How To Start And Build An Online Business From Scratch For Beginners

 

LIKESINTERNETMARKETING.COM"HOW TO START AND BUILD AN ONLINE BUSINESS FROM SCRATCH FOR BEGINNERS"

After a difficult period of time recently in the online business education industry, Dean Holland gives his thoughts on how to start and build an online business from scratch. He also points to a specific resource designed to free up affiliate marketing beginners to have fun and enjoy building their online businesses…

“Good morning my friend, I hope you’re well. It’s Dean here of course. This has been a rather serious time hasn’t it. So let’s lighten the mood here, in today’s episode of The Drive.

Companies being closed, FTC, widespread panic in the industry, everybody losing out. And yeah, I’m not gonna try and sugar coat that there’s obviously major shockwaves going through the industry. With many people potentially losing out on a lot right now. It’s a very scary situation for a lot of people.

But… I don’t want to focus on that right now. You see, we’ve focused on that quite a bit recently, and I know there’s a lot of people facing scary times. However I want to just switch gears for a moment.

I want to talk about the other side of what people don’t tend to focus on enough. Because… And I know what it’s like, right? I’ve been there, when you’re trying desperately to start and build an online business and things aren’t going your way.

Building A Business Should Be Fun, And The Work You Have To Actually Do Is Simple

Stuff’s going wrong! You’re spending money, losing money, trying things, failing at things. Y’know, buying and trying everything that comes across your path and into your email inbox.

And it’s frustrating, and overwhelming, and it’s tiring. Everyone around you is doubting you, and all you want to do is silence them. But you can’t, because nothing’s going your way, right?

It Should Be Fun To Start And Build An Online Business

But I want to just switch to the other side. I want to remind you that building a business should be fun. It’s simple – the work you have to actually do. Don’t mistake me though – it’s not easy, right?

It’s simple in terms of the things that you have to learn and do to start and build an online business. Meaning it’s not like becoming a brain surgeon is it? Let’s be honest… It’s not like you’ve got to spend the next 5-10 years stuck in college or university getting degrees with a doctor watching over your shoulder.

It’s not like that, right? We’re literally at home at our computer or wherever we choose to work from, and we’re trying to learn and implement in a few key areas to be successful, to get results.

I Was A “Busy Fool” And It Was Tiring, Because I Just Didn’t Have A Plan

I think where the frustration starts to come in is that people don’t know what those areas are. If I look back on myself, I can remember it felt like there was a million and one things to do. I was a “busy fool”. I was working and grinding at the computer hours and hours each day, not sleeping, juggling work life, computer life, and family life.

And it was tiring, because I just didn’t have a plan. I didn’t have direction, didn’t have help, didn’t have support. And it’s tough, tough, tough, in that sense.

But I’ll tell you that it’s worth it. It is hard work, but it is worth it.

Are You Looking For Someone To Tell You That It Can Be Push-Button Easy?

And there’s that good old transparency that the FTC are looking for… You’re looking for someone to tell you that it can be push-button easy. And this is one of the problems in this darn industry. People don’t want to hear that it’s hard work to start and build an online business.

Everybody blames the product creators, but let’s for a moment think about what people are looking for. People don’t want to hear that it’s hard work to build an online business from scratch. That it takes time, that it takes energy, that it takes hard work and effort, and it takes money.

Here At Internet Profits We Attract Only Those Willing To Work For Results

No one wants to hear that, right? So for a product creator selling their own products, it gets tougher and tougher. Because people don’t want to hear that. That’s not what they want to buy. I mean, who wants to buy something that’s hard work?

If I said to you, “I’ve got something you can buy. It can absolutely change your life. It’s gonna be $3,000. I’ll do a lot of the work for you. But then you’re gonna have to put in some hard work, and you’re gonna have to spend 6/12/18 months working hard and focusing. Not doing anything else, not buying other products, not being pulled in different directions. Only doing this, and working hard to follow my directions.”

I know a few might buy, but many are going to be put off. But that’s one of the changes that we made here at Internet Profits over the last 12 months… Is actually to only attract those that are willing and wanting to work for the results.

How To Make It Fun

But let me come back to my original point of today’s Drive… Building a business can and should be fun. Should be enjoyable. Because you’re learning new skills, you’re developing yourself, you’re growing.

The Way To Make It Fun Is To Invest In Yourself And Get Help As Early As Possible

It’s a process. And a process that, if you are willing to put in that work, can absolutely pay off and change your life. And that is the truth.

