is online marketing for you?

If you are just beginning to wonder if there is a lot of money to be made on the internet, I can tell you this:

there is.

If you have been actively searching such things as online marketing, affiliate marketing, making money online, etc., then you have seen how huge and active this subject is.
AND- you have seen the overwhelming amount of hype, products, ‘deals’, clubs, membership sites, and so on that are out there trying to
collect your money.
Since it is such a lucrative field, everyone and their sister is trying to capitalize on it….

In a recent national survey, 77% of Americans stated that they want to work from home…
77 PERCENT!

Well, obviously, if we all worked from home the economy would crumble! Who would do the manufacturing, shipping, maintenance, cleaning and servicing of all the stuff we need to get by these days?
Fortunately, the marketing/sales industry online has some built-in qualifiers that weed out the wanna-bes from the true entrepreneurial types. (Although you might not think so, with all the get-rich-quick and we do all the work for you scams out there…)

SO— what are the qualifiers? Well, you see it thrown around a lot, but the biggest obstacle to running a successful online business is:
 

Do you have the entrepreneur mindset?
Meaning:
Can you be the boss?
Can you be the star employee?
At the same time?
Can you follow through with an idea start to finish?
Are you unafraid of failure?
Do you see failure as a way to improve?
Can you delegate responsibility? Can you organize, prioritize, systemize, and strategize?

These are some of the hard questions to look at when thinking of entering this field.

The other major qualifier is the ability to take action.
It is one thing to have the motivation, the desire, to start creating wealth for yourself, BUT- come on, everyone wants to be wealthy.
We all have that desire!

Can you take action?

Can you commit the time and focus to study what is necessary and do the hard, intense work you will need to do?

No matter what any ‘marketing guru’ or seminar or salesletter or website claims, there is a lot of work involved in online marketing.
(Why do you think there are so many ‘cheating’ software products being marketed- all the “[blank] creators”, “[blank] generators”, “[blank] automators”, etcetera….)
Instant riches, overnight wealth, Automatic profits- these are all good salescopy, but they simply aren’t real.
Like all of life, internet marketing works like this:

You get out what you put in.
