When I first thought about starting an online business, I didn't have any startup capital to speak of. My resources were limited and I had a full time job that was very demanding at times. Here's what almost kept me from launching my business and changing everything...
Because of my limited funds I thought that I would have to learn to be a web programmer and build websites on my own in order to make any money online. I thought I would build little websites that became big websites, but those little websites were going to have to be built by me. That almost kept me from ever getting started. Thankfully it didn't. Here's what changed my thinking.
I was talking to a friend about my ideas and about the issue I was running into with my lack of nerd skills. He knew a lot about internet marketing and he turned me on to some great information that totally changed my paradigm and allowed my ideas to become reality. Want to know what he told me?
You don't have to know anything about web programming or any other technical internet stuff to make a fortune online. If you can surf the internet, you can make boatloads of cash online.
When he told me that, I really didn't believe him at first. But, like I said before, he turned me on to some great information. After I saw what he was talking about everything changed.
Here's the truth about making money online:
1. You can make tons of money on the internet without ever building a website or paying someone else to do it for you.
2. You can make tons of money on the internet without learning html, php, mysql or any of that other nerd stuff.
3. You can make tons of money on the internet without spending one nickel on webhosting.
4. You can make tons of money on the internet without ever setting up shipping, inventory, or product resourcing.
When I found all this stuff out, I flipped a lid, and you should do. It was like someone lowered the drawbridge and let me into the castle over the moat. All the obstacles were cleared, I started making money right away and I've never looked back. You can to.
3 EASY STEPS TO MAKE
Want to start making some money online? Don't have any money, or very little money, to start with? Want to know if you really can make money with no money? Yes, you can. This article will outline 3 simple steps you need to take to start making money with no money. You can start today.
Before I get into the 3 steps to make money with no money I want you to keep a few things in mind. While it won't take you one red cent to get started you will eventually want to re-invest some of your profit back into your business so it can start growing even faster. The free method does work, but when you can you should invest in some helpful tools that can make your business grow stronger and faster.
Another thing you have to keep in mind is that the free method for making money online will be a little more labor intensive and time consuming. Again, when you can afford it you should invest in some helpful tools that can do a little of the work for you and help you grow your business even faster.
OK, now on to the 3 easy steps to make money with no money.
Step 1, you need a product. There are many places where you can find a great product to sell, but if you are brand new to Internet marketing I think the best place for you to start is an online
marketplace such as Clickbank.com. They specialize only in digital products such as: software, audios and e-books. That way the product can be immediately downloaded upon purchase, there is no inventory or overhead to hassle with.
You can sign up at Clickbank to become an affiliate and you can promote as many products as you want. It is free to sign up and you will be paid a commission on every product that you sell.
The commissions range from between 50-75% of the sale price so you can see that the money can add up pretty quickly.
Step 2 to make money with no money is to get your own website. Really this step was already taken care of. You see when you sign up to become an affiliate you will receive your very own replicated website for each product that you choose to promote. You will have your own website address which will be tracked so that any time a purchase is made on your website you will receive the commission.
Clickbank will track everything and will issue you a commission check twice a month. Again, this whole process is completely free.
Step 3 to make money with no money is to drive a steady stream of qualified people to your website. By qualified I mean anyone who is passionately interested in your product or service, and willing to pay for it.
There are many ways of generating traffic online but the one I'm going to show you is the most effective way to drive a ton of traffic, and it's absolutely free. It's called article marketing.
Article marketing is very simple. You just write an informative, helpful article about the product or service you are selling. You make sure to include pertinent keywords related to your product or service. Once your article is completed you submit it to an article directory. From there it will be placed online for anyone to see (anyone who has done a search using the keywords you entered in your article).At the bottom of the article you simply let them know that if they found the information in the article helpful and would like to know more they can visit your website. Then you include your website address. Now a word of caution here. Please don't think that you can write an article or two and retire. With article marketing saturation is the name of the game. You will need to write at least 20 articles to get a nice flow of traffic. Of course, the number of articles will vary greatly depending on the demand and competition for the products you are promoting, but 20 is a good starting point.
There you have it, the 3 easy steps to make money with no money. It really can be done. When 'they' say you have to have money to make money, they don't know what they are talking about. All you need to make money with no money is a computer and a little determination. Start now!
