This is an excerpt from an email I recently sent to an email subscriber which was too good not to share so I’ve posted it here for everyone to see for themselves.

I understand your wish to make some additional income via the internet and in the comfort of your own home. I’m about to retire from the Canadian federal government and its also my wish to make a very comfortable living online. I’ve only gotten serious about it over the last 6 months and it’s been a real eye-opener about the stuff which I’ve learned online. I’m making money online but not near as much as I want to, and I am certain that I will succeed in my goals by the new year and I’ll tell you why at the end of this email. J

 Okay, now I will tell you without getting into too many details what I’ve learned online  over the last 6 months. I’ve learned that I absolutely hate “fluff”! If you’re anything like myself, I am sure that you’ve been checking out all the different online opportunities to make an income online. You’ve probably bought some products, some of which are basically the same products that others are selling but with a different name; some that may have possibilities but many of them are basically garbage. Taking an educated guess, about 98% of the marketers are getting people to buy their products by getting them so excited in the next best thing, that they hit the “Order Now” button because it’s a time-limited opportunity. Sure some of them are time-limited but that’s just a method they use to lure us into buying their products when we would all be better off doing some research first. I’m sure that if we wait a few hours or another day, most times we would not make the purchase. The trick is to separate the fluff from the actual content and base our decisions on what is being offered. Its also a good idea to google the products and see what else is out there and how many people are selling the product and whether there are any complaints. If it’s a clickbank product, then check out the Clickbank site and find out more about the product and how hot it is. If the product looks like a hot product which can make some money, you would be better off signing up as an affiliate and selling the product instead of buying it. If you are interested in selling the product, contact the seller and express your interest in selling it as an affiliate and ask for a free copy. A lot of sellers will honour this request and will send you a copy of it. Another piece of advice here, if you buy a product via Clickbank, they all include a 60 Day 100% Money Back Guarantee. Even a lot of other products include 30 or 60 day guarantees, so if you’re not satisfied with the product, ask for your money back! I’ve done so many times and my refund requests have always been honoured. I will admit, that at times I’ve purchased too many products and did not have the time to take a look at some of them so I requested refunds before the guarantee expired.

 I’m not saying that all of these products are bad, but there are a lot of variables that will determine your success such as determination, knowledge, time, money, product quality, market saturation, market competition, etc. Another problem is that most of these ebooks, websites, training packages, videos, etc just don’t include all the required information and support needed to succeed. I’ve purchased several “websites in a box” so to speak, but once they are up and running, then I have little or  no support and have to learn how to get people to find my site, convince them to buy the product and then make the sale. If you don’t know how to optimize your website and how to send traffic to your site, then you will fail to make any money. You need to learn all of this or find someone to do it for you, which will cost you much more than you will want to spend. Of course, you can teach yourself how to do it all, but that takes time and then you won’t know if you have made mistakes which will cost you money.

 I bet that you also belong to too many email lists. If you’re anything like myself, you’ve checked out a lot of different products, and even purchased as few of them. There are marketers sending you to their latest offers, or their “friends” or joint venture partners to check out the hottest and latest products and if you do so by midnight tonight, you can download some great free products. Okay, so you go and visit their website, and after clicking “No Thanks” on several different pages you end up on the page with the free downloads. But guess what, sure, there can be dozens of free downloads, but most of the time you are linked to a partners website and have to signup to his email list and negotiate thru several more offers before you get your free download. My advice, signup for the freebies, download the products and then immediately remove yourself from their lists. And if you belong to too many email lists now, they will be a distraction from your real purpose, and that’s too make money online! Remove yourself from all the lists which do not include any value! If you spend too much time reading emails and checking out the “Latest and Greatest” then you will not succeed! It’s my own conspiracy theory, that the online gurus and those whom they have trained have planned it all out to keep us unfocused and pad their bank accounts while we get no where fast. If you wish to succeed Estelle, then you need to organize and focus on what you want to accomplish, set your goals and plan on how you want to achieve them. I do recommend that remain on those lists which do give value and from whom you have purchased products.

