How To Get Rich Quickly Online?


Image Credits: CartoonStock.com

Question 8: What is the Meaning of MTN? Wait for question 9 then send your answers to seun.adelana at gmail.com. Please check previous rules.

Sometimes ago, a certain young lady asked me to show her exactly how to make money online. I then went on to ask the individual what she is passionate about, and then she responded, saying she loves writing. I then responded that she could actually earn money online writing articles.

I shared with her a secrets i found sometimes ago of how one can write an article and submit it online and earn $3 – $5 for every 350-400 word article they write. The method of payment is actually by paypal, but since this individual is in Nigeria, I offered to help her out by receiving her payments whenever she earns money.

Now, she got started, wrote her first 3 articles and they all got rejected due to grammatical errors. I then went on to explain why she needs to edit her article. She resubmitted one of those articles and was offered $2.84 for a 350 word article. Not a bad start I told her, simply hone your skills and write more compelling articles and you’ll earn top dollars, I said. Personally, I have written articles that earned me $8.50 for a 450 word article.

And so, this morning, I checked my email and received another email from this same lady with the below excerpts (note, I have edited it without losing the main content):

I want you to know that this method of making money online is very slow. I want you to help me with something that will make me money very fast!

Please help me….Please reply

And so I responded, saying….

”The method you have will definitely make you money beyond your expectation, if you put your thought into it and map out a plan to earn 5 figures yearly. Imagine this:

$5 x 50 articles (weekly) = $250 weekly

$250 x 4 weeks = $1000 monthly = N153,000 Monthly!

Of course, there will be articles written that will earn you more. And yes, you could write 10 articles per day and submit it!

So map out a plan for yourself and get on with it!

Now, why did I share the above email?  It’s because I get mails like this on a daily basis, from individuals asking me how they can make money online very quickly. I’ve been doing online business for nearly 6-7 years, and I can tell you that the only way to make money quickly is if you are spread betting or are lucky to enter a Forex trade position when its trending in your direction. Apart from those unusual circumstance (one in 1 million odds) there is no way you can make money online quickly!

If you keep on searching for “How to Make Money Online Quickly”, then you end up “Getting Poor Quickly”

Yes, I know. I know you’ve read a lot of sales letter from internet marketers telling you that their system can start making you $2500 in the next minute you buy their formula/system or that you get paid $50 for typing per hour etc. I want you to know that those internet marketers have learnt something called “The power of persuasion”. How did I know? It’s because I have learnt it too. I can write a sales letter that will make you want to buy a product from me on impulse without thinking twice.

But lets think about it, if you buy a secret/system/voodoo/leak/cheat sheet etc (that’s what they are called…lol) from a self professed Guru (most times, they don’t have results to show for it), would it not take time to learn how the secret works? It will even take weeks, if not months before implementing and seeing results!

So can you see now that making money online is not a QUICK WAY of becoming rich? If you want to get rich quick, I suggest you try the lottery, and yes, you can get lucky playing the lottery, only that there are more chances of you getting broke than getting rich. You can calculate your chances of winning the lottery too

Making money online does not really exist! What exist is “Building business online that will make you money” So to make money online, you need to build a business that works entirely online and generate income. To build that business, you need to draw out your plan, find a best selling product, determine how many hours you’ll spend to work on selling it, consider the startup cost and treat your online business as a proper business and then…lastly SHOW UP! Once you are able to satisfy the above, then you can start making money online, because your business has helped you to!

By the way, if you want to know which website you can get paid $3 – $5 per article you write, simply go to Associated Content to sign up to start earning money writing articles online. If you want a detailed step by step tutorial e-book…do PM me

P.S. In my next post next Thursday, I’ll explain exactly how to build an online business and what you require and how to go about it…watch out for this!

How to Expand Your Business


This was the topic of my presentation to an exciting group of entrepreneurs earlier today. Think about this topic and the things I shared with them, I realize this information would be useful to a lot of people. Some of those people are reading this directly, and some others need to refer people to this link so that they can come and read as well. In the next few days, I have a few “How to’s” in my mind to share. These are really easy things that if you know and practice can make a lot of difference in your business and in your life.

The first ground rule however, if you truly want to learn, is to first empty your cup. You will not learn anything new, if you assume you already know. Knowledge or the assumption of it, is the greatest hindrance to more knowledge. As teacher students – the most excellent type of student, the one that listens to become a teacher, we must constantly humble ourselves and learn. We must not let knowledge puff  us up and make us resistant to new information. The day the seal of knowledge locks our ears, is the day we become useless and irrelevant to new possibilities around us. 20yrs experience as an employee does not equate to years of experience running a business. Sometimes the way up, is down. Never let any level of knowledge rob you of what you don’t know. There is no fool, like an old fool. Once you have laid aside your prejudices, let’s delve into how you can expand your business. Continue reading →

Do You Belong to A Cooperative?


Based on popular demand to become a part of a cooperative, I have decided to make this public. Anyone who joins the cooperative now, gets an opportunity to be one of the most senior people in the cooperative. Together we can grow our income and compound it. To be a part of this, you need to be a distributor with Holidays and Cash. There are many benefits to being in a cooperative, I strongly recommend that you become a part of anyone or this one if you really want to build lasting wealth. We will not be investing in anything short of Real Estate, Trading or Transportation. We’ll be leveraging on the best minds in the world to take decisions, and be leveraging on experiences from failed attempts.

Are you interested in any of these benefits?

Cooperatives are one of the best ways to starting the journey to financial mastery. Cooperatives, well run ones give you the following benefits.

1. An opportunity to develop a savings culture – you’ll be amazed what N5,000 per month for 30yrs at 20% interest per annum equates to. (Over N14 million)

2. It gives you an opportunity to be a part of big deals, and to become aware and hence find it easy to become wealthy.

3. It offers you an opportunity to learn about finances, you belong to a group of people at different stages of their development, you get to have the benefit of what others know.
4. A legitimate opportunity to make mouth watering interests twice a year, playing big in opportunities that small people don’t even see.
5. An opportunity to get loans at the lowest interest rates in town.
We have a cooperative that is easy to Join. You first need to be a part of our network (we are currently about 18,000), and then you can start saving as little as N5000 monthly. If you like you can invest in the cooperative shares as low as N50,000 one off.

Why I Passionately Recommend


It’s been a while I have written as consistently as I normally would. I have been on the move, adding value to what might seem a minority, but what is surely becoming a mighty army of people. Ever so often, I meet someone however, who reminds me of what a blessing my site has been to him or her, and I’m reminded never to ever underestimate the power of this blog and who may be reading. With due respect to that reality, I have yet again decided not to completely close this channel, but to strive to every motivate and inspire my online friends and audience.

The journey of personal development is not an easy journey, but if the needed prices are paid, it can be pleasurable. Trust me, travelling around the world on vacations with different teams of people can be so much fun. Learning their cultures, reading their history,  meeting the locals, sight seeing and all sounds like play, but if you where the cap of a student and a teacher, there is so much that is revealed. I long to share the lessons from the Maldives, to share insights from The Gambia and touch a bit on my breath-taking tour of Cotonou, Ivory Coast and Senegal – remind me I said breath taking :) . But today, I’ll want to share something that almost brought tears to my eyes, and the reason, why I will for the next few decades passionately recommend that you become a part of this global opportunity.

Opportunities and Enemies – 2


Summary Of Live Rewards for Week Ending on 28/03/2010

Platinum
Leadership Event Points:
597
Reward Type
 Period(22/03/2010 to 28/03/2010)
$5265.09
$855.97
Fast Start Bonuses $0.00
Total $6121.06

In the last article I analyzed a few key elements to watch out for before participating in any “opportunity”. Interestingly, I know that many who are analytical will not venture, and many who venture don’t analyze. Isn’t that strange? However I have decided to analyse the opportunities one by one, starting from the one I have the most authority to talk about, Holidays and Cash.

The table above is the statement of my earning on Monday morning. I have been earning constantly every Monday morning for the last 52 weeks plus now. It started small,  it has grown gradually and it’s still growing. The figure in the table above is certainly not the highest I have earned in a week, and it’s not the lowest as well. It’s just the most recent, and from the look of this week, it will exceed that figure as well. I also have had people who have earned more than me per week for many weeks and I have people who earn less. I am sharing this with you now, so that you can evaluate the opportunity for yourself and determine your goals before you start, if or when you start. I have been involved in some opportunities that made me enemies, this has made me great friends, good income and beamed the path into possibilities that are mind boggling for me. Let’s analyze together why this is not an opportunity that will make you enemies. You might want to refer to the previous article, since I’m going to be using the metrics defined there. Let’s go!

Why People are Rushing


Extra income, financial freedom, Own your own Business,
Personal Development, More Spare time, Retirement, Build
New Relationships, Help Other People, Leave a Legacy.

If any of these appeal to you, then this is going to be very exciting for you.

(vision board for my wife and I)

What you are about to read is a result of a mixture of common sense and a lot of experience at failing and learning. What is on ground today, is undeniably the best value proposition on the planet. When I share this opportunity face to face, people smile, most often laugh, and sometimes go hysterical. It’s good, but it’s true. Please read slowly and digest the concept and your possibilities.

In Summary, there is a company that offers it’s customers lifestyle enhancement products and opportunities. It also offers them a growing list of everyday items, and packages it all in a product bundle called a Privilege Pack. This privilege pack is a must have, considering how with so small money, you can get so much value. The privilege pack costs $250/yr or N40,000/yr. Continue reading →

Response to a Sincere Letter


Everyday, I get letters from people, recieve calls and generally interact with people accross different class divides and age ranges.  These letters are usually in 2 categories, there are letters that involve a request and letters that are simply saying thank you and showing appreciation. I also get questions, comments, enquiries, e.tc. Yesterday, I got a letter from someone that I have his permission to share and respond for him and all who occupy a similar circumstance to read.

Here is the letter, read carefully and find my response below.

Chairman,
How you dey? How’s business and family?
Sorry, i’ve been out of touch. Its not just because of time constraints, but as a result of the fact that i didn’t know how to ask the questions i’ve been wanting to ask. Its been an issue of the right questions create the right answers. That kind of thing.
By the way, my e-zine resumed yesterday, thanks for your suggestion. I sent it from my domain mail. God bless you so much for ur wealth of knowledge and depth of experience. God bless.
In this mail, i’ll be asking the right questions. Kindly take time to answer me- don’t rush. Thanks.
I’m in a fix- financially. Pareto’s principle has caught up with my income and my financial goals for the year have been elusive. I planned to increase my flow of income thru the haulage biz and forex but the loan i wanted to get for the former was not approved and the guy i invested in his forex biz has messed up by not giving me my returns. I invested $1400 in March, to be receiving a repayment of $280/month starting June but the guy trading the biz has been giving me stomach-upsetting excuses.
I know that i desperately need new income streams, moreso that our baby is coming pretty soon. A lot of needs are still outstanding and there seems to be nothing remaining to cater for any other thing. I usually get a loan from my wife before the end of the month. What do u suggest? What do i do to generate money?????????
Second, i know i’ve got stuff- intellectually. My pastor’s current series on Real Money has been thought-provoking. I know i have value but i’m yet to realise how to trade them for money. So how do i convert this to real money and, what do i need to do to keep adding value to myself?
As per working in XXXXXXXXX, i know its time to still stay here and learn. I have my eyes on enterprenurship ultimately but God told me a few months ago that i should still be here for now. But i want to make some passive income by the side cos i cant depend on my earnings here.
Questions, questions, so many questions. I need your counsel, brother.
Warm Regards,

“Chairman,

How you dey? How’s business and family?

Sorry, i’ve been out of touch. Its not just because of time constraints, but as a result of the fact that i didn’t know how to ask the questions i’ve been wanting to ask. Its been an issue of the right questions create the right answers. That kind of thing.

By the way, what we talked about resumed yesterday, thanks for your suggestion. I used what you recommended and it worked. God bless you so much for ur wealth of knowledge and depth of experience. God bless.

In this mail, i’ll be asking the right questions. Kindly take time to answer me- don’t rush. Thanks.

I’m in a fix- financially. Continue reading →

Before It’s in the NEWS


newspaper

I want to reveal a secret to you, please relax. You have already gotten to open this post, so you are ahead of a long line of people who wait a little longer to read. I’m going to share my heart with you, I’ll hope you’ll read me with your heart as well. Once our hearts believe, our heads can easily follow. I’ll also ask for your permission on a few things. If you can oblige me those things, this post and the mail you are about to read, will make a real difference in your life this year! Here are my few requests.

1. Before you continue reading question 2, make up you mind to empty yourself of all prejudices and preconcieved notions about referral based businesses. It might be tough I know, but your preconcieved positions will limit you. Trust me. Read objectively, and look with fresh eyes.

“The uneducated in the 21st century is not one who can’t read and write, it’s one who can’t learn, unlearn and relearn” – Dr. Tunde Bakare.

2. Don’t jump to the bottom, try and read this line by line and with an open mind.

3. Make your decision within 24hrs and take action. What you are reading will not be useful to you otherwise. Believe me though that it will make a difference if you conciously and delibrately make a positive move.

This are all that I require you to have in mind as you read further. Continue reading →
