After seeing so many people do things that can have a negative impact on their internet business, I have decided that I want to write something about this topic. If this is the direction that you are in, then you will know what to do. First step: Don’t allow people to subscribe to your email newsletter on your website If you really want to make less sales every month from your online work at home business website, then don’t offer your visitors the chance to subscribe to your newsletter. Don’t try collect their name and email directly from your website. Don’t even think about doing this. Even if you already have an auto responder system up and running, make sure to buy non double opt-in lists from someone else. Keep spamming other people who have never really opted into your personal newsletter. This means that they never gave you their personal permission to email them. 2nd step: Spend all your advertising funds in one place Take your money that you have and spend it all in one place only. Put all your eggs in one basket. If this ad does not work out for you and you lost all your money, call it quits. Instead of testing different ads and seeing which ones bring in the best results, do the opposite. 3rd step: You know it all, right? If you really want to fail, don’t find a role model. When you have the chance to learn from someone who is a guru and wants to help you, don’t listen to them. Just try to do everything in your way and try to “reinvent the wheel” all by yourself. 4th step: Jump from one program to another Get your internal juices flowing and get excited about a brand new online business. Pay the fee to get started. Work it a few days and when it doesn’t work out like you wanted it to work, quit it. Then start looking for the next great web based business. Join that too, work it a few days and when that program doesn’t work for you, quit that one too. Repeat the same cycle over and over again. 5th step: Don’t write down any goals One of the best ways to fail online is to never write down any short term or long term goals. If you really want to fail online, don’t even think about writing your goals down. 6th step: Associate with negative people Another good way to fail on the internet is to take advice from people who have tried to make money online before but failed. If they tell you that you can’t make money online, then listen to them. They know what they are talking about. If your friends and family tell you that you won’t succeed, then follow their advice too. Don’t ever listen to a successful online marketer who is trying to teach you the same methods that they have been using to make a nice full time income on the world wide web. If you follow the steps above, you will reach your goal of online failure. If you really want to succeed with your own internet home based business, then just do the opposite. It is that simple.
