… then Rob a Bank!
I remember back in the day, when it was a little hectic around the house … trying to keep food on the table, a roof over my family’s head, and the repo man from snatching my car. It seemed that my paycheck was getting smaller and smaller in those days … seemed like I couldn’t keep up any more. I needed to make extra money. So, I was on the Internet lookin’ around to see if there was something I could do from home … you know, maybe make some money on the Internet. I’d seen so many “Make Money from Home on the Internet” infomercials on TV, I figured that there must be something to it, ’cause all those TV commercials cost lots of money to make and yet they’re on all the time. Must be making money for them … otherwise, they couldn’t keep doing those commercials, right?
So, here I am lookin’ around on the Internet, going from one website to another (Jeez, there’s gotta be several hundred thousand of ‘em.), all of them saying the same things: “Make easy online money,” “Make up to $2,500.00 in 24 hrs!” or … how about this one — “Make thousands of dollars a day sitting at your kitchen table … in your underwear!”
Hey, maybe I’m walking around with the words, “I’m dumber than a box of rocks…would you screw me blue?” tattooed on my forehead, because some of the advertising whiz kids must think of me in that way since their claims are so ridiculous that I gotta believe that they think I’ve mutated into some pablum-burpin’ moron to even give that kind of advertising one iota of my attention … much less to actually get sucked into the load of crap these knuckleheads are hawkin’! It’s utter nonsense!
Look, I know for a fact that you definitely can make money on the Internet … a lot of money, if you do it properly. However, there is no such thing as making bundles of cash within 24 hours … or a couple of days, for that matter. Now, I know you’re gonna say, “But I’ve seen the screen shots of daily deposits into these guys’ PayPal accounts, and they’re makin’ truckloads of dough!”
My answer to you is: “You’re right, they are making that kind of money on a daily basis … it’s true. However, here’s the rub.
Do you think these guys woke up early one morning, jammed their toes into the bedpost while rushing to the bathroom to evacuate last nights macaroni and cheese dinner … then suddenly had a miraculous vision born out of the excruciating pain issuing from their now broken foot… showing them how to turn on the computer, click the magic mouse, and cause an elf to appear, dumping mounds of greenbacks on the kitchen floor??? Of course not! That’s not how it’s done!! We all know that … don’t we? We’re not the droolin’ nitwits they think we are…are we?
So, if that’s all a bunch of crap, then how do they really make the money that’s in those screen shots? Well, that, my friend, is the one secret that all marketers fail to tell us. You see, if those guys were to be truthful and tell us what it really takes to get to the top and be able to make thousands of dollars on a daily basis, all on total autopilot — without doin’ any work — they wouldn’t be selling any of their stuff and making that kind of money any more.
Here’s the secret they don’t want us to know, and why they won’t tell us about it ….
Simply put, you’ve got to do a helluva lot of work!! You’ve got to research the masses of people to find out what it is that’s causing them the most pain. Then you’ve got to plan your product around that research — that is, design a “pain-killer.”
Once you figure out what product is gonna work best, you’ve got to develop the product, select a domain name, find a good hosting service, build a website, design a squeeze page, set up an autoresponder, create a series of emails to put into your autoresponder, create a sales page for your site, generate ads, and then set up a testing system for your marketing strategies.
You see, these guys had to do all of these things in the right order, with the right product, aimed at the right audience in order to be able to make the money that they show us in the screen shots of their accounts!
So, if we land on their sales page and find out that we have to spend hundreds of hours and lots of our hard-earned money, and that we’re gonna be doin’ a ton of work, then most of us are gonna leave that sales page and never go back! Why? Because we’re simply gonna be overwhelmed, and we don’t want another full-time job; we’ve already got one! That’s why we’re looking for the easy way — we don’t want to work harder … we want to provide for our families without killin’ ourselves, right?
Think about what I just said. Do you want to spend money on a product that’s going to force you to work harder than you already do? A product that’s going to require you to learn about all the technical stuff that’s needed to design a website, or how to load web pages onto a server? Of course you don’t. Neither do I!
This is why those guys never tell you what it really takes to make money on the Internet … because no one would ever buy their products! That’s why all the ads that I’ve read over the years always say, “Make money from home in as little as 24 hours,” or, “Cash in the easy way,” or, “Make $15,000.00 to $20,000.00 per month,” or … my personal favorite … “Make huge amounts of cash sittin’ around the kitchen in your underwear!”
