That is one of the most asked questions I get on a daily basis. People want to know plain and simple...tell me what I need to know in order to succeed online. They know other people are having success, they know they have the skills and drive, but they just can't seem to build any real income online. Well, I'm going to give you my opinion of what it takes to be successful online.
First and foremost, it takes developing a winning mindset! I know, you thought I was going to say that you needed to pick the right company, product, system, etc...in my opinion that is important, but not as important as developing the right mindset.
The fallacy that plagues the internet is that you need to find the right leader or business to be successful. In fact, it's just the opposite. You need to BECOME the leader! How's that for a switch? One of the biggest lessons I've learned over the years in business is "Find a need and fill it". Never have I heard it said that to become successful you need to "be the problem" and find a leader to be the solution to your problem...yet that is how most people approach their online businesses. So, in order to be a success online, you need to find a problem that most people face online and be their solution! Be their leader!
So, what is the number one problem found on the internet today? People don't know how to become the leader and offer someone else a solution to their problem. They only know how to look at all the problems in their own business and focus on themselves. Guess what? If you focus on problems, you will get more problems. This takes us back to mindset. If you will make the mental shift and stop looking at your problems and start offering solutions to your prospects, your business will explode! It's true if you open a restaurant, a retail shop, a tanning salon, whatever. It doesn't matter what type of business you run. You must offer solutions to your customers or your business will fail. Online businesses are no different except, unlike a "brick-and-mortar" business, the online world is much more competitive. Every day, in all parts of the world, in every walk of life, there are new businesses entering the online market to compete for your customers.
So, how do you set yourself up to be the leader? The key is to brand yourself, not your business. As we said earlier, people are looking for a solution to their problem. What is the biggest problem online today? People are looking for a leader to help them develop a real income online. Someone they can trust and who can teach them the skills needed to grow and develop. Once you can show people that you are that person, the business or product that you are trying to sell or grow is irrelevant at that point. They will seek your leadership and look to join you in your business. If you try to sell your business or products first, which is what most people do, you will be rejected most of the time! People have seen all the businesses and products out there. While many of them are good, they are not the solution people are seeking. They are not looking for another soap, vitamin, mlm business, etc. First and foremost, they are looking for a leader who can once and for all teach them to generate money online!
So, how do you brand yourself? I have chosen to use a system called MLM Lead System PRO . It allows me to brand myself and positions me as a leader. I highly recommend you take a quick look at it. It is exactly how you will want to position yourself when you decide to finally achieve success online. Take the $1 test drive and soak in all the training. Take good notes and feel free to cancel before the 14-day trial is over. The key is to see and understand what it takes to brand yourself. You can accomplish it on your own by developing your own system, so I am not trying to push MLMLeadSystemPro on you. However, these guys have developed a very good system and I want you to see how ideally it should work. I chose to use their system simply because it is up and ready to roll. I didn't have to figure out all the technical stuff.
So what makes this system different? This is the only generic self-branding system I know of, which is why I use it. I get to help people in ANY business, not just my primary business. When I was promoting my company's website, I would get a few people, but never got to talk to the other 97% again! I know they were looking for help and a solution to their problem, but I was offering them my business and products. Once I started using MLM Lead System PRO I began helping all of my leads. This system offers priceless training...for free. So, even the prospects who decide not to use the system walk away enriched! For the first time ever, I was able to reach out to ALL my prospects and offer a solution to their problem. In the process, my team has grown in my primary business as well.
Ok, so I think I've covered this topic in detail. In my next post, I will cover additional tips on how to build a very large residual income online! Stay tuned!

MUST Own Resources for Any Internet Entrepreneur
Starting a successful home based business requires a new set of skills unlike any other endeavor you could ever take on.
Of course, along with developing these skills, comes BIG MONEY!
Not only does it take courage, resourcefulness and unwavering persistence to succeed but you must also be willing to make some investments into your skill set as well. Investing in yourself and your skills is the BEST investment you could ever make. Better than investing in the stock market, real estate or commodities. Better than raising livestock, buying a Quiznos or even a gas station. When you invest in yourself, you are improving your own personal value in the marketplace, which is willing to pay you exactly what you are worth. Let me stress this. The market pays BIG money to those who possess high level skills and who are able to share those skills with others.
