You Can Make Money on The Internet
You Can Make Money On The Internet
by Sheila Warren
What would you say if I told you that it is honestly possible to make money on the internet, and I know because I'm probably the least likely person to make it work, but it works for me?
I was once very skeptical about whether or not it was at all possible to make any real money using the internet. I was surfing the web about 3 months ago, and came upon a concept called "affiliate marketing."
I'm a single mom, and I rarely use the computer for anything outside of email. I had absolutely no idea what affiliate marketing was, but I was curious. I'd seen some of the websites that belong to some of these affiliate marketers, and was so intrigued, that I purchased one of the packages that I'd been reading about.
It took me about two weeks to actually take the leap, primarily because I was still so skeptical about the whole "make money on the internet" thing. But I figured, why not? If I were learning to do anything else that was going to make me any money, I'd most likely have to purchase a manual, right? Thinking about it that way made sense. So I did it. I purchased one of those internet guy's manuals for making cash on the 'net. The site that I bought it on looked a lot like a giant infomercial, and I thought that was a little odd, but I went ahead and ordered it anyway.
Wanna know what happened? Ok. Here it is;
After ordering and downloading the e-book to my computer, I combed through it until about three in the morning. I couldn't put it down. Now, I'm not a techie by any means, but this was so interesting, I just couldn't stop reading. I couldn't wait to put this information to the test. It didn't sound like hard work, though it did sound like a lot of work...which I was okay with me. I can handle a lot of work...I don't like hard work much though.
So after forcing myself to put this thing down in the wee hours of the morning, I finally went to bed. But the following morning, I was at that computer bright and early, going through my money-making manual step by step, word for word. I started out at the very beginning, making absolutely no money. After implementing the steps that I found in this manual the checks started coming. They were small at first...six dollars and fifty cents was the first one. The next was for $25, one after that was for $75, but it would seem after that, that my little checks started multiplying themselves. Seventy five dollars turned into $152, the one after that was for $323, and so on. It seems to have leveled off to the point where I'm now making in the neighborhood of about $6500 per month, but I'm so thankful that I ordered and downloaded that little e-book. I was correct in my assessment of this process though, in the three months that it's taken me to get to this point, implementing the steps in this book wasn't hard work, though it definitely was a lot of work. But I think of it this way; if I were working for someone else for those three months, would I be making anywhere near $6500 a month now? I doubt it very much.
My advice about those e-books? Don't think just because one doesn't work, that none of them work.
Take a chance. Trust in yourself.
