| I love the Cisco Systems ad where kids are connecting from all over the world. "We Are The World" is a hit song close to many hearts. Even "I'd love to teach the world to sing..." and if you're young enough not to know those older songs, go to an online dictionary and get the scoop. Or use the search engines. It's all good.As an affiliate marketer looking for a career builder, there is an overwhelming plethora of data.Holly Mann's "Honest Riches" gives the best step-by-step I've found yet. There are many MANY ebooks available, affordable, and useful out there, but everyone who can do cannot necessarily teach. Holly Mann can teach. As I have taught, myself, for over 20 years, I know that explaining the basics of a procedure can be painstaking. Knowing WHAT you did to get to step "whatever" is not an analytical process for many. I would have to say because Holly is so young, she's a natural, and she does not waste a minute of your time. No filler folks! And there are others too - hit the search engines and get ready for the deluge!The "niche" product, the search engines - the affiliate marketer - go to your on line dictionary to get a real sense of the language that is new to you and THEN go back to what YOU are really interested in. What would your personal product be if you could snap your fingers and have it there, digitally ready to go? An ebook on music lyrics? An online dictionary on fly-fishing or ballet shoes? Car racing? What do you think about when you are day-dreaming? (Professionally speaking!) And could this interest/passion of yours put money in the bank?Well, if your personal heart-felt energy is behind the subject, I'd say check it out! I'm not going to repeat what the gurus have written about internet marketing, but take the advice that is readily given, and do a key word search around everything to do with your great interest and then take the path of least resistance.Write an article about your beloved subject and submit it to a few on line ezines. (Holly even tells you the best ones and so do other marketing gurus). You can start with the one you're reading right now!If you do decide that internet marketing can be a career builder for you, you will want to get used to writing about your topic. Just talk to people. You do not want to be academic about 'it' anyway, but personable and approachable. Check out blogger.com or wordpress.com for a blog and just start communicating. No matter how learned and how expert you get it is YOUR VOICE and your enthusiasm that will sell your product, or someone else's product (assuming you do learn some basic internet marketing techniques).So while you have a day job (or parental support) start exploring, get some professional info, and start talking to people, that is, writing articles on your favorite topic. Get those fingers tap dancing on the keys. If you are reading this, you are probably going to enjoy the process as much as the results.It's the journey that counts. I didn't say that and I don't remember who did. But I think it is true.So, use your on line dictionary to learn the new, try out some good authors to earn honest riches, and start writing your own articles! Through the search engines you can find ANYTHING! I also think that is true. The internet amazes me.Dianne M. Buxton is a graduate of the National Ballet School of Canada.
