Who are the Creators and Who are the Mechanics?

3 replies
Hey everyone,

Don't know if you've looked at personality profiles much, however there is an interesting one called Wealth Dynamics that talks about where your strenghts lie.

And I'm curious to know in the Internet Marketers... who are the creators (I'm guessing most likely the ones who sell their own products) and who are the mechanics (I'm guessing the ones who sell seo services and do affiliate marketing etc...)

You see I'm a creator, I find creating products and coming up with ideas easy. But I too often create products and then just have them sit there and dont' sell them as I don't have an interest or the patience for doing what is required to then sell the products.

Does anyone else have this same challenge?

Are there any mechanic type people out there with the opposite challenge, can never come up with good ideas or find creating products hard but loves and can easily do what it takes to promote and sell products?

Interested in everyone's thoughts...

    Fortunately for me I consider myself to be both

    I make products and make an income selling products, and I make even more income offering services to people who need marketing assistance for their websites.

    I'd say my problem is a separate one which I'm sure many others face, and that's jumping from project to project without finishing! I always get a great idea for a new product or website, start the work, then get a 'better' idea and move to that.

    Anyways I'd say whether you're a 'creator' or a 'mechanic' you can always learn the skills you need to in order to be successful. Whether that's learning about product creation, solid marketing techniques, etc.
