What is takes to be great an affiliate marketer?

Affiliate Marketing

Last week I came across this interesting article in Fortune on subject of what it takes to great.

Just picture this for a second, what does Tiger Wood and Warren Buffett have in common?
Natural talent or Enormous amount of dedicated hard work over many years.

Now I can almost hear you thinking, well research now shows that the lack of natural talent is irrelevant to great success. The secret? ...Painful and demanding practice and hard work.

Both Tiger and Warren are famed for their discipline and hours of practicing in driving range or hours spends on studying financial statement of potential investment.

I am sure you have heard of stories of many people work hard for decades without appoaching greatness or even getting significantly better. Now what is missing and researchers called this deliberate practice.

It's activity that explicitly intended to improve performance to reach the next level, feedback on results or actions and involves high degree of repetition.

For example : You probably know that simply hitting a bucket load of golf balls is not deliberate practice and which why most golfer can't get better at the game.

Now hitting a seven iron 200 times with the a goal of leaving the ball within 10 feet of the pins 90% of the time, continually observing the results and making appropriate adjustments and doing that for hours very day. Persistence discipline and consistency is important to be great at what you do in your chosen field.

Okay, you're probably wondering, what does this information mean to you in affiliate marketing?

Obviously, each and every day online, you're going to come up against another obstacle. It may be small - it may be big. Everyone in business has obstacles to overcome. I personally face obstacles online everyday.

That's just the way affiliate marketing business is... the road isn't always smooth or easy. There will always be some distractions as well and informations overload.

If you have the BIG picture in focus and apply the deliberate practice approach in implementing some of these proven tactics like PPC, JV, articles submission with a consistent action plan to test, monitor and evaluate results to achieve your desire outcomes.

Those that succeed in affiliate marketing business don't allow anything to stop them from moving forward toward their goals. Each day you’ll gain more and more momentum and those daily obstacles ultimately become easier and easier to overcome.
