Drat you! It worked - I came here and relooked at the product when I didn’t mean to! Well, I can’t say I was shocked - rather the article was just a straightforward summary and from what I can gather most marketers use a variety of approaches. Anyway, it was good enough for me to print it off (which is rare for me).
What I would like is an approach where I do not have to have my name out there to the degree that seems essential for these forms of money making on the internet. It’s not that I am shy, but simply that other personal and work committments make it unadvisable. Nevertheless, I would still like to find a successful online business, after trying and failing in a couple.
The way I see it you need plenty traffic to make any
money. Advertising seems to be the hardest thing
cause you can have everything else , without traffic
you have nothing. James
I agree … i have several low cost affs with resale rights..being a newbie ..don’t know how to upload nor were to market..tell me what else i need to market and build a list..eg software etc..don’t know how to set up landing page ,squeeze page etc i have a hard drive full of products including your affcashsecrets.. and no money..and no specific directions.
Makes sense.
Hi
First of all, congratulations on keeping things short and sweet. I do enjoy that format. Rather have 5 interesting pages with useful info than having to wade through 20 pages with 12 of them being ads in various disguises.
You have valid points and if people take them to heart they can indeed increase traffic and income considerably.
Well done. Thumbs up.
Don’t know ANYTHING about this affiliate marketing stuff!!
Derrick
I like the thought of doing all 3 methods of business building.

Derrick,one of the website that you was in i was to. She shut that one down when i emailed one of her friends. And know one got any money she’s back on line again. about your report i agree with some of it and you are right that affiliate isn’t the easyest to get into,but if you have your own website and have a op-in list there is money out there.
I have not made one cent doing any of these affiliate programs. I will tell you though I have personally spent alot money on them. From what I can see the people that make up these programs are the ones that make money. My advice to anybody looking at these programs is keep your real job. I have tried this opportunity 2 times and made nothing even with a list. I do believe that 98% of the people trying to earn a honest income from home online either p/t or f/t do fail.
Hello.. It was easy to read. The explanations were
plain and simple. Most of it was way over my head.
I know next to nothing about this Internet Marketing.
Cheers… Bill
All I can say is very rewording. Thanks Derrick and keep up the great work.
I have been doing just what you have recommeded a newbie do. I have begun with the affiliates, and ppc’s.
I have been grabbing up resale and PLR as well as software. The software is for my personal use and for free downloads on my site, http://www.yo-da-cash.com.
Years ago I wrote a book, never published, but will now be getting that ready to sell online.
Thank you for showing me that I am on the right track.
No one else has shown me just the steps to take as a newbie.
My site is being set up for the newbie, I will give reviews of ebooks, affiliates, free downloads, a newsletter, which will give me a list, and give the members freedownloads not available on the site.
Ok, I went through all of that to say once again, thank you for steering me and I am sure lots of others to the “formula for newbies” to make a living on the internet.

I agree with the report, but feel it doesn’t go far enough, unless it’s really just meant to be an advert for ACS (of which I’m already a member!)
Hi Derrick:
I just downloaded the report. I will get back to you as soon as I read it. I’m looking for any REAL help I can get. I am a reseller for Liz Tomey and share a sales page with her for her profit quickies program. I also purchased monthly traffic program from Bishop and Amy at MarketersSOS. I have been getting a resonable amount of traffic but not one sale yet! Yikes!
Anyway enough doom and gloom:) I will right back about the report soon.

Hi Derrick,
I like your spin on the Affiliate Product, Product Creation and Resell Rights combination - when you really think about it your formula makes a lot of sense! Thank you so much for sharing this report, it is greatly appreciated - I can now see some light at the end of the tunnel (hopefully it isn’t an oncoming train! LOL…)
I think I’d heard most of the info in your article before, but not all in one place and not as well presented. It made sense me and got me reevaluating my current position.
I have resale rights to a number of up-to-date eBooks and I haven’t been promoting them because I’m concentrating on a couple of membership businesses I’m doing well in but would like to do better.
Now I see I need to “strike while the iron is hot” before those eBooks lose their newness and become over marketed.
Good job Derrick!
Hi Derrick-
Just Read your new report, and I have to agree 100% -Multiple Income Streams is the answer, No doubt about it!
I do have a question though, why have you left out true
affiliate marketing ? By that I mean “Hard Goods” thru
CJ, Shareasale, Performics, Linkshare, Etc.
Commissions are guaranteed, no inventory required, multiple sources for the same product.
Commission %ages are much lower than info products, but the selling prices average considerably higher.
You can even use complete Store Fronts available from E-bay, Amazon, Shopster, Etc.
The information sounds the same. Someone points out the problem areas, for us newbies, furnishes everything that doesn’t work and comes up with the perfect fix. Their plan is the best. I’m sorry but it sounds like the same old thing. If someone could, or would just give the information straight and to the point it would help us, instead of all the double talk.
Interesting concept. If I understand right, you set up a low cost product and get affiliates to promote it for 100% commission. This builds a list of “buyers” that you can market to over and again… by an autoresponder and/or broadcast emails. Sounds like a good idea, and just off-center enough to be really effective (before everyone starts doing it).
I’m just wondering if “newbies” will grasp the power of this concept and learn what it takes to put it into action. I’d be interested to see the 4-step process.
I could not agree with you more. Great article. It goes to show that you have to work to make it online. Nothing will just drop into your lap. I know your feeling of promoting or buying and ending up eating the cost or time.
Thanks Derrick!
AWESOME!! Thank you so much, Derrick! What a great to-the-point Report! I am definitely putting my ‘new found’ knowledge into action immediately. Keep the fantastic information coming!
looks interesting, and different, so I want to learn more about how to implement the plan.
Derrick,
You made some interesting points:” What you may not realize is this: you’re not limited to just creating products, selling resell rights, or promoting other people’s products.
1. Start out selling low-cost resell rights products ($7 - $27)
2. Pay affiliates 100% commission to promote for you
3. Build a list of buyers and sell them high-quality affiliate products
4. Re-invest your cash into exclusive rights or create your own product”
This is all fine and good, but THE issue is traffic, preferably free traffic.
I know You’ll get to traffic,preferably free traffic.
Thanks for all the help You provide.

