			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p><strong>Why is this my final make money online blog post for now?</strong></p>

	<p>Well&#8230;</p>

	<p>I have really enjoyed writing on this blog over the years. More than that, I have enjoyed all the friends and relationships I have built up over that time as a result of this blog.</p>

	<p>However, it&#8217;s time for me to take a break from this blog. I considered many options that would keep this blog running smoothly without my interaction, but after a lot of thought and prayer I decided it was time for the blog to go on hiatus. If I decide to start it back up again, it will be a <span class="caps">VERY</span> different blog and by different I mean unique. But before I get to that I want to let you know some of the reasoning that went behind this decision&#8230;</p>

	<p><strong>Focus</strong></p>

	<p>My business success really turned around when my friend Austin Davis (of <a href="http://www.myhonestmechanic.com/">My Honest Mechanic</a>) told me &#8220;You have to focus!&#8221; Austin is an extremely successful affiliate marketer who focuses on one niche and dominates it. He told me the secret to his success is focusing on that one niche and being the best in that niche.</p>

	<p>Lately, I have been mostly focused on building our <a href="http://mantywebdesigns.com/">web design and web marketing business</a>. We have had a lot of success due in large part to our focus on Mantyweb Designs and nothing else. However, with most of my focus on the web design business I just can&#8217;t put in enough effort to make this blog what I ultimately want it to be.</p>

	<p>I strongly believe that focusing 100% of my efforts on Mantyweb Designs will pay off in a big way. While I did consider having someone else take over the day to day tasks of running this blog, it would still require some of my attention, which would have taken focus off my new business.</p>

	<p><strong>The Two Tribes</strong></p>

	<p>If you haven&#8217;t read Brian Clark&#8217;s post about the <a href="http://www.copyblogger.com/two-tribes/">two tribes you should go do that now by clicking here</a> and then come back to finish this post. The two tribes post on CopyBlogger is one of the best blog posts (if not the best blog post) that I read last year.</p>

	<p>In the post, Brian talks about the two tribes in Internet marketing. I have struggled trying to placate members of the &#8220;cool kids&#8221; tribe, while knowing that the only way to make real money online was to do more of what the &#8220;internet marketing&#8221; tribe says to do. The truth of the matter is that I am not comfortable with <span class="caps">EITHER</span> tribe. I have tried finding a balance between the two, and it&#8217;s not easy. Some of my friends fall into one tribe or the other.  There are some Internet marketers like <a href="http://www.copyblogger.com/">Brian Clark</a> and <a href="http://www.michelfortin.com/">Michel Fortin</a> who have managed to walk the tight rope that is the middle tribe (something Brian is now calling the &#8220;Third Tribe&#8221;), but it&#8217;s a very tricky path. You have to be careful not to swing too far in either direction.  To quote Brian:</p>

	<p><blockquote>I wonder, though, if there&#8217;s any possible way a tribe could come together that was about building real businesses online without being cheesy, sleazy, or tacky? Could a tribe form around ethical business practices, effective persuasive communication that actually sells something, respectful relationships with customers, and a commitment to keeping the White Hat on at all times?</blockquote></p>

	<p>That&#8217;s what I have been trying to do and if I ever take this blog off of a hiatus, being part of the third tribe will be one of it&#8217;s primary goals. (Note, a few days after I wrote my initial draft of this message, I got a message about joining the &#8220;Third Tribe&#8221; membership site and have done so, although I have not had the time to see whether it is worthwhile or not).</p>

	<p><strong>Providing Value</strong></p>

	<p>I can&#8217;t provide you enough value right now, because I am focusing every spare minute on providing our clients value above and beyond their expectations. Which is one of the reasons I have to focus on our new business.</p>

	<p><strong>Where can you find me now?</strong></p>

	<p>Our blog:</p>

	<p><a href="http://mantywebdesigns.com/blog/">http://mantywebdesigns.com/blog/</a></p>

