Hey Guys! I need your help with this mission...

Hi Guys!

I'll just get right to it. I need your help with a mission
that's bigger than you and me.

===============
THE MISSION
===============

MISSION : Raise the consciousness of the Internet Marketing Industry, especially at the beginner level.

Here's what I mean :

"Make $30,000 every month without doing anything!"

"Make $1,000 per day even if you're just starting out!"

I believe it's headlines like these that has resulted in alot
of the people looking to make money online failing.

First of all, it puts us in an opportunistic mindset from
the get go and so the opportunists in all of us are
awakened.

Secondly, most people who are looking to "make money
online" have the employee mindset.

The above factors contribute to a very low % of people
succeeding in this industry.

I have taken it upon myself to change this and I'm
intending to get a lot of the Top Gurus to chime in
and say yes! There is a need for this!

Here's where I need your help. I need your honest opinion.

I'm coining the term Inner Game of Internet Marketing
which simply means the mindset and attitude Internet
Marketers need to have in order to succeed.

I have learnt most of it from years of failure (and thank God I
stayed that long in this industry and never gave up!)
and mentoring from people who are already successful
but most new Internet Marketers or budding Internet
Marketers have no clue they need this!

So, they begin to :

1) Get information overloaded

2) Get into Analysis Paralysis mode

3) Start procrastinating

4) Lose confidence

5) Buy products that offer the next big
opportunity and never take action on it

6) Start projects / websites /products
that are never completed

7) Don't know what niche to go into
because they don't know what they
even want to do.

After years of struggling through these problems,
I have found the Holy Grail that solves all these
problems when I read Dr Maxwell Maltz's
Psycho Cybernetics.

Recreating the "SELF-IMAGE" is the answer.

Here's the question :

Do you think our internet marketers would buy
into this new philosophy?

If not, how could we turn the tables around and
make sure they do because we all know the
reality :

Mr A and Mr B could buy the same Internet Marketing
product and Mr A would make $10,000 and Mr B
would make $0 - it's not the tactics! It's our minds!

I believe this is a pressing problem and I have the
information needed to solve it but I need ideas on
the angle to take so that this information gets into
the hands of as many Internet Marketers as possible.

Can you help?

    Dan Kennedy, Jeff Paul and several other prominent marketing
    authorities are all heavily influenced by Maltz's work. There's
    also a heavy thread of influence in a lot of the "how to sell"
    literature, since for anybody who tries to sell for more than
    a week realizes self-image has a lot to do with one's ability
    to do sales as a career.

    The issue, I think, is, as you've mentioned, that opportunity
    seekers often have an employee mindset and regard sales
    as "somebody else's job" - the problem of course is that
    in an entrepreneurial capacity the buck stops with YOU,
    and if you don't become the salesman for your own ideas,
    nobody else will do it for you without being well paid to
    do it.

    I think there may be "Psycho-cybernetics" courses you can
    take to become a licensed teacher of the method. The
    foundation is sort of spearheaded by Matt Furey with
    a commercial slant to it, but I believe it has the blessing
    of Maltz's family.

    That being said, it seems to me you're looking for somebody
    to show you how to make some money teaching positive
    thinking but you want to position your career goals as
    being sort of altruistic - which I'm fine with and it's a
    decent angle for marketing your ideas if you can pull it
    off.

    Personal Development material is not usually easy to sell
    because there is quite a lot of it on the market. People
    want "tangibility" more than inner growth... or, really,
    they want proof that your method will help them make
    a lot of money or become beautiful, popular and successful.

    In short: people will claim to be and often are sincerely
    interested in inner growth BUT in order to get them to
    pay for such training you'll generally have to lead them
    to believe they'll gain external (tangible, no-spiritual)
    rewards if they follow your system and pay you money.

    Hi Loren!

    Thank you for replying!

    One thing you said really
    stood out because you hit
    it on the bulls' eye.

    "People will claim to be and often
    are sincerely interested in inner growth
    BUT in order to get them to pay for such
    training you'll generally have to lead theM
    to believe they'll gain external (tangible,
    no-spiritual) rewards if they follow your
    system and pay you money.

    What if I'm able to point out to them
    that it's costing them a lot of money.

    For instance, how much has procrastination
    cost you?

    How much has jumping from one opportunity
    to another cost you?

    How much more do you think you can make if
    you raised your productivity by 200%?
