Internet Marketing Patience is a Necessary Virtue

Please take the time to read this article, written back in February of 2010 by Rusty Shelton, creator and founder of OceanSwell – a feeder system for TrafficWave

PATIENCE

There is no single quality that is more important to success.
You simply must grasp and understand that marketing anything online is a long-term project.

If you cannot accept that, then abandon Internet Marketing altogether and do it today, because it will save you a lot of grief.

I don’t care what you’ve been told.
I don’t care what you believe.
The truth is still the TRUTH.

Sadly, most people will not stick with an online marketing program for more than 60-90 days before giving up and trying something else. Repeated over and over again, this behavior pattern is a guaranteed recipe for eternal failure.

Take the Team Atlantis Rotator, for example. Obviously, it takes longer than a month or so to go through it. Maybe 3, 4, or 5 months.

Once you pass through the first rotation, you get your money back in the form of Fast-Start bonuses – AND – you have a functioning down line with members who are using a marketing system that can be duplicated.

My God, if that’s not worth waiting for, what is?

And yet, I still have people (angrily, in some cases!) insisting that ‘it’s just not good enough’.

REALLY?

So doing this on your own is faster than a Team system?

Mike Paetzhold is a man I respect and who’s opinions I hold in high regard. I’ve never met the guy, but he’s one of my mentors nonetheless and I’ve chatted with him online many times.

Almost two years ago (when I was just getting started), he told me, “Rusty, the hardest thing you will ever do online is reach the point where you are consistently earning $200-$300 a month. But… after that… it’s quite a bit easier to reach $1,000 and so on.”

Then you know what he told me?
“Give it a year, and you’ll be OK.”

And you what? He was right.
It took me a year to really ‘get’ Internet Marketing.

It took longer still for me to conceive and create Team Ocean Swell so that anyone reading this can have online success in FAR less time than it took me.

So no matter what you are promoting online, I tell everybody the same thing:

Commit to a YEAR in ONE System.

A year is a good benchmark for any online affiliate program and/or marketing system.
Not only that, a lot of ads, links, articles, blog posts, etc. will STILL be getting click-through years after you put them online!

Quitting too soon is so expensive and destructive. Not only have you wasted your money, but you’ve wasted your time. And if that’s not enough, you’ve also destroyed future opportunity for sales and growth. Worse still, you’ve wasted the time of those who tried to help you.

It’s just a TRAIL of destruction and waste.

Now if that doesn’t say it all, I’m not sure what does.
Think about this and then apply it.
You will see for yourself that patience truly is a virtue.

To our continued success,
