Welcome to Course One The Basic Essentials

Lucian, think of "Course One" as the tip of the iceberg. Before you dip into the juiciness of online business you need to know the very basics about how to use the computer, how to use the internet, and what all of this money making talk is about in the first place. Otherwise, you'll have the most awesome system (right here) at your fingertips and have no idea how to build a business and income from it!

Don't try to be Mr. or Mrs. (or Ms.) know-it-all either. I've been there and done that. I'm a professional online marketer and when I start to think I know it all that's when I learn something extremely simple and basic, and find myself amazed I didn't know it. You never know it all, even if you think you do!

The basic lesson here is to be open to being transformed and coached. Dust off all of your old habits, and let this system teach you the right way to do business online. If you haven't been successful yet then you must be doing something wrong and you need to do something different, right? The trick to being successful is quite simple, you just copy exactly what successful people are doing already.. and you will naturally have the same success. There is no need to reinvent anything. The Prosperity Marketing System works and the training delivered in the courses you will be covering works.. anything else you learn anywhere else from anyone else is questionable.

Today we are going to ensure that you have all of the basic but VERY critical knowledge in order to feel comfortable paving ahead into the online world of business. Remember, this is NOT a hobby. We are doing business here, let's treat it like one. Put your nose to the ground, get to work, and realize your full potential!

This is the only course that isn't going to be structured in a step-by-step fashion (the other two courses will). The reasoning behind this is because you need to use this first course as a library. Below you will find access to what I believe are the best videos and information on the topics that will help you build a solid foundation. Some of it you may know, and some of it you won't (even if you are already super experienced), because of this I want you to look over the topics and choose which ones you need to pick up and learn. If you are new to using a computer and the internet then logically this information would NOT have been easy for you to find on your own, so you will be happy to see I have already searched out and found the information for you. In the end you will also learn that no matter what it is you are seeking to learn, you can find it via the Internet... and that, my friend, opens a world of additional self-learning.

Internet Marketing Basics

What is Internet Marketing and why is it so awesome?

It can be labeled many things.. Affiliate Marketing, Internet Marketing, Network Marketing, MLM, Multi-Level-Marketing, etc. but it all boils down to one simple thing. It's all about promoting someone else's products (unless you have your own).

No matter what you call it, the fact is that promoting other people's products is the laziest, fastest, and easiest way to make money online.

There are many huge benefits to promoting someone else's products. 
They create the product, handle customer support, and do most of the work; YOU get paid handsomely simply by promoting their products.

To promote someone else's product they provide you with an affiliate link that is unique to you, all you do is focus on sending traffic to it.. and when you get sales, you make money! But only if it were that simple, right? :) The fact is many people fail trying to do this... and it is because they don't know how to market online correctly.

If you really want to achieve true financial freedom and make yourself rich (not others), the fastest, cheapest, and easiest way is... to have your very own internet business. Now this may sound tricky, but it's not. The fact is, you can still promote other people's products and not have any of your own products, and it will still be your very own internet business. The way you make it yours is by keeping control, building a contact list of prospects and customers, and branding yourself.

That's why the Prosperity Marketing System is here.. to help you get on the right track and making more affiliate commissions than you can handle! You'll learn all about that in Course Two, first let's continue why Internet Marketing is so awesome.

What are the advantages of having an online business over an offline business?

 You need very little or no start-up capital! (Have you thought of the costs an offline business would require?)

 You don't need to manage any employees you're forced to pay every period, regardless of whether they did anything worthwhile. (but you can outsource your boring, manual tasks to save valuable time).

 You don't need to pay for inventory and storage costs. (Everything is downloadable instantly, unless you sell physical products online.. but even so most of the time they will handle the shipping for you).

 You can effectively promote or advertise your online business for free (or low cost) - in many different and creative ways...

 You can operate your business anytime and anywhere you like, as long as there's a computer and internet connection!

 You don't need to do any cold calling or personal selling. You can be the shyest person in the world and still be a sales superstar without saying a single word. That's the power and leverage of the internet.

 You get to keep almost 100% of the profits. You can sell the same information product over and over again without incurring additional cost (unlike physical products where you have to order repeatedly and you only get a percentage of the selling price). Just think about it... 1 information product = unlimited sales (since it's downloadable); 1 physical product = 1 sale only.

 The world is your market! (unlike most offline businesses where customers come only from the neighborhood).

Internet Marketing is fun, stable (you can literally make money on demand), and you have no limits on the amount of money you can make!

This just goes to show that if you don't capitalize on the moneymaking power of the internet, you're leaving mountains of money on the table.

Get Your Questions Answered By Other Internet Marketers...

Sometimes the best way to figure something out is to ask. Don't let your pride get in the way.. if you have a question, ask it! It's what successful people do when they are stuck too.
