First, I wanted to thank everyone who submitted information on my survey request over the last 3 weeks. (Click here to see that initial post.) Unfortunately I wasn’t too surprised to see the list of challenges that many people are facing as they try to launch income-generating ventures online.
I put out that post to solicit some data and to hear from the field as to what is challenging people the most to make money online. I’m going to share the results with you today and give you some recommendations based on what I’ve learned, witnessed, and created myself as an online marketer.
The following list is ranked from the most shared challenges to the least… I’ve linked out to some posts that I feel may help with some of these issues.
- How to Create a Blog (NEW! I have a new “21 Blogging Essentials” Gift when you subscribe to my blog right now!)
- How to Monetize a Blog
- How to Create Content
- Time Issues
- Being Distracted and Overwhelmed
- Getting Traffic
- Lack of Mentoring & Confidence
- Lack of Finances To Get Started
- Fear
- Lack of Knowledge On How To Capture and Monetize Leads
As many of you may know, I came online last year and launched my blog last August, eight months ago. In that time, me, a completely clueless elementary school teacher, went from 0 to 40,578+ page views on my blog, became the top enroller for my network marketing company in my second month (now leading the social media training for that entire company), and had top industry entrepreneurs calling me to lead webinars and coach their top tier coaching clients… all in less than eight months!
But why? And who is it that helped me?
Remember, it’s all about taking action, acquiring the right knowledge and skills, having a healthy mindset and attitude, and surrounding yourself with an incredible mastermind team. The way that this all fell into place for me was by investing in myself, by growing a human being, and by hiring Jonathan Budd and Katie Freiling to teach me exactly what they had done to create their massive success online.
It would take me days and days to reteach what I have learned in regards to the challenges people are facing in the above list. But fortunately I don’t have to… I know someone that can put the pieces into place for you right now, with proven results.
So, what do I have to offer you? Well, I couldn’t have timed it better if I tried! Katie Freiling just released her (click here) Social Media Wealth Manifesto. It’s all there… the exact blueprint you can use for massive online success… if you decide to roll up your sleeves and work smart.
Remember, if you look at the TRULY successful people in the world like elite entrepreneurs, athletes, actors, writers, etc… they all have several things in common. They have an incredible drive to never give up, the surround themselves with the best in their niche, and they get coaching from the best as well.
Is that you? Only you can decide that!
All I can say is if you’re troubled by any of the items on the list I shared above, I highly recommend getting yourself a FREE copy of Katie’s Social Media Wealth Manifesto right away.
I still can’t believe that she’s giving those 44-pages away without charging for them! When you do, make sure and let me know what you think.
Now if you’ve already read her Manifesto, then I’d love to hear what you think below in the comments.
Thank you again for sharing this post on Twitter & Facebook, and I’m looking forward to what’s coming with her hinted Unified Tribe, too. More to come on that for sure. Keep watching this week as we look more closely at what she has put together to Revolutionize the way we do Social Media and Market online…
Let’s Transform the Industry Together,

10 Comments and Pings on Part 2: Social Media Makeover? Can Katie Freiling’s Social Media Wealth Manifesto & The Unified Tribe Be That Missing Piece?
Superb like everything you create/post/share.
Kary,
I’ve read Katie’s ‘Wealth Manifesto’ and thought that it’s a idea whose time has come. There are so many people trying to make money online and they don’t know which way to go, where to start or who to listen to.
Katie’s free ebook gives a couple of great strategies on how to lay the foundation for branding you. This is a key ingredient that most just don’t take the time to learn about.
I would highly recommend everyone to really study the first 5 pages and see why Katie is so successful online. The first building block is the story.

I have reviewed the Social Media Wealth Manifesto
by Katie Freiling and love the value in it so much,
it is a MUST share in my book!
And, absolutely if you consider any professional
today in the success arenas or stages there a far
many more who have invested in serious coaching
and much practice to reach the point of realizing
their dreams…
Why, it only makes perfect sense to tap into the
knowledge of others who have gone before you. I
am and thank you.
