Instant Success - Yeh Right.


Join our affiliate-program and make your fortune overnight.

Sound familiar ?

How many times have you received email to say that by joining company X you will have instant success.

And how many websites suggest by using their systemyou can build an instant list of thousands.

It is possible for the major players on the Internet, butwhat they don't tell you is that most of the people these "players" signup in a new Internet company are already on their opt-in list.

Here are some well used concepts used in promotingnew Internet Companies.

Believe it or not !

1. It will only take you 5 hours each week.

Correct if,

(a) you only want to earn a few $`s

(b) you already have a large optin list to promote to.

(c) you have M-oney to invest in advertising.

(d) you are totally organized, focused and a natural marketer.

What they don`t tell you.

With commitment and the proper training, yes it is possible.

2. Its easy, anyone can make M-oney online.

But only if you have some business background or theCompany supplies you with quality training, supportand any other tools you need to promote their product.You also need a supportive sponsor and up-line, who arewilling to help when needed.

3. Its soooo easy that everyone is do-ing it.

"Slight Exaggeration" here as only about 20% of US familiesor adults are currently members of Internet companies. There are many other people who are promoting Amway and other Companies but not over the internet. It is estimated that 50% of Americans will have had, or will be operating some sort ofbusiness from the comfort of home by the end of next year.

Most experts suggest only about the top 5% of InternetMarketers are making a good income and another 10%are part time earners.

4. By working over the Internet you will be able to workyour own hours.

Yes this statement is true, but you still have to "work"

Yes you have more flexibility on when you work, say earlyin the morning or in the evening if you are part time. Youstill need to put in the hours, so having a plan and a set of goalsis an advantage. If you don`t reach your goals then you willneed to re-access them, are they realistic or do you need to increase the hours you work to succeed or take a different approach.

5. Our system guarantees success.

What is success, my idea on success will differ from yours.

Many websites offer a number of tools and provide promotion material but not everyone knows how to best utilize them. Thisis where training and support is a must. Provide it to your downline and expect it from your up-line.

Ongoing quality training and support are the two most under estimated "tools" or requirements many companies "say" they provide but either not everyone has access or knows how to use them.

6. Its so easy you will make m-oney even while you sleep.

This is a fact, the Internet does not sleep, but you will only make m-oney from sales or signups if you put in the effort.

7. Its cool because I don`t have to talk with people face to face.

Sure you can sit at your computer and promote your website,send out emails to prospects, network on ICQ and Ryze etc...

But you will find the big players are always talking to prospects either on the phone or while at the shops and gas station.

I personally have my ICON Communicator open most of the daywhile I am online and most days I will have a person (guest) who I have never meet log in, so I have to know the product or servicesI am promoting to be able to share or answer any questions mymay guest has.

The more practice you have at speaking to strangers the more comfortable and at ease you become. And this is coming from someone who doesn`t like public speaking.

Practice makes perfect.

8. F`R`E`E

One of the most powerful 4 letter words ever devised by man.

Can you promote on the internet for f`ree.

The hidden costs. You need a computer, power to run the computer, an Internet connection, office supplies....

Yes it is possible to promote your chosen company orservice for minimum cost, but it will usually take longerto get those positive results. Time is m-oney. What is yourtime worth? Any business requires time and usually some investment to get off the ground.

9. Build yourself a website and watch the sales roll in.

I recommend every Internet Marketer should have their own website for a number of reasons. First is that you areable to create introduction pages to companies, productsor services. You are then able to send out email using aURL or website link that won`t be filtered by ISP`s as they are known to filter or delete email that contains affiliated links.

Secondly there are very few search engines that you can list your affiliated website with. So by having your ownDomain and website you are able to list it with search engines. But again by being listed does not necessarilyguarantee you sales.

10. You "will" receive spillover.

Some companies and individuals promote to prospectsthat they will receive spillover.

I must be really missing something here as I can count onmy fingers the number of people I have received in my downline as spillover in 3 years on the internet.

Yes spillover does happen for some, but don`t count on it.

Some suggestions.

When starting any business you need to have a plan ofaction and a maximum budget you can spend on productsor services to advertise and promote your business.

Register a domain and create a website.

Only consider joining companies where you have full accessto support, regular training, provide popular or unique, sort after products that offer a residual income with a positivecompensation plan.

A company I can happily recommend to any first time marketers is ItsYourNet. They offer special trainingson building websites, publishing Ezines, using ICQ fornetworking along with marketing and even supply youf`ree of cost, top quality software to keep your computer safe.

The ItsYourNet "back office area" has an ever increasinglist of promotional material and resources.

The product range is also being added to, in the next week we will see the release of the 3D Virtual web system andthe 3D virtual mall will soon be opened for business too.

If you want to learn more about the ItsYourNet 0pportunityvisit http://main-10534pg.ItsYourNet.com become a f`reeaffiliated member and get access to the a truly amazing 0pportunity. One that is suitable for new and experiencedonline marketers alike.

One of the pluses is the website id ItsYourNet provides youto use in email. Each member receives a sub-domain for each page on your affiliated website. This is of real benefit when sendingemail to prospects. This allows your email get past most ISP filters.
