Online Biz Failing? 7 Reasons Why You Never See A Buck...

Hi readers and visitors,

Even if you think you're a failure, and don't have a hope in the world to make_money online, this message might just turn you around and put you in high spirits.

See if you can relate to any of these common reasons why people fail in their internet business....

1) Information Overload - You are trying to learn everything at once and you are paralyzed. You can't put any of the info together and it's frustrating you.

2) You don't know the Fundamentals of Business - You don't know what it takes to SELL something. If you can't sell off-line, then it will be hard to sell online.

3) You don't have the technical "Know-How" to put together a website - FTP, HTML, PDF, Domain Names, Affiliate Marketing. It's all Greek to you!?

4) You're trying to go at everything by yourself - You don't have any contacts in this business and you are afraid to ask and you don't know who to ask for help.

5) Low Commitment Level - You don't think seriously about your business. You procrastinate. You don't take the steps to turn your business around because you're not committed enough to succeed.

6) You're Afraid of Success - With success comes power, with power comes responsibility. Many of us don't like responsibility. We don't want things to become big because it will be too hard to keep under control.

7) You're Afraid to Lose Money - It costs money to run an internet business. It's easy to lose that money. But what you need to know is that money makes money. Leverage your money in wise investments or assets to bring you more in return.

So which one is your big one?

All of them? I hope not....lol

Believe it or not, you are not the only one who is having a hard time trying to earn a little extra cash on the internet.

The fact is, more than 9 out of 10 people never make a single penny, and the average time they try is 6 months!

===========================
What to do next?
===========================

But guess what? There is hope for you to start seeing success, right now!

Starting right now, I want you to put your finger on one of the seven reasons I wrote about above.

Then starting right now, THINK of how you can overcome it.

And then DO IT!

I'm not going to tell you how you can overcome all of them, because thinking of a solution yourself is good for you.

And I definitely can't stand there next to you with a match under your butt to get you to take action. You have be proactive and do it yourself.

Once you have thought of a solution and start to overcome your barriers, you will feel hope. And hope is what we need to get through each day with a smile on our face.

Eventually, our hope will lead us to success. More success than our wildest dreams - whatever they may be.

Remember, THINK and DO. The recipe for success.

The ball's in your court.

All the best,
Stuart Stirling

Online Profit Increasing Tips - Pump It Up Like Arnie!

Today, I want to talk about Doubling Efficiency and in turn, doubling your profits.

The beauty of running your own home business is that you're in control. You choose how you work and you see the rewards.

ie. a PAY RISE.....yay!

If sales are up, give yourself a pat on the back. If sales are down, you'd better pull your thumb out and get stuck back into it :)

---------------------------------------------------
So how does a business person increase their efficiency? Read this short story......
---------------------------------------------------

I just finished reading a very eye-opening email from a fellow internet marketer and friend who also lives in Japan.

He related his experience of a recent visit to the local gym to the way some marketers do business.

As he was out there pumping iron, there were 2 other young Schwarzenneger wanna-be's decked out in muscle shirts and belts (even they didn't need them for the weights they were "lifting").

My friend watched as they'd sit on the bench and talk about training and "getting HUGE" and finally head over to the machine to do a 30 second set of reps, obviously not straining, not trying to force another rep in.

Guess what happens...

Fast forward 6 months.....They're going to wonder WHY they haven't beefed up.

They put in the TIME at the gym. So what was wrong with that??

-------------------------------------------
They lacked one thing, INTENSITY.
-------------------------------------------

How many times do we get distracted or simply feel like it's too hard?

Or the best one of all, "I'll do it tomorrow..."?

Persistence, focus, INTENSITY does pay off.

Let's say one of those 2 "posers" at the gym actually started to get serious about bulking up.

What if he added just ONE extra rep to each of his sets?

What if he added an extra 10 pounds to the bar?

What if he went to the gym FOUR times a week
instead of twice a week?

Do you think he would start making his friend look
like a bean pole?

The answer is a certain YES!

I'm sure you can apply this to YOUR business, where you're at now and what you need to do to start seeing the results you want.

If you only doubled the amount of time doing actual money-making (ie. business building) activities, you'd double your profits, right?

So, what's stopping you?

