I really mean that when I say it.
You really have to have a salable item to make money online.
Unfortunately there is so much hype online about getting rich quick and making money fast with no web site, no list, blah, blah, blah, and it makes me sick.
You see, all of that is a lie.
You have to have a salable item to make money online.
You see, making money online is no different than making money offline.
How do you make money offline?By selling things! You open a sandwich shop, or you open a roofing company, or you open a day care.
In all cases - you are selling something - sandwiches, roofs, or your services.
You have to sell something.
Stop trying to find a way around it.
Now you have two choices - create a product or sell someone else's product.
Selling someone else's product is the easiest way to get started online.
You can become an affiliate of someone else, sell their product, they handle all the customer service, all you have to do is drive traffic to their page.
Or you can buy the rights to sell their product (that way you can keep all the money from the product you sell) and then sell it your self.
Either way is fine for getting started.
But in all reality, the people who really make money online (including myself) - we sell our own products.
So to sell your own products, you have to create them.
And that is work.
But it is the only way that you are really going to make money online.
