Affiliate marketing often presents us with action steps that we don t know how to accomplish and may not even want to do them. Some of the things many of us put off are making a video, making a voice recording or writing a sales letter. Your difficult steps may be different. Of course all of the above can be outsourced, but, sometimes money could be a factor in outsourcing and sometimes we feel that we just need to do that particular task to get a better handle on what we are doing. We need to develop an affiliate marketing mindset.
When tasks look like they area beyond my ability or just to difficult I like to remember a saying by Henry Ford. Henry Ford left us a lot including this saying. “If you think your can or you can t, your right.” I have seen about three different wording of that statement and all carry the same thought. If you are convinced that a task is to difficult for your there is a way above average chance that it is. I have received advice that when we are considering a difficult activity difficult because we have never done that or we don t have any training in that area look the activity over closely and say to yourself that looks possible I believe I can handle that. Actually hear yourself say those works. That puts your mind in a positive mindset making the task doable. You may have to go outside yourself to get help. There is a lot of help available using online tutorials. Searching the forums is another excellent way of finding information. That is just part of the marketing mind set.
Jim Rohm has a saying “Successful people have libraries. The rest have big screen TVs.”
This quote by Jim Rohn reminds us that we need to keep abreast of the information available for our business and spend time keeping abreast. When we think of libraries our minds go the picture of a room lined with shelves with many books filling the shelves. It also has a nice desk and a comfortable reading chair. I can see that picture because I also would like to have that. I don t have that, but, I have my computer. My hard drive has the capacity to store many many ebooks and tutorials. With a little planning and effort I can categorize my ebooks and tutorials so that with a few clicks I can have the information in front of me on the screen. If the information is not on my hard drive I can use the search engines to locate the information I require. The marketing mindset involves a persistent disciplined approach.
One of my favorite sources of specific information is visiting some of the many niche forums available and read the posts and post a question if necessary. Marketers using the forums have been there done that. The hard drive library you have built up and search the web library will probably yield the information you are after. It may take some time searching through all the information available like reading through several books in your library to find the one that has your answer. Information obtained from forms can be much quicker. The marketing mindset is for ever learning and growing.
