You Sow The Same Seeds, You Get The Same Harvest?

Is this true? Try asking a Scottish Coffee Farmer if sowing the same seeds as their fellow coffee farmers in Java or Brazil got them the same results!

Greeting Fellow Internet Marketers

Greetings and thank you for reading this blog,

I value your opinion, so can you do me a favour?

Can I ask you to read this blog and tell me if you like it? You need not agree with my point of view!

You will?

FANTASTIC - Thank you!

“People like people like themselves” - Nicholas Boothman “How to Make People Like You in 90 Seconds or Less”

If the same is true of blogs then you’ll be interested in this one if web marketing, web site promotion, sales or marketing in general is the sort of thing you’re into.What you need to know about me: I work in Internet marketing and love it.Does it interest you?One thing. Have you ever read those websites by self proclaimed gurus that say things like “How I made ten zillion (dollars/pounds/yen) in just 42 minutes” and asked yourself this question:

If he’s made so much selling anything other than an ebbok called “how I made….” Then …

WHERE ARE YOUR URLS?

(if you’re thinking that’s a bit of personal question, your URLS are the addresses of your websites!)

Or more like, your thinking WHERE THE **** ARE YOUR URLS? WHAT ARE ALL THESE FANTASTIC WEBSITES THAT SELL BUCKET LOADS OF AFFILIATE PRODUCTS, EBOOKS, ADSENSE CLICKS AND MAKE YOU ALL THIS CASH. IF YOU’RE FOR REAL THEN PROVE IT. DIRECT ME TO THE WEBSITES THAT EARNED YOU ALL THAT MONEY.

Stop, stop, stop…

Calm down, you’re going into a rant

But seriously if you’re not given those address then you DO have to ask yourself why, don’t you?Would you agree that there are three possible reasons (or perhaps excuses would be a better word)?

1. You’re not given the URL’s because, quite simply, there aren’t any. The author hasn’t made a penny online selling anything except her crummy ebook and a few affiliate links to her crony’s ebooks! BY THE WAY, THIS IS BY FAR THE MOST LIKELY EXPLAINATION.

2. The author does have successful websites selling everything from toothbrushes to online casinos, but she’s ****** if she’s letting you see them and how they work unless you fork out a small fortune for to go to her seminar. So basically your just getting ripped off with that ebook. Your buying it to find out how she makes her fortune, she’s marketed it as such and yet has no intention of telling you, for her its just a ploy to up sell you a seminar.

3. This is probably the hardest one of the three for me to explain to you. Do you ever get situations where you know the concept in your head but you just can’t find the words to communicate it? Well you know what I’m going through, so if this makes no-sense-what-so-ever just leave a message and I’ll have another go. OK, Reason 3 – THE GOLDEN GOOSE SYNDROME. Why she’s very happy to charge you for an ebook sold on the strength of her achievements but you will NEVER get hold of the real secrets. The reason is because she’s making money from keeping them asecret.. BUT there is a paradox. If she is make money out of knowing something which you and me don’t and then she tells you and me and everyone else then she can’t make money out of it and neither can you because its no longer a secret! If someone is making money out of a secret then good luck to them. Coca Cola, Mars and many other fortunes are founded on it. BUT personally I find it unethical to sell you an ebook knowing that either it doesn’t or it can’t give you what you want i.e. you want to make as much money and have the life style of the author.

So here’s my advice to you–

IF YOU’RE OFFERED AN EBOOK ON ADSENSE, CLICKBANK MARKETING, RESALE RIGHTS, AFFILIATE MARKETING ETC WRITTEN BY A SELF APPOINTED GURU, AND HE OR SHE DOESN’T GIVE YOU THE URL’S OF WEBSITES ITS CLAIMED PRODUCE ALL THAT CASH THEN SAVE YOUR MONEY for a more worthy cause. Hmm, maybe that nice Nigerian chap from the oil ministry that keeps emailing you…

P.S. Have you ever noticed how such ebooks always have $93.82 (worth $96,455.27 in brackets)? In who’s opinion is it worth that much?
