Lots of work to be done!

I am absolutely exhausted. There is waaaay more to this course than I could have ever imagined. I have been reading, reading, and more reading for the past couple of days. I only wrote a couple of pieces, but I can not tell you how much reading I have done.

There is so much out there to learn! MOIS points you in the right direction, and you must do with it what you will. If you are lazy, then I definitely recommend you get a real job. There is no way you will make money unless you work hard. I read so much today, I think I forgot most of it already. I will have to go back and reread and take notes.

It is safe to say now that My Online Income System most certainly surpasses my expectations!

Educate yourself!

I have to admit, there is NO way I would have been able to become an affiliate marketer without this course. I did try once, and since I was clueless, I quit. But after doing the My Online Income System program, things make more sense and I and much more able to do this!

I feel that education is key here, and it's not like you can go onto a college campus and take a course as specific as this. I know there are marketing classes, but I feel they would be too general, and cost lots of money.

Here are the top 3 internet marketing courses that you can get. There are many others, but these are the best of the best. I feel that MOIS is the better(that's why I decided to use it!), but the other 2 seem to be pretty decent, and from what I have been reading, the information differs slightly. Some just focus more on certain marketing techniques.

Anyways, I made it through half the course and have lots of work to do!!! I'll keep everyone posted!

Took a 4 day break!

I was not able to get anything done these past few days. A certain little baby boy and husband made sure to that!

But now that things are back to semi-normal, I had the chance to catch up on a few days on the My Online Income System course. It was a little more tedious this time, since the course focused on writing, which is far from my best talents.

Anyways, it does get easier in time, and I managed to pump out a few good pieces. I like how Ms. Hoffman gives you all the sites you need to accomplish goals. It feels like there is someone holding my hand the entire time!

I'm hoping to spring forward to Day 30 tomorrow. I did a sneek-peek at what's ahead and it seems pretty easy. I'm not too certain I'll make my $30 goal by the time my family arrives, due to the time constraint, and how my son's schedule is completely random, and never consistent. Anyone want to babysit?

My First Goal Using this Course

All I want to do is make $30 in the next two weeks, before my family comes to visit me. That's it. Does not seem like much, huh? But the way I see it, if I set lofty goals, then I stand a chance to be disappointed. This way, if I exceed my expectations, then I know that all this work was worth it.

Since there is so much material to digest in this course, I would be foolish to believe that I could read all 60 days of the course in a few days and make cash in a week. There is no way I could process all this and put it to good use. But with "My Online Income System," I can begin making money within the first few days and quite possibly a week.

You do not have to wait to complete the course to see your first sale! It's set up in such a way, that I can't even begin to explain. I'll try and get into further detail in another post, since I spent my day writing on other sites and just can't simply do it right now.

Oh, and I will let everyone know when my first sale comes through...

Day 20

I managed to somehow read about 3-4 eBooks, build my first lens(please check it out!) with Squidoo, and take care of the hubby and baby, all at the same time(sort of). Maybe I'm perfecting my time management skills? HA! More like I am staying up late at night...

Today was probably the most work I have done, but I am proud and excited! I am really starting to believe that this program is onto something. I just hope it works, because I have put forth a lot of time a effort this far, and I could have been doing other things. But time is money, right?

The eBooks that I was "instructed" to read contained even more information than the entire course so far. The books went into further detail about articel writing, finding the perfect keywords, and using blogs to make money. I'm pretty fortunate that I am a few steps ahead, because I tried to do something similar before, only with out any guidance. Definitely glad this program came my way! It's making what I gave up on before, easier, and quite possible!

One thing that scared me was trying to organize everything and digesting it. Just after I told my husband about all the info and my inability to process is, there is a part of the course that deals with it, and just in time! It also keeps you organized for the rest of the journey- you just have to do what Ms. Hoffman tells you to do, and you're fine.

Again, it's late and my two favorite people will be up at 6:30 AM, yay! Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's out there, especially to my hubby(this is his very first!)!

Completed "Day 15!"

Wow...I am just blown away at all the little details when it comes to starting out as an affiliate marketer. It sounded pretty simple, but I just realized that it really isn't. As of right now, I am glad that I have purchased this course. There are a lot of additional(and free) resources that I am finding very useful.

It's pretty late now, so I'm going to retire from the MOIS course until I find some free time tomorrow....

A Few More "Days" Later...

Okay, so I was able to go through a few more days, and have now just completed Day 12 of "My Online Income System." So far, I have to say I am impressed. My first impression before I decided to purchase it, was, must be a scam! But then the friend of mine convinced me otherwise. And I am glad I did! I learned so much in the past few lessons, that I am sure I would be clueless even if I spent an entire month looking up the information on my own!

I was asked to sign up for a website, either the free or not-free one, and am now being asked to sign up for an auto-responder. The responder requires me to pay a monthly fee, and I think I will look into other services to use. Not really sure I want to be spending $20 a month, not knowing where this whole ordeal will lead me.

But back to that website. The one they suggest, is free, but you can not modify and are stuck promoting the 3 products that they have already chosen. But since I am a little more versed in the world of website building, I am going to my GDI(Global Domains International) website that I signed up for a while ago in hopes to make money promoting their products.

Well, since that fell through, I am going to use the site I have from GDI, instead of the one "My Online Income System" suggests. The only reason I kept the website is because GDI offered a lot for only $10 a month. I get a website with the domain name of my choice(if available), hosting, parking, 10 emails accounts, site builders, templates, domain forwarding, name servers, and I think there are some other things I may be missing. And even if you can't make a website, they make it totally easy to do.

When I signed up I watched a goofy little video much like the one on here. Don't bother watching it if you just want to see what GDI has to offer. I would just skip to the sign-up/more info area. And then when you get there, you will see at the bottom of sign-up form, where you can choose what you are interested in. They then taylor your account homepage to suit you. Mine has all the affiliate stuff on it, where someone who just wants the products and not promote, may not have all the sales info I see. It's not a bad service, and you have a better chance getting the domain you want with them. Oh, by the way... .ws stands for website! It took me a long time to figure it out! And I think it is even stated on GDI's site! Total blonde moment!

My First Day...

So I read the reviews and checked out some other details and decided to purchase the "My Online Income System" membership. It was supposed to be $39.95, but I was offered the system for only $17. So I thought, what could I lose? Besides, I had a friend who recommended the product, and felt that he would not lie to me- or at least I hoped not.

Day 1 was pretty short and simple, and I did the first three days worth of the work. I kind of lagged the next few days of the "course work," since my almost one year-old really does not afford me much free time(neither does the hubby or the dog, for that matter.) But so far, I am now on day 8, and have learned way more than I had originally planned. I finished the eBook, and am making progress. I'll probably have to go back and skin the eBook, but that's okay, since I'm hoping the information will stick the second time around.

I have not made any money as of today, and have signed up for the free site listed. Unfortunately, the site does not allow you to make any changes, and your stuck with promoting 3 products already given. But I figured this will just start me off, and I'll build a site on my own, later.
