Important Lesson I Learnt From Internet Marketing Which Can Be Applied Offline As Well.

One of the most important lessons I ever learn in internet marketing - whether it is launching your own products or affiliate marketing - is that though you can make great $, you should never just think of making $ for yourself.

Truth is everyone wants to make $ to give themselves and their families better lifestyle.

But if you just treat that as your sole priority without taking into consideration as to what your prospects will benefit from buying from you, you ARE going to struggle.

And even if you do make $, that might not last.

The fact is people don't just buy from anybody.

They buy from those they trust and most importantly based on what they NEED and what they WANT.

And this same lesson can be applied offline as well.

Your product does not have to be totally perfect.

But it must deliver value to others based on their needs and wants.


Because that is what gets them to buy and you to make $.

Makes sense?

    I like the way Zig Ziglar put it: "You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help enough other people get what they want."

    It's certainly the right advice to run your online business by...

    Yes good advice indeed.

    From an "advanced spiritual" perspective, it can be said that opposition can only Stop things, to get anything done, you have to align with others and/or the universe, and that means doing things that THEY find interesting and get benefit from etc.

    The difference between a finite and an infinite game is profound . . . an infinite-game being a win/win game where the aim is to continue the game, so one needs to offer things which are of interest to others at that time, be willing to accept whatever happens (even if it is different from what one was wanting) etc. The book on infinite and finite games by Carse is excellent for anyone who wants to get into the details of such things

    Yeo, you'll start to see much higher profit when you really help people. They will continue to buy from you again and again.

    @amuro thanks for putting that out. So many people who venture into this business come in with the mindset of "I'm going to strike it rich" "I'll be driving lambos in a month" etc.

    Although that can be a good motivator to getting you started it won't last for a long time, especially when you start running into hurdles common with any business.

    You begin doubting yourself and why you even started in the first place.

    But if you adopt the value driven mindset and focus your business ventures with this particular perspective, it'll push you that much further into creating something worthwhile.

    You'll be creating something that other people will benefit from and will be willing to pay you for it. Your customers aren't dollar bills they're people with needs, problems and desires who need someone who'll be able to listen and address them.
