Making the First Sale in Your Online Business


Whatever method you chose to make money online you will know that your business I up and running when you have made the first sale.

How will it feel to make that first sale?

The first sale I made was in 2006 and the feeling is a little difficult to describe. Initially it was disbelief that through all the efforts I had put in I was now at last making money online.

How did I do this?

Back then my online business was promoting other peoples products through being an affiliate. As this is one of my chosen methods of making money online I hope that this is not a shock to you. And now you can start to see that the methods I am talking about, which have been around for a number of years and are actually making money for me and others are proven.

I started as an affiliate marketer for SBI and I am still making money as an SBI Affiliate, and many other companies. 

How did I learn about being an affiliate marketer?

 From Rosalind Gardner who is one of, if not the web’s most established and respected affiliate guru’s. In her book Super Affiliate Handbook she taught me the techniques she had been using for years to make a very healthy living making money online.

So that was in 2006 and today Rosalind is still making her living from being an affiliate and teaching us how to make money using her tried tested and effective techniques.  If you take this similar road to me and have Rosalind as your teacher when you have made your first sale or earned your fist commission the next step is to take a look at her Affiliate Blogger Pro which will teach you even more techniques for making money online as a blogger and affiliate all at the same time.

How long will it take to make that First Sale?

This is one of the most common questions asked on the forums, the blogs, twitter and social networking sites. I recently saw this question appear on a forum which was answered in a very interesting way. Interesting because most of the hype on the internet about how to make money online is usually that with the correct technique and using the advice of the author or this special software or that e-book you can be seeing your first sale in hours, or days.

Sadly this is not normally the case. The individuals who are making money on the internet from the methods I promote and talk about will tell you that to make money online will take time.

For me it took about three months for the first sale to be made. With The Five Pillars Program from SBI every time you make a sale or one of your customers renews, an email is sent informing you of the sale. It is a great feeling and a memorable moment when that email comes through because form that moment on you know that your efforts are paying off and now you have made one sale the next will be easier.

Getting to that first Sale

To get to that first sale you will have to put in a great deal of effort. The first is always the most difficult and if you think that it will be easy, making money online may not be for you.

However if you are patient, determined, focussed and have a plan you can do it.

The truth is it takes time to launch your online business and start making money. The time it takes will depend on the product and route you take to make money.

 I have invested many hours of research into the methods and can reveal that some of the methods that have been around for some time are the best methods, but it will take sweat, tears, frustration and patience to succeed.

In my research I have discovered that only 3% of online businesses succeed as a work form home income. This tells me that to succeed from one of the many methods there are to make money online you will need determination and advice on making money online.

These methods are all explained in more detail on the website www.pjwenterprise.com 
By adopting these methods I am now well on the way to building the online business that will provide me with the money I want to buy the luxuries I want.

For all new online businesses it is important to be able to get advice on making money online by using a trusted resource and methods that we can all use and relate to.  The 4 main methods on www.pjwenterprise.com mean we don't have to keep trawling the internet to find that elusive answer.
You too can earn that money you want whether for a holiday or to replace your full time income if you are prepared to commit the time that it takes to become successful.

It is exciting when you start to make money online and as the internet continues to grow we can all continue to find new ways to make money and invest in new tools that will teach us new methods to make money.

As these new methods come available I will research them and either write about them on my website or submit a new blog to review and give my opinion.

A little but of advice for today would be to ensure that when you are looking at products check the person out behind the product and see where you can find that person on the web and determine for yourself what kind of profile they have and if they can be trusted with your hard earned cash.