The way to make it more fun is to actually invest in yourself, and get the help as early on as you can. Don’t let it reach the stage of becoming not fun. Don’t let it get to the stage where you despise sitting at the computer because you’re so overwhelmed and frustrated every day.

“So what’s a good starting point then, Dean? Tell me!”

Well if you are looking to follow the path that I did, which is to… First learn a few key skills, where you don’t have to spend years creating your own products, or learning to get to that stage and becoming an expert. Then you should start off looking at affiliate marketing, right?

Traditional Affiliate Marketing Is Dead

Now affiliate marketing has completely changed over the years. It’s not the same as it used to be. Traditional affiliate marketing no longer works. And I touched on this a bit the other day.

But without going into it, I’ve got a free, short read. It’s like 20 pages. I call it a playbook for affiliate marketers. It shows you exactly what to do. Just cover shipping and handling. Grab a copy of that now…

The Playbook’s Goal Is To Expose The Truth, Then Focus You On Learning The Key Skills

Anyway that’s not what this is about. But do grab that playbook afterwards here. Once you do that, then you can focus on learning those key skills to start and build an online business.

Now to be transparent with you, my end goal is not for you to just get that book and it changes your life. The goal of that book is that it opens your eyes and shows you the truth. Then my ultimate next step for you is that I want you to become one of our Certified Partners, okay?

Now there’s a higher investment here, when you become one of our Certified Partners. Then I’m going to provide you with done-for-you products, funnels, websites, and everything that you need.

And then you’re going to be able to apply the key skills that I teach you, to do advertising and traffic generation. To build yourself an audience, an email list, and all that kind of good stuff.

Start And Build An Online Business From Scratch For A Full Time Sustainable Income

Now my goal there – not saying this is the result – but my goal for you, okay… Again, keep it FTC happy, right? I’m not promising or guaranteeing anything at all. But my personal goal for people is that you start and build an online business that can provide you with a full time, sustainable income.

To Build Your Online Business Fast, What Must You Focus On?

 

LIKESINTERNETMARKETING.COM"TO BUILD YOUR ONLINE BUSINESS FAST, WHAT MUST YOU FOCUS ON?"

It’s easy to get busy with so many different things that need doing, when you’re trying to build your online business fast. So how do you know what’s best to focus on right now in your online business? Here’s Dean’s with a simple piece of advice, and some examples from his latest workshop…

“Hey, hey, hey! What is happening, my friend? Dean here of course, on the way to Internet Profits headquarters on this glorious morning.

If you’ve been following along recently, you’ll know that I’ve been speaking about the fact that I’ve been getting started with, and running a new coaching program. Just working with a small number of people.

And we kicked off the program where everyone had 30 minutes of one-on-one time. In a group setting, they had one-on-one time with me. Telling me everything about where they’re at right now and so on.

This Is How You Experience The Biggest, Most Significant Progress And Breakthroughs

This was only made available to our Certified Partners by the way.

How To Build Your Online Business Fast

I want to share the approach that I took with those people this week. Because, I think that if you do this in your business, this is how you experience the biggest, most significant progress and breakthroughs, week after week, which will build your online business fast.

One of the biggest battles that we face, as we start and grow our online business, is the feeling – or sometimes the actual reality – of having a lot of things to do.

But for a lot of people, it is more a ‘feeling’ than a reality… There are a million and one things to do, right? Because you can become what a mentor of mine used to call, “A busy fool“.

Meaning that it feels like there are a gazillion things to work on. But very few of those things are actually going to make an impact on your income.

What’s The One Thing You Could Do Today Which Would Have The Biggest Impact On Income?

And so, here’s what I said to these people this week… We spent probably about 20 to 30 minutes going over where they’re at right now…

What they’re currently doing, what they’re stuck with, what their strategy is, what ideas they have, what their method of content creation is (if they’re going to pursue a method of content creation). What their desired platform for paid advertising is… As pretty much most, if not all of these people are doing paid traffic, even if starting with a small budget.

So after we went through those things, I spent 10 minutes… And pretty much the question I asked of myself, in order to respond to this and give them this information, was…

What Are The Key One Or Two Things…

“What is the number one…” Or “What are the key one or two things that they could do over the next seven days, which would lead to the biggest progress, breakthrough, impact and income in their business?” (Not, “What’s everything that needs doing?”)

