Hey — I am in Hawaii at the moment and I wanted to share some thought with you about having realistic expectations about your new internet business.
I know that you are often hit with ads promising you $27,365 NEXT WEEK in ClickBank earnings using some “Magic System”. Truth is, that is not going to happen, and you are much better off setting some realistic goals.
Anyway, here are some thoughts about just that.
In this video I talk a little about the sort of goals you can set for your new part-time internet business — like paying for that trip to Honolulu.
Enjoy.

Nice video Mark. I, too, am in Hawaii this week (Kauai, on vacation). I love breaking larger numbers down into smaller pieces. I think many people get hung up on thinking they need to create a full time income online and lose focus that every sale counts and even earning just $2000 dollars a year may translate into something they would not have had before (extra house payment, smaller “close to home” vacation, new electronic toys)… Hope you’re having fun as well while working.
@LazyBastardLife Aloha!!!
I agree — key is to start with small goals (first visitor, first sale, first $100 month, first $100 week, etc.)….
Having a great time in Hawaii. Thanks!
Regards,
Mark
Hey Mark,
Great video! Totally agree with your mindset. Set realistic longterm goals and work backwards from there. Having goals is a great way to keep your motivated as that’s something that a lot of internet marketers struggle with – finding the motivation to continue when you’re making pennies (if that) each day. But if you keep working hard (and smart) enough your efforts will eventually pay off and you will be able to do nice things like go to Hawaii using your IM money 🙂
Hope you’re having a great time!

Nice video you have there Mark… I agree with you.. making goals is the first step before putting them into actions… keep posting!
Thanks — really appreciate that.
