i've been doing the whole "online marketing" and ecommerce thing more seriously for about a year and a half now.
My profits are small - 500€-700€ per month. But since I started from 0€ and most of the growth is organic I see that things work and I am proud to have made it this far. Nevertheless I would earn more if I did a full time "normal" job. No questions...
But my girlfriend is still very skeptical about the whole thing. Unfortunately... I made some mistakes at the beginning and talked too little to her.
She is simply a "Slowlaner". She has a very secure and very well paid job and doesn't understand how to do anything insecure - although of course she is also aware of how much money is spent on the Internet. But she only sees the "big companies".
I also don't expect her to be 100% motivated and to be as involved with the topic as I am.
I would like to help her understand the whole topic more and wanted to show her a documentation or some "beginner text". Unfortunately I find absolutely nothing good.
How do I explain the Fastlane to a Slowlaner?
I have got the impression that she wouldn't have any problem with it if I would earn really well... even if I would do exactly the same. She doesn't understand the process and wants the event "money" and "security.
Do you know the problem?
