The most common question among new Warriors is "Where Do I Start?" The information provided here will help you answer that question. Here are some key points to remember:
Time is your most precious commodity! Use it very wisely. So...learn only those strategies which you can put to use immediately before you spend time on the other, more time-consuming ones. Your main goal should be to get some cash coming in as quickly as possible. I recommend that you immediately read the following three ebooks before you do anything else! (They are all available to you for free at the Warriors download site):
Start making some money! Keeping the time factor in mind, you should start with projects that are simple to set up, take up the least amount of your time to execute, and produce the quickest results (profits.) We all have our own unique goals and ideas we would like to pursue. That is what makes us unique. However, if you don't think that your ideas and projects will produce results quickly enough, put them aside, just for now, and work on the projects that will generate cash quickly. After you have set up a few (or even one) profit-generating systems in place and have some cash coming in, you can then tackle the bigger, more complex projects and goals of your own. (I discuss more about this in my Marketing Newsletter. To subscribe for free to the newsletter, just follow the instructions provided at the end of the Email Marketing Strategies ebook, available at the Warrior site.) You're now probably anxious to find out what the best project to start with is, right? No problem.
Here is one of the best and ways to start generating a profit immediately: Sign up with some powerful affiliate programs and promote them like crazy! What do I mean by "affiliate program?" An affiliate program is a program where a product owner allows you to promote his/her product and offers you a share of the profits. The best affiliate programs usually offer at least 50% or more of the profits to you. Why promote an affiliate program? Here's why:
So, you can start making some money while you're working on your own website, your own products, and your credit card setup. No time is wasted while you're doing all of this. Having your own product to sell is ideal. But while you're working on that, you can be making some money with affiliate programs. All you have to do is get people to the affiliate sites and receive the checks from all the sales generated through your traffic!
Allen Says, the genius behind The Warrior Group, has been warning us of this common mistake for a while and it's wise to listen! Don't try to learn "everything" there is about marketing and the Internet, and don't be in a rush to buy and learn every new marketing trick/technique that comes around promising great results. The Warrior's site is loaded with a lot of powerful information to begin with so start there. Still, it may take some time before you can go through everything at the site and learn/apply them all. The site will be there so relax. Spend most of your time on the things that you can put to use 'right now' and which continue to work long-term, namely the strategies outlined in the 3 ebooks I have recommended above. You should also pay attention to the "Warrior Updates" you receive by e-mail. If you haven't subscribed to the updates newsletter yet, you can do so now by going to the Warriors members site. It will include some great tips, promotional tools or some powerful product/affiliate information. - - -
Getting a Website The next thing you need to do is to set up a website of your own. It is ideal to get your own website with your own domain name. My first recommendation is Host4Profit. It is a great package with lots of features and benefits. The cost is only $24.95 per month. You can join through your own affiliate ID or you can join through this link. The above is a great price. However, if you want something cheaper, you can get a very beginner site through a Warrior who offers a great, affordable web hosting service. She is also a good friend of mine so I know she's reliable. Her name is Teresa King. If you'd like to have your new website hosted by Teresa, you can contact her at this email address: teresa@netswan.com If you are not comfortable with getting your own site just yet, you can use free web space available through various sources on the Internet. Just go to any search engine (such as yahoo.com) and search for "free web space." Most of these sources will have their own banners on pages also. That's a drawback of using free web pages. Next, you will need a webpage designing software. There are many webpage designing tools available to you. Some are also free. Just go to these websites and do a search: One of the better free ones to use is AOL Press. It is also available for free at the above sites or at www.aol.com
I have seen a gentleman using free web space provided on the Internet to host his web pages. His sales page is pretty good but the site is just straight text, no graphics. He uses Clickbank to accept orders for his product. And the best part is...he makes money doing it! What's my point? Just this: having a professional-looking web site will definitely increase your sales. BUT...don't wait till everything on your site looks perfect before you start promoting it. As long as all the links and order systmes are work, start promoting right now! Make some money. While you're doing that, you can keep making improvements to your site, product, and so on. So, get your creative juices flowing and... Design the next masterpiece!
