It wasn’t all that long ago when I was a newbie marketer. I remember how overwhelmed I was trying to learn all the in’s and out’s of marketing on the internet. Unfortunately when I first got started not many people where using youtube or social media for that matter. I ended spending money on things that looking back that I didn’t have to spend money on.
One of the main problems that affect a newbie marketer is the fact that they do not have any credibility, therefore they have a really hard time making money. It can seem like a big problem if you try and tackle it alone.
Tips For The Newbie Marketer
- Don’t join a business with someone just because you heard of their name. There is a good chance that if that person is to successful online they don’t have time to work with you 1 on 1.
- Do find someone you can work with 1 on 1.
- Make sure that you take lots of notes and put into application the things you are learning
- Get over your fears. This is a big one. If something makes you feel uncomfortable, you are going to have to get over it.
- Don’t make excuses, people who make excuses are never successful at anything.
As a newbie marketer you need to create credibility in your message. You have 2 options.
- Re-create the wheel , spend lots of money and time proving you are the real deal. (yes it works, yes it is time consuming, yes most people fail because they won’t ask for help.)
- Find a mentor,sponsor, teacher,coach etc..Who is willing to work with you 1 on 1. The critical piece of the puzzle is finding someone who you can latch onto and learn everything you can from that person.
Finding Just The Right Person For You!
As you can see, the main thing I am talking about here is getting yourself a teacher. A mentor can show you in a couple of months what it would take you a couple of years to learn on your own. Be honest here for a moment, if deep down inside all that you want is to make some good money online it pays for you to find a good teacher.
You need a couple of things to be successful,
A good teacher a product that is demand and presto you got yourself a winner. I actually did a video of me helping one of my peoples 1 on 1… Could this type of training help you? Can you imagine, this video is only 6 minutes of what ended up being a 2 hour training session…

“When One Teaches, Two Learn”
Hi Gina, thank you. I do what I can … 🙂
Finding a coach or a mentor sounds like a good option. It is hard to go through the learning process alone. It would be great to learn from someone who has a lot of experience and someone I can relate to.
The one thing I’ve found hard is the mentor/mentee relationship. Not so much, hard to do, but hard to find. Of course, there are paid mentors and coaches, but that’s something I’ve never been able to afford. Only once, about five years ago I had a chance to have a coach offer their services for free. It was in a different field than I’m in today, and some bad circumstances cut off that opportunity, but it was fun while it lasted and beneficial.
Hi Brian thanks for stopping by and commenting. You are correct it is very hard to find a good mentor..
Well it is really necessary especially to a newbie to have and take some knowledge to other people or mistakes that you will make. This will give you hints on the right things that you need to do to improve and be successful in your niche. It is also necessary that you never give up but instead keep on looking for the things that may help you to be successful.
Hi Mhelgie, you have a great attitude!

Every new marketer has the challenge for marketing product or service and grows business. There are many marketers available so it is hard to stay head with competitors. New marketer should use all normal tips and tricks of other marketers and also include some new techniques for successful business.
I think the most important thing to do is to have a unique voice. Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts..
Finding a mentor is a good option. It is always good to learn from wise person rather than learning it alone.
Hi Catherine,

Hi, I really appreciate your advise , it really boost my confidence since I am starting now in the internet. According to my friend who is already successful in this field that you will need patience and determination to learn marketing on the web plus traffic generation, then the sky really is the limit for you. I hope it will be also true for me, another word of advise I received from his is that to be extra careful and cautious about scams on the net regarding making money. You can lose both time and money if you invest them in the wrong places.
Why do you say, “If something makes you uncomfortable, you are just going to have to get over it?” If someone is feeling uncomfortable, that can be a real symptom that something is wrong, either in an action or a business relationship. I believe in the power of intuition.
