Well it’s been a while since I last posted but it’s been for a very good reason which I will get to soon. First of all I want to say thank you to all the comments (well the nice one’s anyway) that have been left. Because I have been away I have not checked my comment’s and I found that I got over 200 hundred within the spam box. I am currently in the process of getting through them and will reply to all the questions that have been asked. Many of the comments have been spam and automated messages left by idiots, and some by people who just seem to enjoy posting abuse as they seem to get a kick out of it I guess. What a sad life some people live eh? I am sure there are more important issues in life to be getting on with.

OK, this post is for all the people out there who actually want to use the internet to make a living online. I just want to comment on something that has been getting to me lately then I will inform you of what I have been discovering about the marketing world.

There are over 1 trillion pages of useful information online, that’s right, over 1 trillion pages of useful, intruiging, fascinating, fact filled pages for us to indulge in absolutely free of charge. The World Wide Web is an amazing platform and opportunity that has been given to us and so we must embrace it fully and reap the benefits, or so you would think. 

It seems to me that everybody I speak to.. either tells me who they were chatting to on Facebook the previous night, who they have been tweeting, or tells me to go and check out a funny video on You-tube that they have seen. Don’t get me wrong, these social network platforms are great and I do use them myself from time to time, although I do not have a Facebook account yet. I say that because these platforms can be used for some great leveraging in the world of internet marketing, and that is why I will be using them in the near future, purely for business, marketing, and making money online.

If you are 1 of the millions of people spending/wasting all that time on social network sites, then why don’t you use at least some of that time to learn how to make a living online?

I have been learning the online marketing game for about 9 months now and I can honestly say that it is the best career choice I have made. I started to learn the marketing game from scratch and I believe that if you want to do it properly, then it will take time. I don’t want to learn how to make a quick buck, I want a career online making money for the rest of my life. Just imagine it, your own boss, working from home, at times to suit you, more free time for you and your family, and if you do it right and put in the hard work now then you can have more money than you ever imagined.

I hope I have struck a nerve with at least 1 person and it will make a difference to somebody’s online antics and habits. I was once that person wasting time online doing nothing but now I have a purpose everytime I switch my computer on and it’s the best feeling ever.

This post will not be much use to most readers of this blog, sorry, I just fancied a little rant. I will now start my next post which will definately be of use to new starters in the world of online information marketing. Thanks for staying with this post, hopefully the informative next post should be up within 24 hrs.

Hello my beloved readers and followers( I wish), no really, thanks for all the advice and comments I am getting, it is a great community we have here, loving it. OK, yet again I am not going to be giving out any secrets of how to make  millions online just yet, you have to wait for that, it is coming though, I promise.

Well, I have been settling into my new home and I am almost finding some time now to get this marketing game really up and running. I have so many ideas to investigate its great to be so excited about something that I am involved in and which is going to finally get me out of the 9-5 rat race.  We need to be 100% focused on this game or otherwise it will not happen, it is not a hobby or passing interest, it is the start of a new career and the rest of your life.  That is the first bit of important advice for newbies, if you want it to work, take it seriously, or it will not happen for you.

When I first started this blog I was saying how I was never going to go back to working on a building site ever again, and that I was going make this marketing game work. Well, I have gone back to the building work, as I guess I was getting a little carried away with finding out about all the money making opportunities online. However, there is now a massive difference with my outlook and attitude to my job that was not there before.  Why? Because instead of going to work and being depressed and spend allday moaning about it, I am now in the process of doing something about it. So now I know there is a massive light at the end of that dark depressing tunnel  because I know I am not going to be covered in crap and dealing with jobsworths for the next 30 years.

That is the next bit of advice I can give,  if you are thinking of getting into marketing, then actually start doing at least a little something everyday. Do some researching, get a blog set up, anything to get yourself involved basically. I can gaurantee it will have a dramatic improvement on your outlook and attitude towards life and your career in general. Get that zest for life back as its not as bad as we think, we just get stuck in a rut and our own little comfort zones. I have said before, there is a world of riches just outside our comfort zones.

OK, now this next little bit of advice is basically what I have learnt in the past couple months. It is about all the marketers sales letters we come across out there, claiming this ‘n’ that and how easy it is to make a packet within a matter of days.

The first issue I have is when certain marketers, mainly the big players claim that their product will earn you XX amount of thousands of dollars within days. They offer you the exact model they used to make their thousands for a crazy small fee. They show us receipts after receipts of proof, and testimonials after testimonials of recent product users. I am not saying that these are false claims, far from it, it would be unlawful, most are probably very true indeed.  There is one very large important detail, or fact, that they never seem to mention in their fantastic sales pages.

