The #1 Reason People Fail In Online Business

18 replies
I had a person today buy a product off one of my blogs and they emailed my support address a day later saying it had bad reviews. And takes too much time can I get a refund ! LOL
The funny thing is i used this MMO product and it helped me learn alot of the tricks i use today to be successful online. But straight to the point the #1 reason people FAIL online is they give up to quickly! That's it!

If you are familiar with Tony Robins he talks alot about focus, for example if you focus on a TREE when you're driving it's probably a chance you might hit a tree.
If you focus of SUCCESS it WILL come!!!

What I'm trying to say is if people just gave these IM or MMO products a chance alot of them do work if you finish the courses. Me personally i've taken at least 100 and they have all taught me something i use in my business today!

Please Comment and say your TWO cents :-)

    Actually this is not new to us that lack of focus is the main reason to fail in every aspect in life.

    I feel that most people fail online as so much of rubbish is being sold online and people who are new to IM, fall for the slick sales pages that they see.

    The #1 Reason People Failing In Online Business its because they don't take the time to validate the opportunity and don't know what to look for to avoid falling to scams.

      agreed! validate the market and product. do your research before you spend $$$$ trying to drive customers to your offer.

    I could also add that for genuine products / services, newbies aren't patient enough to let what they have make money for them, that is if they have done it right!

      Not taking action, INMHO, is the number 1 reason people fail.
      There is tons of useful information available on different forums but all this information is useless if one doesn't take any action.

    A lot of people are overloaded with the vast amount of choices and different sales pages, that they end up bouncing from program to program without allowing any one project to mature.

    I was a huge victim of "Paralysis by overanalysis" when I first started out in business until I finally just started TAKING ACTION and making adjustments along the way. There is no perfect plan or perfect moment.

    It's like following a diet. If you do your research (and add in a little common sense) any of the reputable plans will help you reach your goal IF YOU TAKE ACTION AND SEE IT THROUGH.

    It's easy to get overwhelmed and quit before you see results. We are a generation of instant gratification, which unfortunately means we tend to chase the next 'shiny object' as soon as it's dangled in front of us.

    Focus and Action are key.

    Could it be that your sales pitch for the product this person bought was deceiving and unrealistic? When delivery falls very short of promises, frustration sets in and the customer wonders if anything in the product is actually true, after all, they were just lied to.

    I can sell you a plan to make $75,000 in one day. But when you get the piece of paper that tells you to buy an unregistered gun, walk into a bank and shoot the armed guard, then demand $75,000......well I bet you'd ask for your money back.

    Maybe expectations by this person were unrealistic in the first place, but he never would have bought your product if the promises didn't match with his expectations.

      Hi,

      most people dont take responsibility for themselves and expect others to do the hard work for them! They just want the cash rolling in and others to build a successful online business for them.

    Focus and massive action is part of it. But they are flawed before they start due to a hampered mindset.

    Most people think they need to receive first then they will do the action.

    They need a fullproof plan that will succeed 100% of the time, take little effort and gaurantee riches.

    All of us logical thinkers know this doesnt exist, but his flawed mindset is what causes his failure.

    Create value. Get value. Not - get money, do some work.. maybe.

    Our entitlement society has sadly ****ed up 95% of people.

      Yep, agree, people want instant success and when it doesn't come, they give up.

      That along with scam or poor value offers and they become disillusioned.

      And there is a lot of hype telling them how easy it is, so their expectations are high.

    What does "give it a chance" mean in terms we can understand? How are we defining success?

    If used loosely, any method works for anything in life over a long enough time line.
