Welcome back! Have you joined my mailing list yet?

I was making the rounds on the net and I saw this post on Shoemoney’s blog called “Progress and Completion” where he talks about making progress on things and how completion of a goal sometimes puts a stop to progress. Aside from being a very good post, he mentioned something that made me think a bit (aside from the whole thing about making progress, etc.).

He mentioned the typical email that he receives on a daily basis, essentially someone giving a sob story about why they need to know his secret to making money out of nothing (or almost nothing) overnight. But the big thing that got me thinking was the typical reaction to Shoe’s well thought out response. You know, going ballistic because Shoemoney didn’t divulge all of his secret tricks; forget the fact that he said that wasn’t his focus…

But let’s get down to brass tacks. If you are reading this, then you really just want to know what makes Jeremy Schoemaker so much freaking money. I know the answer. Are you ready?

Mr. Schoemaker’s secret is learning. Shall I explain this a bit more?

Whether you are talking about Shoemoney, John Chow, or any other super affiliate, there is a common thread in the way they make their money. It’s all about learning how to make different programs work best in combination.

And for those idiots who email these guys demanding that they give out their ‘secret recipe’, think about this: THEY ARE ALREADY GIVING IT OUT. Maybe they aren’t just handing over a piece of paper or an ebook with their entire business strategy on it, but the bits of information and wisdom that they include in their blogs are, in fact, parts of their strategy. Ideas that work, ideas that suck, it’s all there. All you have to do is pay attention.

And I’m pretty sure that these guys didn’t just instantly find something that made their bank accounts spazz out. There’s not a single success story that didn’t include failure somewhere in the mix.

OK, maybe that’s not a big secret. But from the response that Jeremy spoke of, you would think that it was.

Anyway, every affiliate blogger worth reading will drop some useful bits of information on their blog. All you have to do is read it. Grab their RSS feeds…and get my RSS feed while you are at it. Join their mailing lists. Jeremy sends some awesome information through it that you won’t just find lying around the blog…it’s definitely worth doing.

Anyway, this is just a thought. Keep reading and learning, and one day you may be making the big bucks as well.
