The Secret of a Master Affiliate Marketing Millionaire: Motivation
After a recent conversation with one of my good friends and affiliate mentor, I was asking preliminary questions for an interview. I asked how do you get that driving force to create a successful affiliate marketing business?
He responded with the following question:
How do you motivate yourself?
I know I’ve reviewed some of this previously, but, I’m only repeating it because it is so important.
OK, let’s start at the beginning, again.
#1) Discover your own passion. First, you have to define what you enjoy doing. The reason you have to discover your own passion is to discover ” The Why” you’re doing this. It’s got to be something you have a burning passion for.
In Affiliate Marketing, when you do this, you’re at your very best. You can bury your competition and have fun at the same time. It’s a known fact, the most successful entrepreneurs love what they do.Start to find your own passion in your hobbies, interests or even the things you have special knowledge in.
Don’t feel bad if your really can’t decide what you’re really, super, passionate about. It’s happened to me and it’s happened to everyone at one time or another. You loose track of your most basic drive. Here’s a secret affiliate tip to finding your passion.
This exercise will take about 15 minutes to a half an hour. If done right, it may change your life or, aAt the very least, be a real eye opener.
How You Can Discover Your True Passion:
Get up early one morning, knowing you won’t be disturbed. Now, with a cup of coffee or tea, by yourself, try to imagine that today is a totally FREE day.
Think: “My to do list for today, is to do, whatever will make ME happy”.
Say that out loud: “My to do list for today, is to do, whatever will make ME happy”.
Think: If I could do anything I wanted to do today, anything, what would I do?
Make a list of all the possible things you want to do, never have been able to do, never thought you could do or what you would do with (3) wishes. Don’t think about it, just write them down, let the thoughts flow. Remember, you can’t make a mistake here.
Take 10 minutes, 15 minutes or as long as it takes. Let your imagination run wild. Think about this; If your take this seriously, you will be able to check everything off this list one day and say, “I did that.” List everything you can think of. Don’t be bashful. Remember, this list is just for YOU and this is supposed to be FUN!
Next, look over your list. Now the work really starts…. Just kidding!
You need to pick your top (10) favorites. If you don’t have ten, go back to step #1. Then, prioritize the top 10. Start with # 1 and work your way down to #10. Is that hard? OK, let me give you some motivation.
You have just been notified you have six months to live. You will feel exactly how you feel today, and then in six months from today, you will die.
What are you going to do first?
Now, we’re zeroing in on something most people have never discovered about themselves. What makes you tick????
You have just placed yourself in the top 2% of affiliate marketers. Having done this, I want to congratulate you! You now have a hidden power, an inner strength of immense proportion.
When you fully understand this, there is nothing you can’t accomplish. If and when you harness this power, you will become a dynamo.
I know, what you’re saying: I have a wife, kids, a mortgage, car payments, a job, I can’t just drop everything. You’re right.
You’ve just discovered something that will fuel the furnace to build your affiliate business around everything above. All the obstacles, all the disappointments, all the challenges that stand in the way will pale in comparison of the power you can pull from your passions. The reason is, you now have the most motivating force that can drive you, the desire to succeed for a reason… The Reason is your Passion.
If you doubt what true desire, a passion for what you love can do watch this amazing video.
Danny MacAskill knows this truth and practices it!!!
Hang in there, your passion and desire will make you a Star!
With the right techniques and systems in place, you can get back to that list above and start checking things off. Believe me you will. It will be a privilege to show you how.. stay tuned….
All the best,

