Thinking long term……..

I had an email from my top recruiter….. actually, I think she may just a little ahead of me now, I need to get ahead of her again …. anyway, we chat most weeks by email and she keeps suggesting a few things.

I actually agree with her, but as always, application is hard to judge, but here is what she says and what I also say.

1 – this venture, in fact ALL ventures, require a long term view. Long term does not mean a few months either. It means commiting for one year to get the foundations set.
She suggested some people who have been working hard for years that now earn a lot of money per year from their sites. And they deserve the money they have earned too.
I always think of sites like TrafficHoopla. Here is a guy who knew that to build a business you first need to grow the traffic. Especially in traffic exchanges. So he built TrafficHoopla with the intention of promoting that site for the sole purpose of building his downlines and earning referral credits BEFORE he started to promote the venture he actually wanted to earn from.

It ended up taking him two years of hard work before he was happy with the levels of free traffic he was earning to promote his money making venture. Incredibly the traffic generating site ended up being his money maker site…. but the real lesson here is he spend two years just focusing on building his traffic generating downlines.

Another person, a good friend of mine actually, Mike Cobb who owns Home-Income-Team.com set up that site with the same idea but his focus was to also build his downline in GDI.
He spent 18 months just building his traffic exchange downlines.
His GDI focus did not work as planned but he did grow a massive series of downlines that generated a lot of free traffic for him.
He now earns his money promoting online marketing material and has been doing that for over five years now.
The cool thing is he also was instrumental in other full time money makers along the way.

PTC Business Builder is the same thing. Although the focus is not traffic exchanges the concept is the same.
We build our PTC downlines to earn more…. when we earn more we can promote more….. the more we promote the more we earn the more we promote….. PLUS we build the downlines in multiple money making sites along the way.

It is the same concept….. the first year, whether it is me or you…. is to build the downlines in yout PTC sites and to pour as much money as you can into promoting your link to speed the process up.

This will take one year to gain a good active PTC downline.
It will take over one year to to join the money maker sites.

And here is the the thing… it will take two years to get the big earnings from this venture.
It seems slow and painful, there will be ups and downs (look at last month when the site did not work for a while and then the database lost people… how terrible is that but it happens and I personally took a very deep breath to see how much damage it had done… but I did not stop or give up, I continued to promote and build the trust up again)…. but that is the nature of business evreywhere.

So… what is the point I am making?
Bluntly it is this.
Prepare for this to take time….. and if this is not for you…. then prepare for the same thing regardless of which site you end up promoting.
Also, do not think that finding 20 downline members will do the job….. 20 downline members will find one semi active person.
100 members should get you one good person.
But in all honestly, to find and befriend and create a team that will work hard and create the fantastic incomes we all want it will take about 1000 downline members.

Have I scared you or motivated you?
This is why I have said multiple times through the members area that this will take hard work, persistence and time to do.
But should you do this….. click the PTC sites most days to earn the $12 a month as a free member, use the earnings to join the money makers and the rest is used to promote your link….. do that and in two years you will have the full time income from this… you will only need to work one hour a day… tops… and your earnings will keep growing and growing so long as you promote and promote.

We are in business here, and it takes time to build a business.

Membership Update
Total Members – 2014
Total Members who have recruited – 82
Total members who have recruited more than 30 people – 12
Total members who have recruited over 100 people – 6

Look at those numbers…. to make the big income you will need at least 3 persistent people working with you…. I have 6 and considering there are 2000 members in this site…. all of which came from a start in PTC sites using about $40 in the first month…. it really gets hard to argue that I haven’t done enough to get to where I want to be….. and that at least 6 people are right behind me.

Regardless of how many people you have recruited (or not recruited) you are able to do this venture successfully as well.
It starts with checking your downline builder is filled in correctly…. then you click the PTCs for money… then join the first money maker… then promote, promote and promote every month using as much money as you can.

Remember TrafficHoopla and Home-Income-Team and the time those people put into their fantastic online earnings then ask yourself what you want and how hard you are prepared to work to get there?
