Dont Treat Your Business Like a Casino
Sopan Greene, M.A.
Its amazing how many people are jumping into the internet marketing business. The good news is that the pie is pretty unlimited so we can all get a nice slice. The bad news is that most of the people I encounter are thinking that they can buy some "miracle" product, sit around and money will show up.
Whats up with that This is a business, not a casino where you put down your money and hope it makes more for you. The bottom line with this business is that you will have to put in time and money to build, key word - build, your business. The more time you put in, the less money you have to put in. Why dont people get this They need to start treating their business like a business and stop treating it like a hobby or a trip to the casino.
Its pretty basic business sense. No big secret here. On the internet you can run a business for under $100 a month to start. Most businesses cost AT LEAST $5,000 to get started and take 3 years to make ANY profit. The "little guy" has NEVER had such a great opportunity to make so much money before now.
On the internet you can build a business by spending only 5 or 10 hours a week. Spend it getting yourself free advertising and it will continue to build your business for years. How amazing is that
Theres a ton of money to be made for anyone who wants to build an online business the right way. Lord knows theres also plenty of products that are great to teach you how to do it right.
But I keep hearing from people who think theyre going to put up a site and people will magically find out about it and buy what theyre selling. If you build an ice cream stand in the middle of the desert do you think people will magically find it and buy ice cream Its the same concept.
Thats not how it works. Its called internet "marketing" for a reason. The more you market and the better you market, the more money youll make. Even better, the longer you do it the easier it gets to make even more money.
Have these people ever heard of any business making money by just opening a storefront It disappoints me to run into people with this attitude because I know they could do really well if they would just put some effort into creating their business.
Cmon. Get real. Do these folks really expect to get results with an attitude of, "Ill spend some money and try this internet marketing thing to see if works." Try to pick up a pencil off the floor. You cant. Its impossible. You pick it up or you dont.
"Try" is a myth. When someone says theyll "try" to do something its wimpy code for "I expect to fail at this and have no intention of committing to getting results."
Do it or dont but dont lie to yourself about "trying" anything. Have you seen someone "try" to diet or seen a teenager "try" to not talk back to parents
How did that work out
These folks will give up quickly and settle for lives that dont turn them on. Theyll keep on doing work they cant stand until one day theyll die. On their death bed all youll hear is "I shouldve, couldve wouldve but didnt."
Imagine if these people instead had the attitude of, "Im building a business to create the life of my dreams for me and my family and nothings going to stop me!" Thats completely different from ,"I bought this how to make money on the internet product and Ill try to do what it teaches and see what might happen, maybe, if I have time after I watch the game." Which attitude do you think produces better results
As long as were alive for 80 to 100 years why dont we live it up and have fun making money and making more free time to do what we want with people we love
The one thing no product can give you is passion and motivation. Thats what you bring to the table every day. Im driven by a passion to create my own multiple residual income streams so that I wont have to ever work a job I hate again. I also have a passion to empower others who have dreams of creating lives of freedom for themselves.
What are you passionate about How can you make money from that Why dont you go to work on it today
Dont fall into the trap these people are in. If you dont like how your life is and you want to make it better, feel the pain of where your life will be in 10, 20 or 50 years if you stay on the same path. Let that pain fuel you into action to take control of your life and build your dreams into your reality.

The Fine Print Behind Online Gambling Bonus Offers If you have never opened an account with an online casino, poker room, or sports book you may be wondering if the bonus offers are legitimate. We are all aware of the wisdom in the sayings, “If an offer sounds too good to be true, it probably is” or “There is no such thing as a free lunch”. So what’s the catch When a casino offers you $100-$1000 in free money should you dismiss it, assuming that there are all sorts of strict requirements, making it too difficult to achieve the pay-out The quick answer is no. These offers are for real and in most cases the required terms and conditions to receive the pay-out are typically quite easy to achieve. Some are as simple as making small minimum deposit of $50 to $100. Some require, in addition to minimum deposit, a minimum, but achievable, level of play.