Very interesting article. You talked about the why but not really much about the how. As a newbee myself, HOW, is my main question.
I downloaded the report yesterday, read it over and then printed it and read it 2 more times before falling asleep. It makes a lot of sense BUT, I have absolutely no clue how to implement any of it.
Being disabled, money is always a huge issue. Whenever I spend on the net, I have to take it from money budgeted to pay bills.
Good Info in the report. A+
I wonder, why is it that so many of the products that are made available are re branded open source applications, or what some would call “black ops marketing”?. The report is IMHO accurate in the need for all three activities, yet it is also fair to assume that there needs to be a service, or product that is exclusively available to those on that elusively growing opt-in list.
There are many that claim that it is best to work that list, yet there needs to be a fresh product, or information to be shared on those E-Mail campaigns, or it is still simply requested spam.
Best of Success

Hello Mr. VanDyke,
Being honest and upfront is how you have succeeded and made a living online. Thanks for the report and hope to represent you as an affiliate shortly!
Best Regards,
JB
It’s always good to have this kind of insight from Derrick into the realities of Internet Marketing. This kind of truth allows all of us to understand and move things forward.
I like the blog format also. Where can I get one like this? Hint, hint.
Dennis
You might also consider the rebrandable ebook strategy.
With this strategy, folks receive no-cost ebooks that they can resell for 100% profit. They also get to place their affiliate links in the ebooks, so they are motivated to promote the ebook.
How does this benefit the Newbie? Because you capture their opt-in by controlling the rebranding software as a service.
Want to see this in action?

P. S.
About products, the rage is interviewing a “Guru” about their secrets and selling the recording of the interview as a “product.”
This seems to be a worthless strategy for Newbies. There is a lot to know, and a lot of infrastructure to master to become successful in marketing online.
And, the gurus are not going to reveal all that knowledge for $47 or $67 or even $97.
If you want to know what to do, be prepared to pay for the knowledge.
There is a personalized financial “Freedom Class” that offers a guarantee that you will make at least $66K after nine months or you don’t pay full price for the class. The cost of the Freedom Class? $3,000 for two days!
And, you better be prepared to pay for what you need to run an online business, i.e., autoresponder, shopping cart, credit card merchant account, and a way to let “gurus” with big mailing lists take the lion’s share of your profits for the priviledge of letting you be their JV Partner.

Hey great report. Makes a lot of sense. I definitely agree that the best way to make money is to implement ALL of the systems you covered. The way to make the most money is definitely with More Streams of Income.
Hey Derrick,
This report does a good job on touching on the high points of “just starting out”. This is a good start
to a more in depth product that I’m sure you’re already
in the process of creating. It also gives the newbie some things to look at and possible ways to do it.
All in all a very good, bare bones, no holds report
thanks.
To continued success,
Steve
I would appreciate more insight. The report was well laid out. Like others I have products with resale rights on my computer, but haven’t caught on to things like.. how to set up a product to download to others..may sound silly, but it’s important. Have signed up to a few affiliate programs and again (like others ahead of me), have managed to get some traffic, but not real sales. My clicking hand is numb. Help!!
The three main models that you critique are straight forward pros and cons. I tried them all to the letter. I remember working a lot of hours doing classifieds, seeing over 200 unique clicks daily go to the affiliate and maybe if his “system” did not crash I would see revenue, BUT all those unique clicks went to him and before I knew about auto responders, I realized he also got their names and addresses for repeat back end sales to his sites. I got a few sales and no repeat business. Well you tell it straight BUT more importantly you have an excellent model for every newbie to follow and retain those unique visitors and to build a profitable respectable business. I can’t thank you enough for your honest teachings and your insightful helpful techniques to educate me as I learn and earn for the first time. Tired of following others only to realize they are lining their pockets and emptying mine and 1000’s of others.
well this seems like you have something going on here something they had NOT told me , the method seems to be what they are all doing because that is what seems I have done just joined all these lists .So i can BUY all these recommendations.
And well it sometimes IS very tempting and I wanna buy some of them BUT that is the difference HUH?
Im the BUYER they the SELLER? DUH!!!
Hi Derrick,your report was interesting and I have been wondering about how to make my promotions efficient and more lucrative.You say that using safelists,traffic exchanges and so on are not worth it which is interesting because I have been looking into using these resources but I think you are right.I think resell right products are a great solution to not having a product.
I think you are dead on with this report. I have tried to do some of the following with the exception of creating my own prduct which is in the planning stage. Thanks for putting it all together, it hit the nail on the head for me.

Well, I’m just getting into all of this Internet Marketing, Affiliate Marketing, Re-Sell Rights, List Building,,,,,,,,,, etc. So, my head is still spinning. But, somewhere you have to put a stake in the ground and start moving forward, and this is the first concise article which I’ve seen discussing that. So, maybe the merry-go-round in my head will begin to slow and even come a stop soon!
Hi Derrick,
Wayne aka Coach Cashflow here.
The report is spot-on. The thing that I find particularly beneficial about your report is that it speaks to a concept that is not given nearly the attention that it should be given. Namely, the concept of a business model. Having a context for doing business is something that is foundational to success. As a Guerrilla Information Marketing Certified Trainer, I teach the concept of building your business within the context of a business model developed around profit centers. I look forward to your next installment.
Until we correspond again,