What is it? It is the size of their subscriber list, it is probably in the thousands. The satisfied testimonials left by other marketers are also aided by the size of their subscriber lists. It is like the secret circle of big listed marketers who all big each others products up so that it looks like anybody can make money if they purchase the offered products. You purchase the product, you set it up, you dont make a penny. Why? Because you realise you have nobody, a targeted market to be precise, to offer the product to.

You are on that marketers list of targetted buyers together with thousands of other targetted buyers. If only a certain percentage buys then that marketer is quids in. Unless you have a substantial list yourself, then do not get taken in by the promise of making thousands. As a newbie, that is another bit of important advice, build your list before you can even dream of making any subsstantial amounts of money.

Hopefully that was a  bit of advice that will help you on your way in the world of making money online. I want to write more but Kath is giving me that look of  “how long are you going to be on that computer for?” So in a day or 2 I will have a part 2 to this post maybe and tell a little more of what I have learned and what to look out for when starting out.

Thanks for taking the time out to read my post, now get the ball rolling and keep your wits about you.

Hi, and first of all, i need to apologise to a few people, you know who you are. It is summer time here and i spend all my spare time outside walking, camping, down the beach, basically, anything that keeps me away from my computer. A few people have left me comments and got in touch through e-mail, I will get back to you, as soon as the sun goes away for a day or 2 first though.
Secondly,if you visit my blog and you enjoy what you read and listen to, then subscribe to the easycash webinar banner to the right hand side. This is not an order, its just that i have not had time to sort out a newsletter opt-in box yet, as i’m always having fun in the sun. This way, i can inform you of any news or great freebie’s that i have got ligned up very soon.
Ok, to this weeks video, yes another one, and yes its because i don’t have time to write allday. Don’t get the wrong impression, I’m more passionate about marketing than i have ever been, but i have found the answer to my prayers (if i prayed, Dawkins rules), and it will be the making of my internet career, I guarantee you that. If you are interested in what the video is about, leave a comment, or subscribe, and look out, as i will be explaining in more detail very soon.
Honestly, I am so excited to what I have just started to embark on, its going to change everything, you need to take note, its the dogs!
Peace all… Nicky

Hi folks, sorry i have not posted for a while. I have had a few issues to deal with, mainly technical (again). Big thanks to those who have helped me out, you know who you are, I appreciate it big time.

Ok, this won’t be a long post as I have added a video to explain it a bit better, mainly to get me used to doing videos to be honest, but I hope I get it across ok.

The main reason for this video post is to explain how important it is to keep your wits about you in the marketing game. I want it to explain that if we want to make money in this game, we need to start to analyse how we are getting marketed to. We need to learn how successful marketers use the sales funnel to suck prospects in, and make the big bucks with the high priced back end products.

Enjoy, learn, and catch up soon.. peace, Nicky.

Did i hook you in?  did i?

Did you think… what the hell is this crazy guy talking about?

He doesn’t care about driving traffic?

The traffic that we all crave…

The traffic that we all need to survive…

The traffic that we all desperately drive to our sites to make a living online…

…and that same traffic that is the be all and end all of this crazy cyber space world we choose to revolve a big percentage of our lives around!

Well… i do care actually, i care a hell of a lot too!

I understand that no traffic to my websites, means that i keep on getting up, day in day out, 5 days a week, 50 weeks a year, for another 30 years to do a job that i hate big time!

Let me explain…

What is the point of driving traffic to my  newly built ‘drive-in,’ for friday nights big blockbuster movie.. and when they pull up all excited with their popcorn and  Pepsi… theres a black & white 17″ portable television, which the front row can’t even focus on through their steering wheel! (more…)

Hi folks… i just thought i would do a quick post about how important it is to plan ahead.. and keep you from suffering from information overload!

I suffered from this over the past couple of days and so i did a quick video about it while i was recovering from it…  just a bit of fun really.. just for you to see.. even us guru’s suffer from all this crazy marketing stuff!

I shall be posting soon.. hope you can relate to the vid below….. chow for now.

Hi, welcome, and maybe a return visit for some, well what a crazy time. Its 100mph at the moment, but loving every moment of it. I have been having a think about this next post, and i took a pen and notebook to bed with me last night, and scribbled down every reason why i want this to work so bad, and why i am going to succeed. So hopefully you will read and relate to what i write, and get inspired to take action and get that life we all deserve if we have a desire to work at it.

You see, everything i get involved with in my life, i make sure that its right for me. i check it out, plan how i am going to go about it, then i go head on into it, with 110% commitment and a passion that will drive me on until im satisfied i have done my best and that i cannot get any more out of it, or put any more into it. (more…)

Well, here we go, my first meaningful blogpost, and the first steps to a new life.

If your reading this as an experienced marketer, or a fresh newbie like me, thanks, and welcome to you both.
