Trying Out More and More Dumb Internet Projects While Making Less and Less Profits?

I will reveal right here and now THE 'Secret Formula' for making money online that most people just don't seem to recognize. On a daily basis I communicate with many would-be net tycoons who are making this mistake over and over again.

I should know a lot about this, because even though I now have long experience creating many successful direct marketing projects, I too started out as one of the hippity-hop, opportunists.

What I'm talking about happens everyday as we netrapreneurs surf the Internet. We read a little Google news, go to random websites, study competitors ads, check out new products and services of interest and more.

And while we're involved in all of this so-called, "daily research," something starts to boil in our brains...

We get that "mental itch" once again...

"I know I could make some money with this new gimmick," you say to yourself.

And so here we go again. We order and download the product, jerk out our laptops and quickly type an outline for the new project, that's going to make us an easy fortune. We get really hyped for a few days while dreaming about how we're going to spend all the money that's going to flow in from this project.

But then something else takes place in the brain.

We magically discover the next potential moneymaker while doing some more daily surfing. Then another. And another...there's always more and more guru promises to consider!

Yet, what happens in reality is...we never completely finish anything. We never fully develop any of those ideas and market them aggressively. Therefore, these fool gimmicks end up making us...NOTHING...ZERO...ZILCH!

If you haven't figured out the problem yet, listen...there's more money to be made on the internet by executing one thing in a GREAT way than trying to do 12 half-assed things. Go write that on your wall. It could be worth serious money to you if you wake up and really get an iron grip on the concept.

If you take just ONE, simple idea and develop it all the way, you will have a chance to add a real BUSINESS to your portfolio, not just jacking around with one gimmicky project after another. With a REAL business going, you can steadily reinvest in it and build it from your continuously growing profits.

If you don't want to simply be a broke "opportunist" for the rest of your days, then you should start centering all of your attention online toward building a BUSINESS. Once started, you should focus your time on growing something new for the business everyday (like signing up affiliates for your products and services, creating JV deals, testing better places to advertise, discovering new, on-target keywords you haven't tried before, steadily adding content to your site that the search engines can spider and much, much more.)

If you're not making more money now than you did last month, or the month before, you're going about it WRONGLY. Growing your profits online is fairly EASY if you follow the simple philosophy of...DAILY GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT.

On a monthly basis you should be able to award yourself a PAY RAISE by growing your business and having it become more profitable.

But you CAN'T ever do this if you are constantly jumping around like a bull frog on a hot plate to new opportunities and "potential" projects. You need to STOP IT RIGHT NOW and get off your butt and go into action with the project showing the greatest SHORT-TERM profit potential, just to see what happens. Be a "bull dog" and get a grip on your business plan.

When it starts to make a little profit, then your next move is to...

Fine Tune Your Business System As Precisely As You Can...Then REPLICATE It!

I also see many web entrepreneurs actually launch a new product or service and make some profit, only to jump onto something else too quickly. THEY ARE SIMPLY SCATTERED!

If you already have ANY online project that makes some money, there's a real probability that the same business could be pulling in exponential multiples of what it's currently making. You do see that, right? Don't even try to rationalize to me how you've tried everything to drive new leads to your site because there's NO POSSIBLE WAY that's true. The Internet is a humongous place. Your business, no matter what size, is only scratching the surface of the sales you could be making.

So stop screwing around with so many different "ideas" and gimmicky projects. Ideas by themselves aren't worth JACK Sh-T!

You do understand that even an ordinary idea, that's at least executed and takes in a little bit of money, is worth far more than the greatest idea in the history of the Internet that's never put into action, don't you?

My advice to you, if you want to make real money, is to narrow it down to what you already have that's making some profit and then go off somewhere quiet for a few hours with a notepad and pen. Don't come home until you can clearly articulate at least 100 new ways to generate more income from THAT business.

Then prioritize those ways in the order of which ones stand to make you the most money, fastest...and attack those first...drive that business deeply into the black before moving on...make it WORK for you!
