Building An Online Business, Focus And Motivation

Problems With WarriorPlus… Oh My!

I woke up today seeing everyone going crazy on Facebook because WarriorPlus had some issues.

Several people including me had just launched a product so you can imagine everyone was losing it.

Side Note: What did I just launch? The PLR Niche Squeeze Page System With Reseller PLR at https://www.TodayInPLR.com/plr-squeeze-page-plr You still have time to pick this up before the Early Bird Launch Pricing expires, so make sure you check that out.

Not me… I’ve been there and done that so many times that this is just another day running an online business. There’s always something going wrong, problems to face, and fires to put out.

The only way to survive an online business is when things like this happen you must first take a deep breath and calm yourself down.

You’re not going to help the situation if you’re mad and stressed out. Keep in mind this “issue” isn’t forever and it’s going to pass, and everything is going to work out.

Next figure out what you need to do to fix the situation.

If you can’t do anything (like in the current situation with WarriorPlus) then take 1-2 hours away from your work and find something to do. Something physical is a great idea. Even just a walk around your neighborhood.

This is going to get your “mad energy” out and allow you to come back with a clear head. Generally within that 1-2 hours the problems sort themselves.

Sometimes this is good to do even in situations you CAN fix. If you’re feeling super stressed out take 30 minutes and then come back and “battle the fires”.

Now, if you EVER have any issues with purchasing from me, accessing anything, or anything else please reach out to me and let me know. Sometimes I don’t even know about an issue until one of you guys comes and tells me, so I REALLY appreciate it when you guys bring things to my attention.

You can always contact me at http://www.LizLive.com

Okay, that’s it for today… Hopefully the WarriorPlus stuff is all sorted now (I think it is) and if you were trying to purchase The PLR Niche Squeeze Page System With Reseller PLR you should be able to now! https://www.TodayInPLR.com/plr-squeeze-page-plr

I’ve extended the Early Bird Launch Pricing 24 more hours incase there are more issues from WarriorPlus, but if the limited licenses are gone before that time the offer will expire, so don’t wait around for the timer to almost expire!

https://www.TodayInPLR.com/plr-squeeze-page-plr

Okay, that’s it for today… It’s Friday and I WAS going to take the weekend off, but due to some OTHER technical difficulties I’m going to be in front of the laptop this weekend catching up on some things I didn’t get finished this week.

This laptop lifestyle is great until technology starts dictating your life. Still worth it…

How To Get Started Making Money Online: A Step-by-Step Guide For Beginners

If you’re new to the online business world and wondering how to get started, you’re in the right place!

I’m Liz Tomey, an online business expert, and I’m here to help you navigate the exciting journey of making money online. Whether you want to build a full-time business or just earn some extra income on the side, there are plenty of opportunities out there for you.

Let me lay this out for you step-by-step. I highly recommend you get a notebook and pen and take notes or use whatever you use to take notes, but you’re going to want to take notes.

Let’s dive in…

Side Note: I have an online course called The Get An Online Business Workshop. This is a great place to get step-by-step training on starting an online business that’s perfect for you. I cover all of these steps and more inside. You can take a look at it by going to https://www.LearningIM.com/get-an-online-business-workshop-wp

Step 1: Identify Your Goals And Interests

The first step in starting your online business journey is to identify your goals and interests.

Ask yourself:

What are you passionate about?

What skills do you have?

How much time and money can you invest?

Your answers to these questions will help you choose the right online business model that aligns with your interests and resources.

Step 2: Explore Different Online Business Models

There are numerous ways to make money online.

Here are some popular models to consider:

Affiliate Marketing: Promote other people’s products and earn a commission for every sale made through your referral link.

Digital Product Creation: Create and sell digital products like eBooks, online courses, printables, or software.

Blogging: Start a blog around a niche you’re passionate about and monetize it through ads, sponsored posts, and affiliate marketing.

E-commerce: Sell physical products through an online store. This can be your own products or dropshipping.

Freelancing: Offer your skills and services (writing, graphic design, social media management, etc.) to clients online.

