Hello and welcome to Issue 16 of my 60 Minute Affiliate Newsletter.

Howdy from Colleen Slater

If this is your first issue I hope you enjoy it.  I strive to create a newsletter that’s informative and cuts to the chase and is interesting to all level of internet marketers, especially those who are yet to reach their marketing goals.

The Best And Worst

There’s no doubt I’ve been through some trials which were VERY TOUGH and CHALLENGING.  Unfortunately this happens to all of us, there are people who are in a lot worse positions than myself and that is always at the forefront of my mind.

The difficulty with my most recent obstacle is that it was close to the bone and secondly it lasted quite a few months.  I was not able to devote much time at all to my internet marketing businesses during this time.  It was a matter of simply doing the best that I could and coping with only what I could cope with at that time.

It’s always important to listen to what our minds and bodies are trying to tell us.  Sometimes we don’t listen as well as we should.  

I am incredibly grateful that even though my effort was virtually nil for three months that my online income was not affected.

This is not what I expected.  Considering I do very very little adwords or pay per click I honestly expected it to plummet because I mainly rely on free traffic methods to create my income.

So why did my income stay the same?

1. I think because of the strong foundations that I built very early on
2. Because I cross promote across a range of niches, rather than have all my money in one pie
3. Because I focus more on affiliate marketing rather than just my own products (that meant little customer support was needed during this time).
4. Maybe the universe was just being kind :O)

My upcoming goals:  

I took a quite drastic step for me this month, June, and have taken four weeks leave from my "day job".

Why?

1. I need to get my mind back on track on where it needs to be
2. All members of my family need me though they’ve not said this
3. It was time for a temporary sea change for me
4. I recently joined the gym and have a personal trainer three times a week in order to strengthen my mind, body and spirit and I wanted to take full advantage of that this month
5. I wanted to see how my income would be affected if I were to work on my online businesses for 5-6 hours a day instead of the usual ‘60 minutes’.

What Did I Learn Over The Past Few Months?

Well, normally I’m someone who likes having complete control of my ‘flag ships’ and that’s why I generally do no outsourcing at all.

However, in the midst of my recent trauma I got recommended a resource by my good mate Jeremy Kelsall (if he ever gives you advice by the way, always listen to it)….and this was an outsourcing website.  Here is the link to the website that I’ve started using quite extensively.

Here are my tips for using this outsourcing website:

• be as detailed as possible when posting your jobs so nothing is left in doubt (I have mainly used them for article writing, creating social bookmarking accounts at this stage)
• don’t hire someone straight away, communicate with them via messages/emails etc so you can get an idea of how well they speak english (many people are from overseas)
• don’t hire someone who requires an upfront payment of some kind unless they’re really the best person for the job (this payment is NOT refundable)
• i’ve had best results where i’ve not offered an hourly rate but a budget for the whole job, whether it’s $50 or $300
• keep track of people who are working on what tasks and stay on top of their projects
• if you are outsourcing blog posts/articles get them to email you their first articles to you so that you can see if they’re up to scratch (if they can’t write english well just end the assignment there and don’t pay anything) or to help them follow the guidelines you’ve set.

I have to say that i posted the same jobs on elance and the bids were over the roof compared to the outsourcing site that I use now.   Here is the link again if you are interested.

How To Come Up With Exciting Article Titles…

I actually stumbled upon this idea one day over the last few weeks while doing some research for other things.  I also get stuck coming up with exciting article titles and then I had a light bulb moment.  I thought to myself – why not go do a search for the main keyword and check out the adwords ads for the same keywords.  Talk about inspiration.  These guys are paying heaps to display their ads and some of the best ad copy is there to inspire you.  Try it out yourself.  It will really help you when you’re stuck.

Here are my top 20 tips for replacing your day job income and earning six figures online in 2009.

1. The most important part of this process is creating the right mindset. You MUST believe that you can do it. If you doubt yourself and don’t believe in yourself you’re making your goals all the more harder to reach.

2. You MUST create a plan about how you will make money online…This involves doing some research. If it’s affiliate marketing then you have to decide on whether you will pay for traffic or use free methods that take more sweat and tears.

