Make Money On The Internet Doing What You Love.
For many years the words great thought leaders like Deepak Chopra and Dr. Wayne Dyer and have replayed themselves in my mind on the subject of doing what you love. Paraphrasing them for you here, consider the following:
What it is that you love to do so much that you would do it for free?
What brings you so much joy that when you are involved with it time seems to stand still?
Looking back over your life and circumstances what has your journey taught you, that now makes you uniquely qualified to benefit others?
I invite you to pause here to grab a pen and a blank sheet of paper and take a few minutes to actually STOP and answer those questions for yourself. If you are wondering how do you make money on the internet with this...it starts by getting the money issue out of the way first for some self discovery. You will be able to allow the money to flow more freely to you when you first find out what is more authentic for you to be doing.
Now, many years later that message seems to be louder than ever. How many of us have been so busy doing our "jobs" or "chasing" money that we are spending very little time actually doing what we love? Or even worse...what if we forgot what that even was? Forgetting about the money, what would be FUN for you to do right now? If this is a challenge, let me give you some assistance. Imagine that I am giving you a Magic Wand. All you financial concerns are now completely gone.
Now, what would you like to do for yourself, that is FUN?
With the freedom to do anything that you wish, what FEELS EXCITING that you would most like to do?
Now let those images and feelings come up and notice what is there for you.
I believe that We, as Spiritual Beings, are guided by feelings of love, fun and excitement. But the practical side of us has been so busy "Doing", that we have forgotten to tap into our feelings. When you pay attention to the answers to the above exercise, you are almost magically guided to start participating in your life purpose. You begin to discover what it is that you "Are Here For". That can be more than one thing. It can be a wondrous adventure with an infinite variety of joys that await you. Allow this to evolve as you learn to implement the following essentials to make money on the internet.
The internet allows you many opportunities for income. You may discover from the above exercises that you have a unique message or product to get out to the world. You may also find that there are like minded individuals that have already created something that is in wonderful alignment with you. They may have already done all the work online and have an affiliate program that you can promote and generate extra income immediately. Either way, having an interactive blog is one of the essential components to generating top page rankings on google. When you are doing what you love, it is easy to talk or write about it. So whether you are stepping into the internet for your own product or joining forces with others, the following is a list of basics that you will want to create for your success.
Five Critical Internet Marketing Components:
1. Branded Website (Credibility)
Tapping into your core values, purpose and message will be of great assistance with developing your Brand. Include your product or service, contact information and testimonials clearly displaying the benefits.
2. Interactive Blog (Daily Communication - Interaction)
This is where the fun comes in when you are doing what you love. Tie your messages and products to key words that your prospects are using to find what you have to offer. Many free resources are available for you to discover words and phrases your prospects are using to find you. "Google Search-Based Keyword tool" is one example.
3. Automated Sales/Marketing System (High Conversion from Prospect to Customer)
Sales Pages, Landing Pages and Auto Responders do all the work through automation so you do not need to be constantly on the phone or in meetings with customers.
4. Organized Database (prospect list and customer list marketing strategy)
Systems are available to target your specific niche market and file them automatically in one location for strategic correspondence.
5. Formalized Affiliate Program (Partner Program)
Make it easy for others the spread the word about what you have to offer by providing them their own unique link that tracks all the sales they make for you and handles their commission payouts as well. ClickBank is one such resource for setting up these systems.
If some of these concepts are new to you and you start to feel overwhelmed you may be asking "Where do I begin?" Focus on what you love to do. Fill out your profile on some social media authority sites like Facebook, Twitter, Google Buzz and YouTube. Be authentic with the world about who you are and what you are about. Be generous by using the 80/20 rule. That means give away your content and value 80% of the time and only ask for something on the marketing side 20% of the time. Create lasting relationships. Great success can be yours by investing some time into yourself with very little cost to learn internet marketing strategies. For those that do not have the time but have the money, many of these tools can be outsourced and done for you. Either way, your unique message is worth it and the world is ready to hear all about it. Remember to have fun with it and get started today.
