Spending a Little to Make a Lot

This article is very special to me because it represents everything that I do on a daily basis. The fact is I have found there are two major ways to make money and succeed in business, and in my experience these two factors are very important, I don’t even know how you’d possibly succeed without them. You ready? It’s very simple. To make money you have to either A) work your ass off, or B) spend a lot of money. But to be completely honest with you, I’ve found that you need to do C) work your ass off AND spend your money, if you want to succeed.

But that doesn’t always mean you have to spend a lot. In my experience you can spend just a little bit and end up making a lot back. There’s nothing to stop you from achieving success with your small budget and without needing much else. All you need to do is put your time and efforts towards some small investment opportunities that actually work. I find myself spending $25 on a Soundclick advertisement once in a while, as well as many $20 advertisements for other websites.

Finding 3rd party websites that already have a large clientele is a great way to enter the world of successful businessmen. Don’t forget that you want to work smart and move towards your goals that you should be throwing in an even recipe of time spent verses money spent. You can’t expect to be lazy and still be successful.

YOU are the one who is the most in control of your total overall success. The fact is even if you spend the money to get your advertisements out into the world of your potential clientele, and on top of that you’re working hard towards completion of your goals, you may still find yourself failing when it comes to being a salesman. When a potential client contacts you, you need to be able to land those sales.

As a salesman you need to actually figure out what your client needs and fulfill their specific requirements. If you can tap into what the customer needs, well… You can actually SUGGEST to them what they should buy. Just recently I had somebody contact me for graphics and I talked them into paying for a full web design project. Another example is somebody contacted me for a lease and I ended up upselling an unlimited license at 4x the price.

These are the basics of making money online and selling. You can’t expect to spend NO money, put in NO time and be a terrible SALESMAN… And still make money. It’s just not going to happen. Focus on getting these skills up as much as possible.
