Make Real Income Online - Secrets To Their Success

I’ve been an internet web designer and marketer for over 10 years. I decided to get involved on the Internet back in 1993 when not to many people had even heard about the Internet outside of people involved in the IT industry. At that time in the IT industry the Internet was called the “super information highway.”

I remember flying back to Philadelphia on a business trip from Seattle. On the flight I had a conversation with a lady who was a systems administrator for a competitor of the company I worked for at the time. The main topic of our discussion was the Internet. Being the geek that I am, I as very excited about the prospect of being able connect to information sources from all over the world from my office computer. I never liked sales because of the inherent nature of the business with its high rejection rates and having to deal with so many people with different attitudes and issues of life. So sales were a turn-off for me. I was a multi-media production specialist and loved doing that kind of work. But the possibility of being able to sell products and services online with just the click of a link or a button really intrigued me.

During the in flight discussion I expressed my excitement about the entrepreneurial potential of an online business start up. About a year after this flight I started my Internet business. The only problem I had to face at the beginning was learning how to conduct business online. I didn’t have a clue about where to begin. If you are reading this blog you may be in the same position I was in when I first started. If that is you, read on because I have some valuable information to share with you.

I had to figure out how to get a web site, how to build it, where to get products or services to sell, and how to advertise them on line. So many different aspects of this venture were new to me and mind you the web was in its infancy and there were no web gurus or experts for me to get any information or instruction from at the time. I was virtually on my own. But I trudged on. For one year I failed at every attempt to make any money. I heard about Amazon.com during this time and also that they offered a program that would allow interested people to sell books from their web sites for sale on your own web site for a commission. That sounded like a great idea to me and I quickly signed up. Amazon.com was the first company to offer a program like this that is now known as an associate program or affiliate program as some companies call them today. They were the first but many companies began to quickly follow suit. Now there are literally thousands of these programs being offered by thousands of companies that conduct business online. If you do a search on Google, Yahoo or MSN you will find thousands of them using the search terms associate programs or affiliate programs.

At that time I found a software company from Australia that offered one of these programs and I signed up with them. I remember getting my first sale. My first check for that sale was for $6.00. That may not have excited you but it got me excited because it let me know that I could make money online. I realized that if I could make $6.00 online I could make $6,000.00 online and even more. Within 6 months I got another check. This one was for $280.00. From there it just got better and better. I eventually quit my job and have been full time in this business ever since. So what does this all mean to you? As I said earlier I started out disadvantaged because there was no one to teach me anything about how to start and operate an online business. You on the other hand don’t have that disadvantage. What if I told you that there is a web site where there are tons of testimonials from people just like you and me? People who at some point in their respective careers grew tired of allowing someone else to tell them how much they were worth. People who grew tired of letting someone else assign an hourly rate to be the determination of their worth. These are people who are now making excellent incomes from online businesses. There is such a web site and I’m going to tell you where to find it in just a minute unless you are so excited by now that you want to skip the rest of this article and jump to the bottom of this blog and click on the link. Hold on for just a second. The testimonials you’ll read on this site are unique because these successful entrepreneurs tell you step-by-step everything they did to have success. They tell you what tools and services they used, how they advertised, what worked and what didn’t work. You won’t find testimonials from Fortune 500 companies but testimonials from people like you and me who grew tired of the rat race and did something about it. Are you ready? Click here and read on.
