My life story… How did I get to this point…

So today I’m going to getting a little personal and tell you my life story to this point as I’m 21 turning 22 in a couple of months. I’ve lived a lot of life and had many experiences that molded the person you see now. Truth be told, my education started after I dropped out of school. Life in it, itself is the best teacher and whether you take notes and past the tests it throws at you or not… Life will educate everyone, it’s up to you learn.

Let’s start things off right shall we? Starting with my name, Benjamin Immanuel Christian Clark. I know, A lot right? My mom named me with purpose as the first three of my names are biblical. “Benjamin” symbolizing the right hand of God. “Immanuel” meaning God with us. “Christian” meaning follower of christ. You can tell I grew up in a house hold that was surrounded in church.

Truth be told I wasn’t actually supposed to be here. My mom till this day calls me her “Miracle baby” because, I was supposed to die at birth. When I was being delivered the ambilical cord was wrapped around neck about three times and I was literally seconds away from leaving this planet, but thank God that wasn’t the case… I made it. Now because of that situation my mom thought I was going to grow up “special” because of some of the effects I had in my early stages of my life. I was super quiet and a little slow, but as I grew up, I pretty much did a whole 360. Seriously, you see me now I’d probably talk your ear off.

So as I grew up, we weren’t rich. We started off as most people and that’s at the bottom. We weren’t living on the streets thank God, but we did have a lot of moments we struggled. We had moments when we didn’t know how the bills would be paid, we had moments when we had to live with other family members houses if we weren’t at our own spot. There’s been times we didn’t know what we were going to eat or even have transportation. Now here’s the part where most people neglect to give the Lord thanks, because truth be told we still made it through and with flying colors. I never went hungry, I always had clothes on my back, a roof over my head and my mom always provided for me just like God provided for us.

Now as a kid, you already know I would always dream big and have big goals/hope for a future. I didn’t know what I was going to do, but I knew I was going to be successful one day. I went to a lot of elementary schools in the early stages in my life, but finally I ended up at one called Crouch elementary from 4th-6th grade. Fast-forward to 2012 we were living in our own apartment, but we ended up getting evicted and forced to get out. So we ended up moving in with my Aunt and for 6 years I had to share a room with my mom because we stayed in her Den.

2014 I finally was in position to finally start working. My first job and till this day I know God was looking out for me for this, but my first job was Footlocker. Not just any Footlocker, but the best and biggest Footlocker in the southern region. As a junior in highschool, I had that job and my popularity shot up literally overnight. However, having that job made me realize how fake people were as I was only getting hit up for a discount and after a year in a half I became the “shoe guy”… You don’t want to be the shoe guy… Anyways, I met a lot of amazing people. Different races, different personalities, people from different countries. I think that help me develop my personality to adapt to anyones character. After two years and two months I finally left that job and thats where my real story begins…

So this was around the year 2016 when I quit and I was still in college. I was in my first semester in college doing my basics and my mom gave me a choice, because she really wanted to see me succeed, but money was tight around this time as I was just fresh out of a job looking for another one. She said I could either do school full-time or work full-time. As much as I wanted to pick one, at the time I was under the mindset that society tells us that a degree will make you a successful, but I knew I needed to make my own money so my mom wouldn’t work any harder than she was. So I decided to do both.

One of my friends gave me a tip for this temp service and thus begins my second job. Now I was never opposed to working for somebody because, my family are pretty much workers so it was just naturally in my blood. However… Little did I know that this job would change my mindset for the rest of my life. So I won’t disclose the name of the job, but this job was so SHIT. They threw me in the warehouse with no training, impatient co-workers, 6 day work week, 12 hour shifts on top of saturdays, we worked till the assembly plant we were in contract with closed. ON TOP OF STILL BALANCING SCHOOL! It got so bad one day, my supervisor was rushing me soo fast, I had a sharp blade in my hand and my gloves weren’t cut resistant and well… You can put 2 and 2 together.

So after two hard and crazy weeks of working their I finally decided to quit because this job was disturbing my peace. Little tip people, I don’t care how good the job pays. If your job is toxic, leave. I ended up leaving and became jobless for about three months. I wasn’t doing good in school in fact, I only passed 2 out of the 4 classes I had and I barley passed them. So throughout those three months I ended up getting involved with one of those MLM’s and I didn’t have knowledge on what that was at the time, but after working that warehouse job I wanted to become my own boss. My entreprenuer bug starting biting me hard. For the first two months of being in that company I was doing good, but in the third month. A big scandal happened in the company and I found out our “Team Leader” was scamming us. I had to pay back everybody I enrolled under me over somebody else’s fuck up and my poor judgement at the time.

