Frustration is an inevitable feeling for entrepreners and business owners.


  

    As entrepreneurs and business owners there is going to come a time that you start feeling frustration while you are working on developing your businesses. Now because of this it's important that you have a support system in place, but we will get into that in a minute.


   First let's look at two of the possible reasons that you may be getting frustrated.
  
1. No sales or traffic.
    
   This is one that I have personally have dealt with and still deal with daily. We all know that for any business to be profitable it needs sales and in order to get sales you need traffic. To get traffic you need to promote your company. Now traffic is important for any business but it's the lifeblood of any online endeavor.
  

2. Generating traffic.
      
   With this you have two options.
You either buy traffic, and that can get expensive, or you try to get free traffic, and that can be hit or miss. Right now this is my biggest stressor because I have several affiliate programs that I promote and for those to work you need traffic to make sales. There are multiple ways to get free traffic. One well known way we already do, and that is using social media and marketing your site or company that way. The easiest way to find other places to promote is to do a Google search and see what you come up with.
  
   As I mentioned earlier having a support system in place is imperative. As it allows you to have someone that will listen to you and also give you encouragement to keep going. Entrepreneurship is hard and it sucks at times, but you can make it through. As you know I have a wife and she is my rock at times, especially on this journey, and last night we were talking and I told her that I was frustrated and why. She gave me some really good advice. She basically said don't worry about the few followers that you lost because you will recover from it, but instead celebrate how far you've come, and that is what is important. To learn from your mistakes, and celebrate your gains. So frustration is natural and to be expected in this life, but don't give up. Rely on your support system and you'll make it through.

Hello and Welcome.

What is the purpose of this blog?      In short what I want to do with this blog is allow people to come and learn, and even give their opinion on topics.

Why did I start this blog...    The reason I decided to start this is to chronicle my journey into affiliate marketing. Which I will do a post on in the coming days and explain what affiliate marketing is and how you can make money doing it. A little bit about me.... My name is Kevin, and I have been an entrprenuer since about 2012. I was kind of thrust into it as a way to help bring in some income with the birth of my son. Six years later and it's been a rollercoaster with some failures and minor successes. On the other side I have an amazing wife of six years and two wonderful kids, one of which is high functioning Autistic. Needless to say it's been an interesti...

A Comment I Made.

Ok so I made a comment on a post on instgram, and I really hope it helped at least one person. In that comment I talked about how to get to where you are financially free. It's a simple concept, but the hard part is execution. In this, the one thing I forget to say is that make sure that most of your income streams are passive, and what that means is that you don't have to actively work at it. Those could be anything from investments to dropshipping or affiliate marketing, but the main thing is that you don't have to actively manage it. Personally I would make my highest netting endeavor my main focus. Until it reaches a point that you can sell it for a profit, and then start something new. What you'll need to is figure out the  execution, and that is what a lot of people, including myself have a hard time with. Once you get the execution, everything else will fall into place.
