DO IT and NEVER QUIT!
What’s the reason why I’m showing you the snapshot of sales and commissions I’m receiving on the left?
You might be wondering and probably guess that I’m about to brag about how much I make on the Internet and such.
But, I’m not.
The snapshot that you are seeing is real but here is the whole point I’m telling you.
Although there are many more sales I’m not showing you here but I must say that this is not an easy work that I did in a short period of time.
In fact I did not make any single sale in the first 3 months I was online. My first commission was less than $10 USD. After the first three months, I was not consistently making money. Of course, I did get one or two sales but there were (meaning many) months that I did not get anything financially from my effort.
But there is one thing that I learned all the way.
Lots of people do not have passion and patience to build an online business. They want to make money as soon as they switch on their computer, without learning the right thing and having the right mindset to build a business. They quit halfway and call it a scam or anything related to that. So, I DID NOT become one of them. I did not try to make my online business work. I wanted to make it work and I worked on it.
If people quit halfway, I keep on learning and doing. That’s why I can show you the snapshot you’re seeing above.
If I were to quit 4 years ago, I could never be able to show you the list of sales I made here.
Now, imagine what the snapshot above would be in the next 5 years!
That’s the clue that I’m putting in your mind today.
- Learn how to build a business online.
- Pick something that you like to do.
- Find out if that would be profitable.
- DO IT and NEVER QUIT!
Of course #2 is debatable for many people, but that’s the rule I’m making for myself.
Make Money Online With Nothing!
Gobala Krishnan from internetmillionaires.com.my is maybe like me – getting lots of emails from people asking him to show them how to make money on the internet without forking out anything from their own pocket.
If not.. topics like this will not be discussed anymore because it’s the same topic being discussed for years. Although we, internet marketers, have been telling others about this for so many times, the same question will appear again and again (partly it’s because of many newcomers looking for quick ways to make money online and being directed into wrong direction).
So, watch and listen this message again.

Internet Mastermind the Malaysian Way…
This news goes to all the Malaysians!
Gobala Krishnan created a paid membership site sometimes last year for the Malaysians. It was known as “The Malaysian Revolution”. Inside you can find among other things – the interviews with 12 Malaysian internet marketers. I’m one of those he interviewed.
Now, he has made it even better. Even the website name is much cooler – “The Internet Millionaires Dot Com” 
Gobala has plan to make his membership site a great one-stop platform for the Malaysians to get information, mastermind and generate income from Malaysia. The last time I spoke with him, I could imagine that this will be the start of his speaking and mastermind activity (sorry Gobala – have to let out the secret )
To kick off the project to a great start, Gobala is organizing a mastermind session in PJ. This is free for Internet Millionaires Silver member but only RM55 if you are not a Silver member.
I can tell you a lot about the importance of a mastermind group but let me say that you want to be there if you live nearby.
For more info, visit internetmillionaires.com.my
Even if you are not a Silver member, join this community for free, click on “Join IMC”.
If you joined as a Silver member using my link on this blog, contact me immediately as I will send you a few complimentary gifts as a way of me saying thank you!
Another Successful Ebook Translation Project
It’s been a very long time since the last email broadcast I sent to you.
I’m still here – only that I have been busy lately with the launch of my another product for my local market.
Here is a little secret – if English is not your first language, then you can duplicate what I do.
Partner with best-selling author and translate his/her book into your mother tongue. Then, introduce this book (or ebook) to your local market. The book has already been a best-seller. You can bet the info is already great. So, now you just have to worry about who you want to sell the product to.
This month launch of my local product is not bad. I bagged in over USD$1000 in 5 short days. I know that it’s not that much if you are American, but that amount of money is worth a month and a half salary of an engineer here.
The original title of the ebook is “Online Profits Made Simple” and it’s available at www.OnlineProfitsMadeSimple.com. The newly launch ebook is “Rahsia Perniagaan Digital” (in Malay) and it’s available at www1.BisnesDigital.com.
from English to Malay (with same content – only different languages)
It’s also a translation project and let me tell you a little more secret.
You can have lots of work done for you, like translating the original book, writing the sales letter, building the website.. Hire people for the job that you think will take a lot of your time and focus more on how to market the product.
That’s how I do for some of my products.
So, how about if English is your only language? How can you benefit from this project?
Find someone (like me) who can translate your book (ebook) to other languages. Then, make a partnership with that person. Oftentimes, people like me are bilingual. So, in the end, you will still get people in foreign market to get to know you – and eventually buy your book in English too.
Until next time…
warmly,
Zamri Nanyan
