When anyone starts out in internet marketing it is a minefield of information and people offering different solutions. Everyone has dreams and that is why many of us take a step into internet marketing. Our current Jobs do not provide us with the lifestyle, or income we desire. So like many others I started to look for alternatives. I was a teacher and I found this di d not allow me to live out my dreams. The salary was OK and I could afford to live a comfortable life. However I lacked freedom. There were times i was tied up with marking, assessing work and attending parents evenings. I was literally tied into a 9 to 5 schedule plus extras hours, I was also tied into set holidays, Of course these were when everyone who had kids was going on holiday, This meant that due to supply and demand prices were high.

I took a step back and looked at my life. I was OK and my family were catered for. However I needed more freedom. The old saying Money can not buy you love is true. But it can buy you freedom.

Freedom to spend more time with family and friends,

Freedom to not worry about bills.

Freedom to do what you want, when you want,

Freedom to buy what you want when you want,

Freedom to travel when you want,

It was not material things that guided me into internet marketing but the chance to have freedom. To work when I wanted and not be tied into a system. I wanted to not just be able to simply provide for my family. I wanted to go that little extra. Allow my wife to give up work. Let the children know that they could go to university without having to run up debt, Treat the family to lovely holidays in places that I could only have visited if I had saved up for years.

Gaining freedom also allowed me to do other things. I started to enjoy simple things like cooking and gardening, as I had the time. I also started learning new languages and about different cultures. I broke free and I highly recommend the lifestyle that internet marketing offers. You too probably have dreams that you want to achieve and are looking for ways to achieve them,

The main problem that people have is how to achieve them. There are so many ways that you can earn a great income in internet marketing. However at first it seems terribly daunting. You research on the internet and you get so many options. People offering different systems, membership site training, affiliate marketing schemes, drop shipping, Forex, Binary options. There are so many different options. The big question is What do You want to do?. Who do you trust? and also where can you get help and advice. I know it is not easy. I tried different schemes listened to the hype some people were promoting and got stung a few times. In the end I found what I was looking for.

Being a teacher I still had the inner desire to help others. I knew that some so called gurus were ripping people off. So I set out my goals and decided I had to help others. There was a great saying by Albert Einstein

This quote made me think. How do people clarify success. Is it in terms of money?, or What they have done to help others?. I believe it is helping others. You can achieve financial rewards, and that is what I find hard about many advertisements for internet schemes. They show you images of their wealth, their homes, cars, holidays etc. This draws on the emotions of people who are struggling and want more. However half the time these get rich quick schemes do not work, are outdated, or even require you to get one upgrade after another, So after trying many different ways to make money on-line, I decided that I would break down all the jargon and explain simply what people can do and how they can achieve success,

Very good article, bit you didn't say how you actually achieved success.

I achieved success in the end after trying various so called solutions by setting up my own system. A combination of traffic exchanges which I used to advertise each other. This allowed me to get sign ups and refferals and earn commissions. On each site I also added my main income earners. Then I also used a few free safe-lists and mailers. This let me email potential prospects. Over time I set up some websites for my main business and sent people to these. The advantage I found of only using a few traffic exchanges was you could generate income that you could invest in other advertising methods. I recommend only using a few as you could sepnd too much time clicking links to get credits. Alternatively after gaining commissions you can always get some one on Fiver to do this for you

wow, didn't expect such a comprehensive answer. Thank you.

Just trying to help

Hi Steve. Like you most of us have tried several schemes seeking the freedom you speak of. With the education and help I have received here at WA, that freedom may now be within reach. I wish you all the luck and freedom you are looking for.

Thank you I wish you all the best as well

Steve, your images are not showing up for me (I believe is Quotes by Einstein?). Anyway I hear and understand what you mean about helping others, that is why I joined WA hoping to help others achieve their goals will in turn help me achieve mine.

Yes it is a great place to be with lots of like minded people

Such noble goals. There are many noble people in teaching. It is not wrong to want more freedom and opportunity in life. Isn't that what we want for the kids we teach?

Yes thats right we want them to be able to achieve the life they desire

Sounds like you were successful in achieve your goals and dreams, with getting more freedom to share with family and offer help to others that want to have the same dreams.
Congrats and thank you for sharing.