Online Coaching or Consulting: Share your expertise with others and help them achieve their goals through one-on-one or group coaching.

Side Note: Until you have an online business model picked out, there’s really nothing ANYONE can do to help you. YOU need to decide how you’re going to make money online… your business model. THEN you can get people to help you, but until you have this nailed down then there’s no moving forward.

I highly recommend you research what online business models are out there and start learning how they work. Then take your interests and skills and use them in the online business model you think will work for you.

Side Note: I have several workshops that cover several different online business models over at https://www.BackpackBusinessLifestyle.com Check there and see if any of those online business models interest you and then you can learn any of them step-by-step from me.

Step 3: Choose Your Niche

Once you’ve decided on a business model, it’s time to choose a niche. A niche is a specific segment of a market that you will focus on. For example, if you’re interested in health and fitness, you could focus on a niche like weight loss for busy professionals or vegan meal planning.

Choosing a niche helps you target a specific audience and stand out in the crowded online marketplace. Make sure your niche is something you’re passionate about and has a demand in the market.

Side Note: Want to learn to find the PERFECT and most PROFITABLE niche? Then you need The Pick A Niche Learning System! Check it out at https://www.LizTomey.com/the-pick-a-niche-learning-system

Step 4: Build Your Online Presence

Now it’s time to set up your online presence. This involves creating a website, setting up social media profiles, and establishing a brand.

Here are a few of the key steps…

Create a Website: Your website is your online home base. Choose a domain name that reflects your brand and set up your site using a platform like WordPress.

Set Up Social Media Profiles: Choose the social media platforms where your target audience hangs out and create profiles there. Engage with your audience by sharing valuable content and building relationships.

Develop Your Brand: Your brand is how people perceive your business. Create a logo, choose brand colors, and develop a consistent voice and message.

Side Note: I cover building your online presence (I call it building your business foundation)in The Get An Online Business Workshop at https://www.LearningIM.com/get-an-online-business-workshop-wp

Step 5: Start Creating Content

Content is king in the online business world. Whether you’re blogging, creating videos, or posting on social media, valuable content helps you attract and engage your audience. Start creating content that addresses the needs and interests of your target audience. Provide solutions to their problems and position yourself as an authority in your niche.

You’ll use this content in many different ways to attract people into your online business, educate them, bond with them and it all leads them to spend money with you!

Step 6: Build and Grow Your Audience

To make money online, you need an audience. Focus on growing your email list and social media followers.

Offer a freebie (like an eBook, checklist, or mini-course) in exchange for their email address. Consistently provide value through your content and build trust with your audience.

There are so so so many ways to build your audience. It’s a lot of trial and error, but consistently working on it every day is the ONLY way to grow your audience.

Step 7: Keep Learning, Adapting, And Overcoming!

The online business world is constantly evolving, so it’s important to keep learning and adapting. Stay updated with the latest trends and strategies in your niche. Invest in courses, attend webinars, and network with other online entrepreneurs.

Also, there’s a lot of obstacles you’ll be hit with. Technology, know-how, etc. You’ve got to have a “no quit” attitude and overcome EVERYTHING that is thrown at you. Without this you will NEVER succeed with an online business.

Okay so that’s the 7 main steps. Of course, there is more and it depends on what business model you pick, your skills, how you will drive traffic into your business, etc. But like I said… Start with finding what business model you want to go with and move on from there.

Here’s the bottom line… Starting an online business can be both exciting and overwhelming, but with the right guidance and persistence, you can achieve your goals. Remember, success doesn’t happen overnight. Stay committed, keep learning, and don’t be afraid to take action.

If you have any questions or need further guidance, feel free to reach out. I’m here to help you succeed in your online business journey!

Notes From Liz

I Pulled This From The Stuff That Works Vault!

It’s time to wrap up #TeamTomey month!

June was a great month and I shared a ton of my back story and how I got started in all of my online business adventures. I hope you’ve gotten a lot from it so that you can use what I’ve shared in your own business.

