Everyone is looking for THE thing that will fulfill their dreams. I did too. For a while I thought that affiliate marketing would fulfill them. Where have you looked and has it satisfied you? What works? What doesn't? Here some of the things I found out that are true for myself: Affiliate marketing in itself does not satisfy me because in the beginning it is just a lot of work and learning with little outcome. I needed to know why I was doing it. Education only does not satisfy. I needed to know what difference it could make using my knowledge. Money alone did not satisfy because it left me empty inside. I needed to know what to use the money for. What good it could do. Indulging (food, clothes, luxury articles, travels etc) didn't do it for me. Friends were fun -and sometimes trouble and in the end they didn't fill the void inside. I needed a purpose in life. What did not work for you? Why? What works? Because if we don't get this right, we go nowhere in affiliate marketing!
Making money with affiliate marketing was my dream in the year 2009 but in 2010 I am making some serious cash with it. .Actually its all about hard work and techniques when you are working with affiliate marketing.
The Aim and the hunger for to achieve aim is very imp ... if you like your work the outcome will be always positive
I HATE working for anyone. internet marketing gives me the opportunity to be my own boss. I want it to support my love for music and entrepreneurship. Affiliate marketing isn't the end, it's a means to an end. I hope to take the $ and invest it in real estate, ventures, non-profits, etc. It's about being independent, not having to answer to anyone, and even helping people out in the process if I can.
If you have success financially or in any other area of life, doesn't that leave you empty after a while unless you have a purpose in it all?
For some, affiliate marketing is an end solution. Fortunately for most sellers, the vast majority of individuals that initially get into affiliate marketing stay there once they get a decent list going and start making some "reasonable income". We all know it isn't an overnight process, no matter what some people are trying to sell. However, for some, a reasonable income is just not enough, and affiliate marketing (from the affiliate side) just isn't enough. It is a good place to get some experience at a low cost and make some cash along the way, but you won't be typically making a million plus a year as an affiliate. The only way to really big money is to build your own empire, and that means being a product owner/seller. From the perspective of a product owner, affiliates are a wonderful way to get a huge amount of exposure without any additional effort, and because most downloadable products have next to nil development costs, giving up half of the potential profit is more than worth the commissions that go to the affiliate. Thus, we see one of the few win-win situations in the world of marketing.
Anyone will feel empty inside at some point in their life, but being successful in affiliate marketing could fill in those emptiness. Practically, financial burden causes emptiness, having to work away from your love ones.
That emptiness is not filled with affiliate marketing! I agree that when you can be with your loved ones that a lot of joy comes - and affiliate marketing can be the door to that joy.
