So, You Think You Can Be An Internet Marketer...

By Tom Harvey

GREAT!! BUT FIRST ANALYZE YOUR MOTIVES AND BE AWARE OF THE PITFALLS: FIRST, THE PLUS FACTORS:

INDEPENDENCE: A life long dream, for most, is to have independence. Getting rid of that midnight to 7 or 7-3 or 9-5 work at you old conventional job is achieved by internet marketing. You most defintely can reach this level of independence.

FREEDOM: You now have the freedom to move about as you wish without the hassles of fighting the crowds, wheter it is clothes shopping, grocery getting, or kicking it down at the beach or whrever. So much freedom in just picking you time and taking off. This goes hand and hand with independence.

COMMUTE: We all want to get rid of that work comute. For sure, the commute from your bedroom to your home office is short and the commute is figured in minutes or even seconds as opposed to getting in the car, on a bus, train or whatever.

INCOME: The potential for earning big money on the internet is limitless. Much better than that 9-5 job you have.

PERSONAL SATISFACTION: Once you start generating even a small amount of income as a direct result of your effort, you will have a great sense of satisfaction and increased sense of self worth.

As you know it is not all sunshine everyday. So here we can start to reflect on the time wasters, traps, and pitfalls:

DISCIPLINE: You must look at this new venture in the following way: A: you are now in your own business and you must treat it as such. B: Initially you will probably spend longer hours figuring out the whole process. Dont forget... That this is new and there are dozens of new things to learn.

Learning how to manage your time is key. The amount of discipline as to how you are use your time is a concept in its own right. You time and computer now are for money making potential and "time is money" for you. So, realize this and how much potential that these two have for you in making money online.

INDEPENDENCE: When you have chosen the right program, product or whatever that is now generating income for you along with mastering the net. This is when you will get your independence.

FREEDOM: The freedom to come and go at will is always there for you. But, and this is a big BUT for every hour you spend away from the computer, you must consider making that time up at other times during the day. Be it very early in the morning or later at night. Remember: The results that you get from your new Internet Marketing Business will be a direct result of the effort that you put into your new business.

TENACITY and DETERMINED MIND SET: It is wise to remember, from the little acorn, so grows the mighty oak. This internet marketing business could, and I say could, take off like a rocket in just a few short days. Be realistic: plan on a few months. Anywhere from 3 to 6 months before you see any tangible results.

DONT GET DISCOURAGED: Just when you think that you cannot look at the computer one more time and all your efforts are producing no results, give it ONE MORE TRY. You are now at the onset of turning a corner and making the income that you have worked so hard for. - 16003
