The Most Important Common Denominator Among All Successful Online Marketers Making Over $100,000 A Year
When working with new or struggling online home business owners I’m inevitably asked what is the most important thing to learn in order to be successful making money online. For those who are either aspiring Internet & affiliate marketing or online network marketing successes, my answer is the same. It’s not a single marketing process or technique, nor is it becoming proficient in sales copy writing, blog set-up, site SEO, social media marketing or attracting waves of traffic. Hell, all those my friends I can teach and you can learn.
My answer revolves around the common thread that those who reach the 6-figure mark (9K+a month) have mastered which conversely, those that do not succeed are lacking. Those that have become successful all started their journey differently. Some were out of work and jumped in head on, others could devote 2-4 hrs a day and then the weekends to making their vision become a reality. For some it took just a few short months while others pursued niche markets that took longer to penetrate, sometimes even years….. but what is their common denominator?
In my experience, many act committed but are what I call “closet fence sitters“. They’re just one failure away from giving up on their dream (and thus themselves). In all my training I’ve never known one who became successful without altering that perspective, burning the ships that would take them home & committing their entire being to making what they envisioned a reality. That is the gauntlet, the pre-requisite, the crucible if you will for success to grow.
The common denominator is an unwavering commitment that is nailed to the wall by a passionate pursuit, the internal fire of which they will not let die! Know this; if you get this tool in your tool box you will be successful. Everyone who has mastered it has! But the journey to success is not a straight path but a maze in a dark room. You will hit road blocks but your undying pursuit will guarantee success.
That means if you have 2-4 hrs everyday to devote to building your retirement then you commit to doing that every day….not because you have to, but because you have a burning desire to achieve it and can’t stop yourself! You recognize that this is the only way you can make the most dramatic long-term impact in your life and the life of those you love. I’ll use my journey as an example.
I remember when I first started my pursuit to become successful online, it was putting the kids to bed, kissing the wife and working from 9:30-1:30 and then working weekends to make it happen. To not do that meant I had to return to a life without hope and accept an identity in a job without being valued, respected or paid proportionately to the amount of money I brought into the company only to be downsized at the next economic downturn.
Once I finally recognized how much I’d sold myself short driving life’s car stuck in first gear and then felt the exhilaration of popping the clutch and taking off, I couldn’t ignore it anymore. I’d finally begun to define not only who I truly was but more importantly, what I could become and my family deserved that man. I couldn’t just go back to the hopeless daily grind of existing when I wanted to live free and live fulfilled. I wanted my kids to see my example of one they could pattern their life after. For them to see that short term sacrifice for long-term gain to make your dreams a reality did work and was an honorable pursuit.
This my friends, is the common denominator. It doesn’t matter what you “do” or “don’t know” when you start out because your passionate commitment from your burning determination will push you past any deficiencies and empower you to learn everything needed to be successful….but only if you are truly committed to weather all storms and take the failures as part of the journey, going back to the drawing board to retool and redouble your effort when they come.
In all honesty, limiting those storms and mistakes is the sole reason why I created the “Success Steps” training. To give you a flashlight if you will, as you navigate your personal success maze. Even though I teach everything you need to know to be successful online and give a life-time money back guarantee, it’s amazing to me how many people will email me and say that they’re not sure about spending $59 (even though the training is worth well over $500 not including the free bonuses). My response is that they’re just not ready to get off the fence yet.
The bottom line is that whatever you want to get in life, if you give it a sold-out commitment that’s nailed to the wall by a passionate fire that won’t quench, success is not a matter of “if” but “when”. Whatever your pursuit, know that the foundation must be built on that and nothing less, or the house will crumble when the storms come.

Thanks Baz! Appreciate the kind words my friend!

The burning desire must be couple with belief and the willingness to “burn the ships on the beach”
It is difficult for everyone to keep that Focus with the mud life throws, but we becomes used to “showering” often, if not hourly.

Wow! Such a great post here! Pretty amazing! We definitely have to be passionate and committed to make it big in this industry. We will never succeed if we have the mindset of forcing ourselves to work every single day and dragging ourselves to work. Not good at all. Our mindset and character definitely plays a huge role here. We can definitely get anything we want in life as long as we are determined and committed to go out and get it.
“Commitment is doing what you said you were going to do, long after the excitement in which you said it in is gone.”
Thanks for the inspiration!

Persistence and branding yourself the way you want others to see you. Walk the walk and I can’t think of anything else to add to it. Napoleon Hill in Think and Grow Rich also named burning desire. Sometimes it’s a grind but sticking to what you want by helping enough other people get what they want.
Thanks for your great advice. How we think is perhaps the most important component in a Successful Online Home Business. Quote from Brian Tracy, “Thoughts are causes and conditions are effects.”

For eight years I was like Dumbo the elephant… just going round in circles. Danger came and I was released and carried on in circles. Life caught up with me – that opportunity had gone. Frustration and frustration again late. Then came the second major thing. This time a friend took me out of the town. They gave me somewhere to help in, change focus with. Although they could not afford to pay for the work I continued doing for their business.I am forever grateful for their compassion and our mutual need.
SO here I am with an added incentive to succeed. Yes I am passionate and all the above. What I am also now is financially broke. Nothing like it to spur you on to reaching great things for self. When I can get myself out of this then I will be back to really helping others again. Then again the dog will get better food as well.
Thank you for writing this article.
Great info. thanks. I can always use a good tip, and can never get too much.
This was a good article and speaks true to every business, whether it be online marketing, affiliate marketing or traditional marketing. Someone once wrote (wish I could remember who) that many people will not LET themselves be successful. In some way, the constantly sabotage their efforts. Your article says it all. focus, determination and hard work will reward you with success. Very inspiring, good article.
Awesome article. Thanks for the share.
Good article, inspiring and worth reading. Thanks!
The goal that we are passionately focused on will pull us through anything we may have to go through to get there.
Thank you so much for the reminder!
Yes, work at home is still hard work for a long time.
The entrepreneur must possess great courage to start a business with a share of the risk. When trying to start something, we immediately lose the familiar footing. Fear can interfere with doing it. But if you do not start, you can lose yourself.
Hi Biz Coach, I caught you tweet to this post and came through to read and glad I did. I think you have described the bloggers delema down to a tee. It seems that a mind focussed on its goals will get there eventually. Your post was a pleasure to read and is an inspiration and warning to those embarking on a trip into the blog-o-sphere.
I’m gonna go back and retweet your link
Cheers, and as always, take action and prosper, Pete.
