Internet Marketing Wisdom

What I’m going to tell you within the next few  posts isn’t going to be all sweetness & light. It is going to be cold hard facts that you might not like to hear. Regardless I’m going to tell you anyway because I think it’s high time you know the truth and stop wasting your time on a bunch of half-ass products that don’t or can’t do a thing for you to get you hopping on the fast track to success.

First though, you need to understand that when I say “fast track to success” I DO NOT mean you will be making hundreds, thousands or millions of dollars by tomorrow night.

You have just about as much chance of that as winning the lottery.

I told you this wasn’t going to to be some happy “sugar-coated” fairy land. This is the cold hard world where you see the truth in it everyday for precisely what it is. Good or bad. That’s what you’re going to see here too.

I hope that by the time you finish reading this and my next post, you will have a clearer understanding of how the Internet Marketing industry works and the things that merit your time within it.

1. Don’t Believe Everything You Read.

You’re about to learn why this little tid bit of information tops my list of “Don’ts”. The internet is a vast, and I do mean vast, source of information plastered all over the place. The internet marketing field is no different. You’re likely to see 2,000 products all on the same subject. Each one of the authors claiming that THEIR product is better than all the rest because of x-y-z reasons.

Let me explain something to you right now before I continue on…

Internet marketing is just like a magic trick. Every Internet Marketer that’s worth their weight in hundred dollar bills knows that it’s all in the presentation. Just like a magician. I mean, if you could sneak backstage and see how the magic is performed, you’d lose interest in the actual trick.

My point is this…

If you knew what these top Internet Marketing pors did to create the “smoke-and-mirror” effects, then the product they were advertising would seem less than amazing.

Now, for your REAL education. Here’s some of those “smoke-and-mirror” effects so that you can learn to see past them and use the tricks yourself:

- EXPIRING OFFERS. Sometimes it’s real, sometimes it’s bogus.
More often thannot though, it’s bogus. This excludes those offers
deemed as firesales. Those really DO have an expiry. Still, it is a
sales gimmick to get you to buy now.

- LIMITED INTRODUCTORY OFFER. Usually this is simply a trick to
get you motivated to purchace a vendor’s product. On occassion, a vendor
will raise their prices, but not normally.

- A COMPELLING LIFE STORY. Internet Marketers use this trick to
believe that they are living “high on the hog” and have been made multi
-millionaires through their efforts of creating and selling information
products online. And they are willing to “share these secrets of wealth”
with you, for a price. Of course, those searching for easy ways to make
more money, or become millionaires themselves will more than happily
plop down the bucks.

- FACTS AND FIGURES. Yes, some sales materials will contain what
you are lead to beleive are real examples of income earned through the
particular program they are trying to peddle. But, with image editing
programs such as Adobe Photoshop, anyone can “doctor” up an image that
reflects so called “real earnings”. Again, some are real, and others are
made up to get you hooked enough to close the sale. Notice too that any sales page that contains “actual” facts or earning income figures will
also carry disclaimers that “the results represented here are not typical”, or some other type of legal material to keep the seller out of
“hot water” with people who expect the “moon”.

2. Don’t Believe That You Can Log Onto The Internet And Be
A Cash Powerhouse After Putting In 15 Minutes Of Work.

Simply put…

It Aint Gonna Happen. Period.

Notice the very last word in the titled reason. WORK. Doing it online is just as time
consuming, a pain in the ass, and task oriented as an offline job is. Sometimes it’s even more of those aformentioned things!

When you sell something and keep the money for yourself, you are a self employed
entrepreneur. You are running a business with you heading up the company. A sole
proprietor. That’s YOU.

In fact, most Internet Marketers, or those running a small online business wear several
different job “hats”. Once you’ve been at it for a while, you will learn this overlooked fact.
There’s no “magic bullet” or pill that will magically transform you into a multi-million dollar
earner overnight. If there was, I would line up to get a few of them myself!

3. Don’t Buy Every Resale Rights Product You See For Sale
And Think You’ll Be Rolling In Dough Afterwards.

I honestly believe every newbie goes through this stage of the game. Then they figure out
that buying everything that is “new” to them isn’t so new to others who have been in the
Internet Marketing business for a while. In the process, they learn the cold, hard truth of the
matter. They should have done some research before plunking down their cash. but, at that
point, it’s too late. Money spent. Lesson learned.

Yes, it is true that you will need to purchase products that you can resell for profits, but you
really need to know which ones are worth your money. Don’t go buying up crap you see on
sale at eBay for a buck and think you’re gonna turn around and sell it for 5 dollars a pop.
This is completely unrealistic. Think about it. Why would someone buy from you at a more
expensive price when they can buy it just like you did for one single “George Washington”

Whether you’re a newbie or not, I’m telling you right now…

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY

You don’t have to. Invest in a resale rights membership site. Again, NOT THROUGH EBAY.
They simply aren’t worth even the “less than $10″ price tag placed on them. Take it from
someone who’s already been down this road and learned the expensive way.

I’m going to tell you this once and I want you to ingrain it into your brain.

YOU WILL NEVER NEED MORE THAN 3 MEMBERSHIPS AT ONE GIVEN TIME

And THAT is the MAXIMUM. I will tell you what 3 sites I have chosen to remain a loyal subscriber of and that have more than been worth my money and time. And they have consistently brought me in profits with the products that they supply to me without fail.

1. Aaron Danker’s – Platinum Resell Rights

In a word, FANTASTIC Aaron goes to great lengths to provide his members with top quality products with graphics that are second to none in my view. Every month on the 15th two brand new products are available for download, there is also a ton of bonus downloads inside the members area.

2. Khai Ng’s – Self Improvement PLR

Now I have already done a post about this HERE, but to recap.  Not only is it targeted in a lucrative, money pumping niche like self improvement and personal development, the products are also top notch and his products are purchased by big names such as David Cavanagh, Jeremy Gislason, Simon Hodgkinson, Edmund Loh, Ian Del Carmen, John Delavera and many more..

3. Jeremy Gislason’s SureFireWealth

If you don’t find something inside the other two sites, you’ll find it here. Jeremy is a crazt nut! He offers three different versions of membership, free, silver and gold. Obviously the metallic memberships do cost money, but are well worth it as you have access to more top notch products that the free members don’t. My advice, go for gold. You get access to absolutely everything inside the members only area of his site and can download what you please. Jeremy has such a vast array of products that not only does he include those with resale rights, but also some with private label rights too. It’s damn good value for the pittance that Jeremy is asking for.

Of course, to be frankly honest with you, I have many more subscriptions than just those three listed above. However, those three are the ones that I will stick with on down the road.

Now, you would probably bust a gut if I told you just how many membership sites I belong to. And believe me, I’m paying out the nose for them too. Average cost is around $27 a month membership fees. And that is the average. Some are more, some are less, but believe me when I tell you that I’m paying out several hundred dollars every month for access to them. Now you don’t have to, and I suggest you do not. There’s no need to! Unless you are a resale rights addict like me.

Find only 2, or even 1 to begin with. That’s all you need first starting out. I suggest you go with one of those listed above.

Now I think I have gone on long enough with this post of wisdom, believe me I put this all down on paper first and there is a lot more to come.