I shared stuff I have never shared before and I hope I pulled back the curtain enough to give you some serious strategies of your own use and mainly to show you that #TeamTomey and ME is totally here for you!

Reach out and get the help you need to create an online business that will fund a life YOU LOVE!

I want to share one more thing with you to wrap up #TeamTomey Month…

The other day I found a blog post I wrote several years ago about how I became Liz Tomey. The known name in an industry where when I came into it, NO ONE knew who I was.

It actually happened with a SPECIFIC viral marketing tactic and I share that tactic in this post…

https://www.LizTomey.com/blog/how-i-became-liz-tomey

Get a pen and paper and take notes because this is a tactic that has worked for YEARS and you can easily do it.

If you have comments and/or questions about the tactic leave them in the comments and I’ll respond.

From the bottom of my heart I’d like to thank each and every single one of you. YOU are #TeamTomey and YOU are the reason I do what I do.

Thank you SO much!

Here’s to another 20 years of #TeamTomey!

Publishing

2 Days Only! Come To Camp With Me!

For 2 years now (or more) I’ve been wanting to create and sell PHYSICAL products. But I want to do it in the most hands off way possible. I want to sell them via POD (print on demand). My plan is to do this as a “side hustle” because with all the online businesses I have I just don’t have a lot of time for it.

I want to do this so I can replace some of my businesses that take up my time. Basically I’m looking at this to replace a big chunk of income so I can have more time for other things. That’s what we all dream of, right? More-money and more time!

Plus it allows me to get super creative and I LOVE that idea. Dealing with some much “technical” stuff I don’t get to get super creative in any of my niches or businesses. 😔

I want to get into creating and selling t-shirts and other stuff like that, but I FIRST want to start off with books, journals, etc. Low content products mainly.

I’ve gone through a few courses but never did much with them. I have my prayer journal I want to create ALMOST ready. I have a children’s book in honor of my cousin who I just lost ALMOST ready. And I have literally hundreds of ideas for other things, but I’ve pulled the trigger on nothing so far with this business. 🤦‍♀️

So I’m going back to my go to low content and publishing girl Julie Coffman!

I just signed up for her Camp Wannapublish (just watching her promotion for this has been awesome… she’s gotten super creative on her promotion of this one) and I’ll be updating you guys about it as I go through it, inside the My IM Mastermind group. I wanted to invite all of you guys who want to create and publish low content products to “come to camp” with me.

https://www.LizTomey.com/CampWannaPublish

What really caught my attention (besides her clever promotion of this) was this part of her sales letter…

“This program is NOT about “churn and burn” and “GRQ.”

You’re going to learn REAL methods for creating HIGH-VALUE low-content products.

You’re going to be shown REAL strategies and techniques I use in my own business.

What this program IS about is starting and growing your low-content publishing business, taking action, creating and publishing a product, implementing tips and techniques that will skyrocket your creativity… and much MORE!

THIS is exactly what I need! I need to learn to get all of my ideas created, published, and getting them SOLD! 🤑

If this sounds like something you’d like to do, come join Camp Wannapublish with me.

https://www.LizTomey.com/CampWannaPublish

Then we can all sit on the beach, sipping our favorite drinks while our little low content products make us money. 😂 Okay, that’s not promised on the sales page, but this is what I’m shooting for. 😂

You only have until June 30th to grab your spot so if you wanna come to Camp Wannapublish with me make sure and grab your spot now!

https://www.LizTomey.com/CampWannaPublish

I’ll keep you guys updated on my time at camp inside the My IM Mastermind Group, and hope to see you there too!

Talk soon!

Notes From Liz

Thank You For Your…

I just wanted to send out a little thank you note today to ALL of you! ❤️

So, I just launched The Passive-Income Niche Squeeze Page System with Reseller PLR and I had a lot of great support on this one.

Side Note: If you missed that you can still pick it up at https://www.TodayInPLR.com/passive-income-squeeze-page-plr

From my customers of course, but also affiliates, those of you who saw my posts about it on social media and liked, commented, and/or shared, and even those of you who just opened up the emails and clicked.

