Hi All!

Hope everyone has had a great Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and you’re looking forward to a Happy New Year.

While I’m still working on categorizing all of my affiliate programs, I wanted to take time and do a post about IM ADD.

What the heck? Yeah, Internet Marketing Attention Deficit Disorder.

The market is flooded with ways to start an IM biz and there are tons of programs out there to help you do that. As an affiliate, you can flit from branch to branch trying to find a good fit.

My advice? Pick someone you like and hang out with them. Pick a couple, maybe, but definitely not hundreds.

Believe me, I am an IM ADD-er. That’s why I have to sit down and slog through all the programs I’ve signed up for and looked at.

And my 2009 resolution is this: when I sign up as an affiliate, I’m going to look at the material right then instead of waiting. It’s too easy to lose track — like I did — of what to promote and why.

Here are my top gurus:

Mike Filsaime
Jeff Johnson
Howie Schwartz
Michael Rasmussen
Paul Evans

I’ve gotten the most from those 5 guys. Interesting, though, there aren’t any women in that list. Wonder why?

If you feel like you’re going to suffer from IM ADD, stop. Take a deep breath. Pick a day on your calendar to look through all of the material you have and then move forward.

And realize that you aren’t going to make 6 figures in 6 weeks. It takes time and effort to get good at the IM game. It’ll happen.

IM is also about trying new things to see what works for you. IM is the most customizeable business there is. And being your own boss is the only safe job right now.

More later!

Best — Vic
