a surprising reply from questions posted in a comment!

 
Teodor http://www.apsense.com/user/mteodor started an interesting thread in one of his groups. http://www.apsense.com/article/105901.html  It is about the business of internet marketing and compiling a list of 100 questions to be answered. what would the top 100 questions be for any network marketer? This is the beginnings of that discussion ...
Six months from now I will be online. I call it the trickle up theory. At some point in time...some sooner than others...a little bit of money starts to come in from here and there. That's when you know you need to do what you've done right and learn even more and better ways to market online...

I'm not sure if this answers any questions... I think I was supposed to formulate a question and I answered it?

how about: What is a realistic expectation for earning online?

Can you start earning when you only "Join free; Advertise Free?"
Should I set a time table for quitting if I'm not earning by then?

What is success? If it takes me 12 months or more to learn what I'm doing online regarding websites and affiliates should I expect to earn much that first year?

I've heard of a program that gives a 12 month guarantee with full refund for the monthly payments but I don't feel it's a good business. Am I being overly cautious?

Hi Beth,

Let me try to write brief answers to your Q:

1. What is a realistic expectation for earning online?

In the cyberspace business is like in any real world business: if you have few basic pillars, including strong DESIRE to succeed combined with your main business GOAL and a clear set of OBJECTIVES, linked with KNOWLEDGE and hard but smart WORK, you will succeed! Guaranteed 99.9% If you want I can write you privately my failures and successes in the real life, family and business world, so you can learn to avoid making the same mistakes I did.

2. Can you start earning when you only "Join free; Advertise Free?"

You can make few bucks but never have profits like a real entrepreneur does…

3. Should I set a time table for quitting if I'm not earning by then?

Yes, sure, I did this many times. No reasons to waste your precious time given by God with weak and mediocre things in your life, including online “business opportunities”.

4. What is success? If it takes me 12 months or more to learn what I'm doing online regarding websites and affiliates should I expect to earn much that first year?

Get rich quick schemes and so called business opportunities are “making” you rich rapidly. But in the real online business world (and the GOOOD news is that this world exists!), you need to learn and get the knowledge about the business you want to start. If you don’t do this from the beginning, you’re condemned to death and failure with your online adventure, and you’ll join those over, statistically said, 95% disappointed online marketers.

5. I've heard of a program that gives a 12 month guarantee with full refund for the monthly payments but I don't feel it's a good business. Am I being overly cautious?

I’ll better forget about these empty promises and look for something real and safe.

I hope this helps,

Teodor

The question in the title is rhetorical, so you don’t have to answer it right away but it should challenge you to THINK and put another questions…

Well, that is all I can think of right now...

I've spent about 3 years floundering around the net, spent about 2 thousands dollars on junk “business opportunities” and after that I've decided to look for the best and for the REAL.

I’ve found FEW things that really work on the Internet and am ready to share with you for saving your precious time.

I’m leading a short survey for you to help me understand your online needs and questions.

Feel free to publish you questions here. After collecting 100 Q – together with my partners and JVs - we’ll try to do our best to give the most accurate and honest answers.

Thanks a lot for your VERY IMPORTANT contribution.

P.S.
Even if some are ok, I DO NOT want to talk here about weak affiliate programs and links, MLMs or matrix schemes. So, if this is your idea about BUSINESS just don't join this group, or join but give up to such kind of idea. Thanks for understanding.
