The greatest fallacy about internet marketing
Did you ever get involved in a multilevel marketing scheme? You
know the process. A friend or a co-worker has ran into this cool
inexpensive product that is sure to make you a load of money.
All you have to do is pay a sizable entry fee and then commit to
buying so much stuff every month in order to qualify for your
big commission checks. Your downline was going to make you rich
because nobody would really resist to buying into such a great
bargain. The result was almost inevitably painful. You lost
money and you got stuck with stuff you did not need and were
never going to use. The question I would ask is this: Why is it
that the vast majority of people that get involved in multilevel
loose money? But more important than that: What is it that makes
those few elite multilevel marketers successful and ultimately
rich? Common sense will give you the answer of course. The
successful multilevel marketers have these characteristics. They
have at least some ability to sell, they work very hard and they
do not get easily discouraged. By now you should be asking: What
does this have to do with internet marketing? The answer is very
simple. In multilevel you need some ability to sell. On the
internet you must have some computer savy in order to follow
simple instructions, so that you can create and operate your own
website. In multilevel you need to work hard and not get
discouraged by a few setbacks. On the internet it is the same.
If you have had any experience spending money on internet
marketing schemes, you should be able to discern the fallacy
when you hear "You don't need a website to make money"!!! But
where did you sign and spend your money? On a website!!! It
should have been so obvious and yet many of us did not see it. A
multilevel marketer without some ability to sell has no chance
of making money. An internet marketer without the skills to
create and operate a website is like a multilevel marketer
without any salesmanship. People who come to a website are
already looking for products or services. However,notice the key
points of the last statement. "website" and "people come". These
are the keys. You need a website and you need to drive people to
it. Any other approach is almost certain to fail. For extensive
