Remember that fun game
we played as children...Pin the Tail on the
Donkey? You know, we would take turns being
blindfolded and twisted around a few times before
attempting to pin a cardboard tail onto a donkey
attached to the wall.
Being blindfolded, it
was fairly difficult to accurately attach the
tail. We would usually miss the mark numerous
times before we pinned it in the proper place. Or,
sometimes, we never found the proper place and just gave
up in disgust.
While that may have been
a fun game as children, as adults trying to do business
on the web, it's not so much fun.
And yet, I see many
people playing the grown-up version of this game...Pin
the Tail on the Web Marketing Donkey.
Yep, they line up to
take their turn being blindfolded and twisted around on
the internet. There are so many "sure
shots" and "guarantees" and "you
need this product or this service" online, good
grief it's hard to imagine anyone ever finding the right
spot.
With so many schemes,
scams and shams online blinding most inexperienced and
intermediate web marketers, it is fairly difficult to
accurately "attach the tail" with any kind of
success.
And so, what
happens? Most people miss the mark numerous times
(you know, they send out their ad to 50 million members
of a "safe list," post to a few hundred
thousand FFA pages and generally get taken in with all
kinds of "web promotion.") before finding that
place where things really do fit, or they never find it
at all.
And they give up in
disgust and become another statistic in the 95% of
online businesses that fail.
Surely there is an
easier way.
Actually there is.
And I'm about give you 6 quick LAWS to LIVE BY if you
really want to stop walking around blindly online and
finally find the promised success you've been reading
about...
Law #1: Don't Quit
Your Day Job. The first thing you need to
understand is that Rome wasn't built in a day.
Translation: Your internet success isn't going to
happen overnight. Too many people think that
jumping online is some kind of magic potion that turns
anyone into a six-figure income producer in the next 7
days. It doesn't happen that way - and stay away
from anyone who tells you it does! If you are just
starting out, plan on six months to a year of developing
your eBusiness before it's time to even THINK about
cutting ties with the "real
world."
Law #2: Set
Reasonable, Reachable Goals. Having realized
it is going to take six months or longer...don't
despair. Sounds like an incredibly long time right
now, doesn't it? Don't be discouraged, be
realistic. Allen Says of the Warriors
didn't become a success overnight. Ken Evoy of
SiteSell didn't do it. Terry Dean, Lee Benson and
dare I say, Jimmy D. Brown - none of us became successes
in the first few weeks. And yet, each of us RIGHT
NOW are pulling in full-time incomes from the web.
They key is to simply take your time. Set
"mini" goals that you can reach each day and
week. Arm yourself with a plan and take
"baby" steps until you reach the goal. I
assure you, with proper planning, you WILL be
successful.
Law #3: Find a Good
Map. So, what kind of goals should you
set? Is there a "checklist" you
can follow to mark your progress? Just like any
journey in life, if you want to make sure you are headed
in the right direction...you need a map. Trust me,
no one wants to play LEWIS AND CLARK online and try to
create their own map...way too much trouble. You
need someone who has already been there, someone who has
already made their way through the maze and knows how to
get to the top. Do your research. And here
is what I would tell you to look for: Find a web
marketing product that offers ONGOING SUPPORT.
More than just manuals and information, you need someone
you can ask questions to when you find you don't
understand. You need someone who is going to be
available to give you consultation when you need to be
pointed in the right direction. Don't purchase a
product from someone who is just going to take your
money and never return your emails after that.
Find someone who will HELP you along the way.
(There ARE those who offer this service. If you
need a recommendation, then email me at recommendation@profitsvault.com)
Law #4: Understand
WHAT To Promote. Learn this truth
immediately...you need your own product. You need
something to promote online that you are able to sell
and keep 100% of the profits for yourself. Don't
let anyone kid you, the people who earn the most money
online are the ones who control the products and
services. Sure, affiliate programs are great to
promote. And I do that myself. However,
affiliate programs are best used to work the back-end,
as complementary products, not as your main
product. Information products in eBook form are
the best to sell online. Believe it or not, with
the right map, you'll be cranking out your own product
in just a few short weeks.
Law #5: Seek Support
Along the Way. I've already touched on this a
bit earlier, but you need ONGOING support. You can
find this through your web marketing "mentor"
that you purchase products from, but you can also find
help in many other ways. Visit the message boards
and forums to ask your questions and seek advice.
You'll receive free counsel from a variety of
experienced marketers at these sites. Contact the
owners of websites that you are considering purchasing
their product. Ask them preliminary questions
about their product as it pertains to the area you need
guidance in. Visit the major search engines and
search for keywords and phrases pertaining to your
question. Don't be afraid to ask questions.
After all, you need some help pinning that tail on the
donkey!
Law #6: Launch an
Affiliate Program. Once you've developed your
own product and have gotten a feel for how things work
online, THE NUMBER ONE thing you can do to generate
serious income is to launch your own affiliate
program. You are just ONE person. There is
only so much advertising you can afford. There is
only so much marketing and promotion you can do
single-handedly. There are limits and boundaries
that you simply can't exceed as one person.
However, combine the marketing power of thousands of
other people and you'll see your profits
skyrocket. I don't know any highly successful
website online that doesn't offer an affiliate
program. It is THE single best thing you can do to
generate sales. Hands down. No question
about it. Period. (for more details on this,

So, there you have
it. Six "laws" you should live by in
order to achieve success. Six "laws" to
help you pin the tail on the web marketing donkey.
It's time to take the
blindfold off.