Alongside of your initial investment of start up capital to get your business started, there are certain tools and resources that are also highly CRITICAL to your success. From autoresponders to training courses to list builders, each of the below resources have been instrumental in the success I have been able to enjoy with my own Home Based Business.
No matter which business you are in, these tools will assist you greatly on your quest for success. I highly recommend a system that uses all of these resources all in one place and allows online marketers to brand themselves...easily. The creators of MLMLeadSystemPro offer a 14-day trial for only $1.00...that is FULL access to their entire system and training...for $1.00. Go through all the training, then cancel if you don't think the system will benefit your business...I took the test drive in Nov08 and generated 450 leads in the first 30 days for my primary business. Needless to say, I continued to use the system well past the 14-day trial, simply because it works!
Purchase one or all, - for every investment you make in yourself and your knowledge, if you are willing to implement the information and put forth the effort into your business, no matter what business you are building or product or service you are marketing, you will greatly benefit from the following tools.
Keep in mind that EVERY one of these tools, is also an Affliate Program, where you can earn money for marketing them as well. Make sure that if you want to get your services for FREE every month, that you sign up as an Affliate and keep records of all your Affliate Links for each. (Below, you will learn how to MAXIMIZE your Affiliate Income.)
Autoresponder
#1 - AWeber Autoresponder
An Autoresponder is simply a database of your leads and contacts that sends out pre-written messages to follow up, deepening your relationship and helping you make more sales.
Having a good autoresponder is critical to your success as it stores the list of people who opted in to your website. Without an Autoresponder, your online business would never survive.
If you are a CCPro Member, the CCPro System will automatically send follow ups to your leads and contacts, however, if you want the flexibility to customize your messages, broadcast to and monetize your list, this is a must have service.
Every top income earner in CCPro has this service, although you don't even have to be with CCPro to use Aweber.
Sign up for AWeber.
Training Courses#1 - Magnetic Sponsoring This course by Mike Dillard is considered to be the #1 Training Course in the Industry. Once you learn the strategies from Dillard's 7 Day Video Bootcamp & 65 page book, you will never look at your Home Based Business the same ever again. This course is for everyone, in any company.
HIGHLY RECOMMEDED#2 - Building on a Budget This course by Mike Dillard is for anyone who is looking to build their Home Based Business on the Internet, yet without spending thousands of dollars in paid advertising, pay per click or banner ads. In most cases, the resources that are listed are low cost, no cost, thus the name, Building on a Budget.
If you become a Carbon Copy Pro Member, these strategies and 20 others are included in your CCpro Back Office.
#3 - Black Belt Recruiting This course has 6 CDs & 40 Page Manual about learning the #1 Skill it takes to succeed in any Home Based Business - Recruiting. Included in this course is the best information in the Industry about prospecting, enrolling and every facet of these parts to your success. HIGHLY Recommended.
#4 - MLM Traffic Formula This Comprehensive Course covers everything from building a website complete with lead capture pages, offer pages and follow up autoresponders. It's THE Industry's #1 Guide for those wanting to build a Marketing Funnel from the ground up. If you become a Carbon Copy Pro Member, your CCpro Marketing System includes all that is discussed in MLMTF so that you don't have to create your own System.
#5 - Perry Marshalls Definitive Guide to Google Adwords This course is a must have for anyone who wants to take advantage of what Perry calls, "A raging river of business" (the internet) and for those who learn to position themselves in front of a hungry crowd of wanna be internet entrepreneurs. With just one read, you can driving traffic to your website within just minutes of setting up your own account.
List Builders
#1 - Viral URL
As an online marketer, you must get highly targeted traffic to your website.
You can use Google Adwords, Master SEO, Participate in Social Marketing, submit articles and press releases and set up a blog...or for FAST Traffic, with very little new skills that need to be learned, you can go with what we feel is the best list building service, Viral URL.
When I signed up for the Gold Membership at this site, I paid a one time fee and within just minutes, we were sending our first email broadcast to 3,000 other Online & Network Marketers.