3. You MUST be prepared to work for it. Too often I get emails from people who are expecting overnight success with little work involved. This is completely unrealistic. If you were the owner of an offline business you’d go bust overnight if you spent no time in it. It is exactly the same in the online world.

4. You MUST be prepared to put aside some money every month to grow your business. Unfortunately there seems to be the mistaken belief that you can create a massive business online with little invested back in. It’s just not possible. You must be prepared to throw some cash into your business every month – both to maintain it and to grow it.

Taking the offline world as an example, if you were to purchase a popular franchise that could cost you up to a million dollars or more. And you would have to expend that money before you saw any money back – you’d be working very hard to get that kind of money returned any time soon.

Now I’m not saying that you have to invest a million dollars into your online businesses – far from it. We’re fortunate enough that we can actually spend a couple hundred a month and get returns of thousands of dollars….It’s just a matter of being wise where you spend your money and being smart about how you reinvest it back into your business.

5. You MUST be prepared to put in even just a little effort every single day into your internet businesses if you can. My personal experience has found that that builds a lot of momentum rather than doing it in larger batches one day a week.

6. You MUST be prepared to make sacrifices. The net is not where you get money for nothing. You have to have the foresight to understand that this is a longer term goal than a shorter one. As an example, in my first 3 months I made $1000 per month. A year later it had grown to $4000 to $5000 per month and a year later, NOW, it is well over $15,000 per month. If I had just focused on the initial $1000 figure I may well have given up but instead I had the patience and the foresight to see this as a long term plan – NOT A GET RICH QUICK PLAN.

7. You HAVE TO believe in yourself even when others don’t. Quite often your partners/spouses/family members will only see you spending money and doing a lot of research and expanding your education. They may not understand the big picture. They are probably expecting you to make money overnight or it’s a hopeless scenario. That’s not true. If you have faith in yourself then you’re halfway there. When your family members start doubting you then send them some blog posts on this forum where warriors have shared their inspirational stories.

8. DON’T GIVE UP! There is only ONE WAY that you can guarantee to fail online and that’s by giving up. Don’t do it. I actually started marketing in 2001 and gave up a couple of years later, a dismal failure. If I hadn’t started again in 2005/2006 I’d now be missing out on a massive online income….so don’t give up…..

9. Keep trying until you find what works for you. If you actually did a poll of every warrior in this forum you’d find there are probably 100s of methods that people are using to make money online. So you tried pay per click and that didn’t work, then look at blogging, article marketing, video marketing etc– find what works for you (you’ll know when that happens) and rinse and repeat.

10. NEVER stop learning. Probably the day when you think you’ve learnt everything there is to know online is the day that your business will start to decline. One thing that happens with the internet is that it never stops evolving. Me being a Gemini, that’s probably why I find it so invigorating. Methods that worked last year may not work so well now…

11. DON’T get overwhelmed. One of the main reasons why people give up online is because they get totally bamboozled and confused. You’ll know when that’s about to happen – your head starts spinning. When that happens take a break – however long you need to – to clear your head…even if it takes a day or two.

12. BE CHOOSY in who you follow. There are so many experienced internet marketers that every Warrior can learn from. A word of caution – trying to follow too many people at the one time will only confuse you and have you doing nothing. It’s just like too many chefs spoil the broth. Follow only one or two marketers until you’ve learnt as much as you can from them and only then look at learning from others.

13. Work SMARTER not harder. For those of us with families and in employment clearly time is limited. For this reason you really need to plan out your marketing activities and do what takes the smallest amount of time for the biggest results.

14. Make SMALL GOALS. Now if you started internet marketing today and said to yourself okay next month I want to make $10,000 you’re setting a very high goal post for yourself and setting yourself up for a fall. Instead make small goals such as – your first goal is to make $10 per day online….your next goal is to make $20 per day online, your next goal is to make $50 per day online…etc…Smaller goals are much more achievable than one massive one from the start.

