Some thoughts on internet marketing successes and failures...

[Jobfreetop]

When your wife comes home from day job and you’ve been surfing all day, don’t even bother saying hello, just respond to her that you’re busy if she asks and expect her to cook for you then go to bed so you can read just one more ebook in peace until the wee hours of the morning.

Whenever your child is using your computer for educational means, tell them you’ve more important things to do, then sit mesmerized for 8 hours without taking a break until at least midnight checking your various emails in case someone decides to send you ‘the holy grail’ electronically.

Weekends don’t count as holidays in internet marketing calendars, so make sure you do a twelve hour day of reading the latest offers on both Saturday and Sunday to avoid contact with your real responsibilities and the outside world – and you can miss church because you’re working remember. Besides, who needs God when you’ve got Willie Crawford?

You know all there is to know it’s just a matter of taking action. So, spend just one more day checking your emails in case something marvelous trickles through…like a sale on that $5 special you released on warriors 2 months ago.

Whatever you do, don’t trust the guru’s. In fact don’t even listen to a word they say. They might tell you something that works and you’ll actually have to put in some action.

When you make any money, make sure you reinvest it in that magical offer that came into your email which reveals some aspect of marketing you feel you should know something about…but hurry, offer ends almost as soon as the technique itself becomes totally useless.

It’s worth the satisfaction of making the “perfect copy” so make sure you spend days getting every word and every piece of punctuation, color, background, font, headline, graphics and everything else 100% flawless. And then go back and start again.

Doing something that may actually lead to success is more important than getting everything super perfect before your launch a test project.

Great post!

It should help some people get off the snide, whilst others will devise more ingenious methods of procrastination.

These are the best of times for those that use a proven model to work with and don't mind actually doing the work to make good things happen from them.

All The Best!

Thanks again,
