Dear value subscriber,

I'm an internet marketer who wants to share my knowledge with you and help others avoid "Get Rich Quick Programs" targeted to inexperienced marketers. We all want to be a success online, but they're critical steps, patience and determination to succeed. As a marketer, I need to do a background check to make sure this compay is legit. Credibility, trust and integrity is most important. Does this company have a seal of approval on its website? Does this company have a full business address(no p.o.box) with phone# and customer support line where you can speak with someone directly. Ask many questions and recommendation opinions from others is important also. Forums are great because they provide an outlet to building relationships and it's a community setting where people will be honest about their experiences with all online programs. Another tip is doing a google search on these programs and evaluate reviews from others on all pr pages. I like to keep it simple and easy for many to understand and you'll be able to share with others.

Affiliate programs are a great start to begin because there's no inventory or hassels to dealing with customers and your only responsibility is just concentrating on marketing your particular product with promotional tools and you will receive a commission percentage for what you sell. I must emphasize that it takes hard work to achieve success in life and it takes time, I rather learn over time to be a success than make foolish mistakes in losing thousands of dollars because I want to be rich now with no experience and guidance. Patience is so important in this type of industry. Research is vital to your success. Focus on a specific niche that you're passionate about and put all your energy on that niche because the internet is flooded with offers everyday and I receive it alot in my mailbox and they're designed to stir you away from what you're focused on to be a success. I'm quite sure you get a few persuasive offers and my rule of thumb is just ignore the content and continue to ignore it. The funny part about those offers is that they will always be there in the future and something better will be created along the way. The internet is an ever changing system on a daily basis. Stay focus on that one project and build it to a success, remember do your research to either create a website for your product or join another affiliate program. Once you become experienced in internet marketing and you will learn through trial and error that there are ways to generate traffic to your website and I only recommend targeted traffic to your niche. A hot selling product which attracts hungry buyers in that specific market. There are many inexperienced marketers who purchase traffic with no idea of targeted traffic in their mind thinking, for example 20 million email blasters will explode their website with sales and sign-ups. This is an awful way of generating traffic because it leads to spamming and it's not targeted toward your audience looking for your niche. As a rule of thumb, never purchase traffic that isn't targeted to your niche. Many marketers buy traffic and receive very little or no results. These programs are very risky and are not reliable. If it looks too good to be true, stay away from these programs. Before you pull out your wallet ask questions first. I highly recommend writing articles and submitting to ezine ads. If you have a good budget, ppc and google adwords are great places to start. I highly recommend reading a guide for google adwords if you have no experience. There are some good free traffic exchanges to receive free targeted traffic and also creating a blog is great also and is a good way to receive back links to your website. Classified ads are great also, but you must know which ones are effective I learned a lot by participating in forums that allowed my signature file to be viewed and some experts participate also in forums to give great tips. I believe having a consistent routine daily and sticking with it is vital because you're what you put in anything that you do, especially your business, for example if you put less than 5 hrs a week into your business, you won't generate a high volume from your business. Many opportunity seekers want a quick way to earn money and it's nearly impossible for that to happen because it's unrealistic and unethical companies take advantage of those who hope to become rich overnight. Many people will do whatever it takes to avoid pain and in the internet world people are driven by information on how to avoid or do something to prevent any circumstance from happening. Any business offline takes time to grow and when hard work and sacrifice is put in, then that business thrives into a success. For example, when a seed is planted into the ground, you must water and nuture it on a daily basis and it will take weeks possibly months for it to reach it's full potential if those same procedures are done on a daily basis with consistency. Every day a new program is being launched as the next big venture from internet gurus and experts, but once again I recommend staying focus on your niche and be consistent, determined to make your project a success.

Think about it, if I'm focused a specific project that I have been working on for 4mths and I'm beginning to see progress, why discontinue all that time and effort to start something new that I'm going have to put time and more money into and would if that new program doesn't work. There are so many good programs out there that want you to become an affiliate to promote their programs that it takes you away from your main niche or program. I receive offers daily about how much I could make if I join xyz company promoting their products. They're many people all over the world conditioned to promote multiple affiliate programs without realizing that a few dollars in each program won't make them a success. I believe be a success with one program first and then create a product where you can do joint ventures to spread your product around to other marketers who can recommend your product, then they recommend your product to their subscribers which is an excellent way to generate huge profits. It's all about giving your consumers what they want and providing excellent customer service which leads to loyal subscribers. They're only a handful of successful internet marketers who believes in ethical practices and hard work. Starting a business isn't as hard as you may think. For example, I may not know anything about computers and how to build a website, but I may have created a product that will make hungry buyers want my niche. I can always hire a contractor or outsource a staff to be my programmer, graphic designer, copywriter or any techy type assistant to build a company. It takes research and the will to put those resources into action and make it happen. Always remember, don't feel pressured into doing something you're not comfortable with. Any knowledge gain should be passed along to help as many people as possible. Some may disagree, but I enjoy being honest and open-minded about things that I have a strong conviction about. I'm a straight-shooter and I just don't like to see folks being uninformed or misled about issues that can cause great harm. Many people say, "The money is in your list" I believe that and you must treat your subscribers like gold and help them as much as possible. Building a relationship is most important because if you can help your subscriber to a discount bonus or free gifts etc. They will be a loyal subscriber and highly recommend you to others and if you need a sale, you will be rewarded 9 times out of 10 by your subscriber.

In closing, research and stay focused on your goals and never give up on what you believe in and it may take awhile, but if you put hard work into your project you will be a success the right way and you will feel great and brag to your family and friends that gave you many doubts..It's all about proving folks wrong and enjoying the rewards with being happy and fruitful.