sounds tempting but it does show you what you really are doing in the process … isn’t it just like what you are doing??? you want people to buy a membership for the cost of a few bucks but will it really give them back there money’s worth??? ow come on… is it really that simple. if it is then lot’s of geniuses would have figured this scheme and they would have been richer than you can imagine. this is like a pyramid scam. no offense but it really does look like one and come to think of it … am i right? ^_^
I downloaded pdf and read it. I think the plan is good, but again how and where is the traffic coming from….
Whoever is at the top makes the money.
Hi,
I have purchased many programs and products and never figured out how to really promote and really get started. Your report was eye-opening! Now I need to find out how it all works together to finallu start making some money online!
Thanks,
Nancy
Your report was straight to the point. That’s what’s needed when your starting out, no BS just the facts.
Traffic is the main concern as a newbie, targeted traffic that isn’t go to cost a arm and a leg. Knowing how to get started is great but getting it in front of people is another story, which I hope you’ll cover soon. Great information please keep up the good work so we can all benefit from each other.
I found your 5-page report very insightful. It packed a lot of information into 5 short pages, and yet, was still an easy read. I hate extraneous fluff, so this was very nice.
When I came to the “do all three” solution, I found myself nodding my head in agreement, thinking, “I knew that.”
My next thought was, “Well, if I knew that, then how come I couldn’t put it together until just that moment when I read it in your report?” Hmmm, indeed!
The thing I have heard from day one when I finally got serious about making an online income, was “Multiple Streams of Income.” That’s is my goal.
So, yeah, I’m curious about this 4-step plan.
Thanks!
~cj aka kitfanc
I believe that there is yet another option, and that is combining offline and online traffic generating methods; i.e. personal contacts, word-of-mouth, conventional media, physical bulletin boards in well-trafficked areas, group presentations to like-minded individuals, professional groups, business acquaintances, recent college grads, recent returning service persons (military men and women, leaving the service for civilian life and seeking opportunities like the rest of us), and so on.
I think Seth Godin sort of put the correct spin on this issue in his book “Meatball SUNDAE” (Amazon dot com). He examines the paradigm shift in conventional thinking and offers some strikingly lucid examples of creatively approaching the new millennium in marketing (which is fast upon us all).
I’ll be interested in seeing what further development proceed from this discussion and from you Derrick.
Fred Holmes
Hey, your report made alot of sense to me. Looking foreward to more tomorrow.
It’s good information that all newbies should read, never take anything for granted
Derrick leads the newbie through a clear and easy ‘plan’ to make money online, the ‘right way’. He even draws a chart because a picture is worth a thousand words.
He’s the man! The internet marketing man!
Hi!
Thanks for the report. It’s true - it rather shocks you but you managed to sum it all up really good.
To be honest with you I’ve tried Affiliate Marketing and even step 1 of your plan i.e. Start out selling low-cost resell rights products ($7 - $27)but to be honest with you I didn’t even manage to do 1 sale. You still need a list and I’ve got adverts everywhere - paying and free.
I still haven’t given up - I’m still trying but I don’t want to spend anymore money now - I just can’t afford it, I’ve already spend too much. So much that I had to find a part time job which means that I’ve got less time to sit at the computer. I’ve even tried on line surveys but evertime I joined a company, I always got the same answer - “Sorry this service is not available in your area”. By the way I live in Malta.
BUT after all this, as I said before, I still haven’t given up.
Thanks again and to everybody’s success!
Miriam
Thanks, Derrick, for sharing your knowledge. We newbies need all we can get. I believe, however, that the primary need of most newbies is to be taught very explicitly the mechanics of internet marketing. We need the “bare-bones”, “no-fluff”, step-by-step instructions. That is why I am one of your affiliates.
Yep. Faced with the indecipherable instructions given to a newbie, a person looks at a treatise like yours and says to him or herself: This is from a another planet. I am off before I get zapped by a ray gun.
Case in point. I said to my 87 year old father, “Just fill in the form and we shall get going.” I went downstairs to make us both a cup of tea.
I returned with our beverage to see him staring at the same screen as when I left. No form filled. Stopped and befuddled by the first question. Password? Well, does he remember his password? What is your guess…? Actually, the form is not asking for your existing password. No. It asking you to make up a password before you start. BUT. It doesn’t say that!
So, here is a Chartered Engineer, completely out of his depth, not because he is thick, far from it, he is an inventor and capable of original thought which in itself is rare, no, he is simply flummoxed by the syntax. The same syntax that flummoxed me when asking a question of him when I was younger and seeking an answer. He approached every problem by reaching for his slide rule and went into mathematical gibberish… Point made.
Listen readers. Derrick VD’s Covert Affiliate Links is the mainstay of my business online. I should be lost without it and I recommend that you get it if you haven’t already. No affiliate link. Get it from Derrick. But what the “Newbie” needs is to make some money. Make some money and reinvest most of that in one’s own self development in, for example, marketing. You see, most people who are successful online are the rare breed who are successful at most things. Some are techies who have had to learn marketing but who, nevertheless, understand what needs to be done and the way in which it can be accomplished. Others are marketing geniuses who have outsourced the techie end because they have the resources. So, let us hear it for the rest of us…
This is what I would do if I have the resources to do it:
Set up a replicatable website that has the upsell, downsell, OTO, autoresponder series, payment processor and shopping cart built in, that is hosted and where personal information is overlaid by a menu driven form or forms. PayPal account email address for example. What is a PayPal account? Go here and get a free merchant account etc. And others too. Make it step by step with videos and explanations along the way. Then, build a strategy to promote such by explaining the options for advertising: safelist, pay per click, article marketing et al, the whole nine yards. Lead into a membership site and more advanced forms of promotion with, for example, a portfolio of other businesses that they might be involved with and so on and so on. Blogs for example. All step by step. Phew! But what else do you do? We are all leaving pots of money on the table by not appealing to the movers and shakers in the ‘Other’ world who are intimidated by the technology switch…
Exhausted by excitement at the possibilities.
Warmly,
Malcolm
Hi Derrick —
Just to clerify, Yes I am a NEWBIE. (Gosh, I’m starting to hate that word)
I thought your report was excellant, I can see the concept of the “funnel” that your going for. I can see estabilishing the “free traffic” from the affiliates that you recruit. Not sure where you get the affiliates from, but I am sure you have a solution. (Probably starts with CB?)
I am a little confused on the optins though. The affiliates are undoubtedly going to be sending people to their squeeze page first to build their list, aren’t both of us going to have the same customers on our lists promoting the same things to them?
ALso, without getting into HTML, which I know just enough to be really dangerous, How do you set this all up to work. I mean what’s the working part?
Say you are selling a resell rights ebook for $7. How do you set that up thru your FTP service with a secured “Thank-you page” that has an upsell or maybe a OTO?
I appreciate all the HONEST HELP that you are supplying us in your membership and your reports. That is one thing I liked when I seen your system at ACS.
You are going for “quick money”, but not going after the “get rich quick” schemes. This report and ACS both are estabishing a solid foundation to start an IM business with, and that is what separates you from the crowd!
Thanks
Gary
Hi Derrick,
It all sounds good until you’ve spent money on the products. Then try your darndest to find someone to
buy what you’re selling. Personally, I think it would be the best idea yet, just close down the Internet. There’s
just too much fraud and phony deals and the only ones making any money are the GURUS. They love themselves so much it’s enough to make a person barf. The best chance to be ripped off ever presented to the cons, liars, and
scam artists is this thing called “The Net” I’m not putting you in this same class as I know you really care
about your people.
Well done Derrick,
Short and sweet - right to the point.
As always valuable information for one
one who already possessed the “Secrets” of
making money online.
Affiliate Product, Product Creation and Resell Rights
combination - it’s without any doubt proven
formula to create steady income online…
But…
1. As a newbie it’s important to get just one string to
work for you continuously. Keeping focus ’till
you start seeing money is the main key to success.
2. for a newbie, starting dealing with 3 different steams
when one doesn’t know what is it all about, is wasting a time
(the most important asset in your business).
3. As a newbie, You have to learn how to implement all sound and valuable
information Derrick reveals here. You need more knowledge,
more details to complete the picture. Didn’t
figured out that part of business for yourself yet?
Then look for someone who will teach
you. I know that it worked for me…
Derrick,
I think the report is excellent. In fact, I wish I’d read it a year ago when I first started building my business online. Not only does it make it clear that there will be work involved in order to build a sustainable business (none of that “you’ll be rich next week!” b.s.), but you provide a succinct outline of all three business models. With the changeable nature of the internet, it is critical that we set up multiple streams of income. This is not something newbies generally consider when they are starting out (at least I didn’t) and they either focus on just one thing or spread themselves too thin trying to do every new tactic they learn or hear about.
What a refreshingly fluff-free report. This is the first time in a long time that I have read something (anything!) from start to finish on the internet without finding myself skimming or zoning out due to filler content.
I’m not sure what Fred was saying about traffic being “yet another option,” though. I’d say that his traffic generating methods are right on, but traffic alone will not bring profits. You can bring in a million visitors a day, but just the appearance of them is not an income stream. Without a conversion (sale, list opt-in, etc.) method in place, your traffic is useless.
I have a question regarding the “how,” Derrick. What are your views on attracting organic search traffic with a blog and then using that as a point of conversion? Do you consider that something that directly contributes to profits or should you cut out that middleman and find other ways to bring traffic to a conversion point?
Thanks for the great report. It really helped me re-focus my thinking - reminded me to get back to the basics.

