Keeping You Poor?

Keeping You Poor?

"Thinking like a poor person will keep you poor. Thinking like a wealthy person will make you wealthy. I would like to show you exactly what the differences between the two ways of thinking are and how you can use them in your favour." by Douglas Kruger

"Being rich is not normal: most people never achieve wealth in their lifetime. The very word ‘rich’ describes a state beyond the median, and therein lies an important lesson. 

To become rich, you will have to think radically differently from the way most people around you think. Do you know what those specific differences may be? " click here to get your copy " Is Your Thinking Keeping You Poor" by Douglas Kruger

Right now, somebody an agency refers to himself as an associate “Internet marketer” is sitting in his chamber, wearing nothing, however, his lingerie, riant at however arduous bloggers work for the way very little cash we tend to build.

We drive ourselves to creative exhaustion by expecting ourselves to pump out a never-ending stream of remarkable content — a stream that, even in the best of cases, only pulls in a couple hundred bucks a month in advertising revenue.

And the guy in his undies?
He’s one of the thousands or even tens of thousands of people making six figures online every year. Sure, he worked hard in the beginning, but not anymore. Now he’s connected and focused on growing revenue, not creating an endless supply of free content.

Compare that story to that of most bloggers, and you have to laugh. To say we are overworked and underpaid is an understatement.

The guy in his undies thinks this is especially funny, and justifiably so. He’s only half as smart as you, but he’s making 10 times more money.

So he laughs, not just at you, but at all bloggers. All bloggers, that is, except a tiny handful that has figured out something that makes them wealthy.

One of those bloggers is Brian. Soon, I’ll be one too. We know something that most of the blogging community has yet to figure out.

Is your "do-your-self" work ethic really helping you?

As a whole, we have a tendency to bloggers ar an autonomous bunch. we have a tendency to sometimes write all our own content, optimize it for search engines, put on the market with social media, and so craft individual responses to any or all of the ensuing comments and emails. a number of US even style our own theme and manage our own server.

The justification? =  The price.

Most people can’t afford to rent employees of writers, marketers, and client support personnel to assist the US with our journal. Sure, we’d like to build a complete employee around it at some point, however without delay, it’s simply a hobby that you’re slowly nurturing into one thing larger. Doing it all yourself looks to create sense.

One common downside with the homemade work ethic is that you simply pay most time doing all of the fundamentals that you simply ne'er get to the extremely vital tasks. within the case of bloggers, we have a tendency to invest all of our time into obtaining attention, however, several people ne'er get around to monetizing that spotlight.

You see, inventive energy could be a finite resource. you'll most likely summon enough to write down many quality posts, however, once you’ve done that, there’s no inventive energy left for any price else. It doesn’t matter however arduous you push yourself. once you’re out, you’re out.

This solution, ironically, isn’t working harder. It’s working less. And to find out how we need to look no further than the aforementioned Internet marketer in his undies. He’s perfected it.

How to Make Millions Online (or Anywhere Else)

Compare bloggers to Internet marketers, and you’ll notice one stark difference. Smart Internet marketers don’t do anything by themselves. They prefer to do part of the work, and then partner with someone else to do the rest of it.

For instance, the hottest topic in Internet marketing right now is product launches. The basic idea is that you create a product, partner with all of the leaders in your industry to promote it, and then sit back as the sales start pouring in.

The other hot topic is affiliate marketing. In this model, you don’t actually create anything to sell. Instead, you promote the products of other people in exchange for a commission on each sale.

Notice the similarity? In both cases, no one is doing all of the work.

It’s no coincidence. Building a successful Internet business is a huge undertaking, and it’s insane to do it all yourself. If you’re a beginner, the only way you can succeed is to focus on part of the process and leave the rest to your partners.

That’s the major reason why product launches and affiliate marketing are so popular. They reduce the myriad of tasks involved in Internet marketing down to something a handful of people can manage.

Marketing JVs and affiliate programs are pretty typical. There are many other aspects of partnering that get really creative (and lucrative).

The Missing Ingredient for Blogging Success

Have you noticed that everything Brian does these days is a partnership?

For Teaching Sells, he partnered with Tony Clark. For Thesis, he partnered with Chris Pearson. For Lateral Action, he partnered with Mark McGuinness and Tony Clark (again).

Some of you may even remember Tubetorial, another collaboration between Brian and Chris Pearson. They sold it for six figures after six months of part-time work.

So what does he do? He partners do.

Partnering is the missing ingredient for blogging success. Yes, you can start a blog on your own. Yes, you can make it popular by yourself. Yes, you can stay involved in it forever. But if you ever want to profit from it, you need to partner with other people.

Brian didn’t monetize Copyblogger by stuffing it full of ads. Instead, he used the visibility of being an A-list blogger to attract a talented group of partners so he could create relevant products and services for the audience he attracted.

Of course, that’s easier said than done, right? Certainly making money online is a lot more complicated than starting a blog and spreading the word that you’re looking for partners.

After all, it took two-and-a-half years before Copyblogger started generating six-figures-a-month as a business unit. Luckly, we’ve got a lot more to teach on that topic.

Partnering strategies for invisible bloggers

And what if you don’t have any visibility yet?

Are there ways to use partnering to jump-start and accelerate your success? Is spending a year or two attracting attention and building an audience the only way, or are there other options?
