  You said you want to build a list and you don't know much about internet marketing, right?
  
•

  Akan Essien
  

  Yes
  
• 

  6/4, 3:58pm
  

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  Do you have any idea what a list is and what it's used for?

  Akan Essien
  

  No, thats why i want to know pls

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  Ok...in a nutshell, a LIST is the names and contacts of people who are interested in a product or service that you have on offer.
  
• 

  6/4, 4:05pm
  

  Akan Essien
  

  Ok
  
• 

  6/4, 4:06pm
  

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  This enables a marketer to easily reach them again and again to market his other products to them.
  

  
  

  Bust most internet marketers don't know that they need to build a list, they just sell to a prospect once and part ways. Others don't know how to build a list. My video is for these set of people.

  Akan Essien
  

  Ok
  
• 

  6/4, 4:13pm
  

  Akan Essien
  

  So how can i get your video
  
• 

  6/4, 4:15pm
  

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  You still want the video despite not knowing about internet marketing?
  
• 

  6/4, 4:17pm
  

  Akan Essien
  

  Not so, i have known about internet marketing, but i have not started yet because of some set backs
  
• 

  6/4, 4:18pm
  

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  What set backs. I may be of help.

  Akan Essien
  

  I was introdused by an American, but i cannot pay the $25 to be a member, but my Nigeria card is not working
  

  
  

  So i dont know how to pay and start up the business
• 

  6/4, 4:22pm
  

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  What is the business about? I hope you don't get swindled off your hard-earned money.
  

  There is nothing an American internet expert will teach you that a Nigerian mentor can't teach you.

  6/4, 4:23pm
  

  Akan Essien
  

  No, its a network maketing business
  

  the name of the company is Empower network
  
• 

  6/4, 4:24pm
  

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  Network marketing, don't touch it with a long pole!
  
• 

  6/4, 4:24pm
  

  Akan Essien
  

  i have watched several of thier videos
  
• 

  6/4, 4:25pm
  

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  Leave the videos alone. You'll lose your money to your upliners, the people who register you into the system.

  I was invited since january
  
• 

  6/4, 4:26pm
  

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  I know hundreds of Nigeria that have lost their money to foreign MLMs
  

  Diamond Cash Club, Club Freedom etc.
  

  
  

  Leave MLM alone, they will sweet talk you to register, but to earn your pay, they will give you conditions they know you will find difficult to fullfil.
• 

  6/4, 4:29pm
  

  Akan Essien
  

  ok so, what should i do now
  
• 

  6/4, 4:30pm
  

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  Get a product or service to sell.
  

  Any internet business that does not have to do with selling, leave it alone.
  

  
  

  I'll advice you try website designing/hosting, information marketing business, affiliate marketing, or try Fiverr.
• 

  6/4, 4:32pm
  

  Akan Essien
  

  OK so how can i get somthing to sell or services to render
  
• 

  6/4, 4:32pm
  

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  Take for instance website designing. It's a service that you can sell. But to start, you have to learn it.
  

  Same applies to Information marketing business
  

  And indeed all real internet business.
  
• 

  6/4, 4:34pm
  

  Akan Essien
  

  So how can i learn those
  
• 

  6/4, 4:35pm
  

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  You have to start within. You have to decide which aspect of internet business you want to play in.
  

  
  

  I'm into Information marketing business.

  
  

  It's one of the most lucrative internet business if you know what you're doing.

  Lordson Imokhai Okpetu
  

  All you do in information marketing is to find a pressing problem that people are willing to pay to know the solution. Then, sit down and do a thorough research on that problem. Write your findings out in MS Word, convert it to PDF, and promote it to people you think will need it.

  You know, i never get the chance to thank you for saving me from the grasp of this MLM business i wanted to venture into while starting. I never told you, i stick to your advice on business choice; website designing/hosting, information marketing, affiliate marketing or Fiverr. I started with affiliate marketing, then added Fiverr (selling my designs skills) and now am doing very good with all and information marketing as well. I've made money from working my own time that i never thought it was possible.
  So i want to say Thank you for teaching and inspiring me, making me to get the knowledge of building business and being my own boss. Its a great feeling, i tell you.
  Thank you, thank you very much... Hoping to learn more from you.
