Over the past few months, during my web design and marketing consultations in Dar es Salaam, I’ve encountered numerous business owners grappling, some still struggling, to generate online revenue—with little to show for their efforts. In fact, many have reached a point where they doubt the possibility of making tangible profits on the internet. If you’re nodding in agreement, today’s your lucky day—your beliefs are about to take a major turn.
Let me rewind to a few years back when I embarked on my first recommendation marketing venture. I was brimming with enthusiasm, motivated, prepared to go the extra mile for success…

Have you ever been in that spot? It’s no picnic, especially when you’re not entirely sure what you’re talking about. If you’re anything like me, most of your family and friends probably just chuckled and declined.
They might have said, “Is this some kind of pyramid scheme?” or “Sounds too good to be true, be cautious.” Ninety-five percent of them declined, and of the 5% that joined, none took action!