Dig Deep, Learn All You Can, Then, Finally, Make All the Money You Want…
January 19th, 2010 by "Mr Bill" in affiliate marketing
Follow a proven money making system…
After about a year and a half of really digging deep, reviewing all of my (6) so called “Business” email accounts, I finally came to the conclusion; you can’t waste the rest of your life “thinking” you’re going to find the perfect money making system with the next ClickBank download.
That being said, I think I have earned a cheap PhD. Comparatively speaking, in about a year and a half, using ClickBank, I have been exposed to the teachings of the Masters, the Gurus, and the icons of this industry.
I now have a War Chest of Strategies and Techniques to retire in style with. This was my goal.
Although, I have been successful in the past, I also enjoyed my success along the way, not thinking about tomorrow. Even though I consider myself extremely blessed in my current situation, I still wanted to set myself up for the ultimate, “not to worry about the future”, retirement. Like everyone else, my plans have taken a crushing blow with the economy. This quest has turned into my own economic stimulus plan.
Yes, I’ve put my time in. I’ve studied hard. I’ve spent my hard earned money on products to educate myself on this new “Web Way” of marketing. I used to say, “I’m getting my Masters Degree, no, Doctorate Degree, in Internet Marketing”. Through this process, I have realized, you really don’t have to take such a dogmatic approach. Really, the only thing you really have to do is focus and follow through with a system.
A system, already proven and making money. A system that is laid out in a step by step formula, which is so easy to follow, you know, when you do this, you will get this.
Basics, basics… So, Simple…
But, I have to admit, I’m thick headed, I’m stubborn. Heck, I already have 30 yrs. plus sales and marketing experience. I know what I’m doing. There’s only one small problem, this ‘ole analog guy, is in a digital world. So, I complicated it for myself. Don’t do this. The tools on the internet make it so easy. Video, pdf files, webinars, tele-seminars, podcasts, go to meetings, etc. Well, whatever you want to know about, it’s out there. Learn who your best friend is… GOOGLE.
Now, get on the right track. With all this info online, really, the only thing you have to do is what you and I am interested in…make money, Right?
There is only one way you can succeed in business… be honest, be sincere, and you have to follow a proven system.
Remember, you have to identify, and follow success. Follow products, markets and buying customers. If you step in front of the market, with the right system, you will make money. If you follow the right system, you can place yourself right into the market and make a nice profit.
The Internet is big enough for all of us, yes, even you, if you’re observant, you can capitalize on existing markets and profit.
If you want to connect with a Pay Day, stay tuned.
Follow me through the steps for success; I’ll expose the system for you to: “Finally, Make Money on the Internet”. I am about to share the process that I’ve learned and this info is free. Only, if you become an email friend below. You will have special access to: Pdf files, video training links, all sent to you via email. I need your email address to include you.
The emails are free, cancel at any time. Your email is secure. I don’t share my lists with anyone, ever. I sincerely respect your privacy and trust.
Start by signing in. All the Best,
Mr. Bill
Do you need any more convincing?

Affiliate Marketing is the fastest, most successful,
way to start a home business today!
Here’s something for you to consider, even if you’re just thinking about starting a home based business.
Affiliate marketing is just about the largest “In Home Business” being used today. It’s huge and growing, or should I say EXPLODING!
Research shows that affiliate marketing is a $ 6. 5 billion business worldwide and it is rapidly expanding. There are thousands of people who are making affiliate marketing their full-time jobs and earning sometimes thousands of dollars a month.
Why is affiliate marketing so popular?
Simply because the Affiliate business model, has some distinct differences and advantages from other business models:
#1 The biggest advantage would be the affiliate marketer has no inventory. What this means is you do not worry about inventory, storage, supply or unsold merchandise.
#2 Second advantage, if you don’t need inventory, you don’t need large start-up capital to buy inventory before you can start your business.
#3 Third, all of the customer service burden is on the company your an affiliate for. That’s all customer service, tracking shipments, orders, payments, returns, etc. All customer service is handled by your merchant.
Your sole function is to promote the product and make sales. All the rest of the business services are provided by the merchant.
#4 Fourth, with affiliate marketing, there’s no need for a physical store address, no stock, no rent, no inventory. And there is no need for employees, payroll and the like. In most cases, all you need is a computer and Internet connection and nothing more.
#5 Fifth, with affiliate marketing, and this is one of my favorites, you don’t have to commute to and from work. How far is it to your computer? I know that souds to good to be true. Let me tell you I can relate, driving over 1 1/2 hours each way to work living in So. CA. for over 7 yrs. It’s no fun.
Realalistically, affiliate marketing is a great way to do business.
Is Affiliate Maketing for you?
As simple as affiliate marketing sounds, to be successful, you will need to be serious about your attitude. This is a business, not a hobby. You will have to approach it with this attitude to make money. You will have to follow a system of techniques, strategies, that have been proven to produce profits and you will repeat that success. Don’t think that you can go off on your own and make this work. You might get lucky, but chances are you’ll fall into the same traps, pit falls, obstacles, disappointments, that are the ones you wanted to avoid. My belief, from experience, has shown that those who follow a proven system will have the same results. Those that follow the path of experimentation will also have results, but what result is the question?
Is this for you? That’s a question nobody else can answer but you.
Not to burst your bubble, affiliate marketing is anything but simple. Being your own boss, having the discipline to manage your own business is not easy. You must be determined, self motivated and focused on what you want to accomplish. Believe me when I tell you it’s not easy. Please don’t think you can read a couple emails in the morning over coffee, place a couple ads and make $5,000 a month. I would be doing you a disservice to suggest that and anyone that tells you that is scamming you. That does happen, but not in the beginning.
The potential you can make from Affiliate Marketing is, well let’s just say, the Sky’s the Limit. How you get there is the secret.
Ready for the Secret?
You can have whatever you want from this business if you build it right from the beginning. What that means is the success of your business is determined by same basic priciples of building a strong business anywhere, online or offline. The essence of building any business is service to your clientel base,
Your Customers.
On the Internet, a client base or customer base is often refered to as “the list”. Not just any list, these are people that are following you, through emails, blogs, articles and have opted in to your world. Today’s sales and customers are based more on relationships than ever before. Let’s face it, you are just a click away from the next Best Widget on the Internet. Building relationships and building your lists are all subjects to be covered in my email courses above. Sign in for free PDF’s.

Stay Tuned,