15. Spend a few minutes every day at The Warrior Forum. The Warrior Forum contains the best marketers in the world, and the wealth of knowledge is incredible – and so is the generosity of heart. This is THE BEST LEARNING GROUND for anyone wanting to make money online.

16. BE GRATEFUL for what you have every single day. It’s important to recognise your blessings every day and give thanks for them so that you can get more blessings thereafter.

17. BE GENEROUS in mind, wallet and spirit. Don’t be stingy with your knowledge, your ability and your wallet. Share what you have so that you can be replenished with more to give away.

18. KEEP A DAILY MARKETING DIARY. I write in my diary every single day about results I’ve had, tasks to do, tasks I’ve done, sales I’ve made….so that I can always look back at a certain period to remember what I did to get a certain result.

19. PRINT OUT AN INCOME GOAL CHART and look at it every day.

20. BE CONSISTENT AND PERSISTENT. Don’t be lazy about performing the tasks that you need to perform. Once you get it right you’ll be able to outsource many of your tedious tasks.

I hope these 20 tips help you create the right environment to make your internet marketing dreams come true.

The goal of probably thousands of internet marketers is to become an internet marketing super affiliate. However, while you may hear stories of people earning hundreds of thousands of dollars annually these super affiliates are not sitting idly by day by day. This article will discuss how to become a super affiliate in just five hours a week – maximum profits with minimum effort.

Affiliate marketing is a revenue sharing relationship between owners of products and promoters of products. It is by far one of the cheapest ways for merchants to get traffic to their website and fast revenue.

Through this form of internet marketing some resellers are, in fact, making hundreds and thousands of dollars every single day. However, this lucrative goal is only ever reached by around 1-5 percent of marketers worldwide.

What Sets Super Affiliates Apart From Other Resellers

This group of 1-5 percent of resellers have found a way to convert their visitor traffic to consistent sales conversions daily. This select group of people have perfected a system that works for them and quickly and easily duplicated it to create ongoing passive forms of income.

They are experts in not just affiliate marketing in general. They have sufficient knowledge of search engine optimization, keyword optimization, how to get top ten google rankings, how to find quality link partners and what men and women everywhere are desperate to buy to solve their problems in their lives or to improve their quality of life in some way.

These people also think outside the square. With the competition being fierce in many niches they have learnt to stand out from the crowd and entice their web visitors to click on their links and to buy at the merchant pages.

How To Become A Super Affiliate

Let me make it clear that you won’t achieve this success overnight. It is only through consistent and persistent effort that this goal can ever be achieved. The character traits of these people include having patience, being persistent and consistent and having a real thirst for knowledge and having the will to never stop learning the craft of successful resellers.

They are also well versed in many internet marketing areas that I have already mentioned in this email. This knowledge is not difficult to attain provided you know where to look and who to listen to.

These people know how to find hot niche products that people are willing to spend money on and the affiliate programs and products that convert highly and pay very well.

These men and women are also efficient at setting up web pages that sell with enough quality content and sufficient affiliate links to ensure that commissions are earnt when a visitor clicks on their affiliate link through to the merchant’s site.

They are also experts at getting both free search engine traffic (high google rankings is the norm) and getting high click through on their pay per click advertising.

They also know that credibility builds trust and they build a reputation in the market place that builds trusts with people before they even come to their websites. They are also well-versed on the products and services that they promote and how people will benefit from them.

They have also learnt to protect themselves and their online earnings by promoting products from a range of merchants while at the same time broadening their horizons and their online income streams.

They also offer a range of products on their pages which entices people to click on most of the affiliate links on the page rather than just promoting one product at all times per page. Sometimes it’s a good idea to put merchants against one another so that you can test how well each product converts.

They have also made many mistakes and worked out what works for them (and duplicated it) and what hasn’t (and stopped it).

More than anything else, a super affiliate has a real thirst for knowledge and a wish to stay ahead of the game. It is critical to stay on top of things and learn from people who have already made the mistakes so that you can avoid them.

Most importantly, don’t ever give up. Things can change dramatically very quickly. If you give up you may end up giving up your efforts just at the point where you are about to become a real success.
