I took your advice, but the damage is done...
See, I started a dating blog with a friend a few months back. We go back a few years.
We used to go out every night to pick up chicks. We even made a short film together, which he wrote, directed and cast me as the lead in.
We put in maybe 20 hours of work on this thing, tops. I was showing him the ropes of affiliate marketing and article marketing a la Alexa, MYOB, et al., but our styles were clashing, and it wasn't helping our visitors.
I consulted with some people here on WF and elsewhere and decided to pull the plug before any $$$ got involved. He emailed me back and said some hurtful things, referencing the relative flacidness of a certain bodily protrusion of mine.
He invested a lot of emotional energy into the idea and I'm to blame for conditioning his expectations way high on this thing.
If you're new to IM and business in general, listen to the experienced Warriors on here. There are a few universal truths that always come around:
- Build a list
- Build relationships
- Don't be a d-bag
- Add tons of value
- Don't bring friends and family into your business life
etc.
Hoo-ah, I need a drink.
Cheers, Laurence.