 Regarding PluginProfits, its was very appealing to me when I signed up for it. It’s a good idea, but the only program which has value is GDI. GDI is a great success story and the only program in which I remain as a paying member. I will admit that Lawn Chair Millionaire has possibilities, as well as SFI and perhaps the others, but I don’t have the time to promote those programs and I am not really interested in these types of businesses anyways. I want something that I believe in and when it’s up and running will keep earning income whether I’m at home or out on the golf course. Also, PluginProfits added real value for me at the beginning due to the fact that Stone Evans did include a step-by-step tutorial (21 days to success I think it was?) which I found very useful as a learning tool. However, I’ve moved on from there and I am trying more advanced opportunities which will provide more opportunities for success and a much higher income. On my site http://www.makemoneyautomagically.com I’ve already removed SFI and LCM from the site and will be updating it to remove those programs that I do not believe in, but have not put aside the time to do it yet. I’ll also be removing Stone Evans’ article from the site and replacing it with my own article. It’s for you to decide whether you think PluginProfits is what you want, but my recommendation (yeah, I will lose money here hehee) is to take the month, learn all that you can from it, and then cancel it. GDI, I do recommend keeping it, but only if you believe in it and think you can make money from it. PluginProfits is an excellent money-maker for the owners of the site because its setup for them to make money not only via your signup for PluginProfits, but also via the web hosting as well as the various programs which they ask you to signup for as part of the package. For those who know what they are doing you can make money, for someone new to the game its very hard to do.

 Now the keys to success are the following. You need a product that is in demand and a website that is optimized for your product. You also need a good sales pitch (hopefully without too much fluff) and a professional looking website. You also need to submit your site to the search engines. You can do this yourself, or hire someone else to do it for you. There are many free services that will do it for you, and lots that will do it for a fee. You’ll also need an autoresponder for your mailing list and then you will need traffic. You can use PPC (Pay per Click) but if you do not know what you’re doing, then you will lose money. I’ve started using Wpromote (who is at the top of the food chain) http://www.wpromote.com/affiliates/idevaffiliate.php?id=3802 and they are doing an excellent job thus far. They optimized my website with my keywords (which they selected for me), and are running my Adwords campaign for a very reasonable price. Since they are Google and Yahoo certified they know what they’re doing and I don’t know for certain, but I bet they pay a lot less per click than what I would need to pay. I am very happy with their product and have already stopped my own PPC campaigns because theirs are performing much better. Once your site is receiving traffic, then it will be noticed by Alexa and the major search engines and over time, you will begin receiving free organic traffic. Once you begin receiving organic traffic, that’s when profits will begin to soar. You’ll also need to create links by posting articles in the ezines and by posting messages in blogs, forums etc. containing links pointing back to your website. The more links the better since the search engines love original content, and links are a barometer of the importance of your site.

 Now, here comes the most important information.

 You’ve been probably asking yourself the same question I’ve been asking all along. “What do I need to do to succeed?” I think I finally found the answer, even though it was staring in the me face all along, but I did not recognize it for what it was. Oh, suppose I knew the answer, but didn’t believe that it would make a difference and failed to focus on it and do it the right way at the beginning. I like to believe that I’m an optimist, and I am surely that. The last 6 months were not wasted because I learned a lot and it makes me appreciate that I am making an income online and will soon make a very good income. The secret? Training! I’ve found someone, or rather they found me, who has a good reputation in the training business and who guarantees your success or your money back. Yipee! lol Sure, it’s not cheap, but they will train you, help you choose your niche, setup your website, optimize the website, send traffic to your website and will remain with you until you’re making money or they will refund the costs of the training. The training consists of one-on-one coaching with your own personal trainer who will basically hold your hand while you learn all you need to get your website up and running and making money. It consists of online tutorials, videos and dozens of hours of telephone training.  I have to guarantee to them that I am committed to putting aside enough time each week for the training which is expected to take 2-3 months. They are very flexible about scheduling times but I am expected to try and spend at least 10 hours each week on the program. They will actually do all of the work setting up your website and they will send the traffic to your website so you can begin making money while the training is ongoing. I begin my training next Tuesday and I am very excited about it.  I’ll be certain to let you know the results.

 Now, they do not take referrals as far as I know, and they do not have a website for just anyone to visit and signup for their program. They choose their students via several of the top guns on the internet when you signup for certain programs. I was contacted by the training company when I signed up for one of Chris Cobb’s opportunities here: http://www.ais-system.com which provides training via DVD shipped to your home email address. Chris Cobb is one of the owners of the company which provides this training and they have several physical locations around the globe. I suggest that you signup for the free (just pay for shipping) month’s training DVD. There is a reasonable monthly charge after the first month which can be cancelled at any time. You’ll need to decide if you’re willing to pay their price but I am certain that it’s worth it. I will be able to attest to that fact in about 3 months time. If you are also interested in the personal training which I just signed up for, then you will just have to hope that they will select you as a candidate. Good luck! 

I have lots more that I can tell you, but I think this email is already long enough and I’ve got some other things to do. Take care Estelle and I hope that you can use this info to assist you in your future endeavours. Remember to stay focused, determined, and to set goals and I know you will succeed!
