Be carefull if you decied to start searching these "money making sites", they can sell you the dream if you want them too. I've come back to this post to say, I was almost sold the scam. I'm actually consider stoping my research because there so tempting.
This morning I was searching for an affiliate program on ClickBank and while searching I had an idea or maybe an understanding of how the systems work. The idea was on the most basic princaple of how the money making websites work. People start these site sites, advertise on google or someother high traffic site, and someone who has already been researching for a way to make money online buys. The key here is that they have already been researching. I know it sounds so basic and you'd think I'd have just know that but I didn't. I didn't under stand until now, that people are researching and making informed desisions.
For argument sake lets say the whole process from search to purchase takes thirty days. Someone goes on line for whatever reason and see your ad. that peaks there interest in making money online. now the process begins, i don't think they will buy if there new to the concept, the point is, now the process has started. Before your ad the consumer didn't even think about the posablity of making money online, your ad starts the process. I know it sounds like marketing 101 right. So now the consumer starts searching online, "money make this", "money make that", keyword after keyword and then after an uncertain amount of time the consume decides I'm ready to buy. Now here the part that will make money now, and the misscomunicated part. Because you where advertising at the time when the consume decides to become a reseller, you get the sale or the commision depending of what your promoting. Simple right, I didn't get it at first but now I see how it works.
That's how you make money so quickly, people have been advertising these systems for years and people talk about them a lot. I'm just starting and didn't grasp the concept until now. I just didn't understand how people could make money so quickly. Here are the basic facts.
- Someone else may have done the advertising when your product sells. This is a revolving affect and your ads will start the procerss that sells someone elses product.
- You can make money quickly if it's done right.
- Do you have to learn new skills, definetly
This is a sales process that I think will take 30-60 days to actually sell the product. But I don't think it would take that long to actually sell because someone else will have already started the process. For example today I just realized that I've been searching for "how to make money online" for about a month and I've just come to the conclusion that I'm almost ready to buy.
Then I realized that I'm not the only person in the world right now doing exacly the same thing. There are thousands if not more people searching online, right now for how to make money. Eventually some of them will come to the conclusion that now is the time and they will say yes I'm ready to buy some product. This is the end of the sales process and where google ads come in. If you have an ad up when one of these ready to buy people does there final search, you have a chance at selling them your prpduct.
So the idea is sound, it will work if you find the right affiliate program to advertise.
I have some question
- If most of the making money products on ClickBank all sound like scams, why does the idea sound like it will work?
- Are these people just doing it wrong?
- Can I do it better?
Based on my technical background I know I can create a nice flashy video and stick in a web page, I a broser based developer and have 10 years of experiance. So if I have the skills and the knowledge, so... Whats my issue? Why haven't I started?
i originally thought the whole thing was a scam but this morning my mind changed, there selling infomation but don't get me wrong i know there are still scammers out there.
This post was the first post that I didn't have to think much, I wrote it in under there minutes and it all came from the heart. Revising it took a little bit but the bulk was done very quickly.
Now.... I have just one very important question was I sold the scam???
For a moment I was.