ALL of this helps me and I wanted to take a second to thank everyone even if you didn’t buy. ❤️

I work REALLY hard to create content that you can use in your business. I LOVE creating and selling PLR content. I do other things too, but this is my absolute favorite thing I do in my business because I feel like it’s the BIGGEST help I can give you on your path to success!

I create my PLR content for me to use also. This isn’t just me slapping together some stuff to make some money. I’m creating it to-PROFIT and YOU get to benefit from that too.

I pour hours and hours into EVERYTHING I create so that it works to meet YOUR goals. Be it making sales, building your list, promoting things, content for your sites, etc.

Look, I know PLR that’s created by someone who knows what they’re doing is hard to find. Believe me. I spend 10’s of thousands of dollars on PLR every single year. Most of it is garbage. 🤮 That’s why you rarely see me promote other people’s PLR. I’m not going to put that stuff in front of you because I know it’ll either take too much work to be worth using or it’s just simply unusable.

So know when you’re buying my PLR you’re also buying my expertise and years of accumulated knowledge.

Anyway… I’m so appreciative of all the support #TeamTomey gives me and I just wanted to personally thank all of you who show up in many different ways. Every action you take for me… buying, clicking, showing up on social media, commenting on blog posts, etc…. ALL of that means the world to me and helps me do what I do for you.

Okay, that’s it for today… Tomorrow I’ll be telling you about an exciting “thing” I just invested in to help me with a “side hustle” I’ve been pursuing. So be on the lookout for that email!

Talk soon!

Notes From Liz

What The Heck Is TeamTomey?

Last week we kicked off celebrating #TeamTomey Month by taking a few trips down memory lane.

I told you about my first business I started when I was 19 and how I turned that into the online business I still have to this day 20 years later. 🤯

There were so many lessons in all of that and I hope you learned a lot and got to know a little more about me.

Side Note: If you missed those posts you can see them at:

Dinosaur Alert – What Did Liz Do Before The Internet? – https://liztomey.com/blog/dinosaur-alert-what-did-liz-do-before-the-internet

The $37,000 Story – https://liztomey.com/blog/the-37000-story

Now, some of that information I have never shared anywhere publicly, but I wanted to take you guys back to the very beginning. You’ll see why as we go through this month. Everything I will be sharing builds upon each other. I had to give you all the back story so you can walk into all of this with the full picture.

It still blows my mind that running my own business is something that I’ve done for more than half my life.

26 of 45 years! 😮

But my favorite thing that has come out of all of this is… #TeamTomey!

#TeamTomey started as a brand hashtag I was using on social media, but it grew into this huge tribe of people (you and me) that have one common goal…

To have an online business that funds the life we WANT!

It doesn’t matter what kind of life you want. It doesn’t matter what kind of online business you have or want to have.

We’re all in this together with this ONE goal and it’s all about creating something that allows us to have an amazing life.

My main online business is creating and selling digital products.

My amazing life is being able to work from where I want, when I want, and without having ANYONE tell me what to do.

It’s allowed me to raise a bunch of kids (some mine and some not, but I had a hand in raising them), travel and see so many cool places in what I’ve found is a massive world full of amazing people and culture, it’s allowed me to help my family time after time, and the list goes on and on.

Now you’re online business and your lifestyle might be something totally different, but #TeamTomey is all about helping you create that online business and use it to live that amazing life you want.

#TeamTomey is the online family you’ve always wanted!

We all congregate over at http://www.MyIMMastermind.com

If you’re not a member over there you can join at no-cost!

It’s our big mastermind area that works a lot like Facebook without being Facebook. We have a love/hate relationship with Facebook. 😂

If you want to join everybody over there, be able to interact with others just like you, and get help with any of my workshops, then you need to be over there.

It’s free-with zero strings attached!

http://www.MyIMMastermind.com 

See you there!

