Are You Top Heavy With Information?

It's a maze, isn't it? There's so much information online now, you no sooner start to go through what looks interesting and relevant to you, when hours have passed. Guess what? You're no further forward with your business. You're still stuck in that maze, trying to find a way out to online business freedom.

You're bound to feel weighed down by it, and most people just keep adding to that weight on a daily basis. Are you getting emails day in and day out telling you about the latest greatest thing to have come out? You might actually know a lot from your searching through information online but still no action is taken.

Online business at its core is very simple, as it should be. Create a product, then sell it. Or sell somebody else's product.

It's literally a waste of time looking for the mythical magic button, method, scheme or whatever. You just get deeper and deeper into the maze until you don't know where you are. And you've got all this stuff you're carrying around in your head.

Start with selling. If you haven't got your own product yet, sell as an affiliate or buy a product you can sell as your own.

Here's a simple plan.

Put up a squeeze page with a form from your autoresponder service to collect people's emails. Keep building your list using this and other squeeze pages you create.

What can you inform them about and teach them about? Whatever it is, and however small your knowledge is, tell them about it so it's useful to them. Don't see them as people to keep sending offers to. Instead develop a useful relationship with them.

Help them with their problems in your niche. Plus, make offers of what you know are good products.

When you think you have a good relationship with your list, and feel you can continue to build it, then make your own product. You can then make that an offer to your list.

You'll see you do  not need a sales page of any kind at first because you are sending people to the product owner's sales page. You can focus on list building. To do that send the people who click your links to your squeeze page first, and then send them from there to the product sales page.

If you don't have the money to spend on buying traffic, or don't want to do that, do it through content marketing which is free of money costs. However, there is a time cost, plus it's slower and more sporadic than paying for traffic.
