Click Millionaires by Scott Fox is the latest book for people hoping to make money online. I don?t know about you, but whenever someone makes the promise to teach you how to quit your job and become an Internet millionaire, I get a little suspicious. As someone who earns a living through virtual work, I know just how much time, dedication, and hard work it takes to be successful. I find that many of the books out there on this topic are nothing more than a step above scams.
This is not the case with Click Millionaires, but that said, make sure you read this entire review before pulling out your credit card. Disclaimer: I received a free copy of this book to review.
?The traditional American dream centered on individual financial achievement?where becoming a ?millionaire? allowed you to control your own life, afford anything you want, and live on your own terms. But today the phrase ?Click Millionaire? captures the revolutionary idea that lifestyle benefits like independence, security, and self-confidence?formerly only available to the wealthy?are now available to anyone who chooses to build a successful lifestyle business online. As you can see from the definition above, money is important to Click Millionaires, but it?s not the only thing that matters to the ?new rich.? Money is not the destination on you life?s road trip; it?s just the gas to help you enjoy the journey.? ? Scott Fox, Click Millionaires
First, before purchasing any book, I think it?s important to understand the target audience. In the case of Click Millionaires, you?ll find this book helpful if you are a beginner. Click Millionaires gives a great overview of all the ways you can get started making money online. He covers blogging, podcasting, creating videos, freelancing and more ? all good options for people unhappy at their office jobs and hoping to get started earning money online.If you are already well-versed in the world of making money online, though, Click Millionaires is not going to be as useful to you.
Scott?s book is great about giving you brief looks at all the avenues you can take for success online, but whatever you choose, you?re going to have to do more research to find out exactly how to optimize your time online. If Scott went into that kind of detail in his book, it would be? be thousands and thousands of pages! So be warned ? if you decide, for example, that podcasting is the right route for you, you?re going to have to become more educated about it. You can?t simply read Scott?s book and turn into a podcasting millionaire. What is great, however, is that Scott gives readers tons of resources for finding more information. He sets you up for success.
The most valuable part of Click Millionaires is Part Five: How to Find Your Niche on the Internet. Choosing a niche is super important to making money online, and I believe that Scott explains how to do this very well. I also love all the interviews he includes in this book. It?s great to hear about stories straight from the people who?ve found success online.
I don?t agree with every piece of advice in this book. In fact, I think that Click Millionaires makes the same mistake that make ?make money online? books and information products make ? it sounds too easy. Making money online is anything but easy. Can you do it? Can you become a millionaire online?
Yes, I think you can. But it takes years of hard work and most people will never get there. The people who have become overnight successes online caught lightening in a bottle. They won the Internet business lottery. So be wary of anyone selling you hope. Don?t buy Scott?s book if you think you?ll be lounging on your own private island this time next year. Buy Scott?s book because you realize there is potential to earn money online and you want to learn about some of the paths you can take to do this.