	<p>My wife Jill and I write about many of the same topics that would come up on this blog on our new blog. The focus is more on small business owners, but in my opinion if you are trying to make money online, you need to consider yourself a small business owner. In other words, our new blog is perfect for you. <a href="http://mantywebdesigns.com/blog/">Click here to check it out.</a></p>

	<p><strong>My Newsletter</strong></p>

	<p>I will continue to give occasional tips on my newsletter and let you know when any good, ethical products come along. I won&#8217;t be promoting anything that I believe will be a waste of your money (in other words, I won&#8217;t be promoting a lot of stuff).</p>


	<p><strong>What would I do if I reopened the blog?</strong></p>

	<p>6-12 months down the road I may revisit the situation. If I do ever open this blog up again it will be for the right reasons. If I do re-open the blog it&#8217;s focus will be on making money online without compromising your values. It will also likely have an interesting twist and it is likely that I won&#8217;t be the main writer for the blog. The main thing is that I won&#8217;t re-open this blog unless I believe that I can bring a unique perspective to the make money online world. I do have a plan that I feel would do that, but it&#8217;s not the right time for me to be doing anything else other than growing my <a href="http://mantywebdesigns.com/">internet marketing and web design company</a>.</p>

	<p>Blessings to all of you,<br />
George Manty</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>I want to introduce you to something I like to call &#8220;hybrid domain flipping&#8221; as an easy and effective way to make money online. Basically it combines domain flipping and <a href="http://blogflipu.com">site flipping</a> into one easy money making method. This isn&#8217;t exactly a new or unknown method but there are plenty of people who don&#8217;t know about it and it does work, so I figured I would share it with you.</p>

	<p>Here are the steps to take in order to make money from this method:<br />
<p>1) Buy a domain that already has existing PageRank (PR).</p></p>

	<p>There are plenty of places to buy domains for cheap that already have PR so this step is not nearly as difficult as it may sound at first. A good place to find them quickly and very low cost is the digitalpoint forums domain sales section. But you can also get them at sitepoint, sedo, the domain name aftermarket, and many other places.</p>

	<p>The important things are that it has valid PR and is either generic enough to be used with any type of content or is niche specific so you can just put that type of content on it. I also wouldn&#8217;t buy one that didn&#8217;t at least have a <span class="caps">PR3</span> unless it was a perfect domain in every other way. This is because you can get them for relatively cheap and the higher the PR the more value it will have in the eyes of potential buyers.</p>

	<p>2) Put a blog and some content up on the domain.</p>

	<p>You need to put content up on the domain in the form of a static website or a blog. I recommend a blog because it will be easier to update and will be easier to sell. You will also be more likely to get a higher amount of money for a blog.</p>

	<p>If the domain you bought is generic then do some research to figure out what niches are hot sellers right now and build the blog and content around that niche. All you have to do browse around flippa.com for a few minutes to figure that out. If the domain you bought is niche specific then you obviously will want to write content based on that particular niche.</p>

	<p>I recommend writing at least 10 high quality posts or pages of content. Put some time and thought into the writing because it will help a lot when you flip it. You&#8217;ll probably need to do some quick research online to figure out what topics on the niche to write about.</p>

	<p>3) Do some marketing.</p>

	<p>Since you bought an aged domain with existing PR it should already have some backlinks and maybe even some traffic coming to it. You don&#8217;t want to spend much time or any money marketing it because the point of this is to flip it and make money with the least amount of effort as possible. However, it will only help if you do some marketing. You could do a run of bookmarking it on several social sites and submit a few articles to directories with links pointing to it. Both of those are free and can be done pretty quickly.</p>

	<p>4) Flip for profit.<br />
Now it&#8217;s time to flip it to make money. Head over to flippa.com or another site selling marketplace and put it up for auction. I recommend keeping it for a couple months before you do this though. But make sure you continue building them during that time so you always have some ready to flip after the initial waiting period is up.</p>

