Businessman became A simple guarder to be an affiliate$

[yosef]

It's not easy to be 32 years old and ask yourself is the life that I live it's the life that I dreamed when I was 18 years old, I have done a lot to be who I am, I have good business, but I understood that what I am doing now is not good for me and not for my family.

I am a photographer on weddings, when I was younger it was great business, it makes me good money and I have a lot of pleasure ... meet a lot new people and see them with big smiles, but after I meet my wife I realized that this life is not for me when she comes home I go work and its start to make me think what will happen when we have children.

Tree month ago I had done decision I have to change my life! I knew that with my business I can live, but not fulfill my dreams.

I am continued with photography, but I know that I need more money for starting with affiliate marketing, then I found morning work as a guarder in school, this is not a proud work, but there I can open a computer and do my affiliate stuff.

I believe that for getting your goals you have to get decisions and if it's right to get a little back on your status for getting forward in the future then do it!

Welcome to AffiliateFix @yosef ! It's great to have you join us.

As entrepreneurs, we make changes in our lives frequently. Sometimes that includes a change in professional direction. The most important thing for you to understand first is to remember this is a business and it needs to be treated as such from the beginning. Structure your learning curve and understand that part of your learning curve is taking action. Half of what you will learn will come from taking action.

Myself, and any seasoned marketer, will tell you to use this forum as a mentor because it is full of members at every level of experience which makes for many balanced perspectives for a Newbie to learn from. Take the time to read through the forums here and see for yourself that the Newbies achieving success have actually dedicated themselves to success in this industry and reaping the rewards by following the advice of fellow AffiliateFix members, being dedicated to success, putting the time in, and making the necessary investments. You cannot shortcut the learning curve. It goes slower for some and it goes faster for others. Everyone has their own intellectual absorption rates, skill development pace, commitment level, and budgets.

You are a FIX'er now and that means you have the world at your feet with IM. Here are a few suggestions:

Read and learn through extensive reading in this community. Select one vertical. one tracker, and one traffic source. Learn from your fellow members here to master each one of them (a couple of months). Then you can expand and replicate your successes.

As a Newbie, you need to read, study, invest, and implement. Perseverance, dedication, and taking action are the cornerstones of the success you will obtain.

Read
Read through the various areas of the forum to learn about the types of marketing available for your new business. Make a list of all the types of marketing and take some notes along the way. Then determine which area of marketing with which you will start your journey.

Do this to select an area of marketing to start, as well, do this to select a tracker, a traffic source, and to select a vertical.

Then read up on the affiliate networks and select two to begin with that will serve your needs and the types of offers you would like to promote. Put your application in and they will call you for an interview. Be professional and be prepared to answer some questions about how you will promote offers, do you have a website, are you a Newbie, etc. Please note, if you join the Dojo, we have a thread there that can offer assistance in getting accepted to some of the networks.

Study
Now that you have selected a basis to begin, read all of the threads in this forum that relate to your initial selections so that you have a rudimentary understanding of their features and benefits.

Invest
You will require some investment. A VPS server, domains, traffic, landing pages, etc. You will need a budget for daily, weekly, and monthly expenses. This will change over time and you will need to update it often so that you know exactly what your costs and earnings are.

Implement
This is where it all starts to earn. You must now begin to implement what you have established as your foundation for your business.

Here is some advice and guidance that will help you establish your initial goals:

Make sure you complete the following first.

Every business needs:

1. a plan
2. a schedule for research, learning, and execution
3. a budget.

Remember to read through our WIKI and get to know the basics as well as some of the buzz words in the industry.

I also recommend reading the following thread:

As a Newbie, What Stops You From Getting Started

Here is a set of immediate goals:

1. Get a VPS
2. Select a vertical
3. Select a tracker
4. Select a couple of networks and get your approval
5. Select a traffic source
6. Create a schedule for researching, learning (training), and working. This is a business, treat it as such!
7. Create a budget for every expense (daily, weekly, monthly)
8. Be very active in this forum by researching, asking questions, helping others when you are able.

As well, I highly recommend you join the DOJO as it is full of great tools and contributions for successful marketers. Click the banner below to learn more.



Remember This! : Nothing has to be perfect before you start. Read & study, but invest and implement at the same time. You cannot learn all of it from reading and studying. A great deal of your learning comes from implementing!

Good Luck!

Thank you for all advice's.
as you have wrote its very important to focus, but i ask myself if the focusing is on one vertical like sweepstakes on mobile is good enough to earn 1000$/day?

The purpose of sticking to one vertical, one tracker, and one traffic source in the beginning is to develop your skills in a fashion to enable you to be productive in additional verticals, trackers, and traffic sources. You cannot learn to master them all at the same time, but you can learn to master one of each in a couple of months. This is what prepares you to make big money.