Copywriting

This Is The BIG Secret

The other day I told you about the business I started when I was 19. That was way back in 1998. I wasn’t even using the Internet for that business when I started it. It was a mailorder business.

If you missed that you can see it all at https://liztomey.com/blog/dinosaur-alert-what-did-liz-do-before-the-internet

Going through all of that made me think of the old Joe Sugarman ad for his Blublocker Sunglasses. EVERYONE and their brother points to this as the most iconic copywriting of all time.

Not sure about that, but it IS really good!

https://swiped.co/file/vision-break-through-blublocker-ad-by-joe-sugarman

No matter what business you’re in, learning to write words that make people buy from you is the ONE big skill you should continually learn about and put into practice.

It doesn’t matter if you’re just creating written content, videos, ads, etc… You’ve GOT to learn to write sales copy. Words that make people want to take action!

If you can’t make people buy your stuff (or click on a link, or subscribe, etc.), then you’ll never make any-money with any kind of business.

https://swiped.co is a great site to see some of the best copy ever written and have it explained to you. You can learn a lot at no-cost.

I’m not an affiliate for the site nor was I paid to mention them. It’s just that great of a resource.

If you want to get started with the technical side of learning to write copy there are only TWO resources that I recommend…

The 10:10 Salesletter Challenge at https://www.1010SalesletterChallenge.com 

And Psycho Profits 3 which you can read about at https://www.LizTomey.com/blog/the-sales-copy-bible  

I named Psycho Profits 3 the official sales copy bible for #TeamTomey a long time ago. It’s AMAZING and now with ChatGPT you can use it to quickly create sales letters!

No matter where you learn from though, writing sales copy… the words that make people BUY (or click, or optin, etc.)… is something you should continually learn and continually practice.

It’s NOT just a one time thing. It’s something that needs to be done in your business almost on a daily basis.

Well… Unless you have a lot of money to spend on a copywriter to write EVERYTHING for you. 😉

Okay, that’s it for today… #TeamTomey Month continues on and I’ll be bringing you more great tips, resources, and a little entertainment all month long!

Notes From Liz

You Said It… I Heard It!

The other day I sent an email out to all of #TeamTomey about where they wanted me to focus my teachings for the next few months.

The options where…

1. Me teaching you more ways to market/get traffic to what you already have.

OR

2. Ways to make-money online.

80.4% of you picked option #1.

Me teaching you more ways to market/get traffic to what you already have.

So that’s what we’re going to be focusing on for the next few months.

Side Note: I saw your feedback if you left it in the second box. Thank you for that and I’m going to be going over that one by one too.

Now I have covered all of these topics… marketing, traffic generation, ways to make-money online for the last 20 years.

I have a ton of products on all of these topics, but there is still A LOT I have not covered, so I’m spending the day today deciding what’s going to help you the most and in the quickest way.

I’ll email you tomorrow on my decision…

Until then enjoy the last part of your weekend (it’s Sunday evening here) and let’s kick off our Monday with a big bang!

Talk soon!

The 37K Story – I Was Hooked!

It’s finally June!!!!

Why am I so excited about that?

Because we have just entered #TeamTomey Month! I’m officially claiming the month of June as #TeamTomey Month and we’re going to be celebrating 20 years of you and me this month!

Now maybe you haven’t been with me that long… Maybe you’ve been with me longer. After my last email I found a few of you have been with me since my first business I started when I was around 19. I’m 45 now, so you do the math. 😉

And if you missed my last message all about that business and what YOU can learn from it, you can see it at https://www.LizTomey.com/blog/dinosaur-alert-what-did-liz-do-before-the-internet

Today though I want to take you back to when I started my online business and how I made $37K with it in just two weeks.

Here’s the low down on that… https://www.LizTomey.com/blog/the-37000-story

You’ll see that 37K I made was NOT easy, it really didn’t happen in just 2 weeks, and if I would have given up you and I wouldn’t know each other…

Actually my life would be totally different and it actually scares me to think of what it would be.

Make sure you check this story out because it’s going to allow you to see exactly how I got started and how it all started with a big success!
