The world of internet marketing is a tough one. There are, what seems like endless opportunities to choose from, endless ways to advertise, and unfortunately endless competition. Thousands of people start an online business everyday. Why is it that some succeed, while others struggle to make a penny?

Getting started. The first thing that you need to look at when starting a business is what you are hoping to achieve. Are you looking to make a few extra dollars a month? Do you want to ease the struggle of paying the bills? Do you want to pay for your children's college? Are you really ambitious and you want to fire your boss? Are you thinking fast cash, or are you looking for something long term? Finally, are you looking for get-rich-quick? If that is your goal, you are out of luck. I honestly can not help you in that catagory.

GPT vs. MLM. For years, multi level marketing has been the way that a lot of people have succeeded in the business world. It consists of building a multi level business, comparable to franchising. You help someone else, and you make a small amount for what they do. Many people will tell you that this is a pyramid scam. If you take the time to look at the facts, you will see that most MLM companies are legal, accredited companies. The people who typically call these companies scams are the ones who failed in them. They don't want to admit that they failed, so the company must be a scam. Those people, usually, got in to make a quick buck. MLM typically is not a great way to make a quick buck. GPT, on the other hand, stands for get-paid-today. These are companies that tend to have higher prices items, which you make a generous commission from. These companies are better than MLM for fast cash, but do not offer the residual that comes with MLM.

GPT meets MLM. This is the dream situation. Imagine having your hands on a product that has a pre-made sales funnel, which earns you commissions ranging from $25 - $1000. That is the GPT aspect. Add to that a leverage plan that creates the residual that MLM offers. What would this business be worth? Add in some amazing affiliate programs to make even more money and things could start getting crazy.
