Does internet marketing seem like a deep, dark mystery
to you? Are you like a starving refugee, gazing into a window,
where rich people are eating a perpetual Thanksgiving dinner?
You know that the money is out there, lying around in piles,
and some people are allowed to load their pockets each day,
while the majority can only watch and wait….and wait….
Well, I, for one, and thousands of others, have decided to
join the feast, and if the door is locked, we’ll kick it down! By
“we”, I mean the thousands of Wealthy Affiliate University
members, who together represent a formidable force of
unstoppable momentum, barging into the celebration without
an invitation!
You see, all the self-proclaimed “gurus” tell you that making
money online is “easy” as long as you buy their sure-fire
systems. The only problem with that is, 95% of the marketing
strategies you buy from strangers are either out-dated,
incomplete, or just plain garbage, and most tell you that in
order for you to make the best money online, you need this or
that tool or software that is not included in the package you just
bought, but, “hey, no problem, here’s my affiliate link to that
marvelous product”, and bam! they’ve got you again!
The biggest strategy in online marketing is the upsell, where
most marketers make more money than the original sale, and
the list, where all marketers will continue to bombard you with
offers for as long as you are on it. Don’t blame them, it’s the
way things work. Instead of getting mad, get even.
Learn to be the offerER instead of the offerEE.
I spent thousands of dollars online buying the “next big thing”
only to find that none of them ever worked for me, because,
you see, internet marketing IS NOT EASY! There is a learning
process that is the equivalent to a couple of years of college
[at least] and the “gurus” don’t want you to graduate!
When you get to the level of knowledge that they are at, you
cease being a customer and become the competition, so why
would they actually help you along the way?
My eyes were finally opened by Wealthy Affiliate University,
and now I see the big picture.
You should take the free tour and decide whether it is better
for you to be a sheep or a wolf.
Forget Selling! The Money is in CPA Marketing January 26, 2010

So you`ve tried affiliate marketing, driven thousands of hits to
someone else`s sites, built their lists for them, and just haven`t
seen the money. Well, I`m sorry to break this to you, but as long
as you promote another`s product without your own website,
that is pretty much what you can expect.
You need a squeeze page to build your own list, your own
domains, websites, and products to make money in affiliate
marketing.
It takes a massive effort to build a list, brand yourself, and
develop your own products, but to succeed as an affiliate for clickbank
products, it is absolutely neccessary. What to do?
There is a way to by-pass all that drudgery and make a really
impressive income while you are at it: CPA marketing.
CPA stands for cost-per-action, or cost-per-acquisition, meaning
you can be paid for a prospect`s taking a free trial, completing a
short survey, filling in his or her email address, or even their zip
code!
The payment ranges from $1 for a zip code to $55 or more for a
trial of a product, and you do nothing but present the offer to the
prospect, sending them to the website just as in affiliate marketing.
The only difference being, it`s just a whole lot easier to convert a
CPA offer than to sell a product.
I personally am an affiliate for the #1 health product company on
the web, and am happily making a very good income giving stuff
away.
Free trials of products that will make the recipient more healthy
or physically attractive are no challenge at all to convert.
Just tell them you are going to advertise via search marketing,
meaning pay-per-click, and they will welcome you into the fold.
