Welcome to the Birmingham M.R.M.I. Support Group

If you are here, you were probably at Stephen Pierce's Making Real Money on the Internet Seminar in Birmingham, AL this past weekend!  And what a weekend it was!! 

I don't know about you, but I could hardly take in all the material that he presented. This is why you are here with us. It would be great if we could have Stephen here holding our hands the whole time, but that is not possible. A few of us were talking and felt that if we knew we had at least some local support that we would be more likely to succeed.  So the next best thing would be to help each other.

We are setting up this blog for sharing information, asking questions about problems we are having, answering questions, and letting others know about things that have worked well for them.  When you post questions and comments to share, please keep it brief.

If you attended the seminar, then I know that you are at least interested in learning more about internet marketing. If you are participating in our support group, I am assuming that you are serious about moving forward and putting into action the principles that Stephen taught this weekend.

Stephen gave us more than enough information to get started and more than enough motivation, so...

LET'S GET STARTED...

For the first post on our blog, I would like to challenge everyone to follow the very steps that Stephen talked to us about on Sunday...getting started.

Before we jump into our program, we need to develop our own individual plan of attack. Only you can decide what that is. So I would suggest that this week we each develop on paper our own little business model, if you will.

1. SET GOALS:
• Think about what you really want out of this and what you want to accomplish.
• Now WRITE YOUR GOALS ON PAPER! And keep them posted where you can see them. You want to keep your eye on the prize!
• Give yourself a time limit on when you want to see results on the short run and the long run. Eg, Where do you want to be in 30 days, 60 days and say, by the end of this year?
2. SET YOUR OBJECTIVES
• What are the ways that you want to employ to achieve your goals?
• Again, write it down with your goals.
• Examples could be:
• Learn the art of selecting a product (Stephen has definitely developed the art and has shown us how to learn it.)
• Maybe, first, develop your skills learning about monetizing by using blogs. It's easy and very cheap!
• Learn the ins-and-outs of developing ad sites using your own domains
• Learn how to utilize WordPress
• Get into the arena of CPA programs
• Prioritize your objective list. Don't try to run before you walk.
3. DEVELOP YOUR ACTIVITIES TO ACCOMPLISH YOUR OBJECTIVE
• What are the specific activities that you will do to put make your objectives become real?
• You can use Stephen's "Focus" techniques to help you get specific here:
• WHAT do you want to do?
• WHERE will you do it?
• WHEN will you work on it? And remember, work on it at least 30 minutes.
• For each of the items on your objective list, you should write "activities" to accomplish it.
4. COMMIT YOURSELF TO DOING IT!!
• We will help each other, give support and encouragement, but you have to do it.

This is already longer than I wanted to write and probably longer than you wanted to be reading. But I want to encourage you to do this with us. I know you want to do it or you would not have spent the three days at the seminar just to hear what Stephen had to say. You attended because you wanted to learn new skills and then go do it...so LET'S GET STARTED!!!

We will be setting up an email list, using the blog to share info, and communicating through Facebook. You will be getting info via email as we get sites developed. Please be patient with us.

Good Luck to everyone!