So after that happen I was at a stand still. I wanted to own my own business and be my own boss, but didn’t know how and I was mad that I wasn’t making any progress in life. Fast-forward to August 2016 I was watching youtube videos and I stumbled upon this video made by Complex about this guy starting a Shopify store and making millions in three months. This is where my online business journey began. So fast-forward a little over a year later(around Decemeber 2017) I’m working at Ups after finally making the descion to dropout of college, because I wasn’t learning and the classes they offered me and took, didn’t help me at all. Ironically, they were business classes.

Anyways, I wasn’t making much money as I was working part-time and since I didn’t have seniority I couldn’t get a full 20 hours, I was only working two hours a day. However, around this time we were in a busy phase since it was the holidays. So I made a plan to use this money and invest it into my business. Now I didn’t know that this was legal but they made us work two weeks no days off. I got paid around $250 dollars and I took that and invested it into instagram influencers(four of them). I spent all of my money. Ended up with over 1400 visitors in a span of a day in a half and only got 1 sale. You can imagine how angry I was when I failed. I was crying hard and I rarely cried, but the disappointment hurt soo much. However, I took that failure and turned it into my very own print on demand streetwear business called 1Vision(site’s down right now but when I get it back up I’ll share my link).

One more year later and I’ve made some money here and there from online shopify stores, but then I happen to stumbled upon Legendary Marketer. Now before I wasn’t a big fan of affilate marketing mainly because, I didn’t have too much knowledge on it, but then I did my own research and realized this is honestly one of the easiest and cheap ways to start a online business especially when you’re a beginner. For the past 4-5 months I’ve built connections, built this blog you’re reading off of right now, built business plans to increase my income streams and increased my  marketing skills. So if you’re looking for a great affilate marketing program to get started with and need all the guidance/teachings to get you on the right track, I highly recommend you join Legendary Marketer.

I want to thank you dearly if you made it this far, I truly appreciate it.

Legendary marketer, Marketer’s club… Should you invest in it…

What’s up everyone, I won’t be taking up too much of your time today, this will be a short blog post, but i’ve been wanting to ease some people’s minds about Legendary marketer and wanted to address a couple of things when it comes into making a investment inside the progam.

So for those who don’t know, Legendary Marketer is a company that teaches you the necessary skills and tips to start and grow your own online business in order to truly create a life changing amount of income for you and your family. No, this is not a MLM(multi-level marketing)scheme, this is a real business that generates you true passive/residual income if you follow the directions and apply everything you’ve learned into action.

Now something that Legendary Marketer has done that will defineitly benefit you especially if you don’t have much money upfront or any money at all in fact is that they have developed a free 15 day training where you will be doing assignments, watching videos, calling you business plan coach and discussing how to build your blueprint up and they’ll be guiding you through out your journey. Now this will only help you if you’re willing to put in some extra work and go get it, because truth be told starting any business with little to no money, is hard period. However, it can be done. To learn more info and to get started for all of my beginners, go ahead a click the link, fill out your info and get started. You’ll be greeted by the introduction video by Dave and he’ll take you on from there. Oh by the way, It’s Free to sign up so there’s no risk to you.

So lets go ahead and address the real question of this post today… Should you invest inside Legendary Marketer’s marketers club? The short and blunt answer, yes. No I’m not saying this because I’m an affiliate with them, y’all already know I only create true and quality content on this blog channel. If I wouldn’t do it personally, I wouldn’t recommend it. So the first reason why you should invest inside the program is because the amount of value you get for the price is literally impeccable. Dave Sharpe and his team have put countless hours into the marketers club to make sure you have quality amount of teachings and genuially learn from the courses and powerpoints shown to you.

Now the value price of marketer’s club is well over $3,000, however the actual price is only $30/month. Think about that, we easily spend 30/month on food, drinks, events, etc, easily. This is great for people who don’t have thousands of dollars to invest off rip for high level teachings, but still want that quality of education. Or even if you do have great amounts to spend, you would like to catch a break and invest part of that money inside the trainings and then invest the rest back into your business in order to grow it even higher, it’s literally like killing two birds with one brick.

Another reason why this would be good for you as well because, my people that already have an online business and you’ve been struggling in order to make conversions(sales) or even generating leads into your offers, they have created tatical strategies on how to excute the ability to generate hundreds of leads and converting them into sales in order for your business to grow. Also the skills you learn here are tranferable so it doesn’t matter if you’e doing Affiliate marketing, social media marketing, Ecom, etc… these skills can be used anywhere. One of the main things I always say is becareful who you learn from. It isn’t wise to learn from someone who hasn’t done or created the results they are trying to teach you.

One of the final reasons why I recommend the marketer’s club ESPECIALLY if you’re a beginner or someone with a stuggling business, is because these people that Dave shows in here such as Nathan Lucas and many other successful 6-7 figure earners is that they have the creditbility and the results to speak on the tips and stratigies they use to build their business and how you can take those tips and implement them inside your business. For more infomation click this link here and watch the video, if you want to skip the video and get straight to the courses click here and fill out the infomation. Yes, I do get a commission when you purchase this course I want to make sure I’m very upfront and clear about that.

