Hi, Yolanda and welcome to AffiliateFix! Everyone is a newbie at first.

I always like to suggest starting with these to get the foundational basics:

What is Affiliate Marketing? (START HERE)
Newbie Helpdesk

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM DOING. I HAVE 0 CONVERSIONS. I AM NOT MAKING ANY MONEY.

First, you need to learn about what you're doing. Elsewise, you're flying blind, as they say. I'm sure that, as a teacher, you've already figured that out. That's what we're here for and we will help you all that we can.

In case you are not yet aware of it, it is extremely rare to start making money 'right out of the gate'. Be prepared to do some of your learning by doing and most likely you will lose money initially. Except, it's not a loss, it's an investment in experience and gaining data.

Don't worry, things will become clear as you go.

Anytime you have a question or need help, just start a thread to let us know.

Enjoy the forums, Yolanda!

P.S. Please don't yell at us in all caps.

Hi YOLANDA STALLINGS , welcome to AffiliateFix!

Everyone has to start somewhere. Be active in this community, ask loads of questions, take action, and be committed. That's how it gets done!

Use this forum as a mentor. It's full of members at every level of experience which makes for many balanced perspectives for a Newbie to learn from. Take the time to read through the forums here and see for yourself that the Newbies achieving success have actually dedicated themselves to success in this industry and reaping the rewards by following the advice of fellow AffiliateFix members, being dedicated to success, putting the time in, and making the necessary investments. You cannot shortcut the learning curve. It goes slower for some and it goes faster for others. Everyone has their own intellectual absorption rates, skill development pace, commitment level, and budgets.

You are a FIX'er now and that means you have the world at your feet with IM. Here are a few suggestions:

Read and learn through extensive reading in this community. Select one vertical. one tracker, and one traffic source. Learn from your fellow members here to master each one of them (a couple of months). Then you can expand and replicate your successes.

As a Newbie, you need to read, study, invest, and implement. Perseverance, dedication, and taking action are the cornerstones of the success you will obtain.

Read
Read through the various areas of the forum to learn about the types of marketing available for your new business. Make a list of all the types of marketing and take some notes along the way. Then determine which area of marketing with which you will start your journey.

Do this to select an area of marketing to start, as well, do this to select a tracker, a traffic source, and to select a vertical.

Then read up on the affiliate networks and select two to begin with that will serve your needs and the types of offers you would like to promote. Put your application in and they will call you for an interview. Be professional and be prepared to answer some questions about how you will promote offers, do you have a website, are you a Newbie, etc. Please note, if you join the Dojo, we have a thread there that can offer assistance in getting accepted to some of the networks.

Study
Now that you have selected a basis to begin, read all of the threads in this forum that relate to your initial selections so that you have a rudimentary understanding of their features and benefits.

Invest
You will require some investment. A VPS server, domains, traffic, landing pages, etc. You will need a budget for daily, weekly, and monthly expenses. This will change over time and you will need to update it often so that you know exactly what your costs and earnings are.

Implement
This is where it all starts to earn. You must now begin to implement what you have established as your foundation for your business.

Here is some advice and guidance that will help you establish your initial goals:

Make sure you complete the following first.

Every business needs:

1. a plan
2. a schedule for research, learning, and execution
3. a budget.

Remember to read through our WIKI and get to know the basics as well as some of the buzz words in the industry.

I also recommend reading the following thread:

As a Newbie, What Stops You From Getting Started

Here is a set of immediate goals:

1. Get a VPS
2. Select a vertical
3. Select a tracker
4. Select a couple of networks and get your approval
5. Select a traffic source
6. Create a schedule for researching, learning (training), and working. This is a business, treat it as such!
7. Create a budget for every expense (daily, weekly, monthly)
8. Be very active in this forum by researching, asking questions, helping others when you are able.

Check out the new enhanced membership option here as it is full of great tools and features.

Remember This! : Nothing has to be perfect before you start. Read & study, but invest and implement at the same time. You cannot learn all of it from reading and studying. A great deal of your learning comes from implementing!

Good Luck!

T J

Hi, YOLANDA STALLINGS!

Welcome to AffiliateFix!

As an Online Marketing beginner, not knowing what you're doing leads to not making any money, for sure.

Don't try to get ahead of yourself when starting out, there's a bit of a learning curve involved.

Just make sure you have everything set up correctly beforehand.

You can ask any questions you may have, there's plenty of CPA experts here in this forum.

We'll be glad to help a new member of the AffiliateFix community.

Have a great day & see you around!