Hi!
For me the biggest problem is to have enough time to start the business (4 children 1,5 to 7 year old, all boys) . But I tried some of the mentioned solutions, and I hate Google…
The easiest way to make money for me is gambling, John Morrison sportsbetting system. Its actually giving me very good results, 97% win. Or try “Michaels doubling stock.”
But I am curious about your 4 step-plan.
Rune, Norway
Hi Derrick,
The diagram at the end of the report indicates getting free traffic from affiliates. How do we get affiliates promoting for us? Doesn’t it make us dependent on them to drive us the traffic?
Hello Derrick
I have readed all the above comments and everything that needs to be said has been said.
I like the report very much , found it very interesting and informative. I like the way of the multiple stream incomes.
Thank You for the Report , can’t wait to receive and to read any future reports from you , Derrick
Cheers

I have to agree with you Derek. Building up one’s lists has to be a primary objective. Great to have a few front-end sales, but as they say the money is in the back-end and if one has a loyal list of subscribers, the possibility exists to gain repeat sales as long as they remain with you.
Your brief report encapsulates it all beautifully and I’d love to receive a copy of your 4 step plan for putting it all together.
Cheers
Dale
Well, Derrick what you say seems plausible along the lines of CJ John’s endorsement above.
However I am somewhat wary of paying out 100% on anything leaving me zero. Couldn’t we make it say 80%?
And while we are at it can I say that online marketing techniques/tactics seeme to be morphing quickly. The gurus presentations are getting slicker. Their eye candy graphics are getting better and adding video persuasion techniques makes their message more compelling.
This being said I would like to find a way to swim in the same stream within a cost managed environment. What I mean is: I don’t want to pay each and every guru USD 497 ad nauseum in the hope of getting on the racetrack and up-to-speed.
I want to ride a horse that is going to incorporate the latest techniques in opt-in pages, videos, popovers, WordPress and so on into one seamless but non hypey realistic bread and butter series of products that I can pay for as I go.
I mean I want to pay x for y and not on a monthly plan that automatically adds a payment to my card every month.
Hope we can work together!
Hal
OK…. i see where the Point is. Im quite new to all this and like all Newbies i was buying Products and Memberships. Advertising is allways a Problem for Newbies. Because they all Advertise the same Thing at same Time at same Source.
And in the End you telling us how the Big Dogs behind all fill there List. Because i think this is the Strategie that they use. Shame on you ;)you reveale there Secret!
So i see my newest Task will ge to set a System up that will fill up my Opt-In List, not easy but i am patient and i am learning fast.
Thank you for the Report, keep up the good Work(for us)

Hi Derrick
Good report but it is only an intro.
Internet/Affiliate marketing sounds simple but it is brutally competitive. Witness the recent launch of Players With Money. Great if you were invited to the pre-launch party (like you) and that is where the money is to be made.
The rest of us stand no chance as newbies. I was extra p****d with Alex when he closed the doors to build his own mailing list with traffic people like you sent him and presumably he’ll pocket all the cash when he reopens in a couple of months time and all the affiliate cookies have expired.
What everybody wants to know is the how to do it and how long will it take. I’ve been running hard for 4 months (full time) and have made all of $200 (far less than my expenses).
With regards to resell rights, those that I have looked at are either available for free elsewhere or so bad I wouldn’t want to sell them to anyone. Where is a good place to find them?
I really like your ACS system but as newbies I can’t believe we’ll make money promoting affiliate products like Ewen Chias and Tellman Knudson. I have one subscriber for 3 months of effort and a couple of sales.
So what’s the answer?
Well internet marketing is now a business. Whilst you don’t need lots of money to get started like any business you now need to invest in order to be successful. You need to pay others to produce copy, landing pages, websites, research etc. so you can produce enough, quickly enough to start generating revenue.
You cannot do everything yourself and there is too much to do. Invest $20,000 up front (if you’ve got it) and you might just make it provide you spend it wisely.
Just my opinion based on my last 4 months of experience. I could go on but boy would I like to work with you to come up with a system that takes away all the bullshit. Yours remains the best of seen but there are still a lot of blanks to fill in.
Very interesting, I’ve been working affiliate programs for a long time, so far very little success. Traffic and leads are the hardest part to maintain. Thanks for the information.

Hi, Derrick,
I think that as a statement of the bleeding obvious, this is a fine example.
The problem newbies have (and I am one, so I know) is that THEY DO NOT KNOW WHO TO TRUST. The number of times I have submitted this question to these phoney “I need your help, Arthur” surveys to receive not a single acknowledgement is part of the proof that NOBODY gives a stuffed bean about newbies - EXCEPT as a source of revenue.
Whatever a newbie gets, by way of free advice or bought advice is INCOMPLETE. Even all these wonderful “I really want to help the newbie get started” gurus do not give enough of the BASIC information that a newbie wants and needs.
Create a sales page, they say - HOW?
Create a download page, they say - HOW?
Set up your auto-responder, they say - HOW?
Make sure your payment button is linked to your account etc. etc. etc.
What newbies get, in general, is a recipe that, if it was for apple pie, would say, you need to get some apples, some flour, an egg or two and some water. Mix them all together and bake.
The newbie would then be offered an upsell that told him how to prepare the apples, another that told him what type of flour to use, yet another to tell him how to separate the eggs, yet another to tell him at what temperature to cook the pie, another to give details of “my SECRET ingredients guaranteed to make your pie better than anybody else’s” - the list goes on and on and on and on and the newbie NEVER gets a complete recipe.
I don’t think I am being unfair when I say that there is not a single guru out there who actually HAS a method that works (that they are prepared to teach) - but they all seem to have enough of the basic theory to be able to string newbies along until there simply is no more money to be squeezed out of them.
My comment is from the heart and it is that sort of response that I hope you were looking for.
Derrick, WOW - a clear plan of action… I can understand plus it’s simple enough that I can finally get started making money! I have read so much and purchased an unbelievable amount online but finally feel encourage that I can succeed with this plan you given in your report.
I am already an affiliate for your ‘Affiliate Cash Secrets’ now I intend to do exactly what you wrote in your report… Thank YOU!

