This was an inspiring post Josh and people in the IM space would be wise to pay attention to point #3 and build their online business as they go along.

Good points, good blog, but outsourcing?!? Not sure about that… If you want something done properly, do it yourself. I’ve had problems with outsourcing before, both in a call centre sense and general work sense

You’re right, to succeed one have to be focus – take laser light as an example.

I once suffered from information overload. I tried to write ebooks, design websites, promote affiliate products all at once. I didn’t went far until I FOCUSED on one thing.

Focus is the key to success, I’ll say.

Hi Josh.

Thanks for the inspiring post… I think it is great and very instructional. I also wish to thank PotPieGirl who mailed me this link. I give thumps up to all that commented sharing their own experiences…this is really great.

I started my IM project for the past six months now and still am at ground zero… this is really baffling me! Now I know the reason of my predicaments… informationation overload due to reading too much from different coaches. Even though I have chosen to do Affiliate Marketing using the “Article Marketing” model, I have wasted time in considering different approaches and never started on any one. Now I know better.

And the other four steps mentioned, I will surely be guided appropraitely. The comments by readers is gold to me… I have seen experiences of people who have traversed the same track.

Thanks.

Josh,

Great post! I know that as I was starting out I was tempted to buy several products that promised success but introduced different business models. I have learned over time which business model works for me and to build to proper foundation for that model before transitioning on to anything else. Outsourcing also helps to scale things up and to help one keep their focus on activities that actually make money and promote growth.

Thanks again Josh for another spot on post.

I came close to quitting not long ago, until I also discovered that I was pointing myself in too many directions and buying every shiny new product that promised a quick and easy payoff.

So many of the products being launched by the gurus are just more distractions, usually offering more of the same old stuff just repackaged.

Unfortunately, I’m still a sucker for an interesting $7 how to report that seems to offer a new angle on what I’m already doing.

Funny thing is though, often times, I’ve gotten more useful information out of some of those Free and $7 reports than I did from a couple of the $197 “systems” I bought into.

Thanks for the article. I feel like you are reading my mind! It is A LOT of work to do it all yourself. I’m glad to hear that you outsource. I’ve been considering it because my first website doesn’t look the way I’d like it to and I was considering hiring someone to polish it up.
You nailed it with the info overload. I have purchased your Info Product Success Formula book and one other program and am going through them now. I get 5 or 6 offers a day and have finally forced my self to delete them all for now. I definitely trust you and appreciate the advice.
Thanks for the never give up, I needed it.
I’m thinking about trying the Instant Article Wizard. I am exhausted from writing 30 articles for my first site, and the thought of doing that over and over is not something I’m looking forward to.
Do you recommend hiring a full time person to outsource to or hiring per project?

At my job, I’m surprised how many business users cannot perform their own job function without IT having to do it for them. They’re outsourcing their work internally.

I don’t know what I would do without outsourcing, do it as soon as you can afford to. Even buying some basic articles for a few bucks is a big help, especially when you are working with more than one campaign.
