I Woke Up To This

The ebb and flow of an affiliate marketer can go from zero to one hundred and it can be full of disappointments, but also provide moments that can open up possibilities for your continued growth is unmatched.

Anytime, I can either learn something new or do something that wasn't so much new; but that I sat around counting my what if's and just do it and realize that I still have every limb in tact - is priceless.

Yes, dramatic; but I'm trying to draw a vivid picture in my reader's mind.

For those few of you that know me by now, definitely can relate to my story with online marketing. I mean the basics that is.

Years ago, I tried to use my time online to earn a buck or two or three and failed miserable (not for lack of trying) and basically quit and it took years for me to try again.

I've only been back for about two years, but a hell of a difference in results compare to the five years I previously put into it. I don't want to say that it was a complete failure, because I did walk away with some valuable lessons that I either put into practice or kept away from this time around.

Honestly, this post centers around something that I've been doing the last two years with some success and trying something not so unique but with a different audience. But it shows how powerful if can be, once the rough edges are filed down to as close of well oiled machine it can potentially become.

I've been use ad sites, in particular viral mailers to build my lists and have done a WAY BETTER job with it the last two years as I put a lot of effort to being as visible as I could. This I learned from @jongolson years ago. The dude preached this to no end. Brand YOU first before you promote other people's stuff and of course building a list. That was the standard. You have to have your own list.

Then social media exploded and Jon again hollered and screamed about how important it was to ENGAGE folks through social media. Build relationships and through those relationships and the evolution of loyalty and trust will help you succeed along the way.

Needless to say, those of us who didn't go all in on these type of lessons that Jon was providing out in the open on a daily basis got left behind.

Fast forward to 2022 and a lot of the lessons that now many have caught onto and understand the power of engagement and putting yourself out there and having folks getting to know and trust you is now morphed into endless possibilities on the HIVE blockchain.

But, I still promote outside of the blockchain in the old stomping grounds where we all got our start and folks are still doing the same damn thing - either the wrong way or not building off of what has potential to kill it on HIVE.

But really, the lesson of engagement in any business on a blockchain or off of it; is set in stone - if you are not engaging with your audience or you being part of an audience and not engaging back; it's going to be tougher to get ahead as an online marketer.

The above is a segue into how powerful being part of CLICK.TRACK.PROFIT, the Inner Circle and The CTP SWARM can be.

Folks will bitch and moan about their lack of success (I have been one of those), but not seek out true mentorship and you don't even need to pay a mortgage to get it.

I've learned more or failed to learn more out of stupidity (from inaction) being part of CTP, because if I failed and seen others on the tribe excel at it; it's because they took action and I didn't.

I was determined to make a bigger move to take my online marketing efforts more towards HIVE and it just so happens that Jon * @blainjones and @elianaicgomes had the re-launch of ListNerds in the lab.

Now, in all honesty; I have a million possibilities in my head right now and have to slow it down. Have to test and track, tweak and be consistent.

I sent my first solo as an Enterprise level member and used some @mba2020 and CTP Swarm sauce and engagement ensued:

Ok, again; didn't I say I was dramatic?

I know I'm exaggerating, but it was a very pleasant surprise. I simply sent out a Solo email ad with the subject line: Are You Commemorating Your First ListNerd Solo?, mentioned I upgraded to Enterprise and asked a question with a link to my last Luke is Alive post and voila:

Oh and did I mention: I earned for sending the email out without have to sell anything?

I read ctp posts on occasion but have yet to figure out how it works. I can not currently afford to put USD into the actual site to go anywhere but wonder if I could use my hobby as a crafter to earn more.
Is there something I can read that would be helpful?

@wanderingmoon - you are already on HIVE, so that is a great start. You are way ahead of most who are not on this blockchain to begin with.

I would put an emphasis on what you can accumulate on HIVE by posting, commenting, etc. Won’t cost you a dime. BUT, you must be consistent.

Also, follow HIVE folks on Twitter.

The CTP folks have live streams for entrepreneurs a few times a week.

There is a CTP Telegram group.

The very popular Cryptomaniacs podcast every Tuesday and Fridays hosted by THE - Jon Olson and THE Taskmaster4450 where you can definitely get some great nuggets of wisdom.

Tons of options.

Two great places with amazing folks:

@ctptalk
@wearealive

Just let me know if I can answer any questions once you hit the ground running.