D. Vandykes,
First of all I must say sorry to you by taking long to reply your mail.
I’ve being bussy in college doing my Masters Degree in Business Administration.
I will read your documents careful and follow all what you have set for us.
for sure I am poor and I need changes in my life.
African life is like hell,someone needs to work hard so as to make changes in his life.
I believe you are part of that important tranformation.
I remain God bless you!
Michael.
Well first thank you for the invitation to look at your blogs and make comments on them…
They are straight to the point no bull but NOT for the inexperienced Internet users. Its easy to forget or overlook that there are newbies out there who have no idea what to do once they have purchased a business opportunity.
Most instructions are way over their heads… There is a need to talk basic instructions for them them to understand.
Regards
Denise
i DON’T HAVE A WEB SITE YET BUT WHAT YOU HAVE SAID MAKES ALOT OF SENSE mY TROUBLE IS I WOULDN’T NO WHERE TO START SO I REALLY NEED A STEP BY STEP GUIDE TO ALL OF THIS: ANY SUGGESTIONS!
Derrick,
I love your concept, I’d like to raise my status to your most supported level. The thing is I haven’t done anything as yet apart from work and taking care of my six year old special needs daughter……all my time is taken up reading emails from the 20 or so companies promising me a brighter future and on Teleseminars, watching E-Books & DVD’s to ever have the chance to implement anything. This means I’m still in the review stage, if someone can hold my hand and show me a step by step procedure for making money online I would really follow such, but it would have to be after May 8th.
Your probably finding that our entire society has ADD, one needs some support infrastructure and a demanded focus in a consistent manner to succeed, at least this is where I am. If you can help I will be deeply appreciative and I feel I could give a lot back to your group and society once I got of the ground.
Thank-You Kindly &
Thank You for asking for this feedback!
Jim
This was a good and informative first third of a report. I hope the promised balance of it is delivered as stated. If so thanks for being perhaps the first to do what he says he will since I became involved in internet marketing.
Gary
I found the five page report very informative, and look forward to further information on it.
Hi Derrick
A no nonsense straight to the point, easy to understand report. Newbies in particular need to have a business model and step by step plan of action to have any hope of succeeding in IM.
I’ve been involved in IM for approx 6 months now and had no plan or model to work by or anyone there for guidance. So I bought, read, watched and read heaps of stuff which just made me confused (and info overload). I was learning lots but didn’t know what order to put it all in. Subsequently not putting any of it into action. I still need a SOLID plan of action so I don’t distract myself because I think I’m not doing thing right.
It’s disappoints me to see products supposedly ‘made specifically for the absolute Newbie’ but is written in gobbledegoog that only an intermediate or experienced marketer would understand.
Thanks for caring and keeping it straight and simple.
Best wishes to you and all the Newbies out there
Dear Derrick,
A great report - well written, clear and best of all it makes a lot of sense. I’m a newbie looking to see evidence of at least “some” income coming in from selling affiliate products to give me confidence to build and build on that - so far it has proven elusive.
There’s something in your report about “traffic” that has just clicked - I like it.
Best regards.
Karen.
Hi Derrick,
Loved the report.
Short, concise, to-the-point information (as usual)!
Like many others, I have a harddrive full of Resale Rights products (not to mention PLR, etc) and would love to finally be able to have the information that “explains” how to go about monetizing those products I paid good money for.
I’m really excited to read your 4-Step report as I know it will really drive the point home (as all you products do).
Thanks for being one of the rare “good-guys” that can be trusted. I really appreciate the fact that you do care about your customers.
this seems to me the most sensible informarion i have received yet. for someone like me who is living on a shoe string it seems to be the most viable. i don’t have money to buy every model going . i have to choose carefully and make sure i am not wasting my time and money as i am a pensioner.
Hi Derrick,
Sometimes the straight facts are not what people want
to hear, but by laying out what can be done, and what not to do, you have the tools to make smart choices.
I am starting out myself, so any ways to make products
more profitable and efficent are what I am looking for.
Please make available your 4 step plan to succeed, as I am sure it will be, as all your advice worthwhile and complete.
thanks for all your input and direction.
Rich C.
In my oppinion this report gets straight to the point.It is very well written and should give people a way to start up at least a plan.As to people getting burned by false promises of commisions.Let them be warned that I can see a day where their are a lot of sites that will go up that will expose certain marketers by way of having a survey set up and a blog that really gets circulated around.This way the good programs will start to get separated from the bogus ones more quickly before the bad marketers have a chance to draw more people into their money trap.Anyone reading this should never worry about Derricks programs or any site that he promotes because he really researches before promoting.But anyone could get burrned once because it’s almost impoosible to tell if a new marketer is honest or not.This is why it is best to stay with someone that has been around for awaile and that you trust.
A very good report. I like that it is short and to the point. I get many emails offering this video and that video and I usually just delete them. Who has time to watch this 20 minute video, that 30 minute video, etc. Give me a PDF which I can download and scan through it to decide whether I should take more time and delve into it further. I enjoyed reading the comments from other wannabees on your blog.
Just the stuff for Newbies - there is such an overload of information, marketing tips, so called helpers, ‘earn easily and quickly’ etc offers, how does one get to know the genuine from the scams? Most often one only finds out after joining and there are always the costs that are not mentioned prior to that commitment, even when it is ‘free to join’!!
Your report certainly gives positive info and direction for taking the first step on the right path but further help is needed. Just knowing what all the internet terminology means would be a great asset but positive direction from someone who is now earning on the internet is an absolute must. This also can be a gamble - who is offering genuine help?
Genuine guidance would ensure that more newbies would be encouraged to continue trying instead of giving up.
They should all be directed to you!
Thank you for your concern for ‘all those newbies’.
Derrick
As a result of reading your well presented report, my comments as to the difficulties for a newbie are as follows:
1. How to get a list to send my emails to. Even though the report says “Get other people to build your list!”, I don’t think that is the answer without the help of some software that intelligently collects this for you and I am certain that this is where the newbie comes to the crossroad between success and failure.
2. The other thing about sending out emails is, how to get the recipient to open and read them. Doing all of this one by one is too time consuming. It takes hours to collect them without some automated software set up, and then we must consider that out of one thousand emails, statistically, only 10% may open and reply without being certain of a purchase.
3. How to set up a landing or squeeze page, in fact, I don’t even know what they are. What I need is someone to actually show me, not tell me, how to do this … step by step …there always seems to be that “missing direction or link” that disables me from going ahead because funds are limited and I do not agree with these MLM radical ideas that unless you are prepared to spend your food money and not pay the electricity etc., you are not serious about making money. I find such reasoning depressing and unrealistic.
4. Affiliate marketing as I see it, should be successful but again, without the knowledge where and how to send them - leads nowhere. If all of these methods presented work, then I do not see why affiliates need to pay out of their pocket. It seems to me that
5. a) an affiliate is like a messenger or a glorified copy boy, who incites others to purchase something from someone else other than himself. The messenger, if the sale is successful gets a small percentage.
6. b) the prime company, by charging for the product as well as the affiliate for the privilege to sell their product, makes money twice on the same product. On top of that, the affiliate has extra charges for sites and server membership. It all seems unrealistic and all odds are stacked against you. I need to be able to see something better than that because my funds, and bills must come first, do not always stretch as far as I’d like.
7. Despite all of these oppositions, I shall continue to search, learn and hopefully – one day – find the means for making money via the internet. I am beginning to think that we newbies should form some sort of co-op where we can pool a small amount of money regularly and with the total funds raised, approach a programmer fresh from Uni and with his/her help, discuss what to do in order to succeed. Just a thought, why not contact me directly on my private email address paulitza at hot.mail dot com. I’d love to hear from you personally if only to learn from each other.
Derrick VanDyke, I’d like to thank you for caring about us newbies.
Derrick,
You’re articles and blogs are always full of useful information. This one is good but the question of how to get traffic is still there. The system that you wrote about will work if you can just generate the traffic to get it started.
This all sounds great Derrick, but how do I go about setting this all up? I need some details.
Thanks,
Gloria
ResellResellers.com
Dear Derrick, I forgot to mention something. Edward Lomax raises the point of paying affiliates 100% commission. You’ve lost me … if you pay an affiliate 100% commission, you wouldn’t make any money. What’s the point in that? Yes, you refer to the building a list of “buyers” that you can market to over and again… by an autoresponder and/or broadcast emails. Sounds like a good idea, and just off-center enough to be really effective (before everyone starts doing it). Again, you’ve lost me because of the “autoresponder and/or broadcast emails” … what on earth are we waffling about now … this is exactly the thing that leads us nowhere because things are not explained properly where all of this actually fits in. This autoresponder and/or broadcasting then depends on a software to which the affiliate has to lash out some more money. All in all, as I see it, expenses are greater than income …
Lets be realistic, who pays anyone 100% to start out with? Where is the payer’s profit? I suppose this is the setback of having been into book-keeping and accounting in my younger days … has anyone else have a comment to this?
I’m just wondering if “newbies” will grasp the power of this concept and learn what it takes to put it into action. I’d be interested to see the 4-step process.
Hi Derrick
The easy part is getting the tools and system worked out then comes the stopper getting customers.
Hoping to get it all working
Dear Derick,
This sounds very feasible.
My only concern is that after a month in the spider web marketing system, over $100 in Ad words, CGI kicking in the $10 a month, Direct Matches and over ten leads generated thru Google, I haven’t made a dime.
I want to make this work and despite many gurus assumption that the newbie just doesn’t have the proper mindset, I persist and want to make it work.
I don’t want to keep pumping more money into this system if I don’t see results within the next month.
Bottom line, the most frustrating factor in IM is not getting a sale quickly.
Hope this helps,
Carlos
The report is so true. What is most beneficial about this report is that it addresses to a very overlooked idea. It is a ‘business model’. Knowing what your business is going to do is the path to success.
Hey Derrick, Hope all is Well mate
The corner of my eye just caught what Tim Johnson said,
I too am a newbie and I too think that what Tim said is very relevant …from a newbie’s point of view.
Of late I have been looking at PPC stuff and reading up on Adwords and how I might consider going about getting into it, but it really is a dangerous game to get into if you don’t know it ” inside out ”.
I too have grown little tired of looking for ways to get that ” free traffic ” .. hence my dabbling in PPC stuff .. But I do know for a fact that persistence is the key ‘’ always ‘’ without moving from one thing to the other , if you can do things without hopping all over the place you will begin to see results, be them small, but you will see them.
Your report Derrick as I see it is way to mild and or kind in its description, almost put in a euphemistic way as not to scare people away but I know that was not your purpose. I happen to know that ” you ” are one of the few successful online marketers that ” truly help the underdog ” but that report sheds little light for the newbie on the subject of ‘’ IM Realities ‘’
There are many aspects and complexities that need to be taken on board before money can be made online … yes, of course some people come up with products without doing the ” necessary market research ” before hand and other people don’t work at it and or stick to one thing at a time, so see no end results to give them that ” proof ” it really works. There are various reasons why many fail and that report only touches the surface .. there are other factors, many other factors …keyword & market research for me is the most important aspect and or area that needs to be covered before anything ..but even this can be very complicated … as I say there are so many pieces that need to be put into place that any newbie if they really knew would run a mile, this is a subject that has no ”kind short cuts” but it seems many online marketers give the impression that there are quick ways to go about it because if they told you how much work was really involved they wouldn’t sell any of their money making products.
I have talked with you personally Derrick and even though I think your report is way to kind and almost polite in it’s angle about the realities of IM .. I stand behind you for one reason and one reason alone..
” I can trust you & know I am on the right track ” … this for me is the most important thing.
To all the other wonderful people that have commented, I say, what ever you do as in Life itself …. you have to first ” trust ” and know you are in the right place before you can ” confidently ” begin to grow.

