So you want to make money on the internet? Well, just about everyone does and most of them who try fail. Have you ever thought how you could avoid that failure rate and be one of the few who actually makes real money? I have made a very good living in this business and there are certain things you can do that will greatly increase your chances of success.
With the profound popularity of online businesses springing up left and right,
there are certain keys that one must avoid when joining one of these businesses. If you are going to have any chance of success, you must take these points into serious consideration, or you may be doomed from the very beginning. My name is Damian Benko and I am a successful interpreneur (internet entrepreneur) working with the Passport To Wealth business. I have been involved in online businesses for almost 2 years and have had 3 other businesses offline as well. Many people ask me, because of my success, "
how I did it, or what my secret is". Well, there really is no secret. There are however, several things to avoid, too assure a greater chance of success with any given program. The program that I’m involved with is a software based business that provides a tremendous amount of products for the member as well as educational resources. The reason that I chose
Passport To Wealth is because, after my due diligence, I found it to be the most solid amongst many of the others out there. Now, I’m not saying that
Passport To Wealth is far better than any other program out there. I’m just saying that the concept, the compensation and the ownership appealed to me the best. That is the first key to success with any program that you choose. You must
believe in the company and represent it because of your strong feelings towards it. If you chose a company, just because it’s hot or the “latest fad”, you could very well be destined for failure before you even start. You need to feel
emotionally strong about why you’re choosing to be a part of that business. How can you expect anyone to join with you if your prospects can’t detect your enthusiasm for your business? That definitely comes through when talking with people. It is always best to have your heart into what you do. It just makes it easier. Now, that you have chosen a company to join, here comes the hardest part,
finding the right sponsor for YOU. There are many different personalities out there and you want to work with someone who you can get along with and feel comfortable with. There are many pitfalls or mistakes people make when choosing the right sponsor or mentor to help them succeed in their new business. When searching for that mentor you want to avoid these three specific areas. 1) The first and probably the most important mistake to avoid, is not calling your mentor personally. Many people will just join a business without even picking up the phone and speaking to whom they will be working with. Don’t make that mistake. This is your business and you want to be sure that your sponsor will be
accessible when you need them. If you call them and they don’t answer or return your call in a prompt fashion, usually within 24-48 hours, how will you be able to rely on them for help when you need it? The same standard goes for email communication as well. If you are getting auto responder messages only and don’t get a personal email communication after you sent an email to them wanting more info, then that is usually a sign of an incompetent sponsor. Remember that they are supposed to be there for you. This will be your business and you want to make sure the sponsor that you’ll be working with can help you when you need it most. I feel that having a connection or bond with that person can also help in your quest for success. It’s a lot more fun making money with those you get along with and like! 2) The second mistake to avoid when choosing your sponsor is
not asking enough questions. You want to ask as many questions as you can about the business and find out what specific help they will provide you with. This will lead you to ask what other resources do they have access to, such as additional mentors or leaders in the business to help you too. The more help and access to successful people the better. Other questions that can tell you a lot about your sponsor are questions about their background. What have they done in the past and does it seem that their personal history will benefit you in your new business? This can be very revealing. 3) The last key to avoid when choosing a sponsor is
rushing your decision. You don’t want to jump in with both feet the first time you see the business. Take some time to really think if this is what you want to do. Understand that you’ll need to spend a considerable amount of time and effort to build and be profitable in ANY business. There are no magic bullets or super secrets that can make you rich without putting in that time and effort. Many people make the
mistake of joining a business strictly on emotion. There are a ton of marketers out there that know this and pray upon your emotions to convince you that you need to join with them right away or you’ll lose money. This creates fear of loss, which is a VERY powerful emotion. They will also pray upon your greed emotion, which will make you feel that you can make all this money without doing a whole heck of a lot for it. Have you ever heard, “
only an hour a week in this business and you can make 100 grand a year?” Yeah right, give me a break! If that were the case, everyone would be rich. These “hypsters” as I like to call them, will try to convince you that they have all the answers and can make you a very substantial income with virtually no time spent at all on your business. Simply give them your money and there system will do the rest. Just sit back and make a fortune.
Sorry, that is absolutely false! This is a business and to be profitable in any business, it takes time and effort on the business owner’s part. You must be committed and continue to pursue your goals even when times get rough. This is why you must take every precaution when choosing a mentor to help you in your business. They will need to be there for you and answer your questions when they come up, because they will. Don’t feel bad for grilling your would be sponsor/mentor. Remember, this is not personal, it’s business. You have to look out for number one, that’s YOU! Always keep in mind that with the right help, and a “
burning desire” to succeed,
you ARE unstoppable. Don’t hold back and give it all you’ve got. You can and will be successful if that is your true desire. Put that goal out there and do whatever it takes to reach it. You will become a better person because of it! Go Get ‘em.
