Shoemoney Did Not Make Serious Money For 7 Years

May 2, ‘08

I see on all the money making forums endless line of people asking the same question over and over. “How do you make money online?” What people don’t seem to understand is it’s not easy, it takes a lot of hard work and patience. Not every business idea you come up with is going to be a hit. Don’t worry about “how to make money”. Find something that you’re interested in and go for it. If your idea solves massive amounts of people problems too, great! That makes your idea is even better. But whatever it is, you just have to pick something and go for it. If it fails, so what. Chalk that up as a learning experience and try something else.

The best example of this is Jeremy Schoemaker, AKA “Shoemoney”. People seem to think that everything Shoemoney touches turns to gold and he makes a killing with it. That’s simply not true. He admitted on his blog that he had SEVERAL failures before having a hit with the ringtones. How long did Shoemoney struggle and make pennies before having a huge hit?

7 YEARS!

Here’s a clip of the Round 5 Q&A on Shoemoney’s blog. He says it himself…7 years. So next time you become frustrated because you made a blog and are not getting 6 figure Yahoo! checks, just imaging struggling for 7 years. Most people will have given up within 1 year. That’s what seperates people like Shoemoney from the pack. It’s not that he had some original amazing idea. He just kept trying. The lesson learned here, NEVER GIVE UP. Your turn will come if you keep trying.
