I read a great post today on the Warrior Forum ( http://www.warriorforum.com/forum/ ) asking how much money have spent online?
It set me thinking and it was great to read the differing responses. There were some people who have spent tens of thousands online to build their businesses and most of them cited ebooks and marketing courses as being where a big chunk of the cash goes.
On the other hand there were others that have only spent $100 in the past 5 years!!
So What Is The Right Amount To Spend?
Only you can answer that! All I know is that the more you invest in education the quicker you will learn how to be successful.
I spent a good few years online thinking I could learn it all myself and steered away from all those big name gurus. But after loads of frustration I decided to bite the bullet and see what they had to say.
It was when I actually started learning from the real pros that I started to really start earning decent money online.
On a more general note - I now have a personal goal to read 100 books this year. In this age, and on the Internet in particular, the one single thing that has the largest impact on your earnings is INFORMATION.
Not to put too fine a point on it but what you know is what you earn.

Hi Michael,
“It was when I actually started learning from the real pros that I started to really start earning decent money online.”
That’s exactly what I’m trying to do Michael - learning from the experts like yourself
I have a personal goal to learn as much as I can from the experts and purchased several courses over the last couple of months to assist me with my education.
BTW - I’ve been watching your free videos - they’re really good. Congratulations !
All the best,

I’m not saying that I am making millions yet but I have learnt some really good and useful stuff from your videos that has made me money for doing very little. I wouldn’t have known about Adsense and affillate programmes without your help. Thanks heaps.

Jessy,
When you’re trying to establish links try to remember these things:
- Add their link to your site first
- Add their link in a prominent place
- Make it easy for them to link to you (give them the code there and then)
- Don’t say too much in the email and try and make it different from all the others.
I also suggest you start writing articles to promote your site.

Hi Michael
I purchased your websitemarketingbible just the other day and I’m stuck into it. I’ve found your video course truly insightful after having read so many ebooks and courses I’m overjoyed at the information you offer so freely. My main problem right now is that I began with no knowledge of sitebuilding and so took the easy and quick option of a website creator package. This proved great to begin with but now I find it so restricting. I have 2 sites recognised and ranked with the search engines, earning me a limited profit, but on which I can’t use adsense. So I’m now tackling my dreamweaver tutorials to start all over again. Your information has given me much to look forward to.
Thanks very much
Teri
