    I have been wanting to begin marketing for some time now, but have never been able to start. The only thing I have done before is mess with social network traffic. I was thinking about getting back into that, but I did not know if I should or not. What are some tips you guys have? How do I go about starting to market? What would you recommend to someone new(which type of marketing, etc)? Thanks

    First of all, you can start with one of two methods:

    • Create your own product. Write about something you are an expert in or have a strong interest, but make sure before you begin that there is a market.
    • Affiliate programs.

    The goal is to create a system where you have these 3 elements:

    1. Product: the product should have a market - something that has proven to sell in large numbers or for a lot of money. It should also be something you can legally and ethically sell.
    2. Salespage/selling method: The best copywriters get paid thousands of dollars and make 6 figure+ incomes because right copy can increase you sales by 100%, 200% or even 1000%.
    3. Traffic: Targeted traffic is crucial. It's better to have 100 people interested in your product than a thousand with no interest.
    The advantage of an affiliate program is that you only have to focus on one area: traffic

    Copy success:The best way to create a successful system is to copy somebody else who is already successful. Study every detail of their business.

    Stay focused: If you scatter and spread yourself over too many projects you will never get anything done. Follow one project to completion until it succeeds or you know you can't make it a success.

    Define Goals: Decide what you want to accomplish and create a plan to make it happen.