	<p>Some people will call this site flipping and others will call it domain flipping, I don&#8217;t really consider it to be either one but more of a combination of the two. Whatever you want to call it just know that it&#8217;s a great way to make money without spending too much time or effort to do so.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>In 2009, my wife Jill and I launched a business that is, so far, surpassing our expectations. Here are three of the main factors that contributed to our success in 2009&#8230;<br />
<strong><br />
1.  Commitment</strong><br />
Early this year (May) I was laid off from my 9-5 job. I had two choices at that point; go look for a job or start a business to make enough money to support my family. After much prayer and discussion with my wife, we decided to start our own business. Prior to being laid off I had been creating websites and marketing them in my spare time, but I never <span class="caps">COMMITTED</span> to making my business a success. I always had my 9-5 job to fall back on for money, which kept me from ever totally committing to the business.</p>

	<p>All of the people I have known who have had a successful business online have committed to it. Many of them even quit their jobs before starting their business because they understood the importance of commitment. While I don&#8217;t recommend you leave your job, I do recommend that you commit yourself to making your business successful. Without commitment it will likely fail.  Set some hard deadlines and stick to them.<br />
<strong><br />
2.  Focus</strong><br />
I have talked about the importance of focus before (<a href="http://www.canimakebigmoneyonline.com/index.php/20081202-an-honest-weeks-pay-for-an-honest-days-work/">see this post</a>). Until I focused on making money with one business (our <a href="http://mantywebdesigns.com/">web marketing and design business</a>), success was elusive.</p>

	<p>Now that my wife and I are running a successful business I don&#8217;t want to lose focus on that business or it might stop growing. Focus is one of the biggest factors in our success this year and it will continue to be one of the biggest factors in our ongoing success.</p>

	<p><strong>3. Time Management</strong><br />
Changing the way I managed my time has made a huge difference in my productivity. Now that I only check my email after I have completed 2 hours worth of important work, my productivity has greatly increased. I learned this and other techniques from various sources, including a very good book on the topic. If you are looking for great time management tips without spending a ton of money, I highly recommend the book, &#8220;Getting Things Done&#8221;, by David Allen. You can buy a copy at most bookstores or check it out for free at your local library.</p>

	<p>One of the other things I did to improve my time management is to create a daily and weekly todo list. I manage the todo list with a very simple free online tool called <a href="http://voo2do.com">Voo2Do</a>. At the beginning of each week I create a new todo list with the highest priority items being done earliest in the week to make sure that they get done. In my case, that means that marketing tasks for our clients are done at the beginning of the week. You can also organize your days that way, with the highest priority items being done first and your less high priority items (like checking email) coming later in the day. I also leave some space towards the end of the week for those tasks that get bumped down the priority list by things that required immediate attention, like proposals for clients.  Making good use of your time makes a big difference in your business success.</p>

	<p>Now, there was a fourth factor that both Jill and I consider to be a bigger factor than any other factor&#8230; our belief in God. While everyone may not embrace this view, I do believe that prayer played an important role in our success.</p>

	<p>Those were the three things that I did to have a successful 2009, what were the things you did to improve your business?</p>

	<p>PS. This post was part of a my friend Daniel&#8217;s writing project (Daniel is one of those people I knew who quit his job before starting an online business). <a href="http://www.dailyblogtips.com/group-writing-project-2009-in-review/">You can read all about his project by clicking here.</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>This particular mental hazard can severely harm not only your chances for creating an online business, but your life as well.</p>

	<p>Summing it up is very simple.  Magic wands are things you just wave around and <strong><span class="caps">POOF</span></strong>, instant results.  They&#8217;re very entertaining&#8230;as fictional props in magic shows.  In your way of thinking, not so much.</p>

	<p>Generally speaking, the magic wand mentality can be defined with two erroneous points:</p>

	<p>1.)  There is some magical, but elusive, solution that will take you from nothing to prosperity in your online business.</p>

	<p>2.)  If you don&#8217;t know what that solution is, you can&#8217;t get anywhere.</p>

	<p>This way of thinking serves to cause two hindrances as far as making money online goes.  It makes you very susceptible to scams and people promising magic wands, and it keeps you from taking the real, but not so magical steps to make your business grow.  In fact, you may get so frustrated looking for magic wands, you burn out and give up on it.</p>

