I have upgraded to Premium.and this is why!
So after 2 years as a starter WA member, I have finally decided to take the plunge and become a member of this vast resource of training, hosting and community.
Why did it take so long?
Well, when i first joined in 2017, I was in the midst of my all too familar pattern of finding a shiny object and then getting overwhelmed, discouraged and just generally self sabotaging.
The inner dialougue went something like this: 'Oh this looks good, I really want to do this affiliate thing...oh wait..they want me to spend some money...they're asking me for money...this must be a scam...the only people making money are the 2 creators...of course they want me to upgrade so they can rip me off...this is bullshit..no one really makes money like this...i havent met them...so it must be a scam....Iam outta here...you won't be getting any of my money suckers!!' - can you relate?
So after 2 years of bouncing around like this with various programs...Chris Farrell, Super Affiliate Network and many others I finally came back when, ironically that I saw a review of this site compared with the Chris Farrell site and this seemed to have excellent training as well as extras like the 1st class hosting and the built in affiliate program, not to mention the huge community and the very user friendly back office.
I realised then that if i didnt quite bouncing and commit to one program, that i would be doing this for ever and not get any results, you see I was measuring my 'success' purely by money earned and of course when you don't earn anything for a while then its natural to feel like you've been ripped off.
However, this time the penny finally dropped that building a business like this takes time and the first few years could be quite slow in terms of income as it's learning how to build the foundations, the learning curve will be steep but the earning curve more a gentle swell, perhaps.
It was then that I 'got' it, that this wasnt trying to rip me off it was trying to support me to get my business off the ground and that the journey of learning and slowly seeing results over time is the only real way it can work.
The one thing that i didnt really have before was belief that it could work and now it feels like my belief is growing and the more i take action and follow the training then the more results i'll get and the more my belief will grow, it's just the first stages which are the hardest as it really is acting in faith that it will work and iam not just being taken for a ride by some fly by night charlatans!
I look forward to slowly building this internet real estate and will be looking to you guys who have gone before me to keep me motivated and the belief strong.
Thanks
Spence

Welcome to Premium, Spence! You will soon realize upgrading was a wise investment. How much would you spend for a college education or continuing education? Thousands compared to WA and the training, resources and community here are second to NONE.
Have faith, jump in and start being successful :)

Great work Spence and the fact to did this for yourself to make sure all is in place is awesome.
You already know how great Wealthy Affiliate compares to others but now you will find the greatness that is Wealthy Affiliate along with all you have now unlocked.
It might even be mindblowing after all those years that you didn't have before.
I wish you much success not only as an affiliate marketer but also as one wanting to go forward in life in all you do.
Keep believing in yourself and always go forward.
Now you have created a huge opportunity for yourself to take the bull by the horns and go for it just this time stay in control and you know that shiny object is behind you and true success is waiting for you.

Thanks Andre.
One step at a time!
I will be successful...if there's many people on here that can do it then I can too!
Onwards and upwards 😁👌🔥
Great attitude Spence patience is a virtue as well and your two years as a starter shows this.
Love seeing those two words people use. "I WILL"
This was necessary for you to first overcome that shiny object syndrome first before taking the final step towards true success.
I am sure this will help you further in achieving many things going forward.
Just know it takes some time at the start but if you put in the effort and work at it time goes quicker than you may realize.
Keep going forward
Andre
