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

I made my big investment in 2009 and learnt internet marketing, quit my job and started a business. I am still learning, still growing, still changing and refining. Every day I realise how far I still have yet to go. The big thing for me is that I have taken action and by taking action have opened myself to a new circle of women all taking action.

I am so over small business women right now. I am bored by them, tired of them. Frustrated enough to admit I actually prefer dealing with men in business. Why? Because most of the men I know at least take action, are willing to take a risk. OK it can be a bit bull in a china shop. It can be misdirected but at least they are doing something!

The women I have been around at networking and the like have so many reasons not to succeed I can’t be bothered listening anymore. There is a world of opportunity out there women! In fact now I can understand why whenever I look at people speaking at events, the great minds of business, the mentors of internet marketing and online business they are almost all men.

The alarm rings, your arm which feels like a thousand pounds, reaches over hoping to slap it into silence. You drag yourself out of bed only to notice the little person standing beside you with that face. You know the face, the one that says “Mommy. I’m sick.”

Great, your child needs you but your boss is on your back, your heart feels the tug of war.

STOP! There is an alternative to this insanity; the rapidly growing industry of women working online. Yes, you can work and you can still be with your child.  Amazing, but true, and there has never been a better time to catch the wave than now. Okay, so that is a definite plus on the side of women working online, but we’re not all moms, so what are the reasons that all women making money online will tell you about:

• You already possess tremendous knowledge, your boss taps into it every day and you help put money in his pocket and you get what’s left over. How about using your knowledge for your sake and your profit? There are so many businesses online that you can connect to or develop on your own. You’re the boss, you create the rules!
• Lower cost of the commute. Cars, trains, buses, cabs, planes, ferries they all have their hand in your wallet before you even enter the office and they are waiting for you again after you have put in a full day. Working from your home eliminates that expense which adds up to quite a lot of money for each year of employment.
• The chance to use what you are passionate about to create your dream business. If being your own boss wasn’t great enough, can you imagine the feeling of actually working each day and profiting by something you love. This is real ladies, the time is now.
• Everything you probably need to begin your own online business is already in your home. A computer, a printer, a phone. Perhaps you need to add a fax perhaps not, either way overhead is at a minimum. You can begin at a comfortable speed and when you are in the position, you will be ready to fly.

Women making money online, can you imagine how great the impact is on their lives, and how it can affect yours?  Here is the chance to fulfill your desires to make a living on your own terms, using your own skills and passion. Tomorrow, when that alarm goes off, before you go to slug it, think about how nice it would be to simply throw it away. The choice is yours, go for it!

Women are not new to the marketing world, and as the business tide moves in a new direction, women are moving with it. Men are not the only ones becoming millionaires online -  there are many women making money online who are (sometimes very quietly) making pots of money.

What is it that makes business women great, and a different experience than it is for men?

While obviously both genders have their strengths and weaknesses, the resilience women possess due to the very nature of their lives becomes a valuable tool in the quick moving world of the internet.
What are some of the differences that women bring to internet marketing?

1. Women have had to compete in the business world and create a niche for themselves. They have done that, and done it well. It is inspirational to hear and read the countless true stories of women making millions in a world once dominated by men.
2. Incredible passion that drives women in all phases of their lives creates the perseverance needed to see the big picture concerning making money online.
3. Women are excellent networkers. They have a strong sense of motivation and kinship, this quality often includes the desire of taking others with them on these journeys. Those that contribute to their success reap the benefits of reciprocation.
4. Confidence. A n important strength that involves believing in themselves, their goals and the desire to share that with others.
5. Women in business, and other areas as well, often possess a sense of generosity that give off the aura of approachability, not that men do not possess this quality, but it is a very common asset in women.

The very characteristics that are so often associated with women are the same characteristics that have helped them to become successful in their own right. These traits are also the ones that have reached out and lent a hand to others, creating a sisterhood in a business world once dominated by men. Women making money online is a perfect example of this very sequence of actions at its best. It has propelled them past the many obstacles laid out by society and those they have conquered. Women, like men who are successful in the world of finance possess strength, intellect, and stick-to-itiveness.
Reading about successful women and attending events run by business women for women is a beneficial way to learn more about all the internet has to offer. Take the steps towards financial independence and start enjoying all of the benefits that will follow.