When you are promoting a affiliate program you are also creating backlinks that benefit the persons website you are promoting. Their page rank will increase, and they will nab all the email addresses.
So of course if you want to succeed you should create your own product, and have affiliates promote it.
OR use a product with private label rights and modify it so it is truly unique. Add fresh graphics, and volia! you have your own product.
Lotta good that will do you without TRAFFIC. Getting traffic can take time, but their are ways to get it instantly. Pay Per Click (PPC) is a excellent way to do this. Make sure that you capture your visitors names and email addresses so you can contact them in the future - no sense in wasting the traffic you do get.
You laughed at traffic exchanges, but it is a way of getting traffic easily, and for free. If you are starting out I would give them a go. Once you get more experience you will no longer have a need for them.
In closing I would recommend:
1) Build your list. This is critical to your success.
2) Sign-up to a private label rights membership website. This will not only give you products to sell, but lots of information on building your online business.
(by the way plr videos are HOT right now!)
3) Focus on getting traffic to your site. Without traffic your site might as well not even exist. When your confident enough try ppc. Until then build backlinks. Their are many, many ways of getting traffic, study them, and try them out. Most common ways are forums, and comments on blogs. Viral methods such as videos, and ebooks are also excellent methods.
with Perserverance, determination, and by working smart you can succeed at internet marketing.

