How Long Have You Been Trying to Make Money Online?

Miguelito203 · Mar 17, 2016

One of my subscribers (from my list) started e-mailing me at the beginning of the year complaining about the fact that she hasn't made any money online, yet. Her name looked familiar, so I looked her up in my e-mail system (Aweber). As it turned out, she has been on my list for more than 2 years! Even though I don't mail out too much (a few times per month when I have something of value to offer), she should have made money by now (if she bothered to actually implement anything).

She goes on to tell me that she doesn't like to write (and doesn't have the money for outsourcing). I told her that writing is a big part of this gig -- regardless of the business model -- and that she needed to find something she liked about it (finding a niche she liked, helping people, making money in an unconventional manner, etc). She also seems to have this thing where she doesn't really want to learn new stuff and is looking for an "easy button." Even though I told her no such thing exist (and she agreed), she keeps e-mailing me asking me to look at all of these crap programs!

She e-mails me at least two or three times a week. It's really sad. If you're a newbie and reading this, don't be this woman. While I think making money online is pretty awesome, it may not be for you -- if you have this woman's mentality.

Well. there are successful people online who make passive income. and many people who never earned a dime online like this woman you are talking about.

My answer. you have to remain consistent and work on your business and expect to fail all the time. there is no success without sacrifice. stay consistent and never give up. learn the basics before you learn advanced skills about affiliate marketing.

and the most important advice i can give you is ...... You will see success after 3 years of work. and when focus on one thing.
don't expect success in 6 months.

Hope that helps

This isn't an industry for lazy people. I'm not saying that woman is lazy, don't get me wrong. But often people expect to make money doing something really simple, without putting much work into it, and then they figure this whole online thing just doesn't work.

People! Wrong! Just like any J.O.B. we have to be willing to work hard, do research, fail, and get back on our feet.

Working online is a lot of fun - or rather, it can be - if done with the right mindset and determination. When I first got started making money online, I had the wrong mindset. I wanted to make a lot of money really fast without having to work hard. That's not how it works!

I got back into it a few years ago with the RIGHT mindset and have been doing pretty well. Plus, I love teaching others about my failures and how to get started making their own incomes online.

Internet involves a very intelligent person to make a dime in the internet because its not simple, even the way people go to search engines to look for how to make money online, and the result will look like "make $1000 a day" and they will feel like it is how the internet is and will fall into the hands of scammers...

I don't know how a normal human will think that he or she will be making $1000 a day for just joining a business for the first time, just like someone said above that it is not for lazy people its for intelligent and hardworking people..

I was in the internet for complete 1 year and some months without making a dime but I continued reading forums and spending my time to ask questions on certain things that I don't understand but right now am happy to know how the internet goes, and how to make money from it, that it all depends on me to make money online or not to make money online that's all...

This is my own contributions about this post thanks

michaelswengel,
I totally agree with you. This, for me, is a pretty coffee--infused, late night, keyboard-pounding excursion, and you have to be willing to learn new things every day, to be open-minded, and to dedicate yourself to a lot of writing and mental activity. I've only been trying to make money online writing for a VERY short period of time, and I learn more and more exponentially every day in this process. I only hope that me endeavors pay off, and I am open to any advice.

This is one of the pitfalls of making money online. But it's also the fault of marketers. I see a lot of information products in Clickbank that have landing pages that entice potential clients to purchase by making promises like "make thousands of dollars in 7 days using a simple system" or "online revenue autopilot" and such terms.

These types of tag lines and enticements have probably resulted to sales but maybe only a few of those who purchased these products made it big.

I too believed in such hype. I pushed products with similar sales pitches. The problem is, I wasn't able to implement their systems. Take note that not all systems should work for you.

Of course i was discouraged in the past. But still, I strived. And here I am. I still am earning online. I have a couple of websites. And I'm still doing good.
