The Secret To Success
Success is one part chance and NINE parts effort. Simply put, you are where you are today because of what you did yesterday.
This website, NewbieMarketerOnline, was actually the first website (a simple page) I ever designed.
It was basically a squeeze page designed to collect email addresses from which I later would submit offers to. It wasn’t much but it was a start.
Change Is Good
Much has changed in the last two and a half years and I no longer promote this site. I’m actually in the process of updating it because it does get traffic by default as a result of my other internet marketing activities. This website was once the launch pad for my business and is tied to my other sites and earlier efforts.
My most popular website is ChrisFarrellIncome.com; as it was my first major project after getting my feet wet with online marketing. I worked many months on it getting it ranked to a decent point and even today it still jumps around. It’s a steady money maker but the point is…. it wouldn’t be if I hadn’t taken action and actually done something.
So again I will say, “You are where you are today because of what you did yesterday”
Success Comes In Small Doses
Believe that you can “do anything you want” and you will do exactly what you want. I wrote blog post on this very subject as I reflected on what my mom used to say. You can read the full post here.
No one simply ends up successful. You have to do something and that means taking action. It won’t happen fast but it will happen. It starts as a trickle and before you know it…….
There’s a lot that can be said here but I’ll defer to what I’d like to refer to as my “epilogue”. This is a short attachment I added to my eBook many months after I first wrote it and it best describes how I view success.
Success isn’t so much about making money as it is “enjoying” what you’ve committed yourself to doing. And, getting satisfaction out of it.
Snippet from “Newbies Guide to Internet Marketing”
It’s been a little more than a year and half since I started my internet marketing business. When I wrote this ebook I was about four months into it. As I look at it, I smile to myself and reflect on what I was going through at the time.
I had started to make sales and although they weren’t as consistent as I would have liked, I knew there was more to come as I stayed focused and committed.
I ask myself, now, how much of what I shared deep down was really for my own benefit and “call” to consistent action. And how much of it was out of a desire to help people like you who may be struggling. I think both to be true.
It’s been a while since I’ve read it but I hold fast and still firmly believe everything stated here. You can do anything you want!
As of today I have great ranking on many of my websites and look forward to getting my Clickbank check every time my sales meet my threshold.
Building websites is the bread and butter of making money online and I’ve learned a great deal over the past year. Don’t let this “necessity” scare you.You HAVE to build sites, optimize them and just let them go. In fact my top money maker is not a fancy site at all, but, it does provide the “content” and optimization necessary to draw traffic and thus,,, sales.
I’ve expanded over the last four months and I’m now helping local business owners by building well optimized targeted websites. This was a natural progression for me as building sites for myself was required. Now I get to make additional income on a whole other level. Coupled with the “passive income” from targeted product sites makes it all the better.
I’m working my business full time now and I’m having a blast.
If there is one thing I would reiterate now that I have a little “more” experience under my belt; it would be this. Decide, plain and simple. Just make the decision that nothing will stop you. And, second; Get Educated.
It’s no small secret I’m a fan of Chris Farrell , Jennifer Ledbecker (potpiegirl) and Andrew Hansen. These are among some of the most honest and talented online marketers I know.
I got my feet off the ground with Chris Farrell, later learned how to apply my skills building websites for local businesses with Jennifers free P3 course and enjoyed plenty of free stuff from Andrew Hansen too.
There is a ton of free information out there. Get all you can read. Read all you can get. Take action and you’ll see. ‘You can do anything you want.’
