Are You Focused Enough To Succeed Online Part 3

Ok! I’ll finish this whole thing in this final posting and then I’m gonna bum for awhile.

Let’s begin where I left off:

If you haven’t, here’s Part 1 and Part 2.

The last time I was blabbing away to you, I was saying that it’s soooooo easy to be overwhelmed with information on the internet that you’re going to be lost. I know because I went through it (and still do.. but it’s better) and I’m sure everyone else that is a success today online went through the quagmire before.

So hey don’t fret! You’re on the right track!

So the question you’re probably asking now is how do you handle ALL this darn information that’s hitting you left, right centre and below the belt? Well, I’ve mentioned this before in my previous post and the best way to handle this is to start something and stay focused on it.

Boohoo.. were you waiting for some earth-shattering secret to be revealed? There is no secret! You have just got to start. And I’m serious. The best way to digest all this info is to start something – a website/blog, so that now you have a playground where you can start playing around in.

You see when you have something to work with, it;s a whole lot easier to organize all this new information into where it fits in your overall plan. You learnt an adsense strategy, great! Now you go apply it on your website straightaway. You immediately know where to place, organize and use this new piece of information.

And when you DO it and USE it, your brain just remembers and internalizes this new info faster and much easier. It just works that way and I think you know what I mean here because you’ve experienced this for yourself.

Learnt some new copywriting secrets? Great! Now you just go and start applying what you’ve learnt immediately to your salesletter and you remember and learn faster and easier again. Not to mention you’re also taking ACTION to ensure your internet business becomes successful.

So ditto when you learn how to construct a useful email campaign, ditto when you learn how to improve your article submissions, ditto when you learn some hot new SEO strategy. You can immediately apply what you’ve learnt into the playground you have now and literally start playing around with the new toys you have.

Now imagine IF you didn’t start anything at all. You’d be flat out LOST. And you know it.

Adsense strategy? Great. But since you have no playground with which to place your new toy, you chuck the new toy in your cabinet upstairs. And then you tell yourself you’ll bring it down when you’ve got your website up (yea right… like in the next decade, you will).

And so you get more and more toys and your cabinet starts filling up and then it just SPILLS over and now you’re looking at a real mess (your brain!) and now you’re seriously lost. Even if you started your website up and running now, you still have to take the time to go through the mess if you ever want to make use of all the information you have.

Ok pardon the lousy analogy but you get the point.

Now I don’t mean this as a cop out, where just because you are lost now, you don’t ever start your online venture. In fact, you had better start now if you’re really serious of making it on the www (oh no! I’m nagging!)

Anyway, another question that could be on your mind is that ‘If you have just so much email coming your way, shouldn’t you just stop subscribing to all the IMers list?’

The answer is NO! (unless they’re really crap) Yeah but no, you should stay on their lists. Why? Because they’re a great source of information! These internet marketers are like your favorite rss feeds telling you what’s happening on the IM scene, what are the hot new (and useful) products on the market and the best part is this – they are giving you FREE education.

Yes! Go and observe HOW they sell to you!

Did you read that? Observe how they sell to you through their emails and followups. When you receive all these offers and emails, please don’t just see them from a customer’s viewpoint. Look through the whole process from a businessman’s point of view.

See how these guys construct their emails. Watch how they use the language inside to entice you to click and visit their website. Look at how the website/salesletter is structured. How did they make use of audio or video? Which day and time did they send you their emails? How often did they send a follow up email on a product? HOW did they do the follow up?

Observe, look and learn the entire sales process that’s happening right before your very eyes! These are some of the world’s top marketers strutting their stuff and you are getting a ring-side seat to see how it all happens for FREE! Hell, you could be learning a heck lot of stuff just from the emails they send you.

You just don’t have to buy. Buy only when it suits your needs and you know the product is quality. Because you need to focus. You only have so much time to do stuff. You still need to eat, shit and sleep some part of the day (not to mention trudging off to work). So spend your time wisely. You can only do so much stuff in 24 hours. So stay focused on what you need to get done and what brings you the most results.

Now if you don’t know what in the world you need to get done or you don’t know whether this new product offer is exactly what you need, then you have to seriously plan some business strategy of your own. Because running an online business is a business. It’s the same word, isn’t it?

Some people feel that just because setting up a website is cheap and easy, it therefore isn’t really a business. But I’ve got news for you that you’ve already read yesterday – it ain’t like that. It’s a business, business, business. If you want to make business profits, the dotcom you have is your shop and the start of your empire. So treat it as such.

But if you want to just test the water and use it as a hobby, then by all means do that. But then you’ll be making hobby income. You could still get lucky though and your website takes off but you’d leaving a sackful of money on the table until you treat your business as a business.

I must admit that I have several blind spots too. I’m learning all the time (as we should) and I’m learning how silly I do certain things every now and again. I’m leaving money on the table here and there, so there’s a whole lot of stuff I’ve still left to go through. It’s just that I’ve had some relative humble level of success and I want to share with you certain truths that helped me get there. And you will find your own truths along the way as well.

So to wrap it all up – start something! Start your adsense empire, affiliate marketing machine, info product network, etc. Whatever.. start now. So that you have a structure to work with and organize all the new information that’s coming your way.
So pick a solid IM course and stick with it. Learn and apply everything you can find in that course and you can’t go wrong.

I’m serious. I’m telling you that in a solid program, you have ALL the information you need to succeed on the internet. All you need to do is to apply it and consistently DO it again and again and again. You do NOT need more information, sometimes you just need to USE the information you already have. Read that line again. I mean it.

Pretty soon, you’ll be earning enough profits to outsource all the daily work, so you can focus your time on more important things, like product development, business strategies, and world domination.

Someone asked me what’s a good solid program to start off with and I’d recommend Derek Gehl’s Insider’s Secrets program. Either that or you get a personal coach to mentor you (which is pricey BUT worth it).

I recommend Derek’s course because it contains everything you need to know about IM. All the basic solid strategies, all the A-Zs are inside this course. It’s the #1 IM product out there and for good reason too. I used one half of it personally myself and looked where it got me. Not too shabby eh?

But if you want to go into something else more specific like adsense or affiliate marketing, etc. Then go find a course that’s the best in that field. Learn all the stuff that’s in there and apply and you will see results.

I don’t want to sound as if I’m a guru making tons of money every 24 seconds. I just want to share my part of my experiences with you. If you find it useful, glad I helped. If you think I’m a bag of hot air, I’m fine with that too. You don’t have to listen to me. Because in the end, you decide what you want to listen to, what/who you want to learn from and the decisions YOU make will either lead to your success now and you will delay it for a little while longer.

Ok I don’t want to type.
