Want to discover the secret to making money online? Well then you got to read the rest of this post because today I am going to share with you the number one secret to making money online.
But first let me tell you a story of a farmer…
There was once a group of traveller that went past a large open field while they were on the road to their destination. What they didn’t manage to saw was a farmer that was planting seed into the ground.
After a few months later, they went past the same field but this time, the field is now filled with golden brown wheat which was ready to harvest. Then they give this comment when they saw this scene: “The farmer who owns this field is going to be rich because of the harvest”.
Right now you must be probably thinking what has the story of the farmer do with the secret to making money online.
Let me explain…
In the above story there is actually a law of this earth which was in action. This law is called “Seed Time and Harvest“. You see this law is functioning every single day of your life whether you notice it or not.
What the traveller saw was the harvest the farmer received but what they didn’t saw was the hard work of the farmer planting the seed into the ground. You see, people usually saw the harvest but often over look the seed sowed.
That is what happens to many new online marketers too. They saw the harvest that the guru reaps but they never saw the sowing that they did in the beginning.
And that is why you need to apply the same law to your online business. Before you can start profiting from your list, you got to sow something to your subscribers. Do not always think of just getting from your subscribers instead think on how you going to give to your subscribers.
Only when you start sowing/giving, you will start to see your harvest coming in. Many marketers make these mistakes while they build a list, they will keep sending promotion email after promotion email and they wonder why they are not making any money.
The reason is simple; they did not apply the law of ”Seed Time and Harvest“ which is also known as Sowing and Reaping. Ask yourself this question, if you are one of the subscriber, do you like to receive promotional email after promotional email from the marketer?
If you yourself do not like being treated so, what make you think your subscriber like being treated so. Think in their shoes and sow something valuable into their life and I am sure you will reap a harvest from them.
I always like a verse in the bible which explained the above clearly:
Luke 38 : Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Follow the above principle and you will see your subscribers starting responding to your offers. Remember to come back here and tell me your success stories after you apply the above principal!
