When is this industry going to grow up? (IRONY WARNING)

3 replies
I just can't believe what I see in the inner IM incest pool these days.

Not only are you batting away total scams, but you're now faced with people attacking the total scams with a parody video:

Above the Matrix

Which ironically, uses the exact same approach as the original scams they were parodying... you couldn't make this stuff up if you tried.

But that's fair enough, providing the product is legit, right?

Ooops...

When will this inner clique of online marketing grow up, and realize that it's not all about sales... it's about sales, low refunds and reputation?

Why put your name to anything less?

Marketers like Chris Rempel get it right... they create great products, cut the hype (but still sell very effectively) and ultimately generate a loyal following who act as a viral marketing tool for him.

I just don't get why you'd want to do anything other than this.

Shaking my head at this ridiculous side of the industry.

    Nick, I agree with you... unfortunately, you have to be a complete dipsh*t to actually fall for something like this.

    I hate to say it, but the people on that thread actually thought they were going to be banking big bucks for no work.

    Anyway, I hate to rant about "gurus" and scammy Clickbank pages... but I don't think anyone's going to face the truth (work) any time soon.

    Well, either people think that they can make money with no work, and try to scam, a very shortsighted approach as you said. Or they have no moral dilemmas about scam whatsoever.

    What I find ironic about the second group is, with all the hard work they put in scamming people, they could of made something of quality, and have a long term business instead of doing scam after scam.

    And in the end, no matter how bad the product is, people may actually find value in it. I know there are much better and cheaper ones out there, but it is a bad quality in people to always want to get much of something instantly, for no effort on their part, and to actually believe that it is possible, except in very rare occasions.

    I make my own luck. That means I am fully responsible for everything that happened or is going to happened in my life.

    I guess they have never heard the old saying, "What goes around comes around" and never connect the dots when something bad happens to them.

    Laws of the universe work.

    You don't have to believe them.

    You don't believe in gravity but you jump off of a high rise and you splatter.
