Living paycheck-to-paycheck is the reality of many people. According to the Federal Reserve’s Report on the Economic Well-Being of the U.S. Households in 2017, around 40% of households could not cover a $400 unexpected expense.

Achieving financial freedom and being able to accumulate enough money to make decisions is a goal for many people as it means living life not worrying about how to pay bills or being loaded down with a pile of debts. Financial freedom is when people take control of their finances. 

Financial freedom promotes having a dependable cash flow and planning a long-term financial situation like having enough savings or investments to afford the lifestyle people wish to have for themselves and their families. It allows people to organize for future events, for instance, retirement. And it also has an emotional edge.

Financial Freedom and Quality of Life

Being financially independent means having more time to enjoy life -and more money to do it. There is an immense sense of relief coupled with the fact of being able to earn enough to save, spend on things we enjoy, and make ends meet. Now, add working online. The flexibility and the sense of freedom increase. 

Spending time with family, abandoning the rat race life, and especially not going broke for doing it is a common desire. Unfortunately, not everybody accomplishes financial freedom as many life events generally turn around plans making us believe that becoming financially free is utopic, a simple mirage that as we get closer it just disappears. 

The good news is that it’s not only a nice theory. In fact, according to Jono Armstrong, affiliate marketing expert and founder of the Ministry of Freedom, anyone can escape from the “Rat Race” and become completely financially free. It is possible to have enough money by getting into the online marketing business and building enough wealth than ever expected. 

The Ability to Make Good Long-Term Decisions

Financial freedom is overall making the right decision for the short and long-term. Financial security is being smart with money. A report reveals that nearly half of U.S. adults (about 47%) currently have credit card debt. In fact, most people are unskilled when it comes to noticing and warding off the long-term impact of their current decisions.

“This lack of ability to see and thus make better financial decisions can be trained. After all, trouble happens to everyone. But no matter what obstacles might appear, new opportunities might arise. Finding a way into achieving financial freedom is possible. I’ve always hated the idea of getting caught up in the ‘Rat Race’,”  says Jono Armstrong, who actually freed himself financially.

“From a very early age, I used to see my dad (a parish priest), enjoying the benefits of working from home and being able to have the time freedom that most of my other friends’ fathers didn’t have. I worked a ton of low-skilled jobs in my teenage years including stacking shelves at a supermarket, cleaning toilets in a residential care home, working nights at a steel factory, and also being a builders laborer and backbreaking fruit picking during a gap year in Australia. These low-skilled jobs (bordering slave labor), only cemented the fact that I had to find a better alternative,” he adds.

How is it possible then? Like every good idea, it needs a plan. Steps to follow along the way in order to achieve the main goal: becoming financially independent. 

Being fully committed to the plan is step one. Although many people might think that in order to have a plan you need to be perfect or to start from the bottom, Jono has proven through his life experience that turning less than an hour of work into a monthly passive income is indeed conceivable. 

The Real Get-Rich-Quick Strategy

Taking advantage of today’s proliferation of technology and global access to the internet is very convenient when developing a plan. Making money online is actually real. Millions of people are doing it each day, from freelance savvy marketers to rising entrepreneurs. 

The problem comes down to the popular get-rich-quick strategy that ends up being a scam. The Internet is filled up with people trying to deceive those who dream of freeing themselves from the paycheck-by-paycheck life. 

As in any other aspect of life, getting advice from somebody who has gone through a similar experience is way better. A person who actually started from zero and built financial freedom through a real online marketing strategy. 

Usually referred to as the “No Guru” Guru, Jono Armstrong is an internet marketer who after years of relentless search of how to improve his income, he discovered affiliate marketing. In 2019, his earnings reached a million dollars! And this is when he knew he had to share his secrets. 

He then developed an affiliate marketing course called the Ministry of Freedom (MOF), in which he passes on his expertise so others can reach the same success he has. In his course, Jono Armstrong teaches people how to make money with affiliate marketing.

Taking Advantage of the e-Commerce Industry

E-commerce has seen accelerated growth, especially during these last two years in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. E-commerce grew faster than predicted. According to a study made by Statista, “Ecommerce businesses should anticipate a 265% growth rate, from $1.3 trillion in 2014 to $4.9 trillion in 2021. This shows a future of steady upward trend with no signs of decline.”

Taking that into consideration, financial freedom can’t deny the E-commerce industry potential.  

Affiliate marketing is a good choice in order to build a profitable, successful online marketing business. This type of online marketing is a simple way to make money by promoting products and services online. According to BigCommerce, affiliate marketing is a popular tactic to drive sales and generate significant online revenue and it is extremely beneficial.  

Affiliate marketing represents a unique internet marketing journey as MOF puts it. It involves a wealth of information: launch jacking, software reviews, digital products, product launching, advertisements, email marketing, and paid traffic. This is the main reason, MOF presents unique strategies and mindset training for people who are looking to increase their earnings through marketing digital products, especially focusing on affiliate marketing. 

In fact, Jono and other members of his program are the living experiences of benefiting and making a profit from launch jacking, the process of reviewing an upcoming product before it is launched. The marketer, in this way, gets traffic from others looking at their reviews. 

Jono trusted his strategies and relied on them, that’s how he actually went from zero to a monthly income of $10k. No wonder he’s called the master of online marketing.
