The internet marketing world offers so many opportunities but what can you do to earn yourself some sustainable cougar cash fast?

Invest in Yourself

Sad to say but I don’t know anyone succeeding in this field who has not invested in themselves first.

Here is the investment catch thought you have to sift through all the information around to find what is worthy of your investment. Fast Web Formula News is a blog that offers some advice and leads on that.

Basically it is dependent on finding a good teacher and mentor. As I have said in previous posts I chose James Schramko for that role and believe he has fulfilled it. Read the rest of this entry

Finding focus is moving forward to success.

My steps to find my focus

1. It’s Not About the Website
In it’s not about the website James Schramko covers research factors essential to increasing your business online. He also covers the essential types of traffic and how to get loads of it. How to create a mafia offer that is hard to refuse and the one word technique that doubled his business in a month are hard to pass up.

James Schramko created this product after a Billionaire Adventure Club in which he spent his time answering the same questions for entrepreneurs. The big tips he gave out that contributed to his success and those of his students are covered in this product.

For me, it helped me just pare back and focus. To think about what I wanted to do, where I wanted to be, and how I could really leverage internet marketing to get there. Read the rest of this entry

Whilst I was creating a serious lack of success with my internet marketing I was trying to clear myself of my first client.

There were a number of reasons but the main being I did not have any client filters in place when I got them. I didn’t realise I could qualify my client and choose whether I wanted to work with them. I had this funny feeling I had to help everyone!

Opportunity
The biggest issue I faced after investing a lot in a few failed projects was the need to grasp at every opportunity. This is an experience that I think every new internet marketer battles whether they have succeeded, or failed, or not! There are so many different options online. Read the rest of this entry

As I mentioned in my last post I had a second failed joint venture during the time I was throwing everything I had at my Fast Web Formula affiliate pounce.

Again this failure had positives.

The Partnership
The JV was about an inspirational women’s networking group. Something not about building business but about creating connection.

I helped develop the idea that began with someone else through a synergy that was happening.

She was ready to give up at the end of the year but I could see how it could be monetized. I could see how we could make it into a much bigger and better forum for women using our ideas and internet marketing. Read the rest of this entry

The final Underground Profit System (UGPS) happened in September 2009. By this time I was timekeeping on the courses and trying to make affiliate sales.

Inexperience
I didn’t really know much about affiliate marketing. I hadn’t done enough to really know I could create any affiliate success. It was this inexperience that led to me losing my first sale.

Well I made the sale. I even signed them up through my page to be sure. What could be wrong with that you ask? The link I had added was not my affiliate link but the link straight to the sales page so I did not get a commission! That was the person I sold into the last UGPS. Read the rest of this entry

So I had made an affiliate page. I had succeeded in pushing through without giving up.

What Next?
During this time I had been dabbling in social media. I had this feeling we should be using it at work but not how! I had also had a 20 year reunion some months before and was the only person not on Facebook or so it felt. I reconnected with a guy I went to school with and entered into a joint venture.

OK so honestly it was all a bit more complex and to and fro than that! But basically I had an idea that I would do what I did at work – solutions – and help businesses create healthy growth. Read the rest of this entry

Having been on such a stop-start path to success I wanted to share with you my experiences.

The Beginning
I had a huge blew with my boss. I felt like I was giving everything I had to that business to the detriment of every other aspect of my life.

As you can imagine feeling accused of a whole stack of stuff I didn’t feel really happy about the situation. However I remained as calm as I could and I made the decision to find a resource within myself to allow me to let go and move on. This was not easy but I not only succeeded I felt a huge sense of relief and like a weight had lifted from me.

So I asked for a new opportunity and the eyes to see it. Read the rest of this entry

Do you ever get so busy you lose sight of your priorities?

I do, and have. It has been so long since I’ve written here. Fast Web Formula happened back in March and what an amazing event it was but it pushed me through so many new barriers.

Don’t you love the way you can go to an event, have a fantastic time but even while you’re there you can feel “your stuff” rising. You can feel the tears building just behind your eyes. Or am I the only one?

Well this happened to me. See I had a quick success after I met James Read the rest of this entry
