Feeling Like A Billion Bucks!

How am I feeling like a billion bucks when I’m slow.

I'm not referring in the “I drive 45 MPH in the left lane on the highway” slow or “I need to give exact change to the cashier so let me dig around in my pocketbook for two nickels and three pennies while everyone else waiting in line taps their foot” slow.

No, not quite. And just so we’re clear: I don’t own a pocketbook. I was just using that as a frame of reference, ok?

What I’m referring to when I say I’m slow is how I have really just gotten myself in so many programs out there on making money online and quick income, etc. yet all I have done is fall into the same scheme of "getting rich fast" and I pretty much was just lazy of getting the true facts about affiliate marketing and anything that had to do with this industry.

I always saw these guys with their snap shot of their incomes and how much they were making each month. I pretty much was making myself believe that I’m just, you know, slow. I lack explosiveness, pizzazz, “oomph,” whatever you want to call it, I just lacked it. Or could it be that I was never introduced to the proper training, support and tools before?

From the time that I started getting into affiliate marketing for example. I really can't pick a date or time when I actually started and let me explain why. That's because when I would get tired of Corporate America, I would say I should really just focus on creating an online business, but then all these thoughts would come to my head: "What can I sell, what can I do to create an online business, what "niche" I should focus on, what's going to give me that "overnight" success that I hear and read about from so many sources out there.

Let me tell you that just by me thinking these things, made me just put this whole online business to the side and I would always say: "I'll get around it one day". But to be honest with you, it was not just me putting it in the back burner for "now", but it was more the sense of being lost, where to start and most importantly how to start.

I knew that I needed a website, I knew I needed a niche, but what to do next? How much was all this going to cost me. My whole mindset was, I'm really struggling and living paycheck to paycheck, so investing a good amount was beyond my reach and definitely wasting money on products that were getting me nowhere and it just made me feel like a complete failure.

Furthermore, I never saw myself getting anywhere, I just saw myself wasting more money on domain names and products that never actually provided me with any income in return. Until....

Until one day, I said enough is enough, I was tired of all these programs that promised you how to get rich quick but never actually showing you how until you bought the product, then to find out that you were still left hanging as the product was a waste of money, I was tired working the 9 to 5 job, I was tired of getting stuck in traffic for hours, and the most important thing was, I was barely spending time with my wife and my kids.

To put it bluntly – It sucked!

While doing my research online for yet on another product, I came across Empower Network, everything from what the person was saying sounded amazing. But when looking inside at the product, I then realized that there was nothing free and they wanted to sell you in telling you that, all you had to pay in order to make money was $25.00/per month; however, once inside, you then realize that you have to buy in some more expensive programs and in order for you to get paid, you also had to pay for their third party banking system they use.

Their videos were outdated and there was nothing personalized, it made me feel that I was scammed and it looked more like those pyramids schemes I've made the mistake in the past in wasting my hard earned money on them. That's when I came back to my senses and said, I can't really fall again to one of these "get you rich fast" products.

During my searching of this product, I then found a post by Kyle (one of the owners at Wealthy Affiliate). You can find his post by clicking here. I immediately realized the benefits that Wealthy Affiliate provided. I compared both products and couldn't help to notice that I was writing more pro's on the Wealthy Affiliate versus the con's I've been writing on Empower Network. I couldn't be happier that I actually found that post online.

So it’s been within the past month or so that I've had an epiphany and decided to nip things in the bud. In a nutshell I need to get a little more active. And that's exactly what I did once I joined Wealthy Affiliate, it was a no brainer.

What’s Wealthy Affiliate you ask? It’s simply a place where you'll learn how to immediately get "immersed" in the awesome community they have. You'll discover the process of earning revenue online, you'll create and start working towards a list of new financial and non-financial goals. You'll gain instant access to over 590,000 niches in which you will choose your starting point NICHE for your business and start actually building your very OWN niche website while learning how to optimize it using WordPress. On top of that, it is a simple and free way of making your site search engine friendly, they will teach you how to create quality website content (that gets ranked) and understanding the keyword research process and quickly and easily create your own low competition keyword lists.

My #1 Recommended product, hands down is Wealthy Affiliate, if you want to start your free access, you can do so by clicking here!

Taking action and implementing what you learn on their training is a great way to improve your online business and you WILL start making income online.

I’d even argue that after joining Wealthy Affiliate it has made me successful and feeling like a billion bucks. From the supportive community to the training videos and everything Wealthy Affiliate has to offer absolutely free. And I'm sure it will make you feel the same after you join. Just give Wealthy Affiliate a try, it won't disappoint and you have nothing to loose. As for me, It's everything I've been trying to look for in Affiliate Marketing.

Here's a complaint from Empower Network (of many) Found Online…

Hi Eddie - I'm new around here and just getting used to the whole affiliate thing. Thank you so much for this post as it is almost a blueprint of my journey (substitute names of expensive, useless products where appropriate). I don't regret any of it though because one way or another it led me to WA! I'm so looking forward to catching up on the rest of your blogs and sharing this journey with you. Best regards Gayle

I was also a member of EN, wrote blog but could get any where, nor did earn anything. I am glad I found WA and happy to be a part of this community.

Hi Selvan, I'm glad you are now here at WA. You will definitely learn a whole lot here at Wealthy Affiliate. There's no where in the world that you will get the training, support, tools and services offered here at WA.

The people at Empower Network need to know that EN's blogs platform don’t rank, they don’t get mass “traffic”, and all they do is just self promote themselves.

If you wanted to promote something within your own niche, then you would be out of luck because you have “becoming rich” branding riddled throughout your site. Also, you hear many touting “Alexa” rank as some sort of metric that determines search engine viability. This has nothing to do with rank nor is it a good gauge for website traffic. If anyone had a clue about Alexa, they would realize that this is unrelated.

If you want a WordPress website and want to get your own niche up and running for free, I will always suggest and recommend they check out the website building platform at WA and check this personal invite to your success video that won't take much of your time to watch, but it will definitely change your life: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/a-personal-invite-to-your-success/a_aid/05456721. You get two websites free, much more cost efficient than the $120 per month they charge you at Empower Network!

Very well said, hope you can finally get some direction here.

Hi Eddie, you just described what I went through. Lucky for me though I didn't get to the point of becoming a member of Empower Network as it seemed too good to be true, and as they say "if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is."
Thanks for the blog, it makes me feel that I'm not the only one in this situation as has made me more determined to pull my finger out and get started!
Cheers
Lydia
