By Stephen Okoronkwo

Its a wise business strategy in internet affiliate marketing to mentor others and to find a mentor(s). Mentoring is all about an individual helping another to achieve a goal. More particularly, something that is important to the mentee. It also strongly has to do with offering of assistance and support in a non-aggressive manner, in a way that the recipient will appreciate and value and that will spur them to move forward full of confidence towards what they want to achieve.

Mentoring has to do with creating a friendly environment through which one person can feel encouraged to discuss his problem openly and in confidence with the someone who is in a position to be of immense help to him.

A mentor will expose you to new knowledge and opportunities. I am owe much of my internet marketing success to mentors who guided me through the thick and thin of my beginning which is why I cherish mentors in every business relationship. There is a lot to learn from just about anyone and at the same time, some people have been kind enough to take me beyond what I was expecting to learn from them.

Mentoring can be viewed from many angles. In some situation, a member of an organization is assigned to take a new staff through the ropes or it can take the form of a conversation(s) that took place at the start of an individual's career. In each situation, the mentor avails advice, direction, and serves as a role model for the mentee. These relationships can be ongoing, irregular, or of very short duration; however, these interactions have a lasting impact on the future direction and decisions of the person been mentored. Many times these interactions provide a path for the success or failure of the inexperienced individual.

Mentoring in business which ca be online or offline is the same and it has its has existed since time immemorial. It is one of the best and advisable ways of learning a trade or skill so as to be successful. It's a great step towards success especially for those who want to put up an internet business quickly and affordably.

Many online marketing beginners know almost nothing about internet marketing. It is known that a large percentage of these set of people are grossly inexperienced and are soon out of business than they can imagine. Becoming successful in internet home based business will not happen overnight; the fundamentals must be learned and clearly imbibed. It is possible to get information from e-books and content filled websites but having a mentor gives you a clear advantage over other co-starters.

An online marketing mentor is someone with proven records of accomplishments over time. He must have the capacity and ability to guide you through the very beginning until you can walk your way through. An online mentor is someone who can spell things out for you. There was a time when the field of online affiliate marketing was wide open, but this is in many ways no longer the case. There are now guidelines, and specified ways that things are done, and this is not a bad thing. This can make your path to making a living as an affiliate marketing a lot better over all, and an online mentor is essentially a professional who can show you how it is done.

The right mentor can be your adviser, coach, role model and probably your friend. Expert affiliate mentoring can mean the difference between success and failure for an affiliate. Remember that there is no need to feel as though you are lost in a sea of information. Affiliate marketing is something that can be made more interesting with the help of a seasoned mentor.

Finally, you have to be careful when selecting a mentor. Remember that it is not everybody that succeed especially in home based business that actually have what it takes to mentor. They may have succeeded using illegal ways. It is advisable to go through the tough internet marketing terrain alone rather than with an impostor clad in mentorship.
