Do You Buy a Course and Then Dump Them Somewhere?

Desmond Ong · 11-03-2009, 04:56 AM

Hi folks,

I noticed I have a very bad habit lately. I've been buying internet marketing courses (I'm talking about those below $200) and people have been sending me courses to review as well.

And I found out that even though I paid for it, I didn't even start reading or viewing it.

Do you have this bad habit too?

Cheers,

PS: Maybe I should stop buying courses.

The logic I follow is this:

Do I have a need for the information on offer?

If yes:

Do I have some time available to read AND implement it?

If yes:

Does it appear to be good VFM?

If yes:

Get wallet out, invest in my future and put it down as a business expense!

ps. you and I spoke a few weeks ago when one of your sites was on Flippa...

Yes I used to be very guilty of it as well. I remember the first IM product that I bought was Insider Secrets for almost $200 and I only went through the first step: Finding A Niche after which it's collecting dust.

Then I went to purchase alot more IM products that offered get rich quick systems and again, did not do anything with them. I realised the reason why I bought and bought is because I enjoyed the feeling of "getting rich" with the purchase.

Now I've gotten serious with IM, as dotcomdude does:

I ask myself if this product is in line with what I'm doing?

Is this going to help me improve my bottom line (at the moment, it's $0

)

Currently though, I've stopped myself from buying anything and to use and implement what I already have.

Yeah we've done the same. And aren't they all too similar. What we have been doing is going back through our emails and seeing what we have joined up to and have been looking at them again and working out which ones will be the best for us to use.