	<p>There is no magic wand to making money online.  There are things that work, things that work best <em>for you</em>, and things that don&#8217;t.  The trick is to find what works for you, perfect your technique with it, and then continue to work it until the cash starts to flow.  From there, you just keep working it to make more money.</p>

	<p>Resist the trap of believing that there is some magic way to suddenly have an online income.  It will keep you out of trouble and prevent you from burning out over misspent efforts trying to find magic wands.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>As an online marketer or business owner, you understand the importance of writing copy that sells and gets your point across. One of the biggest problems with sites that I tend to see is the lack of effective copy which could be losing you a lot of money in potential income.</p>

	<p>Today is a very straightforward post as these steps are really very simple in nature. In fact, this formula will help you tremendously in writing great copy while also helping it flow in a much more natural and sophisticated way.</p>

	<p><strong>I welcome you to the <span class="caps">AIDA</span> copywriting principle.</strong></p>

	<p><em>What does it stand for?</em></p>

	<p><strong>Step number one in writing effective copy is to capture or grab <u>A</u>ttention.</strong></p>

	<p>This is where most people go wrong and why they wonder no one is purchasing their product or buying their service&#8230;they can&#8217;t grab attention to save their life. One of the quickest ways to grab attention is to create an effective headline. If your headline does not grab attention, the person landing on your page won&#8217;t read the rest of what&#8217;s on that page.</p>

	<p>From there, keep building the attention with your sub-heads and your intro, which will then get us into the next step.</p>

	<p><strong>Step number two is generate <u>I</u>nterest.</strong></p>

	<p>Once your prospect&#8217;s attention has been grabbed and is getting further into reading your copy, you generate interest in the product or service at hand. You talk about the benefits of this, how you used it and got this result, just speak in pure benefits of what it can help them do and how it can help them do it.</p>

	<p>A lot of times people confuse generating interest with, <em>&#8220;Oh ok, talk about all of it&#8217;s awesome features.&#8221;</em> The problem is, your customers don&#8217;t buy features, well maybe if they&#8217;re some geek who&#8217;s obsessed with tech, but your customers buy benefits. They want to know how blank can get them blank result. You convey that through generating interest in the product or service.</p></p>

	<p><strong>Step number three is build <u>D</u>esire.</strong></p>

	<p>You originally grabbed their attention, built some interest and from that interest, there starts to form a wonderful connection: Desire. They start to see how it can help them, what it can help them do, and so on. The most successful copy does a great job of targeting key desires that people have and conveying that through their message.</p>

	<p>Your customers purchase based on emotion and very rarely out of logic. It sounds crazy but it&#8217;s just how things work. Building this desire stirs up their emotions and they start connecting your product or service with how it can benefit them in fulfilling that desire.</p>

	<p><strong>Last but definitely not least, get them to take <u>A</u>ction.</strong></p>

	<p>Every effective sales piece has a clear call to action. <em>&#8220;Order Now!&#8221;</em>, <em>&#8220;Get Started Today!&#8221;</em>, <em>&#8220;Take Advantage Of This Amazing Opportunity!&#8221;</em>, etc. If you&#8217;re not telling your potential customer what to do next, chances are they won&#8217;t do anything. A lot of times people are just afraid to ask for the sale. <strong>Don&#8217;t be.</strong> You&#8217;ve laid everything out on the line, they know what they&#8217;re getting, and they know the tremendous value of your product or service.</p>

	<p>The next most logical piece is for them to take action and purchase. With a clear and precise call to action, you will increase the chances of them doing so.</p>

	<p><strong><span class="caps">BONUS</span>:</strong> I remember learning a really cool tip from Internet Marketer Frank Kern of Mass Control fame (awesome course by the way) that he learned from famous copywriter John Carlton. It goes like this&#8230;</p>

	<p><strong>Here&#8217;s what I got&#8230;<br />
Here&#8217;s what it can do for you&#8230;<br />
Here&#8217;s what you need to do next&#8230;</strong></p>

