Hi, Before I get started I wanted to say, I know there is no EASY way to make money and it all takes hard work. I'm not looking for a get rich scheme. I'm looking for a way to learn internet marketing and help that benefit my income. I've tried many affiliate marketing or (MLM) companies and haven't found my place. I was a member at Empower Network but was spending so much money monthly that I couldn't afford it. I understand the ins and outs of affiliate marketing and I wouldn't say I'm a complete newbie. -Get traffic -Get traffic to squeeze page -Have them put in there email address -Convert Leads to sales through email marketing I understand the steps. I know how to setup A weber and have follow up emails. I've gone through it all but I feel like I'm stuck. What is a better cost effective method to get start even just earning a little money a month? I would literally be happy if I started out just making 300-500 dollars per month. I feel as if once I understand the process and learn then I will be able to duplicate and just earn more money. Any suggestions about how you got through your barrier and start making money online through affiliate marketing? Any books or sites that can help me learn these steps? Like I said, Im not looking for a get rich scheme. I'm willing to stay up late at night and work my ass off if it can benefit me in the future. Im willing to read and apply anything I need to do. Im just at the point where I've tried so many things and haven't gotten any results. Any suggestions please? Thank you so much
Yes, Google has inadvertently been "killing" the network marketing business for a few years now with their anti-spam algorithm updates. Getting free traffic to a squeeze page is virtually impossible anymore. Paid traffic is expensive. What should MLMers do? Nobody really knows. I am sure you will get a few responses here about social media, blog, forum postings, blah, blah, blah like you don't know all of that already. The only thing I was going to ask you, have you tried craigslist? Like for real. I tried it in the past and was able to drive a significant amount of traffic to one of my pages. It's tricky, since they block accounts and postings left and right. But if you can stick 10-15 ads per day in the categories relevant to your page content you may get a few leads that will convert.
Have you tried finding a legitimate program where it can also be used to build your business? Most programs like Empower are created as such that the only way to earn is to sell it to others. It makes a difference because such programs often have a genuine community of support and you are being mentored by people who have the right values. I hate it when you see a whole bunch of them pushing products.
I have some pool and spa repair kits that we make in house, its a growing business , we need affiliates who are hard workers and want to make cash.
Not sure if this is exactly what I'm looking for. Being I've had troubles selling empower products and others in the past
what are you looking for? I can recommend other things, ......there is no easy money, What ever you pick, its going to take 14 months before you draw a good profit
Im just looking for somewhere to start out where I can be an affiliate with high converting commissions and not spend a lot of money doing this. With a product that will convert and sell.
Ill check it out. I just don't know where to start. So create a blog and sell host gator products through a leads page on it?
I would 1) Create a brand for yourself i.e. UncleBillsHostingReviews 2) Then I would get that on twitter , facebook, keek, youtube, wordpress, ireport etc ( example, twitter.com/UncleBills 3) Then I would buy a domain for $2.00 and register it and then get 0.1 cent hosting from hostgator for the first month, 4) I would then invite all MY REAL friends from FB to like the unclebills FB page , then tell them to like there friends, 5) I would then connect my twitter, facebook and youtube all together, 6) Create a logo using a free font from dafont.com etc etc and then you will be live, Once you do all that, you will have a SOLID foundation to start marketing, 7) Create a few posts on your blog, with affiliate links, 8) Reach out to family members, friends and ask if they want help installing there blogs, sell them hosting, Once you do all that, PM me and I will show you some terrific stuff that will help you more, or I can even post it here, but its GO TIME for you
That's some good advice from sundaybrew. CMadelt, maybe you could advise how much you're willing to commit each month.
