What I Have Learned Since Starting Online
Getting started online can be really daunting. There is so much information out there, where does one begin? Who are the reputable people to learn from? What are the right things to do?
You obviously want to achieve something and believe that being online is going to help you achieve your dreams or you would not be here.
I left my profession and trained to be certified as a life coach. People were saying – you should get online and promote your business.
Yay! What a great idea!
I didn’t know what I was doing, I stumbled upon so many ‘do this and you will get these amazing results’ schemes it almost made my head turn. And yes, I did initially fall for a few. Whip up this website in 30 seconds, sell this product make loads of money, get 10 000 page likes in 1 day – you know the ones I mean.
What I soon realised is that nothing happens that fast online. I have never met anyone that has actually been online for 5 minutes and made a million dollars. I have heard of people that have made a million dollars in 5 minutes but I can guarantee you they had been working towards that for many years.
I am not going to lie to you – it is going to take hard work, time and perseverance, but the payoffs at the end are worth it. There are going to be times you wish you never started and think about giving up. You may feel like you are talking but no one is out there listening. This is how everyone feels at times – you are certainly not alone.
Just keep going – don’t quit when you feel like quitting, it will be worth it in the end.
What made the biggest difference for me was working out the key fundamentals that were necessary for my success online. They are not complicated or hard to implement, they just take a bit of knowhow and effort.
I want your transition online to be as easy as possible. I want you to hit a home run with social media. I will be talking about this in my upcoming free teleclass – ‘The 5 Fundamentals of Hitting a Home Run with Social Media’ – where I cover the key structures you need to have in place if you want a firm foundation to build on.
I am not going to promise you that you will get rich quick or sell a million books. What I will promise you is that if you follow the steps I outline you will have success online. How much success is dependent on you!

Lorii,
Thanks for stopping by and I am happy to encourage you anytime!!
Love this Stacey – “Just keep going – don’t quit when you feel like quitting, it will be worth it in the end.” Never give up, thank you so much for this great reminder and your encouragement.
It is my absolute pleasure, Anastasiya!
Stacey, love this! There are so many people who promote and promote how easy it is to earn a living online…it is very refreshing to see the truth…that it takes TIME…great post!
I love this! Success does not happen overnight, it takes a lot of work! You will appreciate it more the more you work at it!
Yes, it takes some plowing, isn’t, but like you say, there is a pay-off at the end!
I do believe it is definitely worth it in the end!
” Just keep going – don’t quit when you feel like quitting, it will be worth it in the end.” This is so true!
It’s about time someone is willing to step up and say it doesn’t happen overnight that in fact it is time consuming arduous at times and frustrating. But sticking it out as with anything else has it’s payoff.
Thanks for the comment, Suzanne! Yes, there are payoffs for all the hard work!
If anyone can help people get started online, it’s you Stacey!
Thanks so much for your vote of confidence!!
Sounds like your online journey has been similar to mine Stacey! Hopefully we can both cut down the learning curve and help many people avoid the costly mistakes we’ve made . . . Thank you for sharing the message that being successful online takes hard work, but is so worth it! I hate it that so many people are still promoting quick and easy riches. I’m really looking forward to your teleclass!
Nope. Definitely no get rich get results quick schemes. Getting real results is the result of persistence day in and day out.
