"How Long Does It Take to Make Money with Wealthy Affiliate?"
This is a very common question to anyone jumping into internet business and affiliate marketing for the first time. It can take any number of forms.
- "Can you share how much money you're making per month?"
- "How long will it take me to profit?"
- "How long before I'm making around $1000-$5000 per month with this?"
The answer to "How Long Does It Take to Make Money with Wealthy Affiliate?" isn't much different than it would be for anyone starting a traditional brick and mortar business from scratch, and that answer is this:
"It depends."

Thank you Eric, you hear these people telling their story about how they were broke and destitute, but they did this one great thing and overnight they were rolling in cash. (I think a lot of them just gloss over a year or two of hard work).
Success comes in time, but there is some hard work to be done in between and as you pointed out, if you get the foundation right it will come in time.

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

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.

Well you already know my issue, PATIENCE. I've not been patient with traditional business either. I've got timelines for a lot of things. Sometimes, timelines make me work harder to achieve my goal. Most times my timelines are unrealistic to others but I work my ass off to achieve what I want. Sometimes I met it, other times I don't so I set another timeline.
I work for a spa and started my own business after graduating from Massage school in 2012. I got no clients really my first year, second year I ran Living Social specials just to get my name out there. I called this sweat equity because I made nothing per client. LS made the most of it. Maintained some of them but life got in the way, divorces, lost jobs and moving. So again I was at scratch one. My point, I never gave up, still have my office, still work full time at the spa. Was named Best MT in 2015 in my area. I've got referred clients coming in. My problem is that I work way too much now. But I never gave up.
I hate failure, it pisses me off to the umpteenth level. No matter how frustrated I get or how much crap I talk I will press on. I've given up in the pass because I didn't want to do the work. I know what it takes just didn't want to do it. Now I don't have a choice. I can't continue at the pace I'm at.
Took a break for a few days from here. Got my piss and vinegar back, lets get it done. Working on bringing that traffic I need.
Welcome back.

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.
