When I decided that I was going to learn how to make money on the internet, I had no clue where to begin. However, there have been many times in my life when I decided to accomplish something new and so this was not an entirely unusual situation. I had absolutely no experience building websites. I had no experience with social media, and I had absolutely no experience with creating audio and video productions. Moreover, I had no idea how I would siphon money from the internet.
So, why in the world did I tackle this monster? The answer to this question is that I believe that the internet is a platform from which anybody can stand and pitch their product to the world. I live in a small town. My customer base was limited to the people that live in my community. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve done extremely well running my business in a small town. I just wanted a bigger audience. I wanted to see if I could double my income.
In the past I’ve tried a lot of different business ideas. I always start with research. I try to learn as much as I can before I launch a new idea. However, when you are trying to learn how to make money on the internet, there seems to be an infinite amount of information on the subject when you do a Google search. I realized rather quickly that I had no skills. So, I began by learning HTML and CSS because these are the two major components of a web page. So, I bought a couple of books off Amazon and started studying.
I found both books to read like textbooks. They teach you how websites are built from scratch. It took me a while to get through these books but in hindsight, I’m glad I took the time. They really gave me the basics before I got started learning how to make money on the internet.
There are plenty of books out there that teach the technical stuff but there are not a lot of good books out there that teach you how to make money on the internet. I spent a lot of time online reading blogs and watching YouTube videos. I ended up with a lot of puzzle pieces, but I just felt like I didn’t have all the pieces.
A couple of years ago I bought a book authored by Ewen Chia.
This book is not like a textbook. It is an easy read and a real blueprint that you can follow to start learning how to make money on the internet. It teaches you the marketing aspect of running an online business. I already had a lot of the pieces to the puzzle, but this book really filled in all the gaps.
The Author, Ewen Chia, is a world-famous and highly respected internet marketer. He is a proven expert in Affiliate Marketing, Affiliate Management, List Building, Email Marketing, Product Creation, and Online Branding. He is also widely known as the World #1 Super Affiliate.
The book teaches you how to:
- Choose Your Market
- Find A Product
- Write an Offer
- Drive Traffic to Your Offer
- Build an Email List
- Build A Trusted Relationship with Your Email List
- Sell Backend Products to Your List
I’ve always said that to be successful in business you need a simple plan that you can duplicate over and over again. That’s exactly what this book teaches. It gives a simple blueprint for success that you can repeat over and over.
