have to be consistant in what you are doing. Know your product and tell it like it is. Keep blogging and helping people. Focus on building a relationship with your audience first then promote. Once you have a like and trust relationship with YOUR LIST and AUDIENCE people will start buying from you without you asking. Remember give first and ask second!

    Dedication.

    Seen so many good freelance writers quit because something got in the way.

    Whether it be family, or not having enough free time.

    If you're going to try to be successful freelance writer, or being successful at ANYTHING, including IM, you have to be dedicated.

    Without it, you're just another leaf in the wind.

    Here is a great place to get the sharing. I learned something on this forum.
    OK, every one may have their specials. but most of them will have the same characters. hard-working, creative, learning , thinking and insist on what you doing. And sometimes we need make some changes according to the currect situation.

    I'll tell you the secret
    • Find a market with a desperate problem
    • Find a product or create a product that can solve the problem
    • Promote
    All the other things pale in comparison to the importance of finding that starving crowd.

    You don't believe it? Then imagine this scenario. You have at your disposal the world's best marketing specialists. These are the guys who can design the most alluring websites, write the most literary text, and put up the most eye-catching images.

    If that's not enough, you can even add the world's best closers, who can cajole almost everyone into buying stuff. With that kind of talent by your side, then it's inevitable that you'll sell a lot of stuff.

    It's like you're selling to a crowd by offering a lot of tasty treats like lobsters and steak, all cooked to perfection and joined by a great glass of wine. You can also offer lots of mouthwatering desserts that are sure to tempt anyone out of their diet from just their looks alone.

    Maybe you can design an impressive menu by describing the dishes you offer in words that can win the Nobel Prize for Literature. You can even sweeten the deal by lowering your prices.

    With all that preparation, you're bound to make some sales. But if you are offering these treats to a crowd that's already eaten their fill, then you probably won't be able to sell to all of them.

    But with a starving crowd, being the one person with the ability to offer them the food they need can make you outsell all those marketing experts and closers. People who are starving don't just want food, they absolutely need it.

    So you don't even have to work all that hard to get them to buy the food you're offering. You don't have to sweet-talk them at all, because they will be clamoring for your food, and fighting others for the chance to buy the food you're offering.

    The food you're offering doesn't have to be the best lobster or steak. They can just be a simple burger you got from a greasy fast food joint. It doesn't have to be elaborately cooked and prepared at all.

    You can actually offer them a two-day old burger, and it won't even matter if there are a few bites on it here and there. And of course you don't have to lower your price for them to buy your stuff.

    You can even charge them 10 times of what the burger actually is worth, and they won't complain. If you give a starving crowd the food they need, you can make them pay a lot of money--and they'll thank you for it!

    I know the answer is little long but I'm sure it helps

    Wow. I like this very much. The secret is taking action. But you cant act if there is no problem. First find a gap, a problem, a shortage then come up with a strategy to feel this gaps.Always update yourself, never stop learning, be unique, provide quality, ensure safety, make them fall in love with you,educate them, create a mutual relationship with them and many more strategies. after doing all this and many more as said by the warriors, enjoy your hard work results but dont forget there is competition. always be ahead of your competitors. Thank you
