How true “There’s this invisible hurdle that most people never make it over. Just on the other side of that hurdle is profit. The key to getting over that hurdle is in persistence, and mindset.”
My first 8 months or so were dreadful. I kept on persisting and I’m doing much better now.

How true Lynn. This swopping and jumping around, and being tempted by every new “great” idea, takes lots of discipline not to keep hooking up with and “trying” to make work. This whole article and the feedback has been most interesting reading, thanks for raising such a good topic.

I agree that valuable things are not gained easily, but if you focus and work on priority tasks… you can accomplish a lot in just 2 hours a day. The problem is with distractions and allowing yourself to get sidetracked by new options and new ideas.

You’re absolutely right. At the end of the year it pays to ask yourself: where would I have been now if I had stuck with the project I started with? No magic- just consistent, daily action and … *shocker* work!

Couldn’t agree more Lynn! I just did a video on this recently…it’s so powerful to not give up on an idea until you know you’ve sucked every bit of value out of it.

I believe in quitting when it’s appropriate, but most marketers seem way too trigger happy when it comes to this. The magic doesn’t come from finding some certain combination of niche and marketing tactic. The magic comes when you embrace the fact that there is no magic. The lessons worth learning are often hard won.

I honestly believe it’s QUICKER to do it the “hard” way…and just build a business slow and steady, instead of looking for short cuts.

Denise,
I’ve even seen some people saying spend two hours a day and you’ll succeed. I doubt this. The proof is how they train you to become a successful blogger. What they teach you to do is impossible to accomplish in such short time.
Besides, like anything else in life, valuable things won’t be gained easily!

I recently did a series on creating web content, and you’ll find those posts in the Web Content Development category here:

There are 2 pages of posts or more, I think – but some of them may prove very helpful to you in defining the purpose and coming up with easy content types & topics.

Hi Lynn,

Yes I do have some Adsense on my site with my AM product.

I will take your suggestion and employ that strong call to action actually I had thought about that to redo my content in a way to get more sales.

Again Thanks

Appreciate the kind words, and love the enthusiasm! You guys are both on the right track, and I’m really glad you joined in with the SSWT group – it’s been great fun getting to know you and brainstorming with you!

Clay,
Don’t feel alone! I too have done close to the same thing as you and still haven’t seen anything, nothing, nada. BUT, the information and knowledge I’ve learned along the way has been priceless. I agree with you about the SSWT forum. This is the best thing I’ve found in years and Lynn and the Elite have been great getting to know and interact with. I equate it to learning a new song on the guitar and having Eric Clapton & Jimmy Page sit in and help!
I’m at the same crossroads with “Super Affiliate Handbook” and it will be my next investment.
We should start our own group on the forum of people like us who need support and to initiate some kind of accountability.
I’m open for any ideas you may have for this so feel free to email me.
Keep the fire burning and good luck,
Phil

Great article Lynn,

At first I bought a domain for every idea. Then I bought each “best internet Marketing” training available. Now I have lots of domains, am really smart about everything internet marketing and do not have a single web site that has been taken all the way to profit. Some of the training I bought was good yet too expensive and some of it was not what I needed at the time I took it. I am a perpetual student, yet also need to make a living.
For me right now, I am going to buy “The Super Affiliate Handbook” and take one site all the way to profit.

I also want to thank you so much for providing your forums. I have found it to be the best thing I have run across so far. Your weekly webinars and fellow members help me from buying stuff I do not need to move my businesss forward right now and to stay focused as well as provide insight and feedback on everything from ideas to websites.

Glad to hear it, Jenet!

One question – are you using Adsense on the same site where you’re promoting affiliate products? If so, you’re basically competing with yourself by doing that… you definitely want to keep the options limited and use a strong call to action on your pages.
