Research and more research

Last time I left off with you, I was working on a product to market. Well, I became de-railed because I have been continuing to do more and more research about IM and how best to approach it.

As usual for most people I became mired in the details instead of doing anything important. I have been a victim of too much information gathering in the past. Sometimes it takes a little while for me to recognize that I have been "procrastinating" by rationalizing that I need to get more information. Have you ever done that?

When I finally made decision to get the product together and I got it finished rather quickly. It took about 6 hours give or take and now I still have a couple of things I msut do to finish the project up - I guess maybe another 6 or so hours.

I don't work at IM full time as I mentioned in a previous post that I have other business interestes and a full time family :).

Not to make excuses, but this is why I have been absent form this blog for so long now.

Here is the newest up date.

The score:

cost = $0 :)
income = $0 :(
time invested = 6 hrs (approx)
income/hr = $0 :(

But, at least the product is ready for the sales letter to be written and the traffic methods to be employed. Writing the sales letter is a whole different budle of issues to address now. The sales letter has to be inviting enough to convert to sales. I might try a couple or thress of them to see which ones "pull" the best.


I will post the sales page url when it is finished.

Traffic development will test certain tactics I have read about - article writing, ppc campaigns and the like. I will track the different methods and report back.

I hope this isn't all too basic for everyone who reads this. But I was looking for a basic resource like this one when I started wanting information about IM and I couldn't find it out there. Everyone was selling nobody was giving.

I hope this helps.

Start A Blog -- A Fast And Easy Way to Have A Web Presence

It is much more difficult to be an Internet Marketer (IM) if you don't have a web presence. That isn't to say that you can't run an email marketing program where you can sell products with affiliate links through email promotion [there's a tip for you :) ]. Emails are deleted , they wind up in the SPAM filter, or they get buried under hundreds of other unopened emails. Email marketing combined with a web presence is a better combination. You can use email to promote and sell directly from the email and at the same time if the customers aren't quite ready to buy, you can direct them to your web site to continue to build the relationship with them.

But having a web site requires some level of commitment and some cost also (although there is a web site where you can put up web pages for free- more on that later in the next post or two). You have to select and register a domain name, you have to build a web site -- there are easy to use tools available, but you still have to have a little knowledge and skill, you have to pay for a web hosting service to host your web site, and a few other things like setting permissions on email, etc.

OR... you can have blog for free. This blog is hosted by Blogger.com and it costs nothing to open. Just go to Blogger.com and follow the easy to use instructions and you'll have your web presence in less than 30 minutes. A blog is a perfect way to provide a place to send your customers, a place to earn credibility with your customers, and together these two things lead to developing a relationship with your customers that you can monetize later.

In your blog you can put pictures and advertisements (
see my post -- The Easiest Way To Become A Super Affiliate And Make A Bundle Of Money) to promote or to show people things depending on what you are trying to accomplish.

This may be obvious to you that you can open a blog, but it can be used very powerfully for marketing. I am using another blog to provide information to people in a selected target market. I am building credibility and developing a relationship with those people who read the blog and through trust and credibility that has been earned, they opt-in for more information. Remember, the email list is the "Holy Grail" of Internet Marketing.

So build your blog or many different blogs, I have around 10 of them. Write some great informative posts about you, about what you know, about anything, or about a subject you want to monetize. Why be an IM if you don't want to"monetize"?


You can also monetize your blog by adding Google Adsense to your blog, you can set up widgets -- they are little modules of advertising of affiliate programs you can join if you have a web presence -- one such one is with Amazon.com, or you can accept other direct advertisements.

So get a web presence and monetize!

The Easiest Way To Become A Super Affiliate And Make A Bundle Of Money



I have been researching so many Internet Marketers (IM) my computer hard drive and email are jammed with different affiliate links, programs, offers, etc.

I recently came across an awesome program where Armand Morin, a long time and very successful IM, who has sold over $45 million worth of products online is launching a brand new affiliate program with his successful products and everything else he has in the pipeline. I looked into the program and found that not only is he setting up anyone who wants to become an affiliate in the next 17 days --


But more importantly, he is teaching them exactly how to make money doing it!

Armand is pulling back the curtain and showing how all the big Internet Marketers make money. It is truly unbelievable what they do that everyone of us trying to make money in IM doesn't know how to do!

Check it out for yourself:
