I’ve spent years online, looking for that ‘perfect’ opportunity. You know, one that’s going to make me rich over night. Since I didn’t want to fork over any money for this magical opportunity, natural course was affiliate links. And truth is, affiliate links are great. The problem was, like most newbies, I got carried away. My website had a link to every product known to man shoved into every nook and cranny--but no buyers.

I didn’t know what I was doing wrong. My ads were great (at least in my opinion). My free banners were great. Just no sales. Not many visitors, either.

Then two things happened simultaneously.

First, I became an affiliate for Dish Network Satellite. Nothing new there. But as soon as I signed up, I started receiving training e-mails from them that included hundreds of links to where I could post my ads. Everything started to change. I found a whole new forum where thousands would see my ads—and it was FREE.

I never sold to a single subscription to Dish Network, but two minutes I spent to join were priceless because of training and links.

Just go to website below and click on "Affiliate Program" and join (for free, of course). http://www.vmcsatellite.com/?aid=84511

(By way, I still promote Dish Network. I owe them a lot!)

The second thing that happened was directly because of my excitement over Dish Network training. I started looking for more training. I began reading newsletters I’d been deleting since beginning of internet. And I started learning.

The more I read, more I wanted to read. I posted my ads every day, read all articles I’d received, then searched for more business newsletters where I could subscribe for free, which includes most of them.

I started following their advice as best as I could. I cleaned up my web site to a professional level. I started a newsletter of my own. I started reading e-books from masters. Free ones at first, then some I actually paid for. They were worth every cent!
