Internet Marketing And Life With Brent Worley

I was driving in my car the other day when I received a lesson in building a successful home business from the group Nickelback. In specific, the lyrics to the song “If Today Were Your Last Day” struck me as something that everyone who desires to be successful in a home business should learn.

Now, obviously Nickelback is not in the home based business industry nor do they teach people how to build a successful MLM or network marketing company. “If Today Were Your Last Day” mentions several incredible teaching that people who strive to build a successful home business in network marketing should grasp.

1. Each Day Is A Gift And Not A Given Right

No one is guaranteed tomorrow. If something were to happen to you, do you feel you have built your business large enough to leave a legacy income, or at least enough to take care of your loved ones? What is getting in your way?

Instead of focusing on what you can do tomorrow, do what you can today. And repeat this everyday.

2. Take the Path Less Traveled

My mentor had a motivational poster in his office that had this saying, and I paraphrase: To get what you have never had, you must learn to do what you have never done.

Not many people like to go through the struggles of building a successful home business. It is not an easy task. Most people give up when things get tough. But if you want more out of life and want to see your business reach your dreams, you must be willing to sacrifice and do more. Get out of your comfort zone, or at least expand what your comfort zone is.

3. Say Goodbye To Yesterday

So this is your first company, you are two or three months in and have not made a dime. Don’t let your lack of success determine what you do today.

Even if this is your second, third, or even tenth home business company, do not let past failures determine what you do today and how you will build your success today. Many people who have built successful home businesses failed many times before they became successful. Do not give up and keep striving for success.

4. What’s Worth The Price Is Always Worth The Fight

Think about the reason why you started your home business. Was it to spend more time with family? To take more trips? To have a better nest egg? Quit your job?

Whatever the reason you started your home business, network marketing or MLM business, remember that the struggles are just a means to the end. As one mentor of mine said, you have to love the process. Keep your eye on the prize and never give up. Realize that the struggles you endure now will pay off in the future.

5. Let Nothing Stand In Your Way ‘Cause The Hands Of Time Are Never On Your Side

This is my personal favorite in the song. All too often we encounter rejection. Business is slow, we finally talk to someone interested in our product or business, and they reject us for whatever reason.

Instead of letting that rejection keep you down, press on! You never get a chance to do “right now” over again, so always take advantage of every moment you have. Work hard to build your business and let nothing keep you from your goals.

I’m back from a brief hiatus from posting….and back to Internet marketing!

For those that don’t know, my wife had our 3rd beautiful baby girl.

So during the last few weeks as we have been preparing for the new arrival, I’ve been looking at what I want to accomplish in the next 90 days.  I’ve been thinking of which Internet marketing methods I’m going to focus on, what niche’s I’m going to target, and other products I’m looking to offer.

Here is what I do know will happen with my new Internet Marketing challenge:

1.  There is a new Internet marketing education product I will begin marketing soon.  This will teach you how to market your home business using a LOT of different methods that are proven.  It will not be just one small eBook – rather it will be a rather large subscription based website that will offer a LIFETIME membership for one low price.  Information will be updated, new ideas taught, and videos refreshed.

And here is the BEST part…

You can get the entire Internet Marketing system for FREE!  Details to come….

2.  Along with everything I’m going to be taking on 3-5 individuals per month to help tutor them on Internet Marketing, giving them free hosting on my servers and helping them turn a home business profit through Internet marketing.  I may take more, but 3-5 will definitely happen.

3.  Finally, my goal is to help at least 10 people start with my home business and make it to the first two management levels.  In my business, that means you can make a good monthly income and a decent residual income without tons of hoops or hurdles to clear.

I’ll be posting more about my Internet marketing…as well as begin a second round of P90X that I will be doing in tandem.  =)

He did it!  Kris Allen, from a town of population around 50k and a state that has less people than the city of Los Angeles, has made it into American Idol finale.

Kris is an amazing talent, both vocally and musically.  He had some rough spots in the season, in particular judges berating him, but his imaginative arrangements of songs, smooth voice, and humbleness propelled him into a showdown with Adam Lambert, a contestant that may just have the best middle-range vocals of anyone I’ve heard.

In this week, Kris took a song that has been covered twice, once by The Fray and once by Kanye West and made it “better than the original” according to Randy Jackson.

And I love the song “Apologize.”  I remember it best from the Jermain Taylor/Kelly Pavlik rematch in February of 2008 (JT, another Arkansan, lost by decision).  Tough song choice but performed well.

I’ll post some YouTubes of other Kris Allen songs over the next week.  For now, enjoy the song that most likely put him in the finale, “Heartless.”

So my first 90 day challenge went well.  I did “fail” in the aspect that I did have some days where I simply could not market as much as I wanted, but I did find some new marketing niche’s and outlets that has brought a lot of traffic (in particular my P90X blog, which I have not monetized yet.

But with some new products coming up from my primary opportunity I am going to focus on a couple of niches that should be quite profitable.