My friend who relayed this story lives by his moto "Go heavy or Go home" in not only his work-out habits but in his business, and it shows.

I hope this has been a kind of "kick up the rear" to get you moving in the right direction toward your goals.

Pick a path, stick to it, pump that iron and don't stop until you reap the rewards!

Have a fantastic weekend and be in touch next week.

(NEW Ebook) Who will be the "Next Internet Disaster"?

Check out my new "hot off the digital press" ebook titled "Next Internet Disaster".

From the screwy title, you may feel like this ebook will be telling you how to fail on the Internet but, it's actually the opposite, a powerful guide for online business success.

It's a well known fact that the majority of people who try and start an online business fail, cut their losses and pack up shop in the first 6 months.


As much as 96% of online business entrepreneurs end in disaster, walking away with less money and less confidence as a result.


SHOCKING isn't it?

Seeing statistics like this, I went about to help newcombers to internet marketing and reduce that number by showing people how to turn around their failing business so as to NOT be the next Internet disaster.

Next Internet Disaster is filled with 36 solid pages comprising 8 chapters of pure Internet success inspiring and motivating lessons in his Next Internet Disaster
ebook.

Here are a few topics I touch on inside the ebook.

- Why you are not making any money on the Internet right now

- The number one secret that separates all winners from the losers

- What you need to do and think to start making money now

- Where the 96% of people go wrong when starting an Internet business

- How to recognize a great opportunity and seize it

- How not to screw up that good opportunity when you're in the midst of it

- Also included are real-life from DISASTER to MASTER success stories

These are a few of the secrets revealed that will help all webmaster really become the webmaster of their dreams.

One thing that this ebook is missing is...

It does NOT give you any fake promises of instant riches like so many other products do. But is that such a bad thing?

There are no screen shots of huge payouts or checks that will make you believe that obtaining that sort of success is easy or will happen overnight.

My Next Internet Disaster ebook is at ground level....meaning there is no hyped up make money fast schemes, but just pure ground level success building and achieving content.

Everyone who's serious about starting and staying in this IM business for the long run, needs to own a copy of my new ebook.

Anyone looking for get rich quick scheme that will leave them high and dry had better stay away..unless they want to avoid becoming the next internet disaster and actually see some success and profit online...for a long time to come.

So there you have it. You've been warned! You'll never be the next Internet millionaire unless you know how to avoid disaster!

Build your list with this proven method

How many times have we heard it, and I've said......"the money is in the list"? But I'll never stop conveying it because having access to a targeted list of prospects is money in the bank.

It surprises me at how many people are trying to make money online without building a list. I heard a story of a guy that went to an internet marketing seminar and everyine was asked to stand. The speaker asked everyone who didn't have a list to sit down. Half of the group sat down! And they were serious marketers who had paid to go to a seminar!

List building can be used in just about any online business model. For example, if you're and avid affiliate marketer, you don't want to let all the customers and interested prospects go straight to your merchant and in many cases, your competition. You need to be capturing them and building a list.

The way to build your list is with a trusted squeeze page. Here's another secret... Squeeze pages work in EVERY niche! Not just the make money online market. For a squeeze page, you basically need a website ie. domain name, hosting, autoresponder and some HTML files/images to upload as your website.

I have a handful of squeeze pagess all over the place. One of them in the "make money online" niche found at www.AcceleratemyEbiz.com you can see a screen shot of above. I just recently changed the design so I'm yet to report on how well it converts, but I have a feeling it will do much better than most others of mine.

Why is a squeeze page so effective?

It's simple. No...that's the reason. Squeeze pages work so well because they are simple. Think about it, on a squeeze page, there is only one choice for your visitor to make....opt-in for more information/free download or close the page.

One of my favorite famous quotes is "The confused mind always says no." And that rings true in internet business. I know that we want to show our prospects everything we have to offer but if you have too many banners and links, they will most likely end up clicking on nothing and forgetting your web page in a second.

Want to build a list and grow your business for years to come? All you need is a squeeze page. The simple things in life, and the internet, are often the best.

Go and check out my new squeeze page at www.AcceleratemyEbiz.com to get some ideas on creating a high-response squeeze page.

Thanks for reading,
Stuart Stirling
