Internet marketing is not a career!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>One of the secrets of success is that <strong>when you make a decision, everything  else will fall into places<\/strong>. It&#8217;s one of the secrets of the universe, as  important as the law of attraction.<\/p>\n<p>The tough part is to make a decision.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven&#8217;t made up your mind that you&#8217;re going to create a full time  income from internet marketing, I hope this article can help you to make a  decision today.<\/p>\n<p>Ok, let&#8217;s compare Internet Marketing with Stock Trading, MLM and a Brick And  Mortar Business.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been through all the 3 other options and I believe I&#8217;m qualified to  share with you my experience.<\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#ff3300\"><strong>Internet Marketing vs. Stock Trading<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n<p>I see stock trading as a form of wealth management. You should learn how to  park your extra money in the stock market to get better ROI (return on  investment) than putting money in fixed deposit.<\/p>\n<p>But trading the stock market full time is a bad idea, unless you package it  into a business, especially an online business. If so, you&#8217;re back to the idea  of internet marketing.<\/p>\n<p>The truth is most stock trading experts make money teaching people how to  trade stocks! They create courses, software and books to teach people and make  huge profit from there.<\/p>\n<p>In stock trading, there is no sure-win. If you get a return of 50%  consistently, you are considered an expert.<\/p>\n<p>But do you know that you can get 1000% ROI in internet marketing? For  example, I can invest $200 to get freelancers to rewrite articles, create a  website and build links. In the years to come, this website will easily earn me  more than $2000. That&#8217;s a return of more than 1000%!!!<\/p>\n<p>My risk? The worse case is I break even. These days, I hardly have a website  that lose money. It&#8217;s just a matter of time before I break even.<\/p>\n<p>My advice is, trade stock if you are interested, but spend more time building  your online empire because you can get better ROI at lower risk.<\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#ff3300\"><strong>Internet Marketing vs. MLM<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n<p>The dream of MLM (Multi-level marketing or network marketing) is that you can  achieve time and financial freedom. This is the idea that most MLMers will try  to sell you.<\/p>\n<p>To me, the true value in MLM is mindset training. Success is all about  mindset. Good MLM companies have good training that can instill the  millionaire&#8217;s mindset into you. This is something internet marketing can hardly  achieve.<\/p>\n<p>Other than that, I really can&#8217;t see any advantage over internet marketing.<\/p>\n<p>If you talk about financial freedom, internet marketing can definitely give  you financial freedom. Online income is definitely more passive than MLM income.  In fact, you can have multiple streams of online passive income, which makes it  more stable than just 1 source of passive income.<\/p>\n<p>If you talk about time freedom, MLM can give you time freedom ONLY after you  are successful. During the process of team building, it&#8217;s hell!! Your working  hours are nighttimes, Sundays and public holidays. These are times when your  family members are free but you are not!<\/p>\n<p>Internet marketing, on the other hand, gives you time freedom EVEN before you  are successful. You still have to work hard, but you chose when you want to  work. You can work when everyone is sleeping. Or you can work an hour and play  with your kids for the next hour. It&#8217;s all up to you.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, if you truly believe in the power of MLM, you should explore online  MLM instead of the old-school brick and mortar MLM. The old-school MLM is really  a time waster.<\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#ff3300\"><strong>Internet Marketing vs. Brick And Mortar Business<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n<p>Ever since I tasted the goodness of online marketing, I&#8217;ve never thought of  doing brick and mortar business again!<\/p>\n<p>I started out running traditional business and it was a relief when I  converted my entire business to online. When I ran my offline business, my mind  was all about how to pay my rental, my staff&#8217;s salary, how to bring in customers  etc. I hardly have time to think of business strategies and expansion.<\/p>\n<p>But online business is almost stress-free. When you are small, you work  alone. There is no worry of office rental and staff cost. You spend most of your  time thinking of business strategies and how to expand your business, which is  definitely more important than working hard to pay bills!<\/p>\n<p>Another important difference is in offline business, you can hardly find  people who are willing to show you how to make money. But in online business,  many people (too many in fact) wanting to show you how they make money. Some of  them may charge you, but you are talking about $47 or $97. That&#8217;s cheap!<\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#ff3300\"><strong>Final Remark&#8230;&#8230;<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n<p>I hope I&#8217;ve been impartial in my comparison. I&#8217;ve been on both sides of the  equation and I just hope that my experience can help you make a better decision.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, regardless of which decision you make, <strong>once you make the  decision, everything else will fall into places for you!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you know what&#8217;s the #1 reason why most people fail to make money online?
