Making That First $100

I think it is safe to say that 99% (at least) of would-be Internet entrepreneurs give up long before they get to the point of making just $100 per month.
Why is it so difficult?
Let me begin by pointing out that it is MUCH easier to go from $100 per month to $1000 per month than getting to that first $100 per month milestone. That was the good news. The bad news is that the first $100 mark can be a real hair-pulling experience!
When you finish reading this post, Watch My “Getting Started” Videos Here.
There is simply so much to be learned in order to produce a steady income of just $100 per month. Just learning to build a site can be quite a hurdle! Then there are all the marketing techniques which must be learned and put into place. These can take months (most beginners want this to happen in days, so they are not willing to go the distance).
Ah, but once that income is around $100 per month or more, the winds will change and become far more favorable to the marketer. In order for this to happen, successful systems and/or methods must be in place which produces the income. When those systems and methods are working, it is then just a matter of expanding on them.
It is far easier to tweak a working system to make it better than it is to come up with the system in the first place.
How to find that initial system that works: There is no magic formula which fits everyone. It is simply a matter of trying again and again and learning from mistakes.
Unless one quits, the only possible outcome is success!
One of the best Willie Crawford publications ever is this 200+ page book written by 20 of Willie’s members. 20 different marketers detail how they began making their first $100 per day online…very interesting and VERY motivational.












Steve,
I am trying to move forward with one of my products on Paydotcom. I can’t download the guide because it “says” I am already on your list. I have read most of the content on your websites. You are a teacher at heart.
I am an professional organizer at heart. What is up with the disorganization of paydotcom? I chose pdc because I heard Mike on a webinar. He sounds like a internet businessman with integrity. I am beginning to think he is just wanting people’s money. Which I would be happy to give him some of mine, if I can find an organized manual to the details of pdc. I also read the forums to try and figure things out. I am not the only one wasting time trying to post products or promote products. I’m giving pdc one more day and then I am moving on to another site.
If you want to REALLY help people on PDC, give a visual flow chart of the steps to take to post and promote. This site is filled with opportunities for Mike to make more money off his customers. I guess he is smart for that. Why not have satisfied customers that pay him this money.
Very frustrated and disappointed,
