If you're trying to make money with internet marketing then you probably know that all of the 'get rich quick' or 'push button riches' products out there are a load of rubbish, they may work for the creator who has put years into them in the first place or they may not work at all regardless of how much time and effort you put into them.The reality is that you need to put in the hard yards in order to make money with internet marketing, or in any business for that matter, so when you do and you get something in return, even if it's only a single sale, my advice is to celebrate your small victory!Don't worry if you're not making hundreds of dollars per day within a month or you're still working your day job instead of working full time in internet marketing, just remember that if you've managed to make one sale you can do it again, and again if you continue to stick with it.Too often people give up just before they are about to learn that vital final step to being successful or because they don't think success is coming quick enough to warrant the effort. Take a look at the history of practically anyone who is successful in internet marketing and although they may dress it up a bit I will put money on the fact that they have all had to work hard to get where they are today.Whether or not they took 5 years to get to the position where they were able to quite their day job or if they worked 100+ hour weeks for a year to replace their income from working two jobs they hated, I believe that everyone who can rightly claim to be a success in internet marketing has worked to get where they are today.So, what's the point of all this? Well, I am celebrating a small victory as progress has been made with a new stream of leads and income which I am happy to say has generated it's first sale. Now let me tell you it's not a big sale and there is a a long way to go, however I know that by putting in the work, developing and testing my approach it is going to be big boost to my business in the long run.Celebrate the small victories in internet marketing, without the small ones you won't be able to go on and celebrate when you have a large one, probably because you gave up too early! Just remember that whatever generated that small victory can be repeated over and over, meaning that you can grow that one sale into two, two sales into four etc.Internet marketing is not a get rich quick business, it's one that needs a solid foundation built on work, if you're not prepared to accept that and put in the hours your shelf life in internet marketing is liable to be short.