These guys spend lots of money hiring professional copywriters to create their sales pages that speak about how fast, easy, and simple it is to get the same results the gurus get. Man, I gotta tell you, these advertising pieces are almost hypnotic … they could turn even the stingiest penny pincher into a wallet-emptying zombie!! That’s why the good copywriters get paid the big bucks … they can sell ice to an eskimo!
Look, there’s definitely a way to make loads of money on line. But it does require some work. Actually, there are two very lucrative ways to do it.
1) Sell products through affiliate marketing … which means you’re selling someone else’s products and in some cases getting paid half of the total product price!
2) The best way to make more money is to sell your own products.
We’re gonna focus on selling your own products, and the best way to do it is with Private Label Rights products. PLR is an information product that has already been created and the author is allowing you to put your own name on it and sell it as your own … for a fee, that is. Not to worry, the fees are really small, like … only a few bucks.
Listen, remember I said that it takes work, know-how and money to get into making money online? Well, there are also quite a few shortcuts. These shortcuts will have most of everything done for you. There are a few systems out there that’ll have you up and running in as little as 7 days! Will you be making $15,000.00? Of course not! But you will make a few bucks in the beginning, which will in turn make more and more, and you will eventually build up to those large amounts within a reasonable amount of time … provided you keep on doing “the right stuff.”

]]>That’s the very thought process which dooms most affiliate marketers to consistently dismal results for their efforts. In other words, if you’re gonna treat your customers as if they’re nothing more than just another pocket you can jam your money grubbing hand into, then you’re guaranteed to be a marketing failure.
Here’s a prime example of the self-serving jackass mentality I’m talkin’ about ….
I personally know of at least 11 so-called internet marketers (Ken refers to them as ‘pseudo-marketers.’) who fall into this camp … some even associated with the top professional internet marketers in the business. Now let me be clear, the top professional marketers are what most people in the business would call ‘gurus.’ These guys are not the ones I’m talking about … they know how to do all the right things and make a fortune doin’ them!
I’m specifically referring to the pseudo-marketers … 11 that I’m familiar with through their incessant email promotions with which I’m constantly bombarded. And this is exactly what I’m talkin’ about.
These knuckleheads flood my inbox 2 to 3 times a day … every day … with a load of crap that … and here’s the rub … that they think I’m gonna get so excited about … that I’m gonna wet my pants!
These boobs are cramming sales pitches up my wazoo without even thinking about … what I want !
So, now I have to sort through all the garbage sales pitch laden emails from people who are supposed to know what they’re doin’! You wanna know the kicker? They’re tryin’ to sell us information on how to do internet marketing and make millions! Imagine that! Big Dopes!
If you’ve ever gotten an email from some internet marketer that starts out like this ….
Hello {first name_fix}-à (These guys are so lazy … they can’t even change the autoresponder code to at least include your actual first name.)
And this is how it continues:
My good friend so-and-so has cracked the code to amassing a fortune with ClickBank by using his secret formula that’s guaranteed to make you $100,000.00 a month! If you act now, he’s willing to let my email list get it cheaper than anyone else … (That’s mighty nice of him.) For a limited time you’ll be able to grab a copy hot off the press for only $47.00!!!
Now let me ask you, “Who the hell in their right mind is gonna sell us a truly actionable system that really brings in $100,000.00 per month for only $47.00?” “N-O-B-O-D-Y, that’s who!”
These guys must really think we’re a pack of droolin’ idiots!
Here they are, sending hundreds of sales pitch laden emails without ever offering us anything useful. To me, this demonstrates that they’re not willing to do a little give-and-take with us. Unfortunately, all they want to do is take … take our money, that is. This is why they don’t make any money … they just don’t care enough about us to at least address our wants or needs; they just want our money!
Okay. this is how the typical marketing moron goes about getting an affiliate campaign started:
Let’s take Chuck — not his real name — Chuck the schmuck goes out and finds a product … any product that has a high commission … and throws up a link, then sits back and HOPES that someone will click on it and buy the product. Real smart move, Chuck … just go for the highest commission and to hell with giving any thought to what we really want! But that’s exactly what most wannabe marketing misfits do — they just look for the money.
What follows is the process they should be pursuing if they want a remote chance at digging something out of my pockets besides lint!