There’s A High Probability You May Be Feeling There Are A Million And One Things To Do

And I was able to then say, “Right, here are your action steps for this week that you need to do.” And I didn’t give anyone a million things, or ten things, or even five things to do.

They all had one or two main things that they needed to get done this week.

Whether that was… Creating a case study of their results. Completing and getting their website live. Writing a new ad for Facebook. Recording a new video for Facebook. Completing their email sequence to plug into their autoresponder.

Whatever those one or two things were – that’s what I said to get done. And that’s what I want to say to you, right? Because there’s a high probability that you may be experiencing the same feeling – that there are a million and one things to do.

And believe me, it is easy to find things to do, right? You’ve probably experienced that for yourself. It is always easy to make yourself busy. Always, right? For any of us.

By Rolling Out This Webinar Project, It’s Literally Going Generate Thousands Of Dollars A Day

But… What are the key one or two things that you could do over the next seven days, that – if you demolished those – would make the biggest impact to the income of your business?

Eighty Percent Of My Efforts Today Will Be On This

Me, for example. I’ve a lot of things I could do, I’ve a lot of things that need doing. But for me right now, the main thing… Eighty percent of my efforts today, and over the next few days, is going into…

Affiliate Marketing Beginners Quick Start Challenge

 

LIKESINTERNETMARKETING.COM"AFFILIATE MARKETING BEGINNERS QUICK START CHALLENGE"

Dean’s 2020 Black Friday Offer for affiliate marketing beginners finally opens it’s doors…

This brand new LIVE “Quick Start Challenge” kicks off on December 8th 2020. And is the perfect start-up action plan for affiliate marketing beginners. Or those who have tried and failed in the past with affiliate marketing.

Here’s Dean…

QUICK QUESTION… If you could get mentored by me and my team live online so you can get everything you need in place to win at affiliate marketing in just 7 days… For less than $100… Would you be interested?…

“Hey, this is Dean Holland here. And if you’re reading this, let me just warn you ahead of time – I’ve kind of messed up, in a way. Let me explain…

As you can see, this is not one of those slick, professional, fully detailed, beautifully illustrated sales pages.

And the reality is, I had the full intention of going all out to build an incredible offer, promotion, sales page, video… All that kind of stuff, to try and get as many people as possible to buy this offer.

Black Friday Plan For The Affiliate Marketing Beginners Quick Start Challenge

Truth is… I got incredibly busy. We’ve got so much stuff going on, that I just ran out of time. And now here we are, after Black Friday, and I thought to myself, “Well, I’ve missed the boat. I can’t make a special offer now.”

But somebody just mentioned, “Look, why don’t you just tell people what you’ve got? Forget about all the fancy pants stuff, and just tell them this incredible offer you’ve got. And I’m sure some people will absolutely not want to miss out.”

So here we go…

Starting On December 8th 2020, We’re Hosting Our Brand New Quick Start Challenge…

This is a live 7 day challenge for anyone who wants to start and launch their affiliate marketing business in just 7 days.

Now I’ve got a few notes here – so let me just grab these – and I’m going to tell you exactly what we’ve got planned.

Like I say, this is a 7 day challenge for affiliate marketing beginners, where I’m going to basically take you from the ground up. I’m gonna explain everything you need to know. And then help you over the 7 days to get everything in place that you need to do. So that, within 7 days, you’ll have everything set up and ready to go.

Have Your Entire Affiliate Marketing Business Operational Up And Running Before Christmas

Then basically you’ll be in a position, before Christmas even arrives this year, to have your entire affiliate marketing business operational, up and running, so you can drive traffic and start earning commissions.

So to do that, we’ve got a 7 day challenge to take you through. This is a LIVE 7 day coaching. So every day, for 7 days starting December 8th 2020 (excluding the weekend) we will be inviting you to to join us on a live coaching call. This will be hosted by myself, Dean Holland, and I have a couple of other people on my coaching team joining us to help you in specific areas.

So, day one – we’re calling this…

Day 1: Laying The Foundations For Success

This is where we’re going to explain everything you need to know. We’re going to lay those foundations.

Why is it that most affiliate marketers are stuck and struggling today? Why is it that most people who are trying, not only don’t build a full time income, don’t get any commissions or sales at all?

I’m going to explain why traditional affiliate marketing is dead, and what the best new way is to do things. And we’re going to basically make sure that you are ready to hit the ground running, before day 2 which moves into…

Day 2: Deploying Your List Building Engine

Now I don’t think there are any secrets around what that topic might be. It’s all about email list building.