	<p><em>Simple huh?</em> And that&#8217;s another important thing to add: <strong>Don&#8217;t overcomplicate the copywriting process.</strong> As long as you follow a simple structure and put great effort into it, you&#8217;ll sell significantly better than what you may have in this past or were possibly going to do before having this knowledge.</p>

	<p><em>How important do you think it is to write great copy and what do you think something like this could bring you in terms of increased conversion?</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p><p>So, if you read last week&#8217;s post, I talked about <a href="http://www.canimakebigmoneyonline.com/index.php/20091026-3-things-you-must-know-to-be-successful-online/" target="_blank">3 Things You Must Know To Be Successful Online</a>. If you missed it, head on over there because it&#8217;ll really get you ready for this week&#8217;s topic&#8230;<strong>Social Media baby!</strong></p><br />
<p>By now, chances are you have a good idea of what Social Media is. Heck, last year it was called Web 2.0 and like Gary Vaynerchuck, the premier go to guy for Social Media branding says, <em>&#8220;It&#8217;ll probably be called something different next year&#8221;</em>.</p><br />
<p>In a nutshell, Social Media is just a fancy word for social networks such as Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, Friendfeed, etc., where you can engage and interact with your audience in a more personal and &#8220;social&#8221; way. It&#8217;s been around for several years now and frankly, it&#8217;s not going anywhere. I mean it when I say this and I can guarantee you that any business that doesn&#8217;t get into the new age of how business is done and continues to stick with the old school methods, is going to be toast.</p><br />
<p><strong>Point blank, bottom line.</strong> There&#8217;s a lot of information out there on how to do Social Media right and then there&#8217;s people like me who love <a href="http://www.mikestenger.com/work-with-mike/" target="_blank">helping you profit from it</a>. I&#8217;m extremely passionate about Social Media and over the course of reading up on a lot of different information, here&#8217;s what&#8217;s stuck the most&#8230;</p><br />
<p><strong>If all you want to do is sell, you better change your mind&#8230;FAST!</strong> Social Media isn&#8217;t just about selling to and/or getting customers where they&#8217;re spending a lot of their time. It&#8217;s a lot more than that. It&#8217;s about getting into the conversation that&#8217;s happening and being there. Sometimes people need advice or help with this. Sometimes they need extra assurance before they purchase something. There&#8217;s a number of different possibilities and when you can engage and interact with them, they&#8217;ll look to you as a friend, an authority, someone they can trust over time.</p><br />
<p>If all you do is sell, you&#8217;ve already turned them off by just your first tweet or status update. Offer advice, be helpful, and sure, sell from time to time, but don&#8217;t stray from the fact that your customers want friends. And when you can be their friend and build that relationship with them, it&#8217;s hard telling how profitable it&#8217;ll become.</p><br />
<p><strong>Post relevant, entertaining, and valuable information.</strong> You don&#8217;t speak politics to an infant, do you? Then find your niche or niches that you love, know about, and/or do work in, and post about that. There&#8217;s so many times where I&#8217;ve followed someone because I enjoyed their tweets about personal development and they start talking about this dirty scumbag politician. I guarantee you 98% of the people that pay attention to them could give a care less.</p><br />
<p>Now, there&#8217;s times where you post about other things, hopefully positive (Did I mention more than enough negativity can bite you in the butt?). That&#8217;s understandable and you should post here and there about other things because it gives people a better sense of your personality, a big factor in why people pay attention to you to begin with. However, when you get way off topic and stray far from your niche, it makes people start to change their minds.</p><br />
<p>Always stay true to your roots and make sure that you provide some sort of value in everything you post.</p><br />
<p><strong>Transparency is the new disclosure.</strong> Most people can sniff out liars as well as a bloodhound can sniff out a criminal a mile away. Always be truthful and honest in your ventures and activities. There&#8217;s been so many people who could of got far in what they were doing but no, they decided to lie about things and worse of all, cover them up. <em>Guess what happened?</em> Things get exposed and when you get marked as a liar and someone who can&#8217;t be trusted, that sticks in people&#8217;s minds and is hard to get rid of.</p><br />
<p>By being transparent, you simply be who it is you are and just do you. You&#8217;re no one else. You&#8217;re not proclaiming yourself to be an expert, guru, master, or wizard. Let others decide who you are by your actions and what it is you bring to the table (jump back to valuable content). We&#8217;ve all heard the saying <em>&#8220;The truth shall set you free&#8221;</em> and it will. It&#8217;ll not only set you free but also help you build deeper relationships and make a lot more money in the long run.</p><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>I do admit the title of this post is a little on the &#8216;heavy side&#8217; but I&#8217;ve chosen it for a good reason. Today (4 November 2009) is the day I&#8217;m launching my first ever paid-for info product <a href="http://www.freelancesuperstar.com/?aff_id=13586">Freelance Superstar</a>.</p>