Listen, when you’re deciding what product to add to your affiliate marketing business, you really shouldn’t be looking at products at all! Instead, you should be looking at people!
Products don’t buy products … people buy products! If you don’t know what the people are having problems with, are interested in, are talking about … then how can you sell something to them?
Once you’ve decided upon a niche, you need to be a part of that niche … even if it’s just briefly. Learn to talk the talk and walk the walk. That’s extremely simple. Just do a search for forums that relate to your niche.
Here’s an example of a forum search: Go to Google and type the following in the search bar: “Model planes forum”. (Remember to include the quotes.) You can use any area of interest you want. Just be sure to follow it with the word forum. Google will return a list of forums related to the area of interest that you want.
Next, go to them and sign up. Read the posts on that forum. See what problems people are complaining about … see what topics are getting a lot of posts … see who the experts are in that niche.
Do the same kind of search for newsletters.
Sign up for a newsletter or two. That will give you a good idea of the level of marketing in that niche and will also let you learn the ‘lingo’ of the niche. See what products they are talking about and trying to sell. This will also give you an idea of with whom to JV when you start your own affiliate program for your own product!
Ask questions on the forum. Get to know some of the people. Build relationships with them. After you’re an accepted member of the forum, ask them if they’d mind doing a survey for you in exchange for a nice gift. That’s when they actually tell you what they want and will buy!
These are YOUR customers and YOUR business!
This philosophy will definitely make you an above average affiliate marketer and increase your affiliate sales. Making a connection with people first will almost assuredly create satisfied customers, buyers singing your praise and repeat buyers … all because you went that extra mile.
The average affiliate marketer looks at products first, sees what product has the highest commission and then just throws up a page with a bunch of links and tries to direct traffic to it. Is it any wonder that they’re not making very much money? Don’t be that marketing moron … you’re better than that!
If you’re just throwing links out there, and maybe a picture now and then, all you’re trying to do is sell, sell, sell! Do you like it when someone tries to push you into buying something? Of course not!
Are you the type that wakes up in the morning and says, “Hey, I feel like going down to my local seedy used car lot and getting my pockets turned inside out by some high-pressure, hair greased back slickster of a salesman?”
You’re not that kind of person, are you? ‘Cause if you are, then you’ve got some issues to work out with a shrink … I’ll make an appointment for you!
Wouldn’t you rather go into a store where the salesman tells you all about a particular item you’re interested in? He gives you a chance to touch it and play with it … to look inside?
The good salesman gives you his opinion on the product and tells you novel ways to use it. He tells you stories about other customers that are using the same product — what they’ve discovered and what they like … and dislike. He tells you the good and the bad about the product and compares it to others.
He finds out what you’re planning to do with the product and gives you great tips on how to do just what you want to do. He builds your trust and builds some rapport with you. He’s just talking and educating you, not selling you!
That salesman is doing exactly what we need to be doing with our affiliate products. He’s telling, not selling. Learn to tell … not sell … and you’ll see a tremendous increase in your affiliate marketing income. Think of times when you, as a customer, were told … not sold … and try to incorporate that style into your affiliate marketing business. You and your affiliate check will be glad you did!
]]>So, with that in mind, the perfect solution would be to find a way to make money on the Internet without any websites of your own, without having to do any work, and without having any products! Sounds like some kinda ‘cockamamie pipe dream’ … doesn’t it?
Well, I’m here to tell you, it ain’t no pipe dream!
That’s exactly what I’ve been trying to get you to understand … you don’t need to have your own site. You don’t need to do any work. You don’t need any products. Remember, back in one of my previous posts I said that my way of makin’ money on the Internet is, “the lazy way?” Well, check this out ….
I came across a brand new membership site that has 5 websites that’ll make you money, without your doin’ any work, without you needing any products … and it’s done automatically!
And get this — you can have ‘em in 6 minutes from now — with just one click! Listen, there’s no way on earth to make this any more brain-dead easy!!

Look, the creators aren’t gonna let every Tom, Dick, and Harry get into this. They’re keeping a very strict limit on how many people are allowed in to protect the integrity of the site. So, you better believe that the door is only gonna be open for a very short time.
These guys are takin’ this so seriously that they’re gonna make sure to keep out anyone that even thinks about pullin’ any idiotic marketing stunts such as plastering them all over eBay at stupid low prices, or any other asinine, cut-your-own-throat tactics.