Read your article Derrick and allthough it seems to be great advice it still leaves newbies in the dark as to how to put all the pieces of the huge “puzzle” in place. Most newbies such as myself just aren’t computer literate enough to really design a good website inexpensively therefore we find it hard to get a site up and running much less linking affiliate sites and products to the site to be effective. Whats realy needed is someone who is willing to layout a do it by the numbers system at no charge so newbies have a chance to actually get up and running and making some “Immediate Money” so that they can then invest in other products or professional services to truly become professional themselves and run successful Internet Businesses. Thank You as always for the opportunity to learn from someone of your caliber of knowledge and success.
Well thats all great information but…
How many newbies do you know that can now go create a website, make or insert a premade sales page into that website, make or insert a squeeze page into it, how do we do a shopping cart, make order or pay here buttons, leave your email and name here buttons, how do we set up a auto responder and make it function properly, how do we add pages yada yada yada???…
Dear Derrick thank you for your report. It’s so realistic and helpful. I didn’t know that it was that easy for affiliate commissions to be stolen. I wish there was a way for an affiliate to avoid that.
Derek’s blog entitled the “Ultimate Business Model For Newbies,” was an eye opener for me. Promoting an affiliate link online or contacting people on a warm marketing list are not the only way to build a business. Information provided by Derek in the Affiliate Cash Secrets has certainly opened my eyes.
Keep up the good work Derek!
Melvin
This makes sense and will solve a traffic issue…
I….love it, what a system. Derrick I have been debating for 2 weeks what guru/mentor to choose.
After reading the report your the choosen one…Let’s get busy.
Marion Moore Sr.
Thank you Derrick for providing me with your free report.I read it and learned lots from it.
Hello Derek,
I’m Ray, I live in the Southern most part of Texas and it was around 1984 that my wife and I were in Corvalis, Oregon. It was late in the year and we were unloading in Sacramento, California from there the dispatcher sent us up I-5 through Redding, Ashland, Medford, Eugene and finally Corvalis to pick up a load of Christmas trees to bring back to Texas.
It was there in Corvalis that we met this nice friendly young couple that opened the doors to their home, not knowing us from Adam. That is when we realized that not only were we visiting God’s country we were also in the presence of some mighty fine people.
After that, I quit driving and started supervising a Golf course, I was making a little money but no benefits. then in 2002 I started in construction, then came the housing CRASH where I suffered a very painful financial downfall. Now for the past few months I have been looking into a possible internet business.
I have been reading a lot about the opportunities that ClickBank, Commission Juction and others have to offer, but to advertise takes a lot of money which I don’t have.
Then I came up to your “Piggy Back Traffic System”. “PLEASE DO NOT THINK THAT I KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT INTERNET MARKETING, REMEMBER (”TRUCK DRIVER, GOLF COURSE WORKER, CARPENTER”) I have been reading that Pay Per Click can be expensive, if you don’t have capital you’ll go broke in two shakes, all the others also take money, work, trail and error, article writing (which I can not write) and lots and lots of hope.
I saw your critique on the diet ad page which proves to me that “If you don’t know what your doing you are sure to fail”.
I am going to read all your articles and I will send you some honest comments. I am very interested in the “Piggy Back System” but I cannot afford it right now, even if you tell me my heart will jump out my throat
and my hands will start to sweat, I just don’t have the means. but can I respectfully request that you hold a copy for me? It will take me a little while but when I have you’ll get it. I’m not trying to be a cry baby, Im just stating fact.
Please let me know if that is possible. Again My name is Ray Garcia my email address is fritto@hotmail.com
Thank you so much for your kind attention on this matter.
Hello Derrick,
It has taken me a year and a half to learn what you stated this this report.
If I could have read this report a year and a half ago.
Just maybe I would be a little more successful today.
Internet Marketing changes oh so quickly in a WINK of an eye. My advice is follow all three methods and save your self some time.
The report was very informative overall and pointed out the problems of various marketing methods to generate money.
Further, it gives a good solution.
However, it falls short on implementation.
First, and foremost, one must be able to attract affiliates. (I gather that the affiliate prospects would be attracted to the 100% commissions). Even with 100% commissions it will still be hard to get the affiliates to send you good solid traffic leads.
Believe it or not, most affiliates will not and usually do not do marketing for you and certainly not newbies.
Surprised?
The reason for this is simple. They either do not know how to market and where to market or they give half hearted attempts at marketing the product(s).
They use old methods of marketing that may have worked in the past but no longer produce anything.
An example of this is safelists such as BusinessWorldList which used to be very good at one time is now nothing more than everyone puking on each other and automatically deleting the puke off.
To me, ideal marketing is the same as if I was to be a door to door salesman.
I go knock on the door. The person opens the door and I give them my sales pitch. If I have a good product, a great price, seem enthusiastic and some what trustworthy they will usually buy from me.
BUT…..In Internet World the scenario plays out like this:
I go knock on the door. They excitedly open the door and pitch me on their great product, etc. I go to the next door and the same thing and then another and another. We do it all day long with no one buying anything from anyone all in the hope of getting a sale!
Ideally…..Internet Marketing should play out like a TV commercial. You simply hit the mute button and ignore or change the channel if you are not interested - ALL WITHOUT MUTUAL PUKING ON EACH OTHER!
But…..if you like the product or service you buy it.
Derrick, if you have the solution and and have produced real results and an easy way to implement it, then I am all eyes.
Thanks for the report
Vincent
The report I feel is good sound advice that most new folks aren’t able to see given the daily barrage of the lastest variation of whatever the theme of the week happens to be.Building a soild foundation by a patient steady process makes sense from the standpoint that the most reasonable approach to a steady income is to build a customer base one can serve and be compensated for.And allowing others to make the most for their efforts(compensation)while helping you build a customer base seems win-win for all concerned.Nice to hear a reasoned voice for a change
thanks for the insight.
Derick, thank you, well said. I need all the “real” traffic help that I can get. I am looking forward to additional information.
Wil Wooten
Derrick;
Thank you for giving me the information that as a newbie, nobody else has ever said. That I need to do all 3 types of businesses to make it in the online business. I thank you for your help and honesty.
I tried the affiliate marketing, spent about 15 times what I made in sales on GOOGLE ADWORDS. I really need someone to show me step-by-step how to make real money online. A lot of information I have purchased over the last several years is “over my head” (not understandable for me) It would be real great to finally stop losing money online and learn how to make an online income instead.
As Richard, I am searching for a plan that will finally help me making money.
I have read your “The Ultimate Business Model for Newbies” and I got some point that I can wait to practice. I will sent you the information as soon as I get succes with your tips. Thank you.
Excellent report Derrick! I have been using all this techniques but never made more than few bucks… per year! with my own products. I think I felt where you just said most of us fail, to promote and keep driving traffic to my sites… I even used web 2.0 but after quite short time I saw that social networking is just waste of time… Building lists… another hard thing, as people don’t want to buy from you, and now even don’t want good info, as f r e e info is all over the net for any subject in the world! I have a 5 year old site, with good info, for collecting peoples subscriptions and I only got around 40 people there.
So, TRAFFIC is the BIGGEST problem for all of us. Do you have a solution fior that?
Thanks,
Teodor
The blog really highlights the pitfalls in each of the three ways to Earn Online. You have described it rightly. Also your final solution is good.
But for newbies it would always be a good help from Experts and experienced persons like you, if one or two copy paste type ready made solutions are spoon fed with complete Traffic solutions.
As you know most opportunities often turn out to be a SCAM. Once a newbie starts Earning some Income his/her morale will boost up and this can lead him to overcome his fear/resistance and venture in a big way in online opportunities.
This are my true comments based on my personal experience as a newbie - I have just been frustrated after joining/buying different online schemes only to realise that I am unable to make a breakthrough. Such incidenses can be avoided if the E books/ schemes also have one or two ready made solutions and not just a bookish guide, taking us round the bush and leaving us nowhere. It should be a WIN-WIN situation . A little sacrifice by experts/leaders can help newbies like us to make some money, and get our Blessings also for the help!
derrick hello
the report was right on time ive had a lot of trouble making any money and theres so many things to do for one project that three or four has got me all twisted.i think these methods may prove to be a good place to restart
thanks a bunch

