Welcome to “How To Become An Master, Using the of ”. In martial arts, there are certain principles used to achieve mastery. Bruce Lee used these principles day in day out and became one of the most respected and influential martial artists of all time.

His core principles used, for achieving such mastery with Kung Fu, were

  • Self discipline
  • Repetition
  • Dedication
  • Persistence
  • Action

After mastering the fundamentals he was then able to go out and expand his knowledge and training. Learning different styles to incorporate into what he knew. He later developed his own style of martial art: Jeet Kune Do.

A martial artist knows that they need to master the fundamentals in order to become great. Bruce Lee would not have been able to become a true master without following his principles and learning the fundamentals first.

Chapater 16: Action Steps

By on May 14, 2011

• Decide if you are going to use an manager (recommended).

If so, then find one and let them complete the following list. If not, then you will need to do these yourself…

• Setup your affiliate program.

Decide which affiliate software you wish to use and create an account, or buy and install the software. (If you have the free trial of FusionHQ you  already have this set up. If not give it a try, www.dlwmmm.com/fusionhq) Even if you are using ClickBank as an affiliate system, you may choose to use FusionHQ as a way to manage your affiliate tools and training.

• Set the commission levels for your different products, and write descriptions for each.

• Write your affiliate agreement, or modify the template if one is supplied.

Create a set of affiliate tools for your affiliates to promote with. Start with a standard link, then a couple of promotional e-mails and banners and expand  from there as appropriate. Add these tools to the affiliate system.

• Create your affiliate recruitment page. Remember to make it like a sales page. You are selling the benefits of your affiliate program. Include why they  would want to promote your product, what benefits there are to them, what commissions they can earn, what tools are provided, and what support  they will receive.

• Research and recruit. Find affiliates and get them signed up.

• Let them know what to promote, how and when. This should be part of your marketing plan—if not, then add it now.

The fewer variables that you can have in an equation, the more sustainable and passive your business can be (and the less chance there is for failure).

Being an for somebody else’s product can be a great way to get started with minimal setup. However, you are at their mercy.

As mentioned, I know many people who lost their income overnight by relying on these models. That was a huge shock for all of them.

Their commissions vanished overnight and there was nothing they could do about it.

That’s why whether you choose to be an affiliate or not, it’s best to be making money in a situation where you have more control.

I know many ‘gurus’ teach that it’s best to start as an affiliate, and in some cases they may be right. The majority of time though, I think they have it the wrong way around.

Become a product owner first, affiliate second. (See point 3 to understand why.)

2. 

Being a service provider could be anything from offering hosting, to providing copywriting or SEO services.

There is a lot of potential in this market, but be warned, it usually requires long-term investment of your time or money.

Services can be difficult (though far from impossible) to scale. For example, if you are a copywriter the only way you can take extra work past your limit is hiring more people to do the work for you.

Being a service provider can create great value for your customers and produce some excellent long-term income. However, it does require
long-term maintenance.
