My First 3 Months as an Internet Marketer

WordPress blogging Oct 23, 2013 by Johnny

Hahaha, I remember my first 3 months. I thought it would be easy to….

  • sell stuff online — NOPE (nobody buys from you unless they know you…even if you’re way cheaper)
  • become an affiliate — NOPE (nobody buys from you unless they know you)
  • make money off Adsense — NOPE (I never made more than $50/month)

I gave up and started a REAL business…one with a valuable service/product…one with real customers. One that required daily interactions with other people and constant work to ensure everyone is happy (employees & customers). And then using that knowledge, I was able to become successful when I tried making money online again.