Derrick VanDyke is one of the few individuals you can actually TRUST in Internet Marketing…from experience, I personally know that Derrick has integrity and actually cares about making a valuable product that works! Everything Derrick produces is TOP NOTCH because he has passion for what he does - Ever hear the slogan Love What You Do and Do What You Love? Derrick has a deep-rooted passion for Internet Marketing. The Ultimate Business Model for Newbies is superior because Derrick understands how the process works and he presents the Getting Started steps so anyone can do this and make money.
Great information Derrick!
Enjoyed reading “The Ultimate Business Model for Newbies”. This has good information that I will be putting to use right away. I think anyone, that is somewhat new in the internet world and learning about ways to make money via the internet, will benefit reading “The Ultimate Business Model for Newbies”. Thanks and keep up the great work!

Derrick;
That’s great, it’s something a lot of the new members in my site would be happy to get. We all need to stop banging our heads against the wall and start making money.
The plan you propose for setting up an internet business
sounds quite sound and do-able to me.
Problem is in being able to understand,interpret and put into action, the Language of internet business.
I would like to give it a go.
That’s true. Have been trying (and failing) for 4 years now to follow someone’s “program” without success. Not even a break even in any of them. Thought I had a winner with GDI, RWF…and still can’t drive traffic to it.
These five pages are clean, neat, and orderly as well as factual. Now what? Thanks for the information.
A very interesting report on combining three individual systems into one, very easy to implement, business model. Derrick has effectively demonstrated his ability to take a relatively complex subject and explain it in such a way that it actually makes some sense. (Bout time somebody did that)
I’ll look forward to reading more of Derrick’s writing in the future.
Hi Derrick,
I have your ACS and am an affiliate. Love the program tools in order to market products - and the article is right on - you have to “diversify”. I have been heading down that road - but organization is difficult for a newbie. Anyway - loved the report - more depth would be great-as you know the major blocks for newbies are TECHNICAL.
Look forward to more - your info is always good.
Ok Derrick.
I get you, and that is pretty smart. Sounds like what is being done at the 7dollaroffers website. What would be cool though is to take the “newbie” through a template “system” that would get him to do this without the html/php/ stuff.
Because, it the newbie is NOT a programmer, he still won’t do it because he is still not comfortable with outsourcing and JF stuff.
My “2 cents worth”

That was pretty good info. I never realized that it can be easy if you really know what you are doing. What products do you recommend? Thanks,
Erlanger Abadilla
You say: Here’s the 4-Step Plan for implementing “The Ultimate Business Model For Newbies” Where is it? I cannot read it. I downloaded it and still cannot read it. I would be grateful if you could send me more details about this matter. Thanks Paul
I am an oldie-newbie or a newbie-oldie. Like so many I’ve been plying the net trying to make a buck, but I am my own victim. First I am a techo dummie, and next, I am a sucker for hype, being an ex-salesman, I admire a good sales talk, but that’s been my down-fall, so far.
I have info coming out my ears from all the things I’ve gotten myself into.
IN addition, when I decypher a bunch of words, words, words, I soon get lost, do this, do that, go here, go there, and then come back and do this until etc.,on and on.
I learn by graphics. On top of that I have a hearing problem that makes it difficult to understand most of those who talk, not volume, just clarity. And most certaily aren’t teachers.
I agree with most of what you say. Do I sound whinny and/or discouraged. I’m not…have not given up. Overwhelmed I guess would be more accurate. Thanks. Just sounding off. CJ
Great report Derrick, and for some of us the idea of getting more in-depth diredctions for some of the steps is really importasnt. Looking forward to seeing more.
Hi Derrick
For some time now I have read all information you send to me. I always think it is great stuff - but I am really new to the internet business and don´t know yet how to take action. Your step-plan is great for sure but I (and most newbies) would need help with all the details.
Thanks anyway / Anna

It’s good to get this type of info for free - thanks Derrick - you ROCK big time!

It is amazing how the ‘gurus’ charge a mint for their how-to’s but you give the same information for the download.
As newbie (I’ve been doing it for 5 or 6 years but still a newbie) marketers, this kind of information can prove priceless. It is only up to us to decide how we are to implement it.
I especially liked the recommendation to reinvest your initial earnings to ensure the increase the business. Too often, the newbie will take the money and run, forgetting that they need seed money for their next product/promotion, and then wonder why they are not succeeding online as ‘promised’. The promise is only good if the newbie will use a little common sense.
I personally want to thank you for all of the advice and training you provide us. I can think that you do it as a labor of love of seeing others succeed. You can take great pride in your endeavours.
