You Can't Be A Quitter

Everlast Pro Style Training Gloves (Black, 14 oz.)After another day of throwing in the towel and deciding I will sell my computer and take up knitting, I am up and at the keyboard again. I feel like I'm in a boxing match, down and out, but I keep getting up and trying again. Hopefully this Internet Marketing learning will not leave me bruised and beaten.

After a while, I feel like I can't give up - I've spent way too much time and money to quit. I realize that something is getting into this old brain when I talk to non-Internet marketers about some of the things I'm doing. They are so impressed that it gives me the drive to want to continue. But when I get back in the ring with the pros, then I realize I am a small-town boxer who doesn't really know how to fight.

What I need is a good coach and I think I have found a couple of them. I need to put on blinders though and not get distracted by all the other coaches out there, each trying to get me to follow their style.

There may be a lot of rounds left in this old girl yet! Please comment and give me some inspiration to continue.

Until next time,
Carol

Why An Internet Business Is Best For Me

I'm presenting a full day workshop at the local community centre in a few days. My topic - Start an Internet Home Business For Under $100. With more than a dozen ways to make money on the Internet, this will be a brief introduction of all the possibilities that exist online. There is no way I can cover too much in depth - but I hope to inspire people to try. Who am I to be telling anyone anything? Well, in the past few years I have learned more than I realize. I created a mindmap with six main topic areas - finding a niche, what you need to get started, monetizing, places to sell, getting traffic, and other possible options such as video and audio. Mindmapping was an easy way for me to see all the different things I could talk about. The hardest part is narrowing it down to what can be consumed in one day without causing information overload. In the past, when I've presented workshops on topics like eBay, the only negative comments I've ever had are always about too muc...

Opt-in Forms

I spent today creating opt-in forms for each of my blogs. Mind you, other than this one on blogger, which is so easy to install, I have no idea what to do next. My other blogs are in Wordpress and have to be copied into the HTML code. For a non-techie like me, that is a big deal. Update: With the newer versions of Wordpress and the use of widgets with most themes, adding an opt-in form is now as easy as on a Blogger blog. I went to Aweber and created my form, copied the code that's produced and pasted it into my HTML widget. And I even sound like a techie, don't I? Until next time, Carol

Youtube Videos - Are You Using Them?

Creating more Youtube videos is on my to-do list for this spring. But I think I need to take a lesson from my granddaughter's future husband and learn to use humor much more than I do. Here is a recent video he created to give you an idea of what I mean. Don't miss the surprise ending. Until next time, Carol
