Geesh… i also thinking about internet marketing but from this website it seemed to involve a lot of legal proceedings. Like registering for business still need to pay around $65 all in all. Erm…Adam…I really wonder how you earn all those money sometimes. Really amazed me. Just what have you done that you got so much sales for Clickbank? Heez…

Adam says:
Hey Amy.. Thanks for the info! Am I really considered a business? Or can I operate as an individual like what if I just make money through adsense? I’ll have to ask a professional for advice now… Internet marketing is really still a gray area here.

How did I make the money? Mainly through SSMM. You can read about my journey in my previous blog posts. When I first started this blog, I was making like less than $90 a month, really really small amounts. And SSMM.com, the salesletter, the sales process, email autoresponders and the ebook, etc all didn’t exist! Wow! Time sure flies… Looking back at all the stuff I did.

Amazing! I’m grateful for all of it.

Hey, congrats! I know what it feels to get the first Big chq. Dont stop here mate, I bet there will be more successes in the future from you.

Adam says:
You’re on my blog! First Stuart and now you! hahahahha… I love the endorsements. Thanks Jag!

Ohh yea, I have a question for you, umm, in your own point of view, what makes the SSMM launch is success?

And, I am thinking of starting my own bussiness soon. I’ve planned that already for afew months. And, one of my friends suggested blog as an advertising and promotional ground. Well, will that work? And is it legal to sell lotsa stuffs on the net without registering as a company. Just pondering.

And again, a job well done *pats shoulder*

Adam says:
Thanks man!

Why SSMM is a success? Numeber of things. It’s solid product, good credentials, copywriting, hard work and LUCK. Sometimes it happens but we have to be prepared to receive it. I did get some luck for the launch but if i didn’t put it altogether nicely, luck wouldn’t have dropped by to say ‘Hello! Let’s make some sales!’.

A blog is just one way to to create awareness for your product and even so, a blog needs time to build up. Xiaxue’s (ya.. I read her blog, gives me my regular dose of drama) been around for 4 years now, things don’t happen overnight. Look at other ways to promote as well – write articles, submit a press release, PPC, classified ads, forums, emails, submit to directories, working with JV partners, etc.

I’m not really sure about the legal aspect of things and I don’t think SG has a real framework yet becaue internet marketing is still relatively new here. So check it out if you are interested to know and let me know too! haha..

I posted you a question in an earlier post about setting up a site which you responded. I have since gone on to experiment with blogger and been blogging quite a bit. I have also begun to use facilities such as “del.icio.us” to store my favourite links and pages, feedblitz for email notification, adsense, clickbank to promote my blog and try some affiliate marketing. Basically find out ways to drive traffic to my blog, though I do not have anything to sell, but still happy if people were to find my blogs on self effectiveness, wealth and health (through Wing Chun Kung Fu) interesting (Gosh, shameless self advertising! )

I was a non-believer in internet affiliate marketing too. After seeing your success, I guess you do have a point that it does work. I signed up as an affiliate for SSMM but no hits on it lah. I’ll be trying other concepts as I progress.

Taking one step and a time. Taking action!
Thanks

Adam says:
Whoa.. You are already onto del.icio.us? I haven’t even touched that yet! haha.. You’re fast! Glad to know that you’re moving forward, you can only learn so much faster when you’re out there in the trenches taking action everyday. All the best!

I’m going to get it too once i’m done with my SSMM.. hehehe… congrats to you again. feel happy for you.

hope more cheques coming in for you

best wishes.

Adam says:
Thank you Rose! Yes! There will be many more cheques coming!

May i ask u a question, for me, right, i also use wordpress to made a v simple website, do i still need to pay the service provider?
if i wanna advertisement on it, how should i do it? like Ads by google, etc. I am new at internet marketing and really curious of starting now. Can you give me a bit of guide? Thanks.

Adam says:
Wah lau! This type of comment makes me wanna kiss you! (if you’re a girl lah.. and you should be since Xiaoli’s a ‘girl’ name) But besides that…

The wordpress software is free, you can get it at wordpress.org . You would need to pay for your domain name and for hosting. I suggest namesecure.com for that. As for hosting, you can look around for a local provider or you may want to search around on the internet for one that suits your needs and budget. Google Adsense is free, you just stick the code into your html.
