LIES LIES AND MORE LIES THERE IS NO SILVER BULLET
As I talk to people who are getting started and even many who have been at this for a while, I can’t believe what they tell me about their experiences in attempting to make money on the internet.
Where do people get this information, no wonder the scammers are making out with these letters that get sent out stating I have a million dollars waiting for you from a long lost relative.
I agree the internet is the last level playing field one can make a living and have a presence the same as big corporation with the minimal investment.
The only investment I see with people is the investment of common sense to succeed.
Really are all the people I see scrambling to make a buck have they all lost there common sense!
Just the other night, someone told me in order to get paid by clickbank you must make 4 sales and it must be at least have 2 sales with a mastercard and 2 with a visa.
COME ON who is passing this BS around, I simply put it to that person that you mean if you made 1000 sales with a master card click bank won’t pay you till you have 2 visa card sales, honestly this was told to me.
I continually have conversations with people who dream they are going to make a product and get zillioins of people to do a Joint Venture and be a millionaire overnight.
First a word of advice you need to be able to sell your own product before asking anyone to do your selling for you, if your sales letter can’t get anyone to buy how do you expect anyone else to sell from a sales letter that does not convert. Again common sense out the door, actually if you believe this get out, get out now you will never be successful till you get it.
The other one I get a chuckle is
if I do this or that will Google ban me, I wonder how this fear got spread around
Actually I know its the black hat community that taught many in the day when Google was not so smart how to game Google, well today that is a different story, good luck black hatters Google is on to you.
Getting back to getting banned by Google if you are not doing anything wrong why worry.
A lesson to anyone reading, if you are going to invest anytime doing a real business go white hat, I learned a long time ago if I had invested in growing my business instead of trying to mess with Google my efforts today would be light years ahead.
The other thing, treat your business like a business.
This is a practice that is centuries old, the internet is not any different.
As James Brausch says only 2% are ever going to make it, the rest need to go back to there job you will never make it chasing a silver bullet. The formula to success is real easy, in fact to easy this is why almost everyone never gets it.
