4 Ways to Get Your First Few Sales Online

4 Ways To Get Your First Few Sales Online4 Ways To Get Your First Few Sales Online : We’re going to give you some advice that we wish someone had given us when starting out, about making your first few sales online.

The first and very most important thing for any startup business is to focus ALL your energy on getting your first few sales, because those first sales will start bringing in cash. You need that cash flow as soon as possible.  We’re accountants so we understand that very well!

4 Ways To Get Your First Few Sales Online

Here’s why you should go after the money first: Most people focus on all the wrong things when they’re getting started. When they start running out of money, they panic and a few months later, they usually just quit the whole business.

For example, a friend started an online business. He started writing on his blog every day, but one day we noticed it had been a few months since we had seen his blog, so we asked him what happened.

Without fully realizing it, he was spending all his time creating a fancy logo. He was getting all the latest plug-ins. He was busy, so it felt like he was getting something done.

A week went by, then a month went by, and after three months he had not made a single dollar. After a while of continuing to have nothing coming in, while you’re spending all this time doing all of these things, that really starts to almost get depressing.

You know, a lot of people they go through this same exact situation. After half a year they’ve spent all this time doing all of this stuff they thought would bring them money, but no cash is actually showed up in their bank account.

4 Ways to Get Your First Few Sales OnlineLet’s assume right now that you’re at Point A and just getting started.

Your next goal—Point B—is where you’re having an online business or any business that’s bringing you cash flow.

If you want to get from point A to point B in the shortest amount of time possible, with the least resistance, you want to go there with a straight line. But most people get distracted. They are zig-zagging, taking a very long path, and wasting time.

You’ve got your offer—whatever offer it is you’re promoting. Let’s say you’re a MOBE affiliate and you’re promoting MOBE, or let’s say you’re an affiliate for another company you found on ClickBank or wherever it is.

You have a very simple goal, the straight line, which is to get people to click that link and be exposed to the offer to actually see the offer. People click the link, they watch the offer, they watch the sales presentation, and a small percentage of them will buy. When they do, you get a commission.

So that would be my advice to anyone who’s starting out. Just pick that shortest line from point A to point B, find the offer, and focus on getting people to that offer.

Place Online Ads

You’re only goal in life at this point—is to get traffic landing on your offer page, and buying whatever you’re promoting.

Focus all your efforts to get people in front of the offer. If you are targeting the right people—the people actually interested in whatever product or services being sold—then a few of them will click your ad and go to your offer landing page.

If you have enough people in front of the offer, then a small percentage of them will buy. And even if it’s only one or two percent… you can still make millions.

If you’ve got the right mindset, and you’re ready to start making cash online, the secret is pretty simple: Start by placing ads online.

When you enough people clicking your ads, and they’re the right people, a small percentage of them will buy—and you will start getting paid.

Stick with just ONE marketing method

Here’s a tip that will help you avoid the trap most people fall right into…

Don’t waste your time trying to learn ten different marketing methods of getting traffic.

Most people starting out will fall into this trap of trying all kinds of “traffic sources.” They try one traffic method. It doesn’t immediately work because they’re still very new at it, and then maybe they get an email from some guru telling them about this new secret traffic source.

They buy that product, and now they’re on to learning the next traffic method. They constantly jump from one to the next, and they never truly master one traffic method or become proficient in it. And again, that causes no money to show up.

To summarise, if we were starting all over again from scratch and wanted to start making money quickly online, we would do the following four-things:

1. Avoid distractions — Don’t get caught up in designing a logo or getting all the latest plug-ins. Just stick with promoting your products.

2. Get from point A-to-B — Remember the quickest way from point A to point B is a straight line. Your goal is to get people to click that Ad link and to actually see the offer.

3. Set up Paid Ads to drive traffic to your offer page, and a small percentage of people will buy your offer. That’s how you get paid.

4. Stick with ONE marketing method — We would just focus on Facebook marketing at first. If you don’t understand Facebook Marketing then get this course as it’s invaluable, right up to date and perfect for beginners.

However, if you really want to cut your learning curve—and start making money as soon as today, I have an even better option for you.

ebookwifiMatt Lloyd just released his new eBook Wi-Fi Millionaire which shows you how to make a Full-Time Income Working Part-Time, from Anywhere in the world—with simply a Wi-Fi connection.

Wi-Fi Millionaire is based on his experience of building a $150 million company while traveling the world and working virtually from tropical locations like Fiji, Costa Rica, Cancun, and the Caribbean islands.

In it, you’ll learn how to make work fit your life, not the other way around, and build a strong financial foundation for retirement at the same time (if that’s the position you are in as it was for us).

And you’ll learn the marketing strategies that could make you more in just 5-hours a week than most people make working 50-hours a week.

In fact, if you’re willing to rethink everything you know about “work” then you can take advantage of this “New Economy” and make more money than you ever dreamed possible.

