All Change for the Affiliate Better

Hi Folks, it has been deemed that I am too dangerous to be allowed on other web sites – I give free advice – Yes I know it is a novel idea but I get thrown out for doing it. So if any of the 500 group wondered where I have been – chucked out as we say in the UK.

So, lets dedicate this site to Peace – only rule and within this rule we can help each other get to where we want to go – making money for ourselves.

I have found some useful advice that I will will be putting up to help in various corners of the site.

I will not feel that advice is a direct shot at my manhood (which I don’t have so that is probably why I don’t mind critisism) and you have to put up with the fact that I caint speel.

I am learning how this particular blog works as it is non standard but I hope by the end of today – Lundi Vengt Tois – sorry Monday 23rd that I should have it up and running.

Looking forward to seeing some 500 members.

Common Sense in Affiliate Marketing

I did not write this, I copied it from a newsletter and I have put their details on the bottom with no affiliate link.

Sometimes there is good advice and sometimes you need to print it out and digest it.  My questions always on my blog – WHO ARE YOU WORKING FOR?

This is from two brothers who work and make a lot of money. This is their ethos on how to make money. This is mine for 2009. I will not be using them as I already have my mentor site and my very relaxed mentor. It has taken me 3 years and an amazingly awful expensive course to make me realise that it is in your head, not your wallet.

Hi Di,

Geez, we are sure getting tired of saying the same things over and
over to people that want to succeed…

Like simple mathematics, there is a elementary equation that all
successful people (including ourselves) follow.  Today we are going
to tell you what these are, and if you don’t have all the pieces of
the equation, you should start working on them.

Have you ever hit a dead end when you have tried to reach success?
Have you ever thought that you were on the right track to success
only to have everything lifted from under you?  How is success
created?  In particular, how can you become successful within the
Internet marketing realm?

We created our own success. Nothing was given to us.  No one handed
us a business plan on how to become an expert at Internet
marketing.  In fact, no one even lent us a hand to tell us how to
succeed. So how did we manage to go from nothing (really, Kyle used
his girlfriends credit card to get started), to the big bad Wealthy
Affiliates?

Because we are abnormal geniuses who were born with more powerful
brains than others!

Yeah right, we are no different than you!  We have failed at things
just like you and we have definitely had our share of crappy jobs
like YOU!  If you have ever planted trees or sanded rust off of an
old, broken down barge, you will know what we are talking about!
Prior to Internet marketing we have done some of the most
unrewarding jobs out there.

Although we do come up with some profitable ideas, being “better
than others” is not what got us to where we are at today.  A simple
formula helped us achieve this success, and  many other successful
entrepreneurs will agree that this formula is what helped them
achieve success as well.

Work + Attitude + Goals = Success

WAG = S

Work (The W)
———————————-
If you do not know how to work hard or are not willing to work
hard, then Internet marketing (or owning any business for that
matter) is not for you.   You know the old saying, “hard work pays
off”…well, this saying holds true for any business and if you are
willing to work hard, you have  a future ahead of you.

You may be saying “I already work my butt off, but why I am not
hugely successful”.  The reason is that you are likely working hard
for someone else than working hard for yourself.  If you applied
these same blood, sweat and elbow grease towards your OWN business,
the rewards and the profit potential are much greater.

If you have good work ethics you can achieve success regardless of
your situation.  If you don’t want to work hard, then success is
just not for you.

Can you work hard?

Attitude (THE A)

———————————-
We’ve have had many bad days, and sometimes weeks, but we are not
afraid to fail.  However, you need to be able to keep a winning,
positive attitude during the worst of times.  It is easy to be
happy when things are going well, but true success comes when you
can remain positive in the worst of times.

People love to spread negative news.  Watch the nightly news and
you will see what we mean.  Someone died…our economy is
floundering…business are failing…people are losing their
homes…someone got robbed!!! Where are all the feel good stories?

You have to make the most of everything and your attitude will take
you a long ways.  Your attitude is conveyed in all your work,
whether it be a website’s content, and article or your customer
support.  Being able to set aside a bad day or bad month and learn
from your mistakes is a major component to Internet marketing
success.

Can you keep a positive attitude?

Goals (THE G)
———————————-
We started with small advertising budgets and because of that, we
set small goals.  We believed that if you could generate any sort
of profit, then you could duplicate this success and scale your
business to earn more profits.

If you look at Internet marketing with the mind set that you have
to make $500 per day within the first week, you are just setting
yourself up for disappointment and failure. Why not try to make
$30/day, or even $10/day, and then work towards duplicating your
success?

It’s important to take baby steps and start with realistic goals.
When you are a beginner you need to realize that although your big
goals (the $500/day) should be on the radar, you should be working
towards the shorter term, more achievable goals.

Set your own small goals and work toward bigger goals while keeping
in mind your $500/day goal as motivation.  You need to reach base
camp before you can reach the pinnacle of the mountain!

Can you set small goals?

Take the next step and become that next success story
Take it easy,
