After setting some campaigns I realized that this is going to be a HUGE business, and as such, I must treat it well. I decided to stop and learn. I decided to stop and set the best infrastructure I can. What does this mean?

• I read some eBooks about affiliate marketing.
• I took a real off line about spirituality in connection with money and business; we learned what are the fundamentals that every new business needs.
• I planned my steps ahead – some call it – “Business Plan”…

Now I am ready.
Now I will continue with setting campaigns and help surfers worldwide to find what they need best.

It is not a cheerful thing to do, closing a company that you and your partners worked thousands of hour to make it a huge success.

BUT, one should also learn how to say good bye and continue with life.

Although we got very good responses to our pilot service (www.uniknet.net) and great feedback to our presentation at TWS2007 event, we had no success in raising money. Unfortunately, After 14 months of full time self funds operation we have reached the point where we can no longer continue to work on our personal funds.

Eventually people can’t work without money forever. Next time we will develop the money generated features first.

Happy customers & users (which we had) cannot help if they don’t pay. Happy customers who pay and recommend others to come and pay as well can make the entrepreneurs very happy

What now? next post for this Q…

Every business must have GOALS. Goals give you motivation, they show you the way. If a ship goes out from the harbor but doesn’t know where it aims, it will arrive nowhere. A business, similar to a ship, must have a destination. When you reach a certain destination, you should set another one, and another one, and so on. There are three ways to set goals:

1. What I know I can get – maybe I even already have it.
2. What I think I can achieve – by setting a good plan I believe I can get it.
3. What I desire for – what makes the fire in my belly really blaze.

The first two options are not good, these options won’t take me to real new heights. The best way is to set goals that thrills me, makes me excited. BUT this is also the scariest way…Now, let go back to my goals. Right now I yet do not have even one running campaign. I set goals for the coming year. I will write them here periodically, the first goal is set to be for the end of next month (November), and it is:

“30/11/2007: I am so excited and happy now that I earn (profit) of $100 daily in my new Internet marketing business!”

You know what, this realy makes me happy and excited. I am going to work now.

“If I had eight hours to chop down a tree, I’d spend six sharpening my axe.”

Most of the times I do the same, I read a lot to learn the subject before doing anything.
That said, it’s been a while that I am reading eBooks, blogs, forums and so on in order to know as much as I can about affiliate marketing. It feels like I know a lot (remember theoretical knowledge only), but for now I just spent money and did not earn a dime. I feel like it’s time to deliver, to earn, which mean, it is time to start working.
I did not find a single tutorial that tells you step by step what and how one should do in order to begin. Maybe I will write it myself one day, for now I have to write my plan myself.
Today, I will set my goals for the coming six months, after that I will set the plan (a short one) to achieve these goals, the plan should be almost like a task list, so I will be able to get up every morning and I will know exactly what should I do. After all, watching my inbox (mail), or reading more eBooks, will never earn me (or anyone else) money…
Bye,
Daniel

Lately I have decided that I want to create additional sources of income. My own decision was to start a new venture (additional to iGiza). This time the main goal is to earn money using all the methods and economic models which the internet enables a person with a strong desire in the middle of the year 2007.

This blog is about many things: the Internet, money, making the world a better place, environment and more.

I hope it will be interesting to you as much as it will be to me .