But we’re going to do things in a very specific way. You see, having now been building email lists since 2008, I’ve learned a few things and I’ve seen many things shift.

And today, we use a way that I call, like, this ‘triple-tiered’ approach. It’s essentially a way of getting paid to build your list, and it works incredibly well.

I’m Going To Give You The ‘Done-For-You’ List Building Engine

Not only are we going to explain it to you, we’re also going to hand you the templates. So I’m going to give you the ‘done-for-you’ list building engine, and then we’re going to walk you through some simple steps to connect the dots, plug it in, and get it up and running.

So even if you’re not technical at all – I’m not going to be expecting you to do anything mega-complex. It’s going to be very, very simple – very step by step. And by the end of day 2, you’ll be fully equipped and ready to build your list.

Oh, and by the way, before I forget… I’m also going to give you a lead magnet, specially made by me, for you to be able to give away for free to build your list. So you really will have everything you need in place by the end of day 2.

So having now moved into day 3, we call this…

Day 3: The Automated Sales System

Now there are very specific things that you can put in place, as you build your list, that basically means that every individual who joins your list automatically hears from you, automatically gets emails from you…

And when we put things in place in the right way (which I’ll guide you through), it enables you to be making an income – generating commissions – without actually doing anything further yourself.

Automated Process Generates You An Income 24 Hours A Day, Even When You’re Sleeping

So this is – and I hate to sound kind of like a cliché, or use any hype terminology – but ultimately, this really does allow you to generate an income 24 hours a day, even when you’re sleeping. Because it will be fully set up to be an automated process.

So by the end of day 3, you’ll have laid all the foundations for success. You will have your list building engine in place. And you’ll now have your automated sales system in place.

Day 4, we’re going to talk about multiple streams of income.

Day 4: Multiple Streams Of Income

One of the great benefits for affiliate marketing beginners is that you can create, and add in, and build in, multiple income streams from different promotions, different offers, different companies, into your business.

I myself, for example, have earned tens of thousands of dollars in commissions from Clickfunnels. I recommend another tool that earns me over $3,000 a month, that I just started promoting three months ago – and it’s already at $3K a month. I’ve received a cheque for between $100 and $200 every single month since 2009 from another promotion.

One Simple Free Strategy To Start Getting Traffic Without Spending Any Money On Paid Ads

All these added together can create a fantastic income and business for you. So I’m going to help you do the same.

Day 5, it’s time to turn on the ‘traffic tap’.

Day 5: Turn On The Traffic

So I’m actually bringing in one of my very own Certified Partners and student on our coaching team for this session.

Because 11 months ago, he actually lost his day job. He wasn’t making any income online. Didn’t really know what he was doing, Made a ton of mistakes like many people starting out.

And today, he no longer has a day job – he didn’t have to go back to a day job – and he earns between three and four thousand dollars a month.

He’s done it all using one single, simple free traffic generation strategy. And I’ve persuaded James to come and actually share this with you. He’s gonna actually teach you this live, so you can start getting traffic without spending any money on paid ads…

What Does It Take To Be An Entrepreneur Online Working From Home?

What Does It Take To Be An Entrepreneur Online Working From Home?

Have you ever thought about becoming an online entrepreneur and starting your own business in order to make money working from home on the internet? This raises the question, what does it take to be an entrepreneur online working from home? Here are some important tips and advice to help you succeed online where almost everyone else fails…

“Hey, hey! What is happening, my friend? How are you doing? Dean here of course, on the way to Internet Profits headquarters on this fine, glorious morning. Today is looking bright and beautiful, I gotta say – both outside and in.

Because today there’s a ton of stuff happening. Let me give you the quick lowdown before I give you a bit of a message… Something I want to share – something I’ve been thinking about, and seeing a lot of stuff about online… What does it take to be an entrepreneur online working from home?

I Love Figuring Out Where People Are Stuck, Then Providing The Absolute Best Solution

But before we get to that…

I Just Want To Share With You What’s Happening Today

One of the things I love to do is keep you up-to-date on what’s going on behind the scenes at Internet Profits.

Firstly, we are opening the doors today to a very exclusive (20 places only) coaching program for 20 people. This is only available for our Certified Partners…

So that’s very exciting, because I love figuring out where people are stuck in their businesses. And then providing the absolute best solution to them, to fix their problems and allow them to continue on towards their goals and whatever they’re looking for in life. Y’know, their vision of success. We’re really doing that again, and I’m excited to open the doors to that opportunity.

