5. Dr. Robert C. Worstell
The 2 Reasons Affiliate and Bum Marketers Fail are
simple:
1. Lack of focus
2. No Long-term orientation
Taking the first, where affiliate marketers fail is that they don't keep to one
approach. They are constantly seeking and finding very lucrative, but
narrow/shallow approaches. The products they offer are mostly of the same
ilk - get rich quick, or these 30-page ebooks for $15 which are just one-off
products.
The failure here is to keep looking for new things instead of really building
up around a central, valuable theme.
This leads us to the second point. Affiliate marketers fail - or just continue
struggling to succeed (same difference) as they don't consistently provide
incredible value in a given niche. The knuckleheads I've dealt with along
this line consistently bring me new products through my email portal, all of
which are glowingly represented as being a "new way to make money!" or
tell with lengthy lists of testimonials about how this new ebook or product
will... But the products are all over the place - hair products, diet products,
forex manuals, you name it.
What these marketers fail to do is to develop a line of products which
services a single, narrow niche completely. The worst of the lot are the
people selling marketing products to marketers. Because they are simply
feeding this addictive, attention deficit problem. Most all of these new
marketing approaches are the same, just tacked on and glossed up with new
terminology.
Real successful marketers find a problem area they have a solution for and
then sell variations and expansions of that system to those same customers
and gradually expand that narrow niche slightly wider - or pick up a related
niche and bring their old clients over to this new one.
This is having and building a "sales funnel" of a consistent line of goods.
Any accomplished sales organization does this. These are called
"department stores". And you can do the same online as in the brick and

mortars.
But the Internet also allows people to shallowly sell a wide variety of
products and not have to build any base to actually get recurring customers.
And this route ensures that you are constantly looking for new stuff to sell
and ways to sell it. And you are also always looking for new customers and
clients.
The solution:
Build a base. Means you can actually drop all these various products into a
blog or an ecommerce engine (and now you can host blogs inside
ecommerce engines - they are built on the same code, basically).
That blog or ecommerce site then has all the data a person would need
about a given product - and they could find, by category or search, what
they were actually looking for. And then would come back to find other stuff
they were needing.
The affiliate salesperson, would then keep looking for bargains and drop
them into this base. Sure, they keep building stand-alone sales pages and
mini-webs, but these then point to the ecommerce base or blog page where
that person could then contact the affiliate sales line.
Essentially, they need an online catalog of all the various items they are
selling. And when they send out emails, it's "look what I just found for you!"
"Come see my site to see what the latest is!" It's not "here's what I dug up
that you can buy now."
That's where I simply opt out of that person's mail list.
But people who do have some great content - really helpful stuff - I keep
coming back to them, their blog, their ecommerce site. Because they've done
the research so I know that what they offer is good stuff, or at least is
amusing.
Solution Steps:
1. Know what you really like to do and how you like to help people.
2. Find stuff that will help people and offer it to them in return for
something they want to give you. (Like a decent price, or an email

address that works.)
3. Set up a base so that people can find out more about you and your
products on their own.
4. Promote that base along with any product you are offering.
5. Keep building onto that base with every new product you find.
6. Streamline what you are doing and dropping old products that no
longer sell, or drive customers away.
7. Turn long-term clients into working as affiliate sales people for you.

8. Thrivelearning Guide
Find ways how to improve your life, run a
successful online business, get your freedom
back.
Thrivelearning System - A Guide
I've searched over the Internet for really workable programs for more than a
couple of decades. The main criteria was that they had to work and they had
to help people actually improve their lives. The goal is that people are enabled
to get their abundance which is already native.
People don't know how simple it is to have a peaceful, free life. They don't
know that starting an online business does have a learning curve, but when
you find the right mentor and the right partners, it can be really simple and
successful.
So these programs each individually work. But the real power is that they
integrate into a powerful system that is more effective than the single parts.
There are two approaches to this - Spiritual and Business
Spiritual: You should be able to have all the freedom, peace,
and abundance you could ever want.
Business: You can and should know how to leverage the
Internet to make your own online success.
Like many, I was caught up in the “get rich quick” “how to make money
online” schemes that are very often pushed with Internet Marketing.
And it took me a long time (over a year) to learn enough to earn my money
back out
of the scheme I bought into. (No, I had to attend “Hard Luck U” and sweat it
out with a keyboard and Google searches - it wasn’t found in the “training” I
bought.) And that company has improved considerably since that time - it
was lessons all around, the way I saw it.

9. But since then, I’ve really discovered how to thrive - by discovering and
testing the exact techniques of self-help and spiritual training which will
attract any amount of money or abundance you want. No “institute” required,
no expensive ”schooling” or “coaching” - learn at your own pace, from your
own home.
Now I am starting to regularly earn money working at home, mostly from
online affiliate sales and my own books . It’s not hard to learn, if you want to
invest your time (and a little cash here and there.) But you only get out what
you invest of your self…
Here’s the programs I found that actually work:
Spiritual
1. Find your inner peace - Use Release Technique
2. Learn how to remain calm under stress - Use Silva Life System
3. Thrive financially with your Millionaire Mindset - Learn from T. Harv
Eker
4. Simply Wake Up and Live! - Dorothea Brande's classic.
5. Get a library of proven, workable materials - Spiritual Training
Materials
Business
1. Do market research for products which can factually earn you online
income - Chris Malta's Worldwide Brands
2. Master social network marketing - Charles Heflin’s Synnd
3. Get a site builder and web host with decades of experience -Ken
Evoy's Site Build It!
4. Find the simplicities to protecting yourself legally – Dr. Frederick
Graves' Jurisdictionary
5. Get and stay scam free from here on out - Get Scam Free (book and
online course)

