Making Money online: A beginners guide

Hey it's Arik Bannister, and I have some juicy tips on making money online. But first, a bit of background: I am the owner of the online video ad production company CommercialMaker. We have created thousands of videos for businesses and entrepreneurs, and many hundreds of videos for online marketers, network marketers, affiliate marketers, MLM marketers, you name it.


Now we thoroughly explore and dissect every online marketing system that we deal with, and our staff frequently joins programs to test the validity of them. We found that the majority of them did not work for beginners, although they may have worked for more experienced internet marketers.


The ones that did work for beginners, and proved to make money quickly (good money), were passed around so others could take advantage of the best opportunities. What's ironic is that we lost two employees because they began making better money online than they did with CommercialMaker. I was offended (and thought they were idiots). Suddenly I was working 14-16 hour days trying to be several people. I was overseeing video production, editing, marketing, managing, billing, and more.


I needed to cut my hours but increase revenue. I had no idea how that would happen, but I was desperate. Then I came across The Rich Jerk ebook we had floating around. That was a beautiful day.


Fast-Forward...


Now I work part-time on CommercialMaker, and spend the other half of my time making money from the marketing systems that we find work the best. I love producing videos; it started out as a hobby that turned into a full-time career. But I was doing so many things simultaneously that I hardly had time to eat lunch. Now I only 'work' the amount of time that I'm comfortable with, and I can still support my family with the income I get from using these internet marketing strategies.


So here you will find information on the best online marketing strategies, systems, gurus, and programs that can make anyone money EASILY.


I was always pretty skeptical about online money-making programs. I thought they were ALL scams, because I didn't really understand how it all worked. So if you are anything like I was, you probably want to know the basics. Most of the systems I will tell you about are inexpensive, but they do require a small investment. But the first one you should look at, which is actually free--and packed with useful information--is Rick Butts' free ebook "How to Monetize Your Blog to Make $1000 + Per Month".


Now, making $1000 per month does not really sound like a lot right? What's cool is that he shows you how to generate that on ONE website or blog...then duplicate the process 10 times or more. Get it?


This is a must-read for anyone who wants to know how some people make millions online, while others can barely make $10 in a month. Once you understand how to really make money online honestly, without taking advantage of people, please share your insights with others as I am sharing with you. There is more than enough to go around for everyone.


Thanks for visiting, and please leave a comment or recommendations on programs or online marketing strategies that we can share with others.
