What An Anticipation Of My First Sale Was!

What's the a biggest motivational tool out there when you start an internet home based business? Well for me it was the anticipation of making my first sale.

When I started my internet home based business I quickly learned that nothing comes for free and you have to work at it to become successful. I thought that I could make lots of money in a short period of time; well I couldn't have been more wrong.

Yes, I got into the get rich quick scams to begin with, searching on the internet for ways to make money fast. First there was the "get paid for doing surveys" scheme. Then I thought that I could sell things on e-bay to make a quick buck. While there are lots of people doing this it’s not a way to get rich quick. Next was the pyramid scheme. As time went on the money kept going out and nothing was coming in.

I could have quit there but I was determined. I changed my way of thinking and started to search for legitimate ways to make money online. That's when I found WA. I learned everything there was to learn about it, applied the strategies and then reread it all to see if there was anything I missed. Doing those simple things can make all the difference.

While working my new business online I soon learned that one business wasn't going to be enough to sustain me working at home. So I have now decided to take on 2 more legit home based businesses so that I could obtain multiple streams of income. If I could just get each of them making $500.00/month that would be enough for me.

I dedicated myself to learning everything about them as well and all the while I kept repeating the things I had learned. Repetition and Duplication are the keys to making any home based business work.

Things started to happen after 6 months and a half had went by. My site was indexed from the search engines and I got a few signups to my affiliate programs. This in it self was enough to keep me plugging along, but still no sales. I was more determined than ever now, spending countless hours at my desk.

And then it happened....I got my first sale. I couldn't tell you how happy I was.

Things have been picking up more steadily each and every day. The more I apply the things I've learned the more successful I become. The more I repeat things I've learned the more successful I become and the more I track and duplicate things I've learned....well you get the point.

Does this sound familiar to you dearest friends? So to those who did not make their first sale yet, hang on there we do not know what tomorrow may bring do we?

Love ya!

You are most welcome my dearest.

Thanks for posting, it's great motivation to l plugging away.

I am honored to have you on my network. Thank you very much for the following and for finding time to stop by. All the best.

This is awesome. I too did the pyramid schemes, I did the surveys, and it just all becomes so overwhelming, you do so much work on something you don't really enjoy, and the pay off, really isn't that great. Everything I do, I try to do with passion, with love, and I better be inspired. That's the criteria I've put on myself for what my future holds, whatever I do, it better be something I love, I am passionate about, something that inspires me. I've prayed for quite some time on finding something, and I can't even tell you how I came across WA, but I can tell you I'm very glad I did. I have yet to make my first sale, but I try to apply everything I learned so far, I try to learn as much as possible, and I apply things along the way. I've found myself trying to go back to make sure I'm following the steps right. Step by step, day by day I'm getting there and I know the money will start to come in.
I'm preparing myself to start getting into the position of teaching/instructing what my passion is. I've thought about starting other sites, about things I have fun with and that I'm passionate about as well, but I really want to learn everything I can for this first. Baseball has always been my greatest passion, and right now, my website is my baby, and I can't wait to watch it grow and take it to the levels I know that I can take it. Your story keeps me motivated, thank you for that.

I am so glad to hear from you. Nice to hear your story you know. There are times that I regret taking some of those schemes, but as they said one bitten twice shy.

Experiencing failure is the best teacher I guess, but is wonderful to hear how you are progressing and how my posts keep you motivated.

I wish you all the best success.

Thanks for the motivation Loide. Looks like everybody has to go through that path...patience, persistence, perseverance, consistence..
Take care. :)

That is so true I cannot agree more with you.
Right now i really need perseverance. Thanks for the encouragement.

We're here for each other. That's what friends are for. :))

Very true!

Awesome story. Thanks for sharing. Have a great week.

Most appreciated. and your beautiful Monday.