Constantly Look For Areas Where You Can Perform Better For Your Potential Customers

Another big thing that’s happening, right now: It’s about 8:20 in the morning, and the team leader of the coaching division here at Internet Profits is on his way. He’s staying with us for a couple of days, because we’re gonna be building out a new step-by-step blueprint.

Again, one of the things that I always do – and I encourage you to do this in your business as well – is NEVER SIT STILL. Constantly be looking for the areas in which you can perform better for your potential customers.

I’m not talking about the inner perfectionist. As in, everything has to be perfect before you launch anything. I’m talking about always looking at;

How Can We Support Our Customers And Clients Even Better Than We Already Do?

And I believe that we’ve identified a key area in what we do, where we can massively improve.

So our head coach is coming down for a couple of days. Today we’re going to be planning out, and then tomorrow we’re gonna be shooting a ton of video content. I’ll share more about this going forwards.

The Opportunity For People To Apply To Become A Certified Partner With Our Company

But essentially, we’re shooting an entire (we don’t know exactly yet until we plan it) twenty to thirty day, daily steps to getting more traffic, building your audience, and increasing sales – daily, from scratch… This will be for anybody that doesn’t have anything in place yet.

So we’ve got that going on. That’s obviously a big, big deal. He’s on his way now.

We’ve also got a webinar later on tonight. It’s at 6:00 p.m. Eastern. Obviously we’re in the UK, so that means 11:00 p.m. for us. We will be delivering some great training and content, and then making the opportunity available for people to apply to become a Certified Partner with our company.

And yeah, that’s one of the main big deals of today. I’ve got a call with somebody about Facebook Ads. I also have a webinar at 2:00 p.m. today. I have two podcast episodes that we’re hosting. One is with Brandon Carter, otherwise known as The Keto King. You may have seen his ads all over the place.

I Have The Same Number Of Hours In The Day As Everybody Else

So today is freaking busy, right? And here’s the thing… Here’s what I want to say…

A lot of times people hear me reel off stuff like that. Y’know, I have the same number of hours in the day as everybody else. And often people say, “How on earth do you get so much done?”

What Does It Take To Be An Entrepreneur Online?

I want you to know that building and running a business it isn’t easy. Most people, particularly our industry – the whole ‘make money online’ ‘internet marketing’ ‘home-based business’ industry…

They’re peddling BS and crap online, forcing down people’s throats that ‘you can get rich overnight’. ‘You can do all this kind of stuff, and it’s push-button simple.’

It’s Everything I Stand Against – Makes Me Throw Up In My Own Mouth – It’s Sickening!

Y’know… ‘Click this, click that, and BOOM! Watch the commissions appear.’ And it’s nonsense! Absolute nonsense! It’s everything I stand against. It almost makes me throw up in my own mouth – it’s sickening!

And I tell you why I feel so passionate about that. Because for the first four and a half years of my trying to make money online, back between 2004 to 2008, I believed a lot of that garbage. And it led me on this spiral that sank me financially, emotionally, physically. It made me ill, nearly crippled me with debts.

And yeah, I made a lot of bad decisions. Let’s not force the blame elsewhere. I made some stupid, naive mistakes. But there was also a lot of garbage that led me down sickening paths of of lies, deceit, cheap scams, and untruths. So…

Everything I Do Stands Against That Garbage!

And I want you to know that you can absolutely build a business if that’s what you desire… One that can afford you to be your own boss. To supplement your pension, to support your family better, to have some more comforts – stability, security, freedom.

We’ve Helped Almost 800 People As Certified Partners To Get Results And Make Money…

You truly can have it. It’s what we do. We help people go from employment to entrepreneur. We’re leading a movement of everyday entrepreneurs. Just ordinary people that want more. Because it’s okay to want more, and you can have it…

But it’s not gonna come without sacrifice, work, commitment – putting in time, energy, money, resources. Y’know, it’s gonna take sacrifice.

But if you’re willing to do that, and you have the right help – the right people leading you, the right support, the right system, and the right strategy…

You Can Absolutely Live A Life Beyond Your Wildest Dreams

I’m living, breathing proof of that. And the fact we’ve also, to date, helped almost 800 people in the last few years with what we do, as Certified Partners – to go from struggling, to results and making money. Knowing what it take to be an entrepreneur online working from home…
