This Guy Loves To Party

I’ve been asked this a few times now…

How do I plan on making money online?

The truth is, I’m not sure what my main money-making strategy is going to be.  I’m working on the dreadful affiliate marketing, where you sell other people’s stuff, and am ultimately interested in selling my own digital products.

The way I see it: if I can get 3 people to give me $11 a day, every day, I have roughly hit my monthly goal of $1,000.

So that’s really what I’m aiming for, at least in the beginning: 3 people, every day, to pay me $11.  Or 5 people who pay me $7.  Or whatever.  However I can achieve this, I’m going to do it.  And then, in the future, I’ll multiply my efforts by taking advantage of outsourcing — of course, when I actually know what I’m doing and know what will make me money.

But do you want to know the absolute best way to make money online?  This is something I can tell you right now.  In fact, this applies to just about any goal you want to accomplish.

Find someone who already does it, is good at it, and ask them for help.  Show them what you’ve done already — prove to them that you’re interested in actually working for your goal — and ask what next step you need to take.  You’d be surprised how many accomplished people want to help you when you show that you’re a driven, hard-working person.

A lot of people, when trying a new venture like making money online, dive in alone, get frustrated, and give up.

But think of how much more effective it would be if there were someone there who could look over your work and immediately tell you what is and is not working.  You’ll end up working more productively, more effectively, and reach your goals a lot faster.

That’s the power of an effective mentor.

So if you want to make money online — or really want to do anything — and want a sure way of doing it, what I can recommend to you is: find a mentor.
