One of the main keys is that you have to give it time. I find that I can usually start winning, in an online league, within about four seasons or so. But that means sticking to a plan and staying persistant for four seasons.
Leagues without financials can be tougher. Sometimes a handful of established teams have a lock on the talent. Time is the great equalizer there, too. After seven or eight seasons, the complexion of the league changes.
