Starting a new business can be an exciting experience. The thrill of the adventure and the gratification of knowing you're the master of your own destiny. I've started a number of companies during my lifetime and I've had many money making business ideas including an internet business and I can tell you first hand starting each and every one was the best feeling ever!
Now each of the businesses I've started had varying startup costs. The most expensive was about $25,000 which covered the costs of two lawyers, one accountant and a whole slew of unexpected 'minor' expenses.
The least expensive cost me absolutely nothing. Yup, that's right...zero, zilch, zippo, nada! While every business I've started was rewarding in and of itself, the thrill of knowing I was making money by risking none of my own was by far the best.
The focus of this article is going to be about this very lucrative business called affiliate marketing. I use the term lucrative because affiliate marketing and more specifically article marketing is almost like a license to print money and it won't cost you one single penny to start.
All that is required is a computer, an internet connection and the desire to be successful. Even if you don't have your own computer, it's as easy as heading down to your local library and using the public one there.
So what's involved in article marketing? Article marketing at its most basic level is when a company pays you for selling their product or service. Your first step is to become an affiliate or salesperson for a wide range of companies. This is a free and easy procedure. Two popular choices are Click Bank and Commission Junction. These two companies represent thousands of other companies so it's a one stop shop for you.
The next step is to research about a product and write articles explaining how a particular product or service might help someone in need. I'll give you a little hint here. The best sales writing is actually designed not to sell but in fact to help.
After you have written your article, you publish them to free websites. These free websites are specifically setup to help the public find answers to their questions or needs. Included in your article will be a link to the solution for their problem. When that person purchased that product or service, you earn a commission.
Finally, and this is the best part, you can repeat this process as many times as you want. The more articles you research and write, the higher your earning potential is! It's that simple.

I'm here to tell you I have personally made money by article marketing. There are many money making business ideas out there but I started my best internet business after I found an amazing set of videos that taught me everything I needed to know about article marketing. The author of these 25 videos totaling more than 15 hours of instruction was personally taught by Travis Sago the founder of what has been coined 'Bum Marketing.' |