By the end of the following day, I had generated 8 leads for my Primary Business (CarbonCopyPro), which doesn't sound like alot, but these were highly targeted prospects.
But here's the best part: You can mail 3,000 people, every 3 days, for the entire month. So...that's 30,000 Inboxes being hit with YOUR Email Message, promoting whatever you want.
PLUS, it allows you to "cloak" your urls's, which will help you keep more of your Affiliate Commissions. One of the worst ways to not get paid on your efforts, is to just send un"cloaked" urls to a Cold list. Once I learned how simple it is to do this, I will never send another URL without it being protected, as it could cost anyone thousands per year in commissions.
I can't even imagine how much we are going to make from just this one income stream alone. Truly amazing!
Sign up for Viral URL
#2 - List Joe
List Joe is like Viral URL. I use this service to reach even more MLMers and Online Marketers. Not only is this a great service, but you can earn a bunch of money every month with it by adding it to your list of Affliate Products you market.
Customized, Branded Attraction Marketing System - MLM Lead System Pro
When I first joined CCPro, I kept hearing about a way to monetize and maximize my marketing efforts, even if my leads and Applicants did not join CCPro with me.
At first, I just sent out random emails for the different services above, but after a while, it got too cumbersome to manage all of these different programs. So...I found out about a NEW online system that not only allows me to put all of these Affiliate Programs into one Sales / Marketing Funnel, but it also allows me to market my Primary Business as well!
It's called the MLM Lead System Pro and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this system to help you market ALL of the above Affiliate Links and Your Primary Business!
In just my first 30 days playing around with it, I've been able to generate 450 leads because of this System.

Hidden Success Secrets Revealed
As a Home Based Business Owner, learning to cut your losses is one of the top 3 hidden success secrets you'll ever experience on your way to big success.
Call it what you like - a success secret or a learning experience, either way, cutting your losses will free up your time, make you more money and give you true power to run your business.
These "losses" could be in the form of letting an unqualified prospect go, ending a useless relationship or even refunding a customer thousands of dollars before they even muster up the guts to ask for it.
"Why would you do that" you ask? You see, in the big picture of becoming successful, the whole world is watching and sometimes it's just going to be you. So how you operate, when nobody is looking, is what will determine your success of failure. And with "Time" being the most precious commodity, you must learn to protect, preserve and prioritize it, because you can always make more money...but you cannot make more time. Once it's gone, it's gone forever. And if you choose to squander it away by trying to convince someone that they should pursue an opportunity, or that they can be successful or that there is a great future for them by working with you, then you are not using your time wisely. You see, by letting the wrong people go, even if they are willing to pay to work with you, you are actually doing both yourself and the other person a favor. Holding on to someone or something that doesn't serve for the greater good of everyone, is truly a disservice, espeically when you spend time trying to sell someone on something that they don't want, don't need or can't afford. Remember, a person convinced against their will is of the same opinion still. This is why positioning is so critical to your success.
You see, when your prospects find YOU, you are now looked at as the leader - the authority who can teach them how to have others find THEM! A perfect example of this is MLMLeadSystemPRO. When you learn to market online, others looking for a new or better way to make money will stop by your website. They will see your offer to help them get everything they are looking for and opt in to your site. They then learn all about what they will get in exchage for their money and decide if they want to move forward or not. If they do, it was their decision in the first place. They then get the value your product or service delivers and you get paid. You make money just for them taking a look at what you do and it was their decision all along - not yours.
This is called MARKETING and it's exactly how all the top earners do it over at Carbon Copy Pro. We've cut our losses by only speaking with those who are willing to fill out an application and move to the next step to learn more about our Company, Product & how CCPro is helping thousands of people to earn thousands of dollars every week working from their home computer and telephone. So, if you are ready to roll up your sleeves and fill out your own Carbon Copy Pro Application, click here. We'll speak as soon as your application gets processed and show you the System. I am looking forward to showing you the money with your own CCPro Business! Cameron Long**************
Cameron Long is currently taking Applications to mentor just a small handful of others to start living their own dreams and goals.
