We’ve seen success with Google Adsense happen for people all over the world and yet, some people still struggle with it. There are more than a few people making enough from their Google Adsense ads to support a very luxurious lifestyle.

This post is not going to tell you how to create that level of income by using Google Adsense. This post will be a little more modest.

How to pay for Christmas with Google Adsense

Now depending on your current lifestyle, the amount of money you’ll need to make it a memorable Christmas for your family is up to you. Some people only purchase one gift for each child while others spoil their kids rotten with a plethora of gifts. And by the way, “plethora” is one of my favorite words. Just so you know.

In my family, depending on what we have going on, we can get by with a modest $1500, but would be able to do much better with around $2500. That buys Christmas for all four of our children, my wife, a single gift for our parents and one for our siblings families. And sometimes that is even too much. Our focus isn’t always on getting gifts, but giving them. Giving makes you feel more fuzzy inside anyway. Right?

Just as the title says, “The best kinds of businesses are the ones that bring in the money.”

The next best kinds of businesses are the ones that bring in the money, AND help your other businesses bring in more money. Wouldn’t you agree?

You probably know exactly what I’m talking about. But then again, you might not, and that’s okay.

In my humble, yet experienced opinion, the force that makes the world of business go round is marketing. Promotion! And you’re sitting there thinking, “I know already Dave. You’ve already told us that in almost, let’s see, EVERY SINGLE BLOG POST ON YOUR BLOG!”

I know, I write a lot about marketing, because my intentions are different. I’m here to show you how to become a true internet marketer, not just a home based business owner who wants to promote their business online. Can you blame me?

So on with the main idea of this post.

If you’re having trouble recruiting others into your business, when all else fails, just cry. Let me explain why.

In my last post I told a story of my wife’s recent recruitment into a home based business. But in case you weren’t able to read it, I’ll tell you the story again.

But before I tell you the story, I want you to know that my wife had no intention whatsoever in joining the opportunity she is now part of. The only thing she wanted was to get her product for free. And the deal was, if you can get three others to buy the same package you want, you can get yours for free.

That was her plan.

So, she planned the home party and invited a handful of her friends to check out the product with her. Several women were interested because the product is related to the health and wellness industry and helps you to lose weight. So naturally, women come flocking, right? I know, if you’re a woman and you’re reading this, you probably just called me a jerk.

It’s Monday, you just put gas in your car and need to pick up some groceries. In order to do this, you decide to put only ten bucks in the tank instead of just filling it up so that you’ll have enough left over to buy the groceries. When you return home from shopping, checking your bank account shows a balance of $25.

Pay day isn’t until Friday…..

Sounding familiar? Living paycheck to paycheck.

How about another one?

It’s been over a year since you’ve left town for anything other than work reasons. Your social life stinks because when you’re invited out for dinner and a movie by friends or family, you have to turn them down. You’re lucky if you eat out at a restaurant at all during a months time. However, as a nice gesture, instead of letting you off the hook, they offer to pay for your dinner. As if you didn’t already feel low enough, to avoid letting the cat out of the bag, you make up some other clever excuse as to why you can’t go out.

If you were one of the many who were affected by the shut down of Zeek Rewards, you’re probably wondering what the heck happened. And to be honest with you, I really have no idea what happened. However, I do know this…..I know that there are people in this world who consider it their personal responsibility, to destroy the network marketing industry.

If you’ve ever been to a network marketing complaint forum, you’ll find full time idiots on there who bounce around from one topic to the next, just trying to suck you into an argument.

It seems that these people have nothing else to do, and some of these guys make a good living out of it. What a world, right? If I see an opportunity to gain by suing you or shutting down your company, it’s all good!

If you’re someone who has ever been involved with network marketing, you’ve probably heard someone on a training call tell you about “income producing activities.” And along with that, they gave you the understanding that if you didn’t focus primarily on doing those activities, over everything else, then your business would fail miserably.

Absolutely true! As entrepreneurs, we want to keep ourselves busily engaged in activities that will grow our business. In doing so, it’s imperative that we’re conscious of which activities are actually helping our business progress instead of restricting it.

Now you might be saying, “What in the heck are you talking about Dave? That makes no sense at all!” I would tell you that you might be right, BUT, I can explain myself a bit here. So bear with me.
