#17: Mark McGarry | Marketing is a Marathon and Not a Sprint

Engage with David Walker

Like many affiliate marketers...

Mark McGarry has had his share of ups and downs.

Perhaps more so than most.

After deciding he needed a change in his lifestyle, he took up long distance running in his late 20s.

He was a natural...

And won every race he entered for three seasons straight!

He entered the network marketing industry...

To promote a product he felt would complement his active lifestyle.

However, it clashed with his introverted personality, so he made the switch to affiliate marketing.

He found this a struggle too...

Until he took on a mentor to help him avoid burning out.

Add a period of almost two-and-a-half years where marketing took a back seat to nursing his paraplegic dog back to health...

And you can see Mark's online journey has been anything but a straightforward line from A to B.

Quote:

"95 percent of people's lives are a car crash most of the time but they're afraid to admit it" - Mark McGarry.

Mark McGarry Reveals:

- How he left behind a chaotic, vice-fuelled lifestyle in his late 20s to take up long distance running... and won every race he entered for three seasons!

- His struggles to introduce close friends and family to his network marketing company... made all the more difficult as a self-confessed introvert!

- How he persisted with networking marketing despite constant rejection, animosity from people close to him and three-hour drives to endless hotel meetings... until his car broke down and he didn't have the money to repair it!

- How he made his first high ticket sale as an affiliate... moments away from boarding a plane to Arizona for an event the company he promoted was hosting!

- How his affiliate marketing career took a backseat for two and half years... after nursing his paraplegic dog back to health and helping him to walk again!

- His struggle with the workload required to breakthrough as an organic affiliate marketer on Facebook... and how he took on a mentor to help him avoid burnout completely.

- Why creating your own offers is so important... and the difference between being a creator and a consumer.