	<p>Freelance Superstar is a step by step guide for newbie freelance writers or those existing entrepreneurs who currently struggle in their business. It is a labor of love and seasoned with plenty of hardship as everything I had to learn in order to run my own successful business is contained within. Basically, <a href="http://www.freelancesuperstar.com/?aff_id=13586">the Freelance Superstar guide</a> will save you weeks of frustrations &#8211; guaranteed.</p>

	<p><strong>My early days:</strong></p>

	<p>When I first got started as a wannabe writer I had one thing going for me &#8211; passion to reach  success once and for all or face another 20+ years in a job I absolutely hated. This drive was pushing me to work long hours and sacrifice many weekends in order to succeed.</p>

	<p>In hindsight I have to say that every single tear I shed, every dollar I spent and every &#8216;not so lady-like word&#8217; I ushered was worth it.</p>

	<p>I got my first long term client while answering an online ad for a paid blogger job. By the time I saw it it had early been published 6 weeks and I figured &#8216;oh well, what have I got to lose by applying for it.&#8217; So I did. Interestingly enough I got the job!</p>

	<p>And guess who my first client was &#8211; yep, it is no other than my current partner in crime for the <a href="http://www.freelancesuperstar.com/?aff_id=13586">Freelance Superstar</a> product &#8211; infamous online &#8216;guru&#8217; Gobala Krishnan. Gobala employed me as a staff blogger on one of his sites which later lead to being the editor in charge on a couple of his blogs. Plus it also brought me several big name marketers as new clients.</p>

	<p>The rest as they say is history &#8211; I wish.</p>

	<p><strong>My seven months journey to freedom and success:</strong></p>

	<p>From that very first job I landed with Gobala it took seven months for me to earn a full time income. Those seven months were perhaps the toughest ever for me because I spend hours online in order to brand my name and my business with my blog and social media. It was extremely time consuming but also very rewarding because by the time I quit my offline job for good (January 2008) I never had to look back.</p>

	<p>In fact, from January 08 until March/April 09 I was fully booked at all times without having to seek one single client. You could call this the honeymoon period I guess. Life was perfect.<br />
The suddenly I realized&#8230;</p>

	<p>... that I had priced myself out of the market. When things started to slow down in those early months of 2009 I didn&#8217;t know yet that the <span class="caps">GFC</span> had already crowded my style. Only when I got an increased &#8216;lack of replies&#8217; to my quotes I figured something was seriously wrong. My business was still rolling nicely but the cracks were slowly starting to show due to having bigger gaps in my schedule.</p>

	<p><strong>It was time to take action once again:</strong></p>

	<p>The first thing I did was to take down my rates and customize them for every single client. This has worked a treat for me ever since. Only later did I make the connection between this sudden loss of bookings and the global recession.</p>

	<p>Luckily for me I did act on it immediately and only had to experience two slowish months.</p>

	<p>I also realized that unless I got into the info product market I could keep writing forever and never achieve true time freedom. So I wrote <a href="http://www.freelancesuperstar.com/?aff_id=13586">Freelance Superstar</a> to help newbies find their feet in the industry.</p>

	<p><strong>The supercharge formula:</strong></p>

	<p>A lot has happened since and while I normally never talk about my income I can proudly say that I had my first $700 day late last month. Naturally not all days are this crazy but my income has doubled from September to October this year already and things are looking good for the future.</p>

