The Online Business Journal is important because it tells a story. I just finished telling a story about how my car promo is really helping me to meet people, along with artificial intelligence. And I forgot to say — artificial intelligence helped me make the car promo. So I'm teaching people a lesson about why they need a car promo through my Online Business Journal. I'm telling a story about what happened to me this week, and how these good things happened to me in my business.
That's the journal. I'm journaling my business success, the things I'm doing wrong, the things I've learned, how I've grown, the things I'm good at — everything, you know? So if you're a person who wants to make money online, follow me. I'm going to tell you everything you need to know to be successful in business.
As Real As You Can Get
This is a real look — as real as you can get. I'm not going to tell you everything, because I shouldn't. But I'm going to tell you a lot more than most people will ever tell you about business and about making money online. How easy it is, and also how hard it is. Because both are true for you.
It might be a lot easier for you to make money online than it has been for me. So don't fall into the negative attitude of looking at someone else's success — or lack of success — and thinking your path is going to be the same. People do that.
It's taken me a lot longer to be successful in online business than it should have, because of the things that have happened in my life — things I'm still fighting, actually. But I've done a lot of great things in online business, and I continue to do great things. Over the past 18 months, my business has hit new heights in sales and YouTube subscribers. So I'm telling you everything you need to know, and I'm about to break out and blow up way past my achievements of the past 18 months.
For the Doubters
And the people who rejected me, who looked down on me, who did not believe in me — whether it was because of my race or my struggles — people do that. Even people who are African American look down on me because they think I can't do it. But they're going to look back and say, “Man, I should have taken the offer he gave me to check out his business or product. I should have actually called him when he gave me his business card. I should have called that number when I saw him drive by. I should have gone to his website.”
But they didn't believe in me — and that's okay. It's all good. I'm not doing this for them. I'm doing this for me, for God, and for my family.
What It Takes to Make It
And that brings me to an important part of the Online Business Journal. Over the years, I've figured out that to make it in any kind of business, you have to be a special kind of person. You have to have the right attitude and demeanor. There are certain traits you will need to have — or acquire. Things like patience, curiosity, vision, and tenacity.
So I share with people what to expect when they start their online business journey. So they won't give up before they succeed. So they won't overtire themselves by going too fast instead of pacing themselves.
The Journey: Highs, Lows, and Everything In Between
That's what the Online Business Journal is all about — the journey. The ups and downs, the highs and lows. The first sale. The five bad rejections. The time you almost quit, and the day you had breakout affiliate sales. It's me journaling everything you need to know about online business.
You're not going to get this anywhere else. I don't think anyone will be as real with you as I'm being right now. And quite frankly, people are selfish. They don't want you to know how to be successful — and sometimes they're afraid you're going to be better than them. I don't have those problems, because I know that I'm unique.
The Secret: There's Nobody Like You
There's nobody like me — and that's how you become successful in online business, for the most part. Don't try to be like somebody else. What do you like? What do you enjoy? What do you want to talk about? What do you do every day that you'd like to share with the world? That's the power of your online business. And that's what the Online Business Journal is all about.
AI Breakdown: The Case For and Against a Business Journal
This is an internet marketing and online business website, where we like to give you nuggets of knowledge. And we love to use AI to gather that knowledge quickly and efficiently — then check it against what we've actually lived. So here's the straight breakdown on business journaling.
On the upside, a journal is the one type of content artificial intelligence can't fake, and search engines know it — in December 2022, Google added “Experience” to its quality framework specifically to reward content produced by someone who actually used the product, visited the place, or lived the story. It builds trust on a slow fuse, giving you dozens of touches a year with the same reader instead of one, so that by the time you recommend something, the selling already happened quietly over months. It attracts help, because a problem published is a problem strangers can solve for you. And it pulls in people searching for the problem rather than for your name — readers who would never have found you otherwise.
The downside is just as real. A journal published irregularly is worse than no journal at all, because inconsistency signals a business that isn't working — the founders who quit after two weeks get none of the benefits. It can slide into performance, where you start living your business for the story instead of for the profit. And it requires a level of honesty most people can't sustain, because the day you start editing out the failures is the day the whole thing stops being worth reading.
The verdict: high leverage, low cost — but only if you commit to a cadence and tell the truth on the bad weeks.
Begin Your Own Journey
I invite you to begin your internet marketing journey. Internet marketing is the art of creating content online — whether it be blogs, pictures, or videos — and turning your content into income. Usually this is done by giving some kind of value to others: entertainment, laughs, conversation, insight, or helping people find the products and services they love.
