I was with a group of people the other day teaching a webinar and I had a very eye opening experience...
One of the questions I got in the webinar was, "when did marketing online go from being so damn confusing to easy as butter?"
I didn't want to give a half ass remark, so I tried thinking about a actual moment in which that happened to me.
It took me a minute and I started to realize, what we marketers do online is really like a language in its own.
I do remember a certain day though, it was the most productive day ever.
I got done 6 articles, 6 video's and 2 unique blog posts. And a whole set of ads for Adwords...
2 days before that I had only gotten less than half of that done. I can remember thinking if I could only keep this up for another 90 days I'd be golden.
And this is exactly the day I told her about on the webinar, it was the day where I breezed through the most productive work day ever.
I told her it wasn't that day, it was the whole year before that, that led to that day...The countless seminars, webinars, courses, hours and dollars spent that no one sees but me.
Im posting this so I can get some feedback from you guys, not only for myself but also for the soon-to-be successful marketers reading this...
"What was that turning point when making money online went from being So Damn Hard to Hella-Easy?"

I don't know if it ever got "easy", but I remember when it seemed like everyone was making sales, but I couldn't seem to make one, so I felt like a failure. Then one day it happened, and not long afterward, I got another sale. So I was like, "wow, this really works!".

For me it was when my brain stopped hurting from all the thinking I would do before I did anything. I remember all the planning and long lists I did only to read somewhere that I also needed to do this, this and this.
Instead of me doing what I already knew I was making my work look unachievable - I was starting project after project to the point that my head hurt just thinking about what I had to do - if that make senses.
One day I listened to a interview with a guy called Craig Desorcy and what he said opened my eyes and allowed me to see through all the unmeaning less stuff I was doing. When I stopped and looked at what I had, I knew what I had to do and from that day, my head was clearer and my work just flows now.
In addition, I am always thankful when i receive a sale or positive feedback. Many make their sales for granted because is not hitting the 6 figure income mark that's shouted across that internet, they don't acknowledge it as an achievement. Which is a shame..

That statement is a reflections of putting in your "work" to succeed. Too many say they don't want "it" given to them but they won't sit down and put in the work to succeed.
I don't recall any magic day, but I realized that I began to just review a plethora of stuff about marketing and applying and testing. Testing is the thing. Often the problem is not the marketing method but what one is saying/doing or not saying/doing in their marketing.
Anyhow, in 4 years of successfully marketing networking home business opportunities, and sharing with others how to do the same, to earn money online, I've learned it's a simple thing of creating your web presence by consistently doing marketing.
The amazing thing is one doesn't have to do a ton of different things but a few consistent things will work, such as forum marketing and, these days, social network marketing. But that's just an example.
People want the magic formula, and it is simply consistent good marketing, but that's some work that many will not effectively put in. Marketing for success is like an evolving volcano eruption.
You have to get the lava heated up boiling and smoking before the volcano erupts. That's what Getagrip is referring too. Often people quit when the lava is just getting warmed up and starting to boil, and then they never see the eruption of success.
If you are effectively marketing to your targeted audience it is pretty much inevitable that you will get positive results.

The day I realized that the best way to be a successful network marketer is not to be the best marketer, but to teach your team how they can be the best marketers.