This book will get you on the path to success much faster. The best part, it’s only $3.

The Ultimate Retirement Breakthrough

The Ultimate Retirement Breakthrough

The Ultimate Retirement BreakthroughThis is the story of our ultimate retirement breakthrough with the sincere wish that we can inspire you to take a positive step towards achieving your ultimate retirement breakthrough and dream retirement lifestyle …. whatever your age

We don’t know what your retirement looks like to you NOW as you are reading this but for us it was knowing that when the time came we would reap the rewards of what we had worked hard for.

  • Time to travel and see the world
  • Time to have some fun
  • Time to spend with our family and especially our grand-children
  • Tme to do something we were passionate about

Our “Ultimate Retirement Breakthrough” Story

It had always been our dream to retire at 50 but with five children between us and a successful management consultancy practice working 6-7 days a week, 10-12 hours a day we parked that dream for a while.

Then in 2005 we took the plunge to create a property portfolio to fund our retirement and all was looking rosey until the worldwide recession of 2008.  Who could have predicted that!  The result was that our pension nest egg was blown out of the water and our property portfolio was in danger of becoming a milstone round our necks.

We really couldn’t see ourselves working for the rest of our lives living hand to mouth on a tiny pension

Then our ultimate retirement breakthrough took us to online entrepreneurship – more by luck than choice if we’re honest.  We were looking for online business education for our clients to help them to leverage the internet to grow their businesses and that research took us on an exciting journey of discovery ..

One that would lead to us creating an online business and giving notice to our management consultancy clients and starting on a brand new adventure.

One of our favourite quotes comes from Brian Tracy really says it all …

“I found that every single successful person I’ve ever spoken to had a turning point and the turning point was where they made a clear, specific, unequivocal decision that they were not going to live like this anymore. Some people make that decision at 15 and some people make it at 50 and most never make it at all …”

Making a decision as you read this will be THE MOST IMPORTANT one you ever make especially if you are in your 40’s, 50’s or 60’s and your best made plans are not quite what you hoped they would be.

the ultimate retirement breakthroughWe’re huge evangelists for mid life entrepreneurship and adamantly believe that this is an alternative that anyone in or approaching retirement should consider given the opportunity versus being forced into a career change through circumstances.

In fact according to a recent article in Forbes, 52% of new home business owners are over 55 and 79% are over 45

Now we know that if you ask many in the corporate world why they haven’t gone into business for themselves they can produce a list as long as their arm as to why it is not a viable alternative – risk of failure, start up costs, no idea how to start, not enough business skills, don’t have the energy – and the list goes on.

Strangely enough that was us too!  Because we were not actually aware of the alternatives out there (especially the online entrepreneurship alternatives) and honestly we know entrepreneurial start-ups are not for everyone (especially in the traditional “bricks and mortar” sense).  However we sincerely believe that you owe it to yourself to explore with an open mind if online entrepreneurship might be just the solution you have been looking for … We would never have considered starting another business had we not discovered online entrepreneurship and in particular affiliate marketing (even though we didn’t know what it was at the time)  Sometimes luck does play a part!

The Ultimate Retirement Breakthrough And Why Mid Life Entrepreneurship

  • You have your years of wisdom and maturity on your side
  • Your children have probably left home and you can focus on you
  • Mid Life Entrepreneurship can be the solution to an underfunded retirement
  • The opportunity to gain control of your life and your future
  • Your enterprise can be funded with existing equity and/or retirement equity
  • Flexibility to accommodate your dreams and goals as a lifestyle entrepreneur

the ultimate retirement breakthroughAll of these are great but for us the ultimate retirement breakthrough was that we could rescue our retirement and be able to build a business online that we could run from anywhere in the world giving us the freedom to travel that we always saw our retirement fulfilling.

Now it may be that travel is not what floats your boat but there will be things that you really want to do that you might envisage being impossible if you don’t take action today!

Online entrepreneurship may not be your choice but it’s one of the simplest ways to get started to achieve your ultimate retirement breakthrough and our top recommendation – because we’ve done it and we know it can work.

Top Tips For Starting An Online Business

First and foremost do your due diligence and then when you are satisfied that you want to proceed then find someone you  know, like and trust to work with.  These are our top 3 :-

  • You have to work with people who have done what you want to do and are willing to help and guide you
  • You have to have a proven system that’s simple to follow and will work for you even if you’ve never done anything like this before
  • You need a personal coach who will take you by the hand and show you exactly what to do step by step

We know from personal experience that these are the essential elements and missing for most people searching to start an online business – they might get one but rarely all three.

That’s why the Ultimate Retirement Breakthrough is for you

Thanks for joining us here today on our blog and do get back to us if you have any questions or we can help you take the necessary steps towards your ultimate retirement breakthrough.

After all …. this is not about us but about YOU!
