| In my never ending quest of financial independence I have spent the last three years investigating income streams on the Internet. Think about it the internet is the perfect storefront with the world as your neighborhood. Whether you have a computer or not, access to the web can be found at libraries, friends and families houses, and mostly at the workplace. Everyone has searched for something on the Internet, to be at the end of that search is the biggest challenge facing all online businesses. There are countless opportunities for home based business on the web. With a firm belief of increased consumer spending on the web I focused my first six months on research of E-commerce and computer based businesses. A simple Google search on Home Based Business will give you over 325 million results. Most of these will lead you down the rabbit's hole into a magical world of exotic cars, huge new homes, fabulous vacations and piles and piles of money. And the only ticket you need is a name and email address for the form, then hold on tight for the ride to Success Street. I signed up a new email account with Google and put my name and email on every home based business opportunity I found. Wow did I get results enough in fact to keep me busy for about another six months. After sifting out the duplicates and the ones over my 2000.00 limit per attempt I paid for my first online business and went at it with a force. Paid for my first pay per click campaign and I was ready. Nothing happened first day, but there's my add right there on the first page searched, people clicked on it and … So I call my sponsor and leave a short message about my troubles. Second, third, fourth day no prospects and no call back from my easy to get a hold of before my money sponsor. After two months of working the program I had only made a couple of sales and had maybe three short conversations with a not very helpful sponsor. The 2 programs after that one at $1898 and $2200 went even worse. I never even made one sale in a popular Self Development Course resell company and had no help even after leaving multiple messages to my up line. In my three failed online businesses, I realized that one of my biggest faults was in lack of knowledge on Internet Marketing. I have owned four brick and mortar businesses, currently a successful restaurant employing over thirty people, but this marketing on the computer is a different beast. Then just at the moment of complete desperation, came a saving grace. A company with a free trial that allowed you access to behind the scenes. An offer I couldn't refuse so I signed up for FREE and I listened in on a webinar (a live training class on the web) with 395 other people and we discussed internet marketing strategies. I learned more about marketing on the web on one call, than I had with all three other online business attempts. So I continued to check out all the classes and I examined every square inch of that web site and what they were offering. Two months of specialized training in internet marketing and I was revitalized. I kept saying to myself if only knew that before, I may have succeeded in my otherwise failed attempts (or at least had a shot at breaking even). I'm talking about a company that allows a normal stream of communication with administrators, 5 days a week. Complete with a daily online chat room for help in areas of the setting up your accounts. Has over six specialized training webinars per week to help their members and records them in their training library (rapidly approaching 200 hours). Allows you access to speak to the owners directly via phone and email. A company that specializes in teaching you internet marketing and how to drive quality traffic to a highly converting web site to makes sales. I was a newbie turned guru, my phone rang almost continually during my first marketing campaign, and generated more income in a month than my current income level as owner of my restaurant. So I focused my new skills on my new team members helping them learn, and expand their earning potential. Then I applied the same marketing strategy to my existing brick and mortar business, the restaurant. My results were excellent, driving my web site to the number one spot on Google and other popular search engines for Oakland County restaurants. The tools and knowledge that were handed to me was well worth the price of admission. I have quality programs and products in my back office that are continually updated and that I personally use, recommend, and sell to others. EdcGold was a great experience over all and I will continue to use this program to provide an additional income stream for my family. My early failures could easily be attributed to my lack of knowledge in the art of internet marketing. But I was never afforded the opportunity to learn and expand my business with the other biz opps. This company has open doors for me and is in my opinion completely worth the value it gives for its small investment for the largest opportunity. I'm always interested in networking and my information can be found in my links. I hope something here has helped you in your quest for achieving financial independence. |
