I have always battled with ideas how to make money online, the truth in this matter is, Most people struggle with this idea, however, I have always had a different approach with this, create a valuable asset, the money will come later, give the customer better value and benefits and hope they will buy from you again and again.
But it never works out like this.
I have prided myself on being the “Outside the box sort of person”, which gives me a different angle. you see I don’t just do it for making money, I do it because I like to help people, finally try and break the mold that we are all portrayed to rip people off, take your money and do a runner, My moral standing just would not let me do this.
through my extensive self-training watching numerous youtube videos over and over, ( There is so much knowledge here youtube alone is just like pandora’s box) I learned that everyone has issues with traffic, after all, if you have no traffic, what’s the point of having a URL regardless of how good your link is, if you don’t have eyes on your link then what’s the point, you will not get anyone interested. or the exposure you require to have your link shown to so many people that a small percentage of that traffic may or will purchase or act on your call to action.
I have a GIG I run on my Fiverr which drives traffic or leads depending on the level you opt-in at, the prices start from $5 to $20 dollars and the range of traffic in leads is 180K to One million, I make a passive income with this alone. so this keeps me happy but just once in a while you get odd people replying and thinking that when they pay just $5 for a gig, which I have already sent to 220K of people they expect 180K of people to buy and enroll on there list, the truth is there is no such thing ( I wish there was I would have my Lexus sports 2.2 back lol but that’s another story one day that I might expose) you see the plain and simple matter is you will be lucky if you get 10 to 100 people to click or be inquisitive to see your link. but remember you only paid $5 that’s why I enroll the links into a system where they remain there for around one month to a year giving them every chance that they will get more leads and more clicks to there website.
even with the right tuition they still don’t listen
before anyone takes out a gig with me I am always specific,
I have a formula that works, it simple all they have to do is supply me with their URL Link, Tell me what the Niche is, supply me with a landing page, I tell them the best way for this to work, is to create a bridge page with a free offer, then a opt in to there call to action or paid website, the irony of this what I really need to create is a bridge to my understanding and their customers understanding, also a language barrier remember these people that are buying from you may be outsourcing, fiver drop shipping, using you as their traffic master then reselling the link if they where I would feel privileged,
My Little Rant!
But under no circumstances, could I promise, you are going to get all people to opt-in, I think this is madness for people to even think this, for example, if you were to use solo ads you pay $30 for one hundred leads effectively you will get if you are lucky 15 to 30% join your list but remember that’s only if you use a bridge page or landing page. chances are the lead has had so many links sent that you will be lucky to get them to open it. unless they are a micro worker paid to do so for less than one cent per click. ( I bet you did not know that even existed it does) or a bot that trolls the internet for clicks so your link looks like it has been opened a lot of times. or even worse you create a landing page with a call to action ie. product that you are selling for $7 per copy you get a few sales the solo vendor sucks you into buying a $500 package hoping you will get a lot more. ( only to find with a careful tracking system in place that they purchased your product or have other people employed to do so), so you gear up to a bigger package of solo ads. but don’t get me wrong there are really great solo providers out there, but just like everything else in life there are always going to be scammers as well
Remember I am only talking about someone that has only paid $5.
The worse that can happen
You get dreaded – the Buyer wants to cancel their order, even though you have already done everything they have asked for, even though they have not followed your advice on how to promote their link correctly, they now expect the hour’s work you have just done, that you should return their money because they did not get results, what has it done to you? you feel like you have ripped someone off, you feel a failure, you feel like you don’t want to do this anymore, these are just a few things running through your head right at that very split second they send that post to you.
Ok Heres my solution
As you know if you have read about me, I am a plumbing and heating engineer, amongst other things, my job is to do what other people can’t, so I don’t go down easy, I said to the customer if you don’t have a leads magnet let me give you one! for free, with the opportunity of creating adverts, built into this little app, that is amazing. ( when I saw this I saw the potential, grabbed it with both hands, and set up and monetized it. )
I offered to give the customer this as a free gift that they can send to their list or even build it into the link they are trying to promote, even though it’s monetized to me. but I did not think of this at the time! after all the lead magnet is free.
Priceless
Below is a fellow affiliate that got this sent to him on his Facebook page, people are unbelievable, here is a marketer, just built a training program.
What’s the mentality of the customer, or do they have one, are they brainwashed by the recent reports, posts that they may see every time they look at an SOS (Shiny Object Syndrome) is it their fault, after all, most top affiliates are pushing out not very good content, that has been rinsed and repeated because it’s made so many sales a few years ago, you see they just rediscover the product adapt and improve it, push it out to the buyer, with one click system push and click system, copy and paste earn and make money in 24hours $3000 WAKE UP PEOPLE THIS DOES NOT EXIST! but the customer is told it does, I think affiliate marketing is like a magician working with their hands you are fully transfixed on what the left hand is doing to get you to buy into the idea there is magic there, but don’t see the reality of whats going on with the right hand which is where very relist should be looking,
Did you know that’s one of the reason’s I built limitless – what is it? – it’s my free Facebook group with real ways shown to you in my training how to make money online with a custom area with paid tools access which is even better, soon I will be able to help you promote your products,
the moral of this blog is don’t give up believing in what you are doing, be true to yourself so you can be honest to your buyer.
