I bet that title caught your eye. Is it something you have felt while staring at your computer screen at 2 a.m.? Sometimes you just need someone else to push you away from this stupid internet marketing bug. After all, there is too much competition because everyone is doing it.
Whine, cry, do what you have to trick yourself into believing that your life sucks and you deserve a break. And while you do this hundreds of people will be getting down to work. They will be beating the odds and making enough money online to quit their day job.
Am I there? Nope. But, I know, if you are reading this article, you’re not
Too many nights spent surfing the net for that get rich quick scheme that works for you. The one that hundreds have tried already, so you can come along and fail with the rest of them. Well, why not stop following the pack.
How about learning all you can about internet marketing and instead of writing about marketing, you use the skills you learned to write about something you know and selling it. After that is the whole point of learning marketing: to sell a new product. You don’t learn it just so you can paraphrase what you learned and create the next great ebook on internet marketing. There are enough of them.
And don’t give me ,”But I don’t have anything to write about.” Everyone has something that they can write about that others are begging to read. All you have to do is get started.
It starts one word at a time. Think of all the things you have had to do in your life that were scary when they popped into you mind. Maybe figuring out a way to balance two jobs and going to school. Well, if you were able to do it, there are plenty of people out there who would like to know how.
One thing I would like to know is how to buy a house without getting ripped off. I have rented all of my life, but now I am about to have a child. It’s time to get a house and I don’t have the first clue where to get started. There are just too many lenders and real estate agents out there to know where to start.
Plus, I just realized that the market for houses is really unbalanced. A house that sells for $150,000 in Phoenix costs $80,000 in Kansas City. This I found out by accident. That’s the type of info anyone buying a house would like to know.
As far as things I know, let’s see. I have worked in construction and I know that by the time a consumer has paid for remodeling, the price of everything has tripled. Something as simple as a door installation could cost you $200 in just labor, when the job itself is really simple. There are hundreds of ideas just waiting there. Some that I have already used.
Take a look at your background and pick something you know better than the people around you. You could have the next best seller on you hands. If a 24 year old that I know made $600 a day doing this, I know I can. In fact, I’d be embarrassed if I couldn’t.
