subject: There Is A Sucker Born Every Day - Don't You Be One! [print this page] There have been $1,000's spent on marketing software, and 1,000's of frustrated, unhappy investors. Avoid being one of the victims by using several commonsense rules before you purchase a software system for your business.
Move over Donald Trump, I am buckled up and headed to town! So what do you do when you are looking for a business to work from home, not cost thousands of dollars, and has a blueprint on how to legitimately and methodically build a business, rather your investment will drive you down to the local bar, have 4 fingers of Jack Daniels and drown yourself in your frustration!
After spending over $12,000 (that is conservative), I have come up with several rules to apply before I invest in any more get rich quick Internet marketing businesses.
Check out the reputation of the person making the offer. Google search puts a tremendous amount of research information at you finger tips. Find out about the person that is selling you a system. When looking at the sales page, how specific is the information being given to you? Is there a "contact us" button on the page where you can ask specific questions about the program. If you know someone in the Internet marketing business, send them the sales page and get their opinion of the product. Also, trust your intuition; does the deal seem to good to be true? If so, it probably is. Plus, you must have the right frame of mind.
Are you doing this as an occasional hobby or are you going to treat it like a real business? I promise you, if you have the wrong attitude, you are going to loose a lot of money and still be disappointed. The truth is, you can make more money than you ever imagined on the Internet. And the nice thing about it, if you have a passion for something, the internet can turn that passion into a business IF you see it as a business and really want to do it.
Whoever you choose to go into business with, and that is exactly what you do, be sure it is the right person. Like the most successful franchise such as McDonalds, or Starbucks there is a manual that takes you by the hand and helps you build your business, step by step. There are people that standout in the Internet marketing business that show concern about your success. Men like Jeff Wellman, Gary Ambrose, Mike Filsaime, Frank Kern, Keith Wellman to mention a few, have made millions of dollars in Internet marketing and now are sharing their systems with others because they know how huge this business is. Each year billions of dollars is being spent over the Internet. You can be a part of that trend as well. But you have to keep in mind that Internet marketing is fundamentally simple, but complicated to execute.
That is why you do your due diligence before investing in a program and be sure the people you are going into business with are reputable, honest and accessible.
