Hey Clinton, Thanks, its good to have something positive for a change. Re: the sig file. Yes, you guessed it, that was the first site I built myself with the listbuilding coaching. Its going OK. About 90 subscribers. Just need to do some more traffic generation for it. With the coaching, I have built a totally new site. Failed? Its a common experience. Edison failed thousands of times before he succeeded with the electric light bulb...! Just today, a friend promised me 5 promotions to his 50,000 list, so that should do nicely, when I get to that point.....
Thats true, Edison did fail quite a few times before he succeeded. I heard(not sure if its 100% true or not) that a baby attempts to walk 999 times before he succeeds. I've failed a few times myself, pixel ads etc. But I'm still trying and thats important. It's your idea, you have the right attitude. Trying is the best thing. Personally, I don't think I agree with your idea but it's just me. If you think it will work than don't give up until your sure it's not the right thing. If you fail, try something different. It's only a matter of lessons/failures that leads up to success. Keep in mind people in past and present that have succeeded Remember Knowledge + Action = Results!!! Good Luck
I'm always interested in where the "gurus" intend to break through tomorrow, after today's niches are soaked up by the millions. The comment regarding how Google started is a valid one, but doesn't address the fact that just about every good idea has been done, and very very few can do it better without LOTS of venture capital and backing from big players and angel investors.
RevRPM i don't know why you keep on replying like some miracle will happen. If you want to make 100k online you will need to come up with something creative. Honestly the internet is one of the most competitive ways of doing business and you will never find this magic 'guru'. Spend some time thinking of ways and researching instead of making pointless posts
What's the problem? It sounds like you have the idea I am trawling DP to find some 'mug' guru to go with my plan. Read the posts. The idea of this thread was to inspire some people that there is actually a guru who would 'prove' he could do what he said, rather than take your money and underdeliver. Look, I am on the coaching... Probably, I would have succeeded without the guru and the coaching, because I am determined. You are quite right about being creative. But, that is advice you are giving. With the coaching I am doing, its 'more' than advice because the guru has an interest in my success....
No bull sh*t, I just posted about an ebook that I was talked into buying that will change the world for every beginner with 20 bucks. It's more of a tutorial than a book and can be read in like 5 minutes, and implemented just as fast. I don't know how much detail I can go into without jeopardizing the product, but let's just say you already do this every day, you can do this on any site, yours or not, Myspace can't even stop it, it is NOT black hat in any way, breaks no known internet rules, and the odds are in the favor that you already do this every time you're online and don't get paid at all for it yet. It is not a network, it is not an affiliate scheme, its not adsense, you can do it on your sites or just on the side with your friends and make major cash on the side for 'free' adwords money, or hosting fees. Anything. This is the 'Easy Button', and I smacked myself in the forehead when I saw how easy it was and realized that I had been missing out. Here is a link to my blog post, I stand by every word, and I am an adsense publisher, for what it's worth :whistles innocently: http://thebrokeblogger.blogspot.com/2008/05/omfg-jackpot.html I am waiting on word about possible affiliations.
OK UnFunded, Looks like you will have to change your DP name soon..!! From 'UnFunded' to 'OverFunded'! So, can you have a go at the original question? (With a twist) How long will it take YOU to get to $100K on-line?
http://thebrokeblogger.blogspot.com/2008/05/omfg-jackpot.html That is so true! 100k? I would have to say that will take me no more than a year, being generous, with the methods I link to in my blog post above. I've tried Adsense, I failed. I've tried CPA, failed. I've tried just having ten blogs and posting like crazy. Failed. I spent a few bucks on this eBook and haven't looked back. I'm dead serious, I'm making an instant dollar to $2.50 a day, per use of this guide so far. The last two days I watched myself earn 2 dollars off of 5 minutes work, a dollar a day. I repeated the steps 4 times last night, total of five, and wake up now to my first 5 dollar day, with no sign of slow down, totally residual, and now I see I have made 80 cent just for eating breakfast and posting this! lol, hahaha amazing. I have used this technique in a viral way, since it doesn't break any rules. If I do this a few more times, I am sure my online costs are going to be covered forever. I'm up to about $150 a month, automatic, right now (30x5.00), that I never have to look at again, just collect on. I NEVER have to touch it again!! LOL. I will though, because I want 20 - 40 dollars a day from this. Which is not going to be hard at all. In fact, I am doing this the exact same way I would promote affiliate stuff or try to get people to my blog, and the difference is that this is paying me Every Single Visit, while I have yet to see a single red cent from other stuff. 40 bucks a day is 2500 days to $100K, but I will be much faster than that, because 40 free dollars a day goal is to buy ANY adwords keyword without thinking twice about cost
most people wont make a 100k online in their lifetime, and people that do are more likely to sell their information then just plain giving it away
Hmmm, interesting how RevRPM has 'RPM, RPM Marketing, UK!' in his sig. If it means what I think it means, then I know about this company and know that they specialise in branding using altenative and unsual methods. I could be wrong, but you never know...
I think it would take about 2 years if you have some good skills (php, mysql, marketring) and most importantly a creative mind
If you can find a real guru that will do this for you and not take your money first then I applaud you for your persistance.
Actually, I did not have to wait too long. I did ask the chap who coached me for list building, but he did not come back to me (that's OK). Then, I did a traffic series with another top marketer. Not long after that was finished, he said that he had done this coaching before (pay at the end). Then, a few weeks later, he said he would do it. So, I signed up straight away... ...just about to book my second call, so we can start promoting the first site...
I'm almost 100% sure that a guru won't teach you to make $100000. If he plans to get a written deal or contract, I advice you to read between the lines . Im an absolute n00b to talk about this. I think you will need two things.. DETERMINATION and ExPeRiEnCe.
Who is the guru and what methods are you supposedly learning? lots of ways to make money you know, adsense, affiliate, product creation, etc etc...
The guru is Matthew Glanfield. Great guy. Made a lot of money helping people. Knows that the more he gives, the more he gets back... Check it out for yourselves... www.BBOPlatinum.com Its taken 79 posts for someone to ask the question....
