My Online Business Adventure

If you are considering starting a home based affiliate marketing business, you could do a lot worse than starting with Plug-in Profit.  Earning money at home is not as easy as it sounds if you are new to the business, but this program gives the newbie a real “leg-up” on the affiliate marketing ladder and there is so much support available that you cannot lose as long as you put in the work.

To help you make the most of what Plug-in Profit (or PIPS) has to offer, I have made my own list of steps you need to take when getting started with PIPS.  This is the advice I give to all my PIPS affiliates:

1.  Set a budget.   PIPS is free, but you do need to pay for the hosting of your website, which is $25 per month plus set-up fee.  It is important that you decide before you start how much more you can afford.  It may be that you can only afford the hosting fee for the moment - and that’s fine.  You just need to be clear how much you will spend per month and then you will not be tempted to spend money you cannot afford.

2.  Read the 30-Day Training.   When you join PIPS, you also join up to six other programs which are promoted under the umbrella of your PIPS website.  This means you will be receiving a lot of helpful emails from each program, which can lead to information overload!  For the moment, all you need to focus on is the excellent step-by-step training you get from Stone Evans.  It’s best to read it through once before taking action.

3.  Choose Your Strategies.  You DO NOT have to do all the things Stone suggests in his 30 day training.  If you did, you would probably go over your budget and spread yourself too thin.  Many people pick just a few ways of marketing and do very well.  In fact, the free ways of marketing that are explained in the training are probably the most effective.

4.  Join the Forum.  One of the best factors of PIPS is your free membership to the PIPS members’ section of the Warrior Forum.  I believe that being part of a forum is one of the most important parts of affiliate marketing.  Here you will get support, advice and encouragement from people who are already successful, as well as the comaraderie of meeting other newbies like yourself who are just getting started.  It is very wise to come to the forum for advice before you spend any money on anything.

5.  Join the PipsPowerGroup.  If you do have any spare money in your budget, I recommend that you use it to join this members’ group.  It is run by six PIPS experts who are all earning a very good income from PIPS, and they will give you honest, personalised advice on how to get your business going.  This program also has its own step-by-step program which starts where Stone’s training finishes.

6.  Stay in touch with your sponsor and help your own affiliates.   The person you sign-up under (that’ll be me if you sign up here today) is there to help you succeed as much as possible.  This business is based on helping others to succeed and this works both ways.  Allow your sponsor to help you, and in turn use what you have learned to teach your own affiliates.  When they succeed, you do too.

If you join Plug-in Profit, and follow these six steps, you will be well on your way to building a successful affiliate marketing business, and within a year you will be earning money at home which will become a full time income and grow each year to provide you with the financial freedom you deserve.
