Why Many Affiliate Marketers Are Always Plugging The Next Big Thing
Over 90% of individuals fail when using affiliate programs such as Empower Network in a bid to make money online. Today we will show you the number one reason why this keeps happening and why some of those individuals have probably made the same mistakes for years.
Nine out of ten people who try to use the internet to become their own boss fail. That statistic should be enough to tell you that this isn't an easy career choice. However, more and more people are trying their hand at it every single day.
One of the biggest culprits responsible for causing entrepreneurs to fail online is false marketing. People are often led to believe that the internet can turn your life upside down overnight. This leads to folks joining countless affiliate programs every week or two, hoping they have stumbled across the one which is going to change their life.
Of course, the majority of people who try to create their own business in the real world fail as well. It's just that those figures are not published for all to see. The fact is you'll face a tough time if you are to achieve your ambitions. If you do not genuinely love your idea then it won't work. This is a major issue in affiliate programs, where many members have joined purely for the income opportunity. []
This is why most people trying to carve out a secondary income via the internet fail.
Despite the fact that most of the hype surrounding the 'get rich quick' statements you'll see on various affiliate programs, some of the statements are indeed true. It is a fact that you do not need to hold any previous experience or qualifications to succeed. However, this fact makes things seem a little to easy and tends to attract people who are merely interested in a free ride.
If you were immediately drawn to the possibility of an online business because you don't like the idea of pushing yourself hard, then you should cancel whatever affiliate program you have joined immediately. It doesn't matter whether you believe your chosen business has the potential to be the next Facebook or Google, and it doesn't matter how great the compensation package is. If you don't work at your business every day you won't reach any success. Many people falsely believe they can strike it rich by getting in early to new opportunities and then watching the earth move underneath them as others join later. []
Companies actually target these individuals with their marketing, too. This means more money for them in the difficult first few months of their existence, so it's only natural that they take advantage of it. As well as developing their product range and affiliate plan in a bid to attract serious entrepreneurs and heavy hitters, they also put out advertisements to catch the eye of those who are sitting on the fence and looking for an easy financial solution. This is where the common trend for a 'pre-launch' comes from. The pre-launch allows people to join for free and build their business in the hope of hitting the ground running when it goes live, but all it really does is attract freeloaders and build a larger email list for the company.
Working for yourself is not supposed to be easy. Those who want to find an easy solution to their financial future are the ones who are often sucked into an endless cycle of joining different affiliate businesses but never making the most of any of them. Whether it's Empower Network, Global Domains International or Avon doesn't really matter. Even potentially lucrative programs are useless because you won't be able to make money online until you begin treating your business opportunity with the seriousness it deserves.
