Today’s question is….
The question today is from John Goss, who wonders how to get out of struggling and get it online - where does he start, with limited funds?
ANSWER
Thanks for the feedback John. and GREAT question and one I had back in October, 1999 when I caught the vision of what the internet could provide for my business.
I remember struggling to get my business online, too, so you are on the right track! Yes, it can be very painful.
And, as confusing as it was then, it is more confusing now because there are so many people selling stuff, promising to be the end all, be all, right?
While I did invest in my education, because you can’t really learn it for free, just like going to med school, you can go overboard if you aren’t careful.
I took it step by step, bought one thing, studied, learned and took action, before moving on to the next. That way I did not have huge credit card debt and nothing to show for it.
I once met a guy at a seminar who had spent $10,000 learning the online process and he didn’t even have a blog up yet! Yikes.
Here are the primary components to an online marketing system -
First, know what you are selling - product, opportunity, yourself, or all three, in a compelling order.
Then, you need -
A blog or website that is your hub of the universe
A way to capture leads and build your list of hungry prospects
Marketing funnels - this is where Social Media comes in - Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram and more
Content - this is what you market with, and interest people with, and bring them back to your site to engage in business.

At the risk of sounding like I am selling my program, let me just share what you get and how it can help you avoid the mistakes, the pitfalls and stay on the right course.
My backstage pass to learn everything there is about building a successful Network Marketing business, online and offline!
When you go "back stage", you'll have access to
The content will be delivered to you on an ongoing basis, designed to provide maximum "learning value" to you. The goal is to take you down a proven path, and not throw you into a freeway "cloverleaf" with way too many directions and options to choose from and no logical sense of how to put it together.
I'll be taking you through the exact process I used back in 1999 to launch a successful business that has sustained throughout all of the myriad of changes online!
No bright shiny object syndrome! Don’t keep buying “things” until you take the core steps that work. As far as keywords and your question there - Do you know that in nearly 15 years of marketing online, I have NEVER focused on SEO or Google rankings. If it happened, great, but I was a mom, with 2 children, 7 and 5 and a husband gone half the week, so I had no time or brain power to learn and absorb SEO.
I focused on Social Media marketing, before it was even called that, with discussion groups and forums! I got out there and marketed my stuff. Over time, SEO rankings came, but I was earning a significant income by then based on what I did for myself.
You’ll learn that in SocialMediaBaskstagePass.com
As a bonus, I have created an entire training section on Network Marketing Mastery, too, which includes -
These are important skill sets to have whether you are using the internet or offline methods. You must know how to effectively build your business beyond just sponsoring.
Whatever you decide in terms of getting the training you need, here is where you want to focus -
Start with -
A blog or website that is your hub of the universe
Then, add a way to capture leads and build your list of hungry prospects
Next, add Marketing funnels - this is where Social Media comes in - Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram and more.
Finally, you want to spend time each week creating content - this is what you market with, and interest people with, and bring them back to your site to engage in business.
Good luck!