10. Release Technique
Release Technique is simply learning to actually
look at what is happening around you and letting
go of what you don't want. Too easy, actually.
Some people have to know more about such a
technique before they can really put it to use in
their lives. Larry Crane used it to save his life. He
was already a millionaire - even on the cover of
Time - but found he wanted to commit suicide because of his own inner
stress. He met a guy named Lester Levenson, who taught him to release the
inner programs which caused that. Larry changed his life – and has been
teaching and promoting this course ever since.
Silva Life System
Laura found herself in trouble. Her health was
failing, she couldn't keep a job, she was
desperately "in love" with someone who only took
advantage of her. Then she rediscovered for
herself the system of active meditation she had been involved with since
childhood, literally growing up around it. Once she put this to use in her own
life, she became more and more successful as she applied it. Now happily
married with several children, she has devoted her life to continuing her
father's proven program of active meditation. More people than ever have
found how easy it is to meditate through Jose and Laura Silvas' works. There
are reportedly millions internationally who are using Silva materials to gain
calm, successful lives. You can, too.

11. Millionaire Mind Intensive
The key point is that you have to re-learn all
you've learned up to this point about money.
What he starts out to begin with is to tell you,
“Don’t believe anything I say, but try these ideas
out in your own life - and trust these ideas you
are trying.”How Eker gets you to re-train your
millionaires mind isn't all that new. But he took
up the study of millionaire and rich-people psychology in earnest so solve his
own inability to make and hold onto money. While he made (and lost)
millions early in his life, it was his own studies into how people did this which
made him an international success. Now he spends his time only in helping
others to adjust their own Millionaire Mindset
Wake Up and Live
I was introduced to it by Earl Nightingale (of "Our
Changing World" fame). It was in his "Strangest
Secret" recording where he introduced her now
famous credo:
"Act as though it were impossible to fail."
And she explains how she got to that point in this book. The first section is an
autobiography of sorts, explaining the gist of her discovered philosophy of life
- and how that credo lead her straight to an amazing career after a rather
mundane existence prior. Newly republished in an easy-to-read format, this
book is an essential classic for anyone's library.

12. Spiritual Training Materials
For anyone to really make their way through life,
they have to find and follow mentors. With our
modern Internet Age, you no longer have to take
time out and travel to distant lands in order to sit
at the feet of a Master and absorb their knowledge.
Even the long-passed can reveal their secrets from
their book sand materials. I've assembled a short
list of books which have been proved time and again to hold the secrets to all
health,wealth, success, and relationships. The path is there - you have only to
walk it. Build your library today!
Web Site Builder
Site Build It! is the only product that takes the
time to prepare you to build a profitable business,
before you jump into building your site. For the
beginner, your learning curve will be shorter and
you’ll bypass any show-stopping errors. For those experienced in site-
building, SBI! deepens your level of understanding. No matter who you are,
you are guided all the way until you succeed. This approach symbolizes SBI!’s
steady-and-sure approach. It’s definitely not GRQ (Get Rich Quick) and keeps
you from getting distracted by false promises or dead-end tools and strategies
that end up costing more money. Experienced users will appreciate avoiding
time-wasters that don't help you succeed. Think of it as a simple, direct, hype-
free path that leads to success. Check it out for yourself.
Profitable Market Research
The reason Chris started WWB is just because he
knew how profitable it was to sell for others - but
ran into the same shady operators so many of us
do. He sat out building a company which did the

13. homework for you - so you only need login to their single interface where
they've already predigested the product discovery, keyword research, and
verified the drop-shippers as legit. No middlemen, no scammers. Just you,
your hard work, and your filling bank account. Not for the faint at heart - this
is only for those serious about doing the homework necessary to find salable,
profitable products to sell.
Social Network Marketing
Once you have a product and a website, you need
to promote it. Charles Heflin has been marketing
at least as long as the World Wide Web has
existed. And he formed Social Media Science just to study the social media
phenomenon. Per their website: "Social Media Science is dedicated to the
science of online social media as it applies to gaining visibility for you ronline
or offline business. We are dedicated to educating the business community
through a robust educational system as well as providing cutting edge
software tools to make marketing your business easier, more effective and
measurable. See what sets us apart." It's only here where you learn how to
really market online.
Get a Winning Lawyer -
Defend Your Company
Dr. Frederick Graves is a lawyer who has taken on
the formidable task of educating people how to
figure out what the hell is going on. But it's not all
that complicated. For any business, if you
understand the legal system, you can avoid
situations which would lead you into any unnecessary involvement in the
courts. Technically, you learn enough to use the laws to do what they are
supposed to - protect against inequality and bullying behavior. The point is
that when you do need to get a lawyer, you can also ensure that he's doing
what you're paying him for. With all else you need to follow in business, you
don't also need the excess expense which legal costs can bring.

14. FTC Disclaimer
Self-help and Spiritual Training are highly personal. You get out only what
you put into them. There are no "typical results." None of the above should be
considered as a “business opportunity”. These are personal training programs
and materials which you alone can determine if they assist your own progress
or help improve your life.
Caveat Emptor, and all that.
