Getting Past The Learning Curve In Internet Marketing.

It was the year 2008 and I had been in a traditional MLM company for 4-1/2 years, building it the old school way. Back in 2006 I had purchased Mike Dillards Magnetic Sponsoring and at the time it was way over my head.

I had no idea how to put the systems he was talking about into place, nor did I know anything about Internet Marketing, however, the information planted in MS was revelation knowledge to me.  I was so darn excited and relieved that I was not the only one that went through the issues that most network marketers deal with.

Timing is everything

I really believe that god hands you things as he sees that you are fit to handle them.  It’s all about his timing not mine.  Toward the end of 2008 I was frustrated.  I had built several small organizations in my MLM company at that time and each time I thought I had traction and was growing, my group fell apart like an old Hyundai.  4-1/2 years and nothing to show for it other than the awesome education I had received through dozens of weekend seminars, one on one coaching and weekly hotel meeting trainings.

I knew that there was a better way of building a network marketing business and I also knew that the Internet was the place to do it, however I could not put the pieces together that were necessary to make a move forward online.

Then, a series of circumstances came forth.  I re-read Magnetic Sponsoring, found some very successful Internet Marketers and connected with them and started the process of branding and positioning myself online.

My Blog

The first step in having an online presence is having a blog or a “hub”.  Somewhere where I can write about my thoughts, offer some training of all the things I learned or am learning and a place in which people can come to see what I am all about.

I started out with a Blogger Blog and actually had several.  I got comfortable with blogging and wanted to take it to the next level so I hired someone to build me a professional WordPress blog with all of the bells and whistles.

Since it’s creation it has changed and morphed into what it is today.  I am going to change the theme and look again in just a few weeks.  Why?  Because I am changing.

My blog is an extension of me.  It’s a place in which I can be real with people, offer advise, exchange information and learn more about my audience.  It is the first step in really positioning yourself for success online so don’t skimp out on it. I have spent thousands of dollars on my blog, building backlinks, graphics, etc..  Do you have to do the same?  All depends on how much knowledge you have about building blogs.

Continuing Education

After leaving my traditional MLM company and hooking up with an online business model in the top tier direct sales industry, I realized I had a lot to learn, so I dug in and spent a lot of time learning the basics.  Video Marketing, Article Writing, Learning how to write a press release, Pay-Per-Click Advertising, Banner Advertising, etc.  I probably learned about 20 ways to market online through the program and community that I belong to.  What I realized is that the learning never stops.  It’s ongoing and constantly changing because the Internet is constantly changing.

Making Things Happen

With all the hype on the Internet and false income claims people make, people have this notion that it’s easy to make money online.  It is, once you learn how to market, but a struggle all the way up to that point.  Nothing worth having is going to come easy.  There is no easy money on the Internet.  If your going to make it online, your going to invest money to make money, period.  Like everywhere else, there is no free ride.

Massive action and persistent and consistent effort is the only thing that is going to propel you to any substantial income online.  You have to be an action oriented and laser focused person to become a top internet marketer.  You have to be willing to invest in courses, systems and anything necessary to bridge the gap that exists between you and your goals.  Are you going to blow some money in the wrong places?  Yep. It is all part of the learning process.  Don’t beat yourself up over it, just keep it going until you get what you want out of it or until you meet your goals face to face.

In Conclusion

Just in the past year alone I have learned a ton and got the equivalent of an associates degree in Internet Marketing.  I am currently working on my bachelors (sort of speak) and then onto my masters.  Just like everything else, it has required many hours of study and financial resources to keep everything going.

Winners do whatever it takes to make their dreams and goals a reality.  Losers make excuses as to why things have not gone their way and play the blame game.

I am committed to helping others learn how to market online and make a full time life doing it. Are you coming? Or are you going to stand by and watch the passing parade of humanity go by and say “what happened”?
