Make Money Online - How to Duplicate Yourself in Your Affiliate Marketing Efforts
By Robert Deveau
You are probably working at a normal job right now. Have you ever given any thought to what you are doing? I want you to know, before I continue, that if you are working a regular job, I'm not suggesting that you are doing anything wrong, everyone needs to earn a living. However, I do want to draw a simple comparison.
Lets say you work for a company that employs 10 people, a nice round number for our comparison. Your employer is duplicating his efforts. If you build fences, for example, the owner of the company is probably able to build fences by himself. But how long would it take to put of a single fence, and how many fences could he put up in a week?
By hiring a team of ten people, he can build ten times the number of fences. Sure he is paying more in labor costs, but he would easily make up the difference in volume. The owner does not even need to be on the job site. He or she could easily be out visiting more potential customers while you are building his fences.
What I am trying to say is simply this: Do what you do best, and outsource the rest. In Internet Marketing terms, what I am saying is that the only skill you need to have is to organize the people who have the skills that you need. For most of us, we get good at the marketing and traffic aspect, then we outsource the link- building, writing, site building, and sometimes even the article submission.
Instead of trying to do everything yourself, you can cut your efforts by a large percentage and still see the same income by outsourcing some of your work.

"Make money online." These words have the mysterious power to unleash your dreams and hopes! Making money online is a fascinating idea very similar in spirit to the Gold Rush 150 years ago. Both share the dream of changing your life by becoming rich quickly. Instant wealth is here for the taking! All you need to succeed is an entrepreneurial approach and the courage to think out of the box.
This idea is fascinating because it carries a wind of freedom. It opens new opportunities for people like you and me. Its essential message is: "You don't need to be born rich to be rich! You too have a chance to make big money, or at least to achieve financial autonomy and be your own boss". The beauty of the Internet is its democratic spirit that offers a renewal of chances for all. On the Web, success isn't only the lot of an elite blessed by birth but an opportunity for "ordinary people" to achieving extraordinary results in their life and with very limited financial resources.
I caught the Internet bug several years ago. I was almost hypnotized by the idea of making an income online and changing my lifestyle so that I can do what I want, when I want, and where I want without having to worry about money. During that time, I spent hours, weeks and months scrutinizing web opportunities and trying to answer this question: How is it possible to make money online?
I was frustrated with not knowing how to answer this question for the longest time. The Internet was like a maze and I was erring in its endless corridors without finding the exit. Today I know that the challenge for anyone trying to make money online is figuring out what opportunity can make a difference for him. It's a tough one! How not to be confused with so many opportunities claiming to hold the keys to online success and promising amazing shortcuts to wealth?! Which ones to believe? Is it really so easy? Are you really the only one who is left out when everyone else is enjoying the online money making party?
To help you take a jump-start, I present here a model which you can use to map out opportunities you encounter on the Web and to screen them before you give them a chance.
First let me ask you a few questions. Do you think it is easy to make lots of money on the Internet? Do you believe you can easily earn several thousand dollars a week with a secret formula developed by an Internet guru who reveals the most guarded secret in the world to you
Consider these ads:
Cool, isn't it? It seems you too can make a blast and it doesn't require any real effort on your part... What are you waiting for? You should already be rushing to your Internet gold mine!
Such offers are seductive because their melody plays on the strings of laziness (we are all lazy to some extent) and wishful thinking (what if these promises are true?).
If you are inclined to believe such statements, you may learn the hard way that "all that glitters isn't gold!"
Sorry to rain on your parade but the first thing you need to know if you really want to make money online is that you will need to roll up your sleeves! I know it's disappointing. I would also prefer to make millions in my sleep but it doesn't work that way. Making money online requires some time and effort, even for the easiest and best opportunity.
To succeed you need an attitude involving curiosity, courage, and the readiness to learn and work. The first step in this journey is to put aside "get rich quick" dreams and to skip programs that come with such a claim. To spot the real opportunities, free yourself of such illusions, use your common sense and develop a proactive approach involving knowledge acquisition, skill development, and work.
Step 1 is cleaning the ground you walk on and getting rid of seductive promises that will reveal themselves as deceptive scams.
Step 2 is focusing on real opportunities that can fit your goals.
