How do you think of new methods?

drstew · Nov 9, 2008

I think this might be a question for the guru's from the n00bs.

I have done a tone of reading on this site and man it is awesome. I took Friday off work just so I could learn new ideas etc. I'm also a DominateIM member (man another awesome forum over there).

Anyway from all my readings one main thing that sticks out is when gurus a explaining a method they advise on thinking outside of the box and creating your own method or your own spin on a method.

I believe in finding a mentor and doing as they do. So when you gurus out there want to come up with a new method where do you start?

Do you browse through CPA offers and think how you could create a method to use that offer?

Or do you mainly also learn from what others are doing and adapt their methods?

Thanks.

I would say its more of knowing how different things work on the net. Where can I get the most visibility for little or no money that will drive huge traffic to whatever I am promoting, a blog for adsense, a CPA offer, etc. You hitch a ride on the new hot sites. Another thing is thinking like a marketer, how can you reach people on a personal level and sell them based on their downfall of either ignorance,greed,etc. Lots of methods revolve around these principles. If you can think of something new and unsaturated that works then you're golden until others come up with it or see it themselves. If you have to hop on the bandwagon for a saturated market be a giant and take a small piece of the big pie.

I've also heard getting really stoned and brainstorming works for some people.

Haha I like your last line and when reading some of the methods and ideas people have come up with I'm sure they had been hitting the bong

One thing that I have found is that people that have been scammed love to tell / warn everyone else that they have been scammed.

This is good because the person that has been scammed is telling you the exact method that they were scammed. So you are learning the method and you also know that it worked

I think you're right to in relation to understanding the mindset of the target audience and knowing how to tap into the difference emotional triggers.

Anyone else have any suggestions on their method creation structure?

Sometimes I'll look through the list of offers and brainstorm some ideas on how to promote it who I can target etc,..

i sacrifice a goat, drink its blood, perform a ritual to the devil where i sell my soul to him, and that usually works pretty well

i'n all honest, just look around for inspiration. Untapped markets, areas which aren't as developed as they should be etc.

Well remember not to take the band aid off the back of you neck then

I think your right and the key is in the untapped markets. Also good for getting your feet wet.

I always start thinking of new methods from the source of revenue. Things that will make money will always come from a source of revenue.

For example, cpa offers is a source of revenue. Google adsense is also a source of revenue. Affiliate marketing is also another way to earn money online.

There are limited ways you can get your money from online, but ideas are limitless. The structure is just like a hierarchy chain. I don't waste time on things that won't get me money unless its for a social cause.

take 2 methods and try to merge them... thinking out of the box always is always a good start.

Trial and Error is my general rule of thumb and usually ends up with me finding a new method. If you think of an idea just do it and see if it will work. Don't just sit around thinking about it. I also take other peoples methods and ideas and expand on them by brainstorming and trying out new platforms and routes to take the method.

Usually when a 'guru' tells you that, they are still giving you the foundation to work on. They are telling you to work with it, expand on it, and add your own touch to it.

For fresh new ideas without a foundation, I always browse the freelancer sites and see what people are asking for. I see if I can develop something that will help them and others with the same types of requests. I get ideas from people's wants and needs as well as from what is popular at the moment [and how i can market off that popularity]

Its 2nd nature. Someone will post a post similiar to this and I get an idea

That is a good one that I hadn't thought of hitting the freelancer sites, thanks.

I think in short my question is what has been your main inspirations on your most successful methods?

Same here. Some people think that if you take an idea that it will magically work very easy and you don't have to work at it and tweak it. Just because something doesn't work right away doesn't mean it won't work. You have to make it work for you. Ive told many people my methods and some people get pissed saying it doesn't work, when I try to explain what exactly im doing and the differences between what they are doing....its like they don't want to hear it or its just too much work for them.

The more you work on ideas and tweak them the more you'll learn and get paid. Yeah trial and error exactly. There is a learning curve

Personally I find all my good ideas come when I am in the shower, mmm nice hot showerrrrr :: sigh of releif::

So in effect your like Michaelangelo and Dave, chipping away until you have a method that effectively works on a consistent basis bringing in those pretty pennies

i think new methods from my brain. If its not working (like windows crash) then i go to forums and ask some jerk to think for me. then i find another jerk to use it. then i ask another jerk to see if its working. then i ask another jerk to do it for me. thats how i get all new methods.

yes exactly drstrew but the most important part of my post is... shower

get in a nice hot shower and feel the nice hot water all over, then call to your lover say, hey baby omg I can not find my shampoo come and get it for me. Then you jump out the curtain grab him/her and have ur way with them

when you are finished continue the shower by yourself lathering away making yourself all slippery...
mmmm...
then the ideas will just come

purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr =^..^=

How do you think of new methods?
