Too much Hype!!

Last year, I decided that I wanted to work for myself, from Home. So I had a long long look at the industry - but it just seemed to be a mine field!!

Everyone offering to make me a millionaire over night, everyone wanting me to subscribe to their system... There was just too much going on!!

I tried a few, and learnt the hard way I suppose!! It just seemed like about 97% of Network Marketers were struggling to make any money whatsoever......

Viral Marketing is the hot topic at the moment, but many don’t really understand what the term means. As this is an internet based business, and therefore Internet Marketing, we need to look at it in internet terms.

You know when someone sends you a joke on email and it’s a good one you want to pass it on. From your mailbox you open your list of friends names and post the joke on to everyone you know, or everyone on your “joke list”, a list of people you pass jokes on to. ...

Some of the recent lyrics I quoted are as follows:

Rather than going off topic I find a quick break into inspiring art, poetry or music to be a stimulation, a sorbet...

"Vassago, in demonology, is a mighty Prince of Hell (see Hierarchy of demons), ruling over twenty-six legions of demons. He can be persuaded to tell the magician of events past and future, can discover hidden and lost things, and has a "good" nature." (Wikipedia)

Personally I don't pretend to be able to see the future (though I'd like to think people find I have a good nature)

However think about this.

Suppose you walk to a cliff's edge....

Everything moves in cycles.

We know this from what scientists tell us about the movement of the stars, and the movements in our bodies, even the weather patterns. Social scientists tell us they can now see and even predict these patterns in social behaviour.

So it is with marketing and sales.

With a recession in the UK, people are spending their money elsewhere. Did you know that in a slump spending on fruit machines goes up? And don't forget all those people...
