The Journey Continues

In the last post I said I had found out that you can build a business using free tools, software, e-books and other items.  Yes you can start out with no money and over time build an Internet Marketing Business.

The thing to remember is that even though it is called free it is not free.   You can invest your money and if you have a good road map build you a business.  You can also invest your time using tools that you do not have to pay for with money to build your business

You must understand though you are still investing in your business.  Instead of investing money you are investing time.  Nothing is free no matter what it says.

As we go through this I will be showing you ways that you can build your business with very little out of pocket expense.  I will not show you how to build a business without spending any money because you are not going to be able to do that.

At some point and time you are going to invest money in your business but you want to invest money that you have already earned using the methods we will be covering not money from your pocket.

A good rule of thumb is if you money in your PayPal or Alert Pay account that you have earned then it is okay to invest it.  If you don’t have money you earned then don’t invest unless it is an absolute necessity.

Later on you will also be investing money in your education.  You have to learn how to be an effective marketer and some of the training will cost you. No, you will not pay me but there is some training I will recommend that you do have to pay for.

If you find something you want real bad then earn the money to pay for it.

Do not ever, ever, ever, ever, invest money that you need to pay the rent, buy food, and pay the mortgage or any other of life’s necessities.

You are starting a business to make money and get out of a hole or get away from a job (job stands for just over broke) not to help you go broke.  Remember that, it is important.

As we go through this I am going to be referring you to websites with a lot of good information.  Why do I refer you somewhere elsewhere?  Because there is a ton of information out there that will help you learn what you need to learn.  Why would I want to redo what has already been done.

Will I make money referring you somewhere else?  Sometimes yes, but not always.  If I think it will help you even though I do not make a penny off of it I will still tell you about it.

With that said and hopefully understood then let’s get started.

First thing you needed to do is what was mentioned in the last post.

“Write down why you are building an Internet business.”  Here is a good place to go to see what other people are putting down for their WHY.

Read the comments and you will see what other people or wanting to do and maybe it will help you focus on your why.  To make more money is not a why. If you make a penny you have made more money.

The second step, for the next thirty days do not buy anything unless you know exactly how it will help you make money within the next thirty days.  No buying the next greatest most wonderful super secret from a millionaire broke deep sea diver that will make you money while you sleep launch.

The third step, go through the emails you are receiving that you signed up to so that you could get a free whatever and the ones that are just sales letters and not giving you useful information, UNSUBSCRIBE from them.

The fourth step is to go through your hard drive and bookmarks and list every e-book (with a note beside the brand able e-books, if you don’t know what a brand able e-book is we will talk about it) every affiliate site you joined and every traffic program you are part of.

We will use that in the next part of the journey

That is enough to work on today we will continue the journey in the next post.
