It’s Not About The Money
ByIt’s true, it’s not about the money.
I think it was John Thornhill I saw post on Facebook
“It’s not about how many sales you can make. It’s about how many people you can help.”
It’s very true, although I have not made a post for a while I have still been keeping busy I do have to say the last two weeks I have taken some time off to relax and empty my brain (didn’t take that long to empty) but before that I have been doing my best to help people get started and pointing them in the right direction when it comes to list building and starting them earning online.
The feedback I have had from them all has been great and the feeling is better than any of the sales emails I get. It has been hard work at times keeping everything going at the same time but well worth the effort.
If they succeed then I succeed.
Now I have not and will not charge these people a penny for helping of course and I have been on call due to time differences sometimes at 8am and have even been helping until 2am and have also at times put my own work on hold.
I did this due to the fact that these people were proven action takers. It’s one thing to add a good subscriber to your list but I gave away a report I had written to my subscribers on the condition that they added me to Skype in order to get the download link.
I found this to be a great way to find some action takers and see if I could take them to the next level and in this process I have built pages for some of them even hosted for others and got one of them who has been learning and learning without doing anything to finally take some action and start building a list.
I would like to say a big thank you to you for letting me help you and I also would like to say a big big thanks to those that have helped me as although I have not much by my standards I know how hard it can be.
Who has helped you out most online??
Let me know below.

Hey James,
I bet your skype is massive now ha ha.
That’s a really good way to sort out the action takers, never thought about trying that out.
Who has helped me most online?
Well if it wasn’t for John Thornhill my journey of selling ebooks on eBay would never really have began 3 years ago.
But recently, focusing on Internet Marketing, I have to say Alex Jeffreys because he has helped me so much, and is always willing to go that extra mile too.
Cool post I enjoyed reading it.

Hey Sally,
Both John and Alex are really great guys and the
real deal when it comes to teaching people online.
I have heard nothing but good things about John’s
coaching and of course have been taught by Alex myself.
Talk soon,

Time out is great, re-aliging and re-planning too, it has to be done, and you will return with fresher ideas and renewed energy!
Many people have helped me the most, but without getting the sick bag out, I would say the friends I have met and got to know online have helped me the most, and of course having a mentor too, Mr AJ.
You have found your niche, I suggest you start a small coaching programme James, it will be well received.

Hey Sean,
I think everyone shuld take time out now and again to
save from burning out, it has helped me for sure.
Hope I have helped you along the way (just a small bit eh):-)
As for coaching I would love to as the satisfaction it brings
is great but it is also a lot of hard work maybe one day.
I take my hat off to the likes of John Thornhill and Alex Jeffreys who not only coach but go the extra mile too.
Talk soon mate,

Hi James,
I think this was a really smart Idea. It sounds like a good way to find out who is really serious and who are the procastinators.
Let me know if you come up with any other good ideas I can copy

Hey Brocha,
Hope the late night chats have helped you out a bit.
You were already doing great without my help so
cannot take the credit for your results, although
the page I made you seems to be creating a bit of extra
income for you.
Nice work,
James

Hi James,
I completely agree with you. It is not about the money! I still class myself as a newbie to making an income online. I only have one product that makes some pocket money, however what I have developed over the last 12 months is an awesome network of people that are like minded and an inspiration.
As you know right now I am involved in a blogging challenge that was created from a silly comment of mine in a forum. This challenge is taking up a lot of my time right now and was a bit of an accident, however I wouldn’t have it any other way.
The feedback I have been getting has been amazing, every that is on board has been talking about how they are meeting new people they would not have other wise met, they have been networking, meeting new blogs as well as people and having some fun blog hopping.
It is awesome watching these people connect all from a silly bimbo comment I made in a forum.
It IS about building relationships and helping people!
See you back here soon!
Cheers

Hey Jacinta,
I think you said it all in that one line,
“It IS about building relationships and helping people!”
I have seen your blog challenge all over the place and see that John Thornhill himself has sent emails about it and has it on his facebook.
Great idea nothing bimbo about it from what I can see.
Talk soon,

When starting out online, it is about the money. Most will start out in affiliate marketing and in which case your not really in a position to help anybody but yourself.
I found as soon as I was delving deeper into online marketing and visiting forums and networking with people I started to want to help people.
I have never charged a penny to help people, not to say I won’t in the future but for me, helping new comers to this industry does give me a feeling of self worth.

Hey Michael,
Very true it was about the money for me too,
it is and always will be a learning curve,
there is always something new to learn.
As soon as you learn it, you can let others know about it
by blogging about what you have learnt so in that way yes
you can help others when you start although it is not what
is on the mind of anyone coming into this business.
Thanks for the visit,
James

Hey James
I have just come for a visit to your site. How are you going?
Yes it’s Mark and I am following my students as they post on other peoples blogs. They don’t know that I am always checking to see they are getting results. I am passionate about helping them achieve and then they are able to make some money online exactly the same as I am doing. It is not really difficult as long as they are willing to put in the effort.
Always pleasing if I can see some of my students have posted comments. Keep up the good work.
Regards
Mark
August 16th, 2010 at 8:24 pm
Hey Mark,
Always good to have new visitors
so by all means send them this way.
I have to say you have been helping a
lot of people out and I am seeing more
and more of your students out there.
Another AJ success story eh
Cheers,
James

Hi James!
I’m one of Mark’s students and I’ve been visiting a lot of blogs over the past couple weeks. I’ve learned a LOT!
Your willingness to help others reminds me very much of Mark, love it!
Nice to “meet you” and I look forward to hearing more from you in the future.

Hi Lesley,
When I was doing a lot of commenting not
only did I learn a lot from other posts
but they also gave me ideas for new blog
posts of my own so that was an extra bonus really.
Thanks for stopping over and hope to see you back soon,

Hey James,
Good man!! Great to see you giving out the community so rewarding. Looks like it’s building you some cracking relationships and it’s definitely getting people motivated (judging by Rahman’s comment above!).
Bet your skype list is massive now pal!

Like anyone else, I also hope that one day, somebody could really help me achieve my online success. Even share their knowledge about things, but still maintain in helping them with their endeavors too. Just like a mutual relationship like partners, something like that.

Helping others is a noble purpose with great rewards. Many does not understand the fact that helping others builds trust and relationship, which then are important elements for one’s success.