	<p>My personal supercharge formula can be accredited to the power of outsourcing. Outsourcing is the way to go in this industry and I will talk about this in detail if you head over to my new site Writing Pod. That site is dedicated to take a freelance writing business to the next level and only my list subscribers will find out how I did this because it isn&#8217;t for the faint-hearted or the person scrambling for their last dollar.<br />
<strong><br />
What it takes to reach success in business:</strong></p>

	<p>If you want to be widely successful in your own business you need to be dedicated to your success. Expect late nights, weekend work, last minute orders from clients and a whole heap of time consuming tasks.</p>

	<p>You also need to be passionate about what you do, otherwise it will never work out for you. The magic word is to take massive action day in and day out. Even after you reach acceptable success levels you have to keep on pushing. I&#8217;m happy to say though that it beats the alternatives for me every single day.</p>

	<p><span class="caps">I LOVE</span> my business, <span class="caps">I LOVE</span> my clients and best of all, I really <span class="caps">LOVE</span> my life. Do you have it within you to be the next <a href="http://www.freelancesuperstar.com/?aff_id=13586">Freelance Superstar</a>?</p>

	<p>In success<br />

	I don&#8217;t mean &#8220;change your mind&#8221;.  I mean your mind has to change.  Online business as a freelance entrepreneur is an example of thinking outside the box.  Your personal &#8220;box&#8221; may take the form of&#8230;

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Before you can start an online business, your mind has to change.</p>

	<p>I don&#8217;t mean &#8220;change your mind&#8221;.  I mean your mind has to change.  Online business as a freelance entrepreneur is an example of thinking outside the box.  Your personal &#8220;box&#8221; may take the form of&#8230;<br />
<ul></p>
	<p><li>&#8220;I can&#8217;t make money in any way except a job.&#8221;</li><br />
<li>&#8220;I&#8217;ve never tried anything like this before.&#8221;</li><br />
<li>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know what I&#8217;m doing.&#8221;</li><br />
<li>&#8220;This is a dumb idea.&#8221;</li><br />
</ul></p>

	<p>Maybe one or more of these apply to you, and these sorts of thoughts have to go.  But before I repeat the cliche&#8217; of &#8220;thinking outside the box&#8221;, how about a real-life example?</p>

	<p>For a few months now, I&#8217;d been sick of turning on my television set with nothing ever being on, especially given what I paid for cable.  Several hundred channels of programming, and it was all miserable.  So, I did something that most people wouldn&#8217;t even consider:  I canceled cable without replacing it.  I no longer receive television of any sort.</p>

	<p>Now, television tends to be a household staple even if it&#8217;s pointless. So this would be my own personal example of &#8220;thinking outside the box&#8221;.  I&#8217;m saving a boatload of money, and it&#8217;s not as though I&#8217;m without distraction or entertainment with cable gone.  In other words, net gain for me.</p>

	<p>It was a benefit to me to do something most people would not consider, or at least not consider seriously.  Online business is the same way.  It&#8217;s a world of opportunity waiting that most would not even give thought, but it could wind up benefiting you greatly.  This is what I mean when I say &#8220;First, your mind has to change&#8221;.  If you don&#8217;t seriously believe you can <a href="http://www.canimakebigmoneyonline.com/">make money online</a>, you&#8217;re not going to get anywhere attempting it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>We&#8217;re all looking for the best, most effective way to make more money, get more customers, or even gain a following on Twitter or Facebook. With the advent of all this technology, and the amazing opportunity we have online, there&#8217;s always some underlying aspects that allow us to truly get where we want to go.</p>

	<p>What I&#8217;ve down is outlined below some quick yet simple things that you can do to become more successful in your daily online efforts. Now, I&#8217;m not saying these are easy, in fact anything you do online or offline for that matter, is going to take some effort.</p>

	<p>So with knowing that, let&#8217;s get to the 3 things that you must know to be successful online&#8230;</p>

