Yes, You Can Make Money
Online In 24 Hours!
I
know two great ways to do this, though I am sure there are more.
In fact, there are as many options for making m0ney online as
you can sit down and think up. Every business model is unique
- or at least, as unique as the person managing it.
On
that note, I would suggest to someone who is new to eBiz to choose
something - anything - and take action on it! There is no better
way to learn than by DOING... and from that point you can ask
very specific questions and find very helpful answers (either
through Google or a topic-specific discussion forum). You can
then test things for yourself, learn as you go, and try different
business models one right after the other.
Getting
started seems to be the "hard part" - so get started!
Everything gets easier from there ;)
Back to 2 ways that you can make m0ney online in 24 hours:
1)
JV Brokering
If
you've been studying Internet Marketing for any amount of time,
no doubt you've heard this term before. JV Brokering is the act
of brokering a deal between a merchant and a webmaster or publisher
that reaches their target market.
Willie
Crawford wrote an excellent (easy to follow, step-by-step) guide
on JV Brokering in which he explains how you can start out with
NO product, NO list and NO website... and begin setting up Joint
Ventures right away.
You'll
remember that I sent an email earlier this week to let you know
about the "half price deal" on this book. Well, that
deal ends TODAY. So if you are at all interested in brokering
joint ventures, take a look before midnight:

TIP:
I would suggest that you consider brokering these deals outside
of the Internet Marketing niche. There are TONS of niches out
there that are full of products and webmasters... that haven't
even been *touched* by anything that even resembles competition
;)
2)
Pay-per-Click
There's
definitely no secret about this one: You can begin earning m0ney
right away by setting up a Pay-Per-Click (PPC) account. Google
Adwords is one of the more popular options, and you can find TONS
of free information and advice on this particular method by doing
a search or visiting popular discussion forums.
In
fact, here is a great set of PPC Tips you
can download free, written by Aaron Wall
(author of the SEO Ebook): Free
PPC Tips
TIP: I would suggest starting out with less competitive
keywords that you can place ads for with a minimum bid (5 cents
per click on Adwords). Choose a less competitive niche, and promote
a brand name product.
While
"Internet Marketing" and "ClickBank" may *seem*
like good options, they are very competitive and best saved for
when you have more experience under your belt ;)
What
prompted this quick email today was an article I found on Jim
Edwards' blog titled: "Can you *really* make m0ney online
in 24 hours?..." You can find that article here:

Jim
is the author of 'Turn Words Into Traffic!', which is a book I
began reading this week shortly after the release of ArticleAnnouncer
(the new product out by Jason Potash).
It
was brought up that ArticleAnnouncer is a higher priced product,
and a bit out of reach for many people that would love to learn
more and benefit from the traffic & exposure they could gain
from this marketing strategy.
It
IS an excellent marketing strategy, without a doubt! And Jason's
software really does make the task easier through automation &
organization. That said, if you would like a lower-priced guide
(and I mean a 150+ page "nothing missed" serious how-to
guide!) then you should check out Jim Edwards' book on the topic.
You can get a copy for only 39 bucks!
I've
been reading it myself this week, and have gotten A LOT out of
it. Jim goes into great detail about the writing process, the
marketing strategy, and the WHY of everything. In fact, there
are exercises throughout the entire book that are extremely thought-provoking
and will have ANYone writing articles like a pro (you can forget
the term "writer's block"!!).
You
can get all of the details at:

Not only does it make a great (affordable) alternative... it would
even make a great addition to ArticleAnnouncer! For under 40 bucks,
you are really going to get A LOT out of this guide!

it out for yourself:
