I did a quick survey on  'Why Online Marketers Fail' and I am happy to share the results with you. Hope you learn something!

Quick Stat: It Is Estimated That 95% of Online Marketers Fail to Generate Any Income online.  

My results show that people believe:

1) You can make a lot of money online fast!

2) You can make money without spending any.

3) You don’t need any online tools to be successful.

You can add more reasons like Mind Set, Self Believe or Motivation to mention just a few but I think when you turn to the Internet to make money you are already motivated.

Let’s look at the 3 reasons above one by one.

You can make a lot of money online fast!

For the average online marketer, the answer is an absolute NO. In fact, it will take longer than you might think.

First, you will have to ‘work’ to separate all the Scams, Junk and BS you see on a daily basis from the actual legit and good programs.

After selecting a legit program, your actual promotions start. Getting buyers to buy your product or members to join your program.

You can make money without spending any.

Yes, you can promote a product from Click Bank, JvZoo or Warrior Plus and hope to make a sale but this is not ‘making money’ online. This is actually, working like mad, frustration and at the end failure.

You need a system and to monetize any system you will have to spend money.

NOBODY and believe me NOBODY will give you money for doing nothing. If it was that easy all of us would be rich by now.

You don’t need any online tools to be successful.

When you start, you can maybe get away without tools, depending on the program you use but very soon you will need at least a reliable autoresponder.

‘The money is in the list’ and without follow-up emails and promotions you leave money on the table.

An autoresponder is the most important tool and I will talk more about list building a bit later.

How I make a living online.

Let me start by saying this: Without the right system, no matter how brilliant, promising or good 

the opportunity is, you will never make anything with it!

My friend Bryan and his team created a list building/make money funnel. I monetized my funnel and use it to build my list and make sales. In the past (a couple of years ago) you could publish a capture page and people will give their name and email but now you must offer them something legit, something they can use and something that will make them money when used correctly to get them on your list.

Today I give you your own free funnel but you will have to monetize it yourself or you can use it just to build your list. 

I promise you, you need a list and the quicker the better. (List Building).

According to a publication just released in the UK, for every $1 you spend on emails marketing, you can expect an average return of $32. This is why, it's important that you start building your list of subscribers, immediately!

I connected my autoresponder (I use GetResponse) to my funnel to better control my list. It makes it easier and less confusing.

When people join my funnel and use it just for list building it is fine but when they buy any of the products within the funnel I make money and I know that person is a buyer.

Now I can use my autoresponder to send more offers and make more sales.

I am also a free member of a program where I get 1 valuable product per month for free.

You can join here for free and get the valuable monthly free product that you can give away (to build your list) or sell (to make money), it is up to you.

You can join me by joining My Funnel, GetResponse and my Free Product, then use the training videos inside the programs as well as the training emails that I will send you to start earning online.

Whatever you decide, PLEASE stay away from all the Scam and BS on the Internet.  Never ever believe you will get rich for doing nothing or that you will earn thousands of dollars within the next 10 minutes, 12 hours or whatever the promises.
