I've Changed For The Better - Can I Get An Amen!

6 replies
Sorry chaps,

This is gonna be a long thread, but I just wanted to get something off my chest.

Don't worry, I'm not gonna get all religious with you (in fact i'm not religious at all) so don't worry.

I posted a war room report the other day (on backlinks) and the comments left and general feedback has been nothing but outstanding. Whoever has left a comment, I appreciate it and it has encouraged me to share a bit more.

Anyway, that's not what this is about!

I was astonished and surprised at the pm's I recieved asking me what a backlink was and how do you get them.

Guys, I nearly fell off my chair

Don't get me wrong, I realise there are a lot of new guys on this Forum and I'm the first to welcome them on board and help where I can. I just didn't realise just how many there were. Seriously, I had no idea.


I Was Doing It All Wrong!


Most of the advice I've given and some of the products I've created in the past were all aimed at the intermediate because I thought that was the bulk of the people on here.

Now, I'm no big hot shot (far from it) and I feel I'm always learning on here, but this seriously made me sit back and think. Damn, I need to have a quiet word with myself and make some serious changes. TODAY!

Here's my masterplan

1. Whenever I give advice or leave comments on these threads. I'll try to go into a bit more detail and break things down so that everyone can understand and possibly implement.

2. I'll try to make references to useful info online if I feel I can't get more point across properly. This will be either blog posts, news sites and even videos.

3. More importantly, and this one is at the top of my list! If I produce future WSO's. I'll make sure that there's either a basic or newbie section outlining what the person is about to learn and why they need to learn it.

For me, this is a complete focus shift and I suppose it's gonna take a bit more time with regards to product creation. However, I feel it will set me apart the average marketer to the one that's just after your hard earned $$$ and doesn't give a sh*t.

Do you get what I mean?

Now, whether this is the right road to take, I suppose only time will tell. I just wondered what your thoughts were on this topic and whether anyone else had experienced this line of thinking?

Also,

If you're new on here. What are your thoughts?

    I'll give you an Amen:

    Amen...

    I think you bring up a great point.

    It is really easy to assume that IM'ers are all on the same level of Internet Marketing. But that is not the case...

    Some of the comments I have read here at the Warrior Forum are sometimes over my head. And I like to think I have a fairly basic working knowledge of intermediate Internet Marketing techniques.

    You kind of think all of the Warriors have a basic knowledge of Internet Marketing...but I guess that is not always the case...

    For you to say some members of the War Room did not know what a backlink was is...shocking.

    This is great advice... and a great Master Plan:

    1. Whenever I give advice or leave comments on these threads. I'll try to go into a bit more detail and break things down so that everyone can understand and possibly implement.

    2. I'll try to make references to useful info online if I feel I can't get more point across properly. This will be either blog posts, news sites and even videos.

    3. More importantly, and this one is at the top of my list! If I produce future WSO's. I'll make sure that there's either a basic or newbie section outlining what the person is about to learn and why they need to learn it.
    Amen, brother, Amen!

    This is an excellent point.

    I'm a newb but even I know heaps more than all of my friends (who are very intelligent folks) and everyone else I personally know. It's actually given me a few ideas for possible products.

    If I can ever stop working long enough to work on them.

    Too bad there isn't a "sell your idea" site cause I'd be all over that. I have ideas for days.

    That was always frustrating for me when I started. I would buy a WSO, only to realize it was technically over my head. There was no indication of what level of IM it was meant for. Unfortunately, they ended up in a file on my hard drive.

    Now, when I go back and read over some of those purchased products, they make sense and are more useful.

      At least you can go back and read over your old stuff. I always forget where I've placed stuff and just have a mixture of different plr stuff all over the place