DISCLAIMER: Legendary believes in hard work, putting in the time and effort and getting the results. This is NOT a get rich quick scheme and one thing I preach a lot is that, there isn’t such thing as “Over-night success”. So with that being said if you’re the type of person that wants things to happen quickly and you expect to make 100,000 with 2 days, I STRONGLY advice you not to purchase the program. Results do vary and everybody situation is different in terms of finances, but everybody CAN be successful at this.

Affiliate marketing for dummies…

DISCLAIMER: In no way am I actually calling you a legit dummy, but you’ll be dummy for real if you don’t utilize this information i’m going to give you today. Had to put a little disclaimer, because now a  days society has reached such of high point of sensetivity that it’s off the wall insane. That’s a topic for another day though. If you’re here that means you are officially in the mindset of affiliate marketering but, you first need to know the basics of the business model and how to work your way around it. With that being said I will be going over the main key components over what affiliate marketing is and hopefully you’ll be able to have a sense of guidence on your journey.

Well first lets go over what affiliate marketing actually means and what you do in utilizing this business model. Now I know I briefly go over this in my past blog post, but this will be an indepth explanation on the model so tell your kids to sit their ass down, tell your wife or husband to give you some space and pay attention. Affiliate marketing is the act of promoting a company’s product or service and when a customer buys either or from the company, you get a commission. How you do this is simply running traffic to their website, landing page, video, or what ever they give you to promote and if the customer likes said product or service, since the customer went through your affiliate link you will get a percentage of the sale.

The reason why affiliate marketing is booming right now and will continue to boom is because most of these companies either don’t know how to truly utilize the platforms around them such as facebook, google, instagram, solo ads, etc… You as the marketer and can fill in that gap where the company lacks. You take care of a need in that business and when you become good at it, you’ll be paid very handsomly. You have people who make 5-7 figures a month of this business model alone and with not even much experience at all from the jump.

 

What all I need to get started?

Just your laptop and your phone. This doesn’t require a degree or to have a high level of knowledge or experience behind you. Now in general you don’t need a lot of money to start with this business model however, some companies are a little more expensive to get started with such as Clickfunnels which is between $97-$297 a month depnding on the subscription you use. If you’re not working with that type of money right now you can start with Legendary Marketer free 15 day business plan challenge which teaches you how to build an successful online business followed by having a coach guide you throughout the course which is benefitcial to new comers in the affiliate marketing world. You can also join a Amazon’s affiliate program for free, comissions will vary depending on the product you sell, but the hotter the product the more sales you make.

 

What are the key things I need to know?

Now with doing this business model they’re a couple key things you. How to set up your landing page(if the company you’re promoting doesn’t provide you with one). How to generate leads to your page. How to build an email list so that way even if the customer doesn’t purchase upfront(which is actually rare)than you can actaully follow up with them so eventually they’ll come around. How to structure your ad copy. Most importantly, how to conitnue to provide valuable content that way you can build a life long audience that will repeatitly keep buying from you.

Now at first it does sound a little complicated and maybe a little itimindating, but in reality it’s a lot easier than you think it is. The main thing to this game is to stay consistent and it will become light work. Now I have blog post discussing how to build your landing page, how to strucutre your ad copy, how to quickly build your email list, etc… So I won’t be going into deep detail on that today, but when you’re done reading check them out to get a full explanation on how to do each key component.

With generating leads, it’s a simple concept and with enough trial you’ll be able to master this. The whole point is to either run free traffic(Blogging or youtube)or paid traffic to your affiliate link offer. For those who don’t know what “traffic” or “leads” are just picture a store. The people who walk in the store is the traffic. If nobody walks in the store, there’s no traffic which means no business can be done. The more people that walk into your store, the more people are likely to buy something. Same concept with the internet. The more people click on your link, the more likely people will end up buying what ever you are offering whether it be a product or service.

 

How long will it take before I start seeing results?

Honestly, you shouldn’t worry about that. You have to understand that different people will have different results either cause of the budget money they have upfront for this, the amount of time they put in, consistency, and many other factors. Some of you will make it within a month to 3 months. Some of you in 6 to 10 months and the rest of you maybe a year to three years depending on how bad you really want this business model to work for you and what are you willing to do to get to that point.

Once you’ve found that right company make sure you invest an hour a day to learning and emplimenting what you’ve learned. Set daily goals for yourself on not only how to improve yourself, but to improve your business in general. The money will come, but first focus on creating value and actually creating content that you can re-use so when  you send those emails to your email list that they’re getting a lot of value out of you and in return will come money showers.
