Marketing programs

Never heard of either. A few minutes of Googling didn't make much of an impact on me, as they're in a world I am not a part of.

Here's what I think you should be thinking about:

Both of those things are somebody else's system.

You should be building your own system.

They are designed to make you a cog in their wheel.

You need to be figuring out how to own the wheel.

Whatever you do, if you want to make money you will have to find prospects and try to sell them something. Read that sentence again. Now continue:

You can either do that for somebody else, and give them most of the money...or you can do it for yourself, and keep most of the money. Or at least have a chance of keeping most of the money.

Sure, there are benefits to being a front line salesperson. You don't have to do fulfillment work, for example. Somebody else 'does the thing'. But if that's the role you want, why not go get a regular job with regular benefits and perhaps hourly pay instead?

Somebody else's system is not a magic bullet. There's no easy money out there: you have to do the work. And you can do the work on behalf of someone else, or you can do it on behalf of yourself. Your choice.

Are those courses teaching you how to do "internet marketing" in general, or are they teaching you how to market their system only?

Find a course on "Internet marketing" and "product creation" here in the WSO section of this forum, and learn how to create your own products to market online.

Once you know how to combine those two skill sets, you will know exactly how to package an idea and turn it into profit. Residual passive income streams.