	<p><strong>#1: Just Be You</strong></p>

	<p>This is a very big mistake I see, especially in the online world. People pretend they&#8217;re someone who they&#8217;re not and expect to make all this money and be uberly successful. It doesn&#8217;t work that way&#8230;</p>

	<p>Sometimes it leads to people claiming &#8220;guru&#8221; or &#8220;expert&#8221; status, claiming that you know more and do better than you actually do, and in some unfortunate cases, posing as a famous internet marketer or business person and trying to cash in on their credibility.</p>

	<p>Look: You may not be the greatest, most knowledgeable, absolutely amazing person in the world and none of that matters. People want to see you and your personality. Keep learning and educating yourself while taking consistent action, what <span class="caps">REALLY</span> gets you results, and never stray from who you really are, deep down inside, past all the materialistic things.</p>

	<p>Others will appreciate that and it will allow them to create a stronger bond with you, and a much deeper relationship if you just be you.</p>

	<p><strong>#2: Give Great Value Or Go On Home</strong></p>

	<p>By value, I mean content. Chances are you may have a blog and if you don&#8217;t, get one as soon as possible. Blogs are really an extension of who we are and what we&#8217;re all about. We live in a society where people want information and it&#8217;s this information that is at the premier front of the gate. When people see how valuable something is, it grabs their attention. When they are attentive, they build an interest and a desire which leads to subscribers, followers, or even customers.</p>

	<p>The great part is, you don&#8217;t even have to setup an extravagant blog that&#8217;s totally customized. As long as the content is good, you&#8217;re already making some significant leaps in your day-to-day online business. As well, if you have other websites, focus on giving out free ebooks, reports, case studies, etc.</p>

	<p>Moving the freeline as some like to call it, has been proven highly effective for quite some time now. People respond well to it and it&#8217;s a great way to build some serious and massive value that shows others a little about who you are. Here&#8217;s the kicker&#8230;</p>

	<p>When people see how valuable your <span class="caps">FREE</span> content is, they think to themselves, &#8220;Wow! If his/her free <i></i> is this good, I can&#8217;t imagine how good their products or services are!&#8221;.</p>

	<p><em>And guess what happens when they find out that you&#8217;re selling something or providing a service?</em> They remember how much value you gave them beforehand so they&#8217;re influenced to snatch up your product or get your service.</p>

	<p><strong>#3: Content Is King But Relationships Are Queen</strong></p>

	<p>In this space, you always hear about how content is king. For starters, it is extremely important to your overall success, but it&#8217;s not all. Many times I see aspiring business owners throw up some sites, push out a bunch of content, and then wonder why no one is listening. It&#8217;s because A) They haven&#8217;t talked to enough people or B) They haven&#8217;t talked with enough people.</p>

	<p>Relationships are very important to your overall success. To be honest, I wouldn&#8217;t go so far to say that it&#8217;s one of the most important things to your success, aside from having and giving value. With the creation of social media and sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and Youtube, it&#8217;s easier than ever to build relationships with people.</p>

	<p>You should be building some sort of relationships through your sites or blogs, and by engaging and interacting with others using social media, you take relationship building to a whole other level.</p>

	<p>Stay tuned for the next post where I dive into where we left off and talk about using social media in the most effective way possible.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>As you know, Jill and I started a <a href="http://mantywebdesigns.com/">houston web marketing and design company</a> that helps local businesses <strong>make money online</strong>. Well, Jeff Walker just released a cool video about a <a href="http://www.productlaunchformula.com/plmdr.php?17763">new training course</a> he is going to launch that teaches local businesses how to make a ton of money with product launches. This sounds like a great business opportunity.</p>

	<p>I am personally very interested in the course because I think it would be a great service to offer to local businesses. It fits really well with our current business. If the price is reasonable then it will be hard for us not to invest in the training.</p>

	<p>Anyway, Jeff is giving away some good free information in his videos about the course, so I recommend <a href="http://www.productlaunchformula.com/plmdr.php?17763">you click here to check it out.</a></p>

	<p>Note: All the links in this post are affiliate links and I will make money if you buy something after clicking on them.</p>
