If I had a nickel for every time I have heard this question!
The problem you have is in the first three words of your question, “I am broke”.
This may seem harsh but I seriously doubt you are actually “broke”. You have a computer, an internet connection and from your picture you seem to be well groomed and dressed nicely.
What you are really asking is, “I don’t want to stop spending money on things that don’t earn anything, so how can I grow an online business without giving up these luxuries?”
Before I go any further, I do realize that some of the people reading this might actually qualify as “broke”. The harsh part of this answer is not meant for you, but you might want to take some of what’s below to heart, it might help your situation in the long run.
This is probably the number one hindrance to success, the inability to make a short term sacrifice for long term success.
In the answers to this question you have already seen several options that will get you to EA2 for as little as $20 a month. And yet, for some of you that $20 is “impossible” because you are “broke”.
To be perfectly frank, you probably are wasting two or three times that much every month. I say wasting because you spend it on things like cigarettes, alcohol, movies, TV, eating out… the list is long.
Before you go running off into the ether screaming, HE WANTS US TO QUIT WATCHING TV!!!!
That is not what I am saying, though it might not be such a bad thing. What I am saying though is to look for places to “cut back”. For example, if you eat out for lunch everyday, taking your lunch just ONE day each week can save you $20 or more. Making your pack of cigarettes last 3 days instead of two can be enough to fund EA2 and an ad program. Simply switching to a less expensive brand can save $20 a month.
My point is, look just as hard at where you can cut your expenses on things you “want” but don’t really need to survive. Doing so for a short time can have benefits that last a lifetime.
Change your thinking from “I am Broke” to “what can *I* change to make things better”. Personally, I “found” enough to build a successful online business.
