“I made $15,000 a month thanks to my e-book on ClickBank.com.” “I make $30,000 a month thanks to my mailing list of 25,000 subscribers.” “I make over $30,000 to $50,000 a month thanks to free traffic from the search engines.” As they say, people are prospering with Internet marketing, and online sales superstar Mark Anastasi tells you how to join their ranks. He’s proud that these now-wealthy entrepreneurs learned to strike it rich on the Internet by attending his seminars, viewing his DVDs or subscribing to his newsletter. He maps many different routes to potential online riches. You may want to choose carefully among his suggestions. Some are valid and helpful, but others may make you question Internet commerce. For example, one setup exploits the cheap labor of impoverished people by selling their work at many times the broker’s purchase price and other tactics call for selling lists in various forms, despite possible privacy concerns. Thankfully, most of Anastasi’s Internet moneymaking suggestions do not present such dilemmas, so with that alert, getAbstract suggests this intensely practical manual to anyone – especially newcomes to web enterprise – who wants to make money on the web.

Summary

Striking Internet Gold

In Romania, most people earn barely $300 each month. Romanian student Vlad Danciu, 22, earns from $3,000 to $4,000 monthly as an Internet entrepreneur. Danciu sells Facebook groups and pages that have some 5,000 fans or members to other businesses for $650 to $1,000. The 20 clients of another Internet entrepreneur, Runè Johansen, pay anywhere from $1,700 to $10,000 each month for his social media management advice. Blind UK musician Matt Watson earns $50,000 each month from his hugely popular Internet membership site.

How did these three individuals learn to make so much money online? They learned from author, seminar host and entrepreneur Mark Anastasi, who started out broke, homeless and unemployed. In his early 20s, Anastasi turned his life around, making $10,000 through Internet marketing during his first month of online operations. Anastasi earned enough money from his various Internet business activities to become financially independent by age 25. He has continued to amass wealth from his Internet ventures, he explains, sometimes earning as much as $100,000 a day while doing little more than lounging around on the beach.

Can't figure out when he's not advertising. Glad to get abstract instead of spending money on his ads. Some ideas, such as ebook, are cute. However other "ideas" are just run the mill copy cat. Profit numbers are especially fishy: 192 seminar registrations for $30,000? That's about $150 per person. Unless you are well established speaker you don't get away with this kind of fee.
