Internet Marketing is a Guru Business!
Like it or not it's:
BECAUSE YOU WANT IT TO BE
It's that simple.
This is not a rant, I just want to share this as a way of looking at things:
You want the gurus. You might tell that you hate the gurus,
but you actively search for the gurus.
The people who are considered IM gurus don't even position themselves as experts.
They don't claim to be great at every technique they recommend you.
And for most of them they are not really experts.
They are successful because they mastered one or two techniques, not many.
Yet, if they recommend stuff their recommendation influences your buying decision a lot.
Nothing weird about that. But if you say you hate the gurus, you're in denial.
People who hate the "official" gurus find their own "little" gurus to follow the very same way.
How many times do you see questions like these on this forum:
"Who is good on (insert something IM here)?"
"I need a mentor on...."
"Who should I follow on ...?"
"Who should I listen to ...?"
When anybody recommends a product it's most often the name of the author, before the name of the product.
Even with exact science subjects (like "testing") you rather go with something
because "so and so" does it, not because the science tells this works better in your situation.
If you look at other industries, people ask slightly more questions about the actual product than in IM. Am I wrong?
