Really glad to help! :) thank you!

I think the point being made is that no one's personal experience can help someone else regarding this subject. Eric did give two examples of himself taking a few weeks, and the person who referred him taking months. Is it helpful if I tell you it took me five years to see profit? What if you can do it in a year? It's not helpful. It may be entertaining but it could be harmful, because if you stop because it took someone 5 years, or you expect to make it in weeks, you're going to be pressured by something that's not PERSONAL to you. It is natural to want to ask those kind of questions but it's up to you to answer those questions for yourself by doing the work and making your own personal success story. You have it in you, we all do :)

Well I guess my answer in the training above isn't the one you wanted to hear, (even though I know you didn't fully read this training because I do mention in it how long it took me personally to get my first commission lol), but my answer is still the one you really need to hear. Here's the point:

Imagine I answer your question by saying it took me 6 weeks to get my first commission, or imagine I say it took me 6 months. Imagine the next guy you ask says it took 9 months, and he was ready to give up after 8 months, but now he makes full time income 2 years in with consistent $4k months. Then the next several you ask tell you how they worked this on and off and made nothing, followed by the guy who says he worked it very hard and made just enough to cover his membership. And to finish it off I tell you about my referral who made 2 sales within 30 minutes of her first post being published.

Does any of that help you? Cuz that's what you're telling me you want to hear. The thing is, if you're honest, you already knew these would be the answers before even asking the question, right?

All results are going to be different because almost none of the variables are the same for every single member. But you knew that.

Different themes, different niches, different websites, different content, different writing style, different audience, different styles, different amounts of time worked, different everything. You see why I answer it the way I do now?

It's cuz being reminded of the things that are actually important, like the fact that comparing yourself to another person's timeline of success means nothing when none of those variables are the same, is all that matters. All you can do is focus on you, stay patient with your success, trust the training, and not give up. That's the real secret to this :)

That's the only answer I got, brother :) Hope that helps.

Great answer, Sharlita :) I appreciate your insight.

Awesome response.

We'd all love to see instant returns, and while you can get your first sale or first commission at any time, even on day 1, to set your goal to making full time income I think the best chance you have of being successful is to have a realistic perspective so you can attack that goal with the right mindset, right?

Thanks for the comment, brother.

Really glad that helped you :)

You're welcome.

I appreciate that. Thank you!

That's the best way to be, right? Thanks!

I really appreciate that. Thank you, John!

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that!

Hey we were just talking over in chat. lol. I'm really glad it motivated you.

Lots of people ask for the secret to online business, and you know it really is? The secret is simply sticking with it and not giving up. a HUGE percentage of people don't succeed only because they quit early.

stick with it! :)

Absolutely true.

Here's a couple of training lessons I've put together on building traffic with both on-page and off-page SEO. Hope they help. How Can I Get More Traffic 3 Steps to Take After You Publish a New Post VIDEO TUTORIAL

Thank you much, Eric:
Training very good, very helpful, especially the 3Steps one, never heard before.
I have one more question for you today. Can you please refer me to a good CPA training? Some time ago I managed to become a publisher with Peer Fly and MaxBounty but I never did any work with them.
I would like to get into it, besides blogging.
By the way, I see you have a lot of experience so I will read more from your sites.
Ciao

CPA training as in accounting? I wouldn't even know where to start with that. Sorry! And thanks for checking out my training and my Work From your Laptop site. I appreciate it!

Excellent analogy, brother. That's exactly right. Great comment!

I think it's important to show that there's hard work involved. When there's hard work that means there's a tangible return that can be achieved. What we have here is real training for real online business. I can't emphasize that enough. Thank you for the comment! I appreciate it!

Then everyone could just quit their daytime job and become online millionaires... overnight! Hehe ^^,

Yup. If it was that easy everyone and their mom would have an online business.

You're an inspiration, brother! Thank you for the support and thanks for chiming in! I appreciate it.

I couldn't agree more. Hard work and good training are the absolute keys here. Thanks for the comment!

Awesome. I appreciate that. Thanks for the comment!

Thank you for the comment! I'm glad you enjoyed this. :)

It takes me back to 2 years ago when I joined. I know sometimes those questions are asked because people have been scammed before and they are unsure but, still, they can be irritating to see over and over and over!

I think it's a natural question and the main reason I wanted to create this training was to ease some of those asking it so they realize they don't have to put themselves on such a harsh timeline. The training they get here will deliver in time. They just need to be driven and have patience.

You're very determined, that's easy to see. And just like with your massage business, you mentioned not getting any real clients your first year, and the second year not really making a profit from your clients. You worked through those times because you understood it's a process. In traditional business this is more understood. Can you imagine being able to start a traditional business from scratch for less than $50/month. That's unheard of. Yet so many come to online business and complain about that figure, and then they want to make thousands their first month.

It's to those that this training is pointed at to help them focus on just how good we got it at WA so it's a little easier to stay patient and driven.

$50 a month I could spend in a couple days from eating out or a week of DD's or Starbucks coffee and a sandwich the size of a golf-ball. At one point I couldn't afford that myself. Been there done that but WA is freaking awesome and so worth the $50 a month. For the community alone. Other places ask for a lot more money and don't give you half of what WA offers.

Stay patient and driven, even if you have to bitch about it. That's my way of dealing with my lack of patience. Venting is good for the soul.

amen to that!

I'm glad you liked it. Thanks Pablo!

I think it's the most common question new members ask. I see it all the time in the live chat. Before they even take a look at the training they'll ask "so how much are you guys making?" and you understand where they're coming from but you also know they don't understand all the dynamics of online business yet.

Hopefully this training can be shared with those who ask those questions so they get a little better understanding of just how awesome this platform is.

It was a new person who saw some of my posts lately who commented. You can always tell the new ones!

Yes, I will post the link to your training in my answer!

It's always a matter of sticking to the great training and having patience and a persistent drive. Thanks for the comment!