I’m not starting quite yet as I’m gathering my thoughts on what all I’m going to do.

I’m going to give more emphasis to blogging, article marketing, and videos, but don’t rule out social networking sites quite yet.

And I have not written much recently, especially about Kris Allen on American Idol.  All I can say is he has done incredibly well and the entire state of Arkansas is proud of him.  He is the most overall talented individual on the show, although not the best “entertainer” (that belongs to Adam).

So good luck Kris in  the next few weeks.

Here is the reason why people fail at home businesses, marriages, new years resolutions, and so many other things:

They make a commitment, but they do not commit to that commitment.

For some reason people have adopted the mentality that it is easy to give up on something instead of realizing that the reward is so much greater if they just commit.  Its lazy, its apathetic, and it ruins people’s dreams.

Think about this:  How many times have you made a new years resolution and gave up on it within the first month?  Don’t think about the one time you did it….think about all of the times you didn’t do it.

Why did you give up?

Why did you quit?

It is always easier doing life as normal.  We are creatures of habit.  Continuing our status quo is simple and does not disturb what we are used to.

However….

If we branch out, push ourselves a bit, commit to what we said we were going to do, and do it, then what we get is much greater than what we had before.  The reward is always worth it; the end always justifies the means.  You just have to commit and take action.

No, it is not always easy squeezing in that extra workout, that extra self-development time, or that extra time to build your business.  It is not always easy working through tough times with your spouse.  It is not always easy sacrificing time with friends because you are building a business.

But if you do…

If you commit to what you made a commitment to and do it, where you’ll be is always better than where you are now.  If that does not get your fire going, then your wood is wet!  Make a decision, commit to your commitments, and just do it.  You’ll be glad you did.

I have an interesting story about an accidental Internet marketing experience I’m having.

As I noted earlier, I started a blog about my P90X workouts.

Yes, I’m using my typical Wordpress techniques and on-page SEO techniques that I use.  But I never expected to see the amount of traffic to come in with so little off-page efforts, promotion, or anything else.  Just simply blogging…

But in one week I’ve had 128 visits, most of those in the last 3 days.  86 of those are from search engines (the only other places I’ve promoted were two forums and Facebook).

Now, I’m doing nothing to monetize this blog (yet), but simply keeping it as a daily journal of what I am doing with my P90X workouts, dieting, etc.

But my point is this…

If there is a popular activity in your life that you do regularly, blog about it.  Build a readers base, build a rapport, and then introduce a way to make money off of the blog (Adsense, affiliate sales, whatever).  You do not necessarily have to do a lot with the blog, just keep updating it regularly with something you do.

Consider this a quick “personal development” note:

I’m learning that the only person who can change you is you.

Your wife cannot.  Your boss cannot.  Your family cannot.

If you want to change, you have to make a decision to change.  And when you make the decision, you have to simply commit to doing it.  Then you have to execute:  Whatever change you’ve decided on making, you have to do it.  Thinking about changing isn’t going to make the change occur.

So when I made my decision to do more Internet marketing, I did it.

What changed do you want to make?  Whatever it is, make the decision to change and do it.

While I’m not performing my 90 Day Internet Marketing challenge as good as I probably should, I am still seeing results.  What is the problem?  Simply getting busy!  Busy is good, but it does cause me not to get as much done as I want to get done.

But the entire point of this journey is to prove to myself that I can be consistent and that I can grow.

On March 16, I start a new 90 day journey that will overlap with my Internet marketing journey.  This journey, as I’ve documented on here before, is my journey through transforming myself diet, exercise, and consistency.

I’ve dedicated this year to buiding a better me.  My family deserves it, my God deserves it, and honestly, I deserve it.

My goals are to transform myself.

-  Be better in business
-  Be better physically
-  Be a better husband
-  Be a better father
-  Be a better worshiper
-  Be a better person

So I continue my journey.  I just add a new path to it starting tomorrow.   Feel free to follow my status on my P90X Blog.

When the going gets tough…

… the tough work harder!

I received some news today that an income source my family has will be going away in the next couple of weeks.  Now, at first the news is a bit stressful (after all, we have financial goals we are trying to meet).

But then it hit me:  I have nothing to worry about.  I just simply need to work harder.

I truly believe that in Internet marketing, network marketing, or any type of entrepreneurial endeavour that we take one we can either let minor setbacks destroy us or we can simply take the opportunity to make things better.  We can take the opportunity to get  completely stressed, or we can use it as motivation to work harder.

I’m simply choosing to work harder.

Not everything is going to go according to play 100% of the time.  I think we all realize that.  We cannot control everything, especially things outside of what we personally can make decision on.

But what we can control is how we choose to react and to circumstances.

If something comes up that is not perfect, make a decision to work harder.

Losing an income stream?  Work harder.

Niche becoming saturated?  Work harder.

Have someone quit your business?  Work harder.

But whatever you do, dictate how you will react to the circumstances instead of letting the circumstance dictate how you.
