What is the reason behind fall of any newbie in IM industry?

10 replies
Hello Warriors,

I was just looking at one thread and the OP told their that why is it good to make money hardly in the IM industry.

After reading his thread I thought to share my experience with others and to know that if they also think the same :S

Well, Most of the beginners thinks that they can make money by pushing some kind of button or by some kind of tool or a kind of loophole

Well, Why don't the newbie think that if mr.X is making $XXXXXXX with his method then why is he selling this method in an e-book for $4 - $7 - $10 or even $17 if some one know this kind of thing then he must have kept it with him and must not have shared it with others

But by saying this i don't want to say that all and every thing is crap. Learning new IM tools can help you start new business. And can help you rank faster than manual. Reading ebook and methods can help in your experience and can make you even rich if you ever apply the method. But what most of us do is. They just buy the e-book and never apply the method. Or they decide their self that it can't be accomplish. Only because they don't want to work hard.

So, my tip for all newbies is this that, Please keep an eye in different forums. Read different free e-books Or join any membership site where you could get useful info for free.. But most of the people have the mindset that in free they can't get any thing. While I know that i learned most of the things for free from e-books and IM friends and other. Helping other can always help you.

Well, Please share your comments about my thoughts and experience. I am eagerly looking forward to see what other think. Also we have a membership site where we share useful methods for free if you would like to get some then check my signature.

Thank you all for reading this.

    I guess it's about too much expectation, second is they stop learning.

    Well, a humble opinion...

    The internet, as a vehicle to get your business noticed (similar to radio, newspapers, magazines, television, etc.) has all sorts of concepts to master.

    But it is exactly that, JUST ANOTHER WAY to reach your customers.

    Marketing online to sell methods for people to learn how to market online- THAT is the biggest trap that catches the 'newbie'...

    Who here thinks they can market products on TV that teach people how to market products on TV???

    Probably not many.

    So why do people come to the internet thinking they can break into a market SATURATED with advertisers and marketers who all are scrambling for a piece of that pie?
    The answer is, many or even most (if not all) of the people trying this out all think they can market to other marketers.

    If folks came to a site like this with an eye to learn how to market their product THAT WAS NOT AN IM PRODUCT, their lives (and expectations) would probably be much simpler. But alas, they come here and get told they too can get their piece of hundreds of thousands of dollars every year/month/etc.

    Every single person who puts a link in their sig, promotes a squeeze page giving away some bullsnot 'free' give away that promises to teach them to make 2,000 a month on 'autopilot' perpetuates the very thing that twists the 'newbies' expectations.

    Money in the list? It sure is.
    Never been in IM and you are on WF learning for the first time what a list is and how to build one and market to it? Wow. It leaves me speechless.

    Give me someone who wants to learn how to promote their well intentioned product OUTSIDE of IM or any other scam and I will be happy to have one on one discussions.

    Want to come here to find the secret that was promised on what seems like 99% of the offers in nearly every sig on this board? well, I just don't have time.


    Point being, marketing (i.e. selling) online isnt much different from selling out there in the 'real world'... People need value for their money- if you are not willing to give it to them, in the end (as history has taught us) you will fail.

    "newbies" are by definition not qualified...

      Couldn't agree more with this. There are simply too many of these that present false promises of quick easy income to newbies. This information overload on newbies as they hop around all these different "methods" is a major stumbling block. They often cannot settle and focus on one thing to do. Of course, there are good products out there but they are often lost in the crowd because they do not stand out. Why? Just because they are not as hyped, do not promise tens of thousands without much work, and hence do not catch the attention of newbies. Isn't that ironic?

      Focus on providing value to buyers and one will go a long way. Making money by teaching people how to make money by teaching people to make money.. is an endless cycle that exploits the fact that there are always newbies out there that will fall for it. Having said that, there is nothing wrong to be in the IM niche as long as one is providing great value. Isn't it way better if you could provide some form of service or information that will benefit even the experienced marketers? It doesn't need to be a revolutionary product. For example, many marketers would be interested if you could help them do things faster, smarter and more cost-effectively. At the end of the day, it's all about the benefits (value) vs cost for the buyer.

    I would say that it's expecting results too fast. Many people assume that online marketing is the key to getting rich quickly. When they don't see results instantly they give up immediately, when if they had instead continued down that same path they had started on, they might have seen success!

    Knowledge should put it into actions in order to work, actually no need for WSO or any ebook this day. There are a lot of free information in the internet today, all you need to do is to put that in action.

      Yes, and one of the problems is information overload. A newbie doesn't know what is "good" info and what is not.

      Best thing I ever did was get a successful mentor. I'm following her plan and her suggestions. Have I made any money yet from her plan? Nope, because she actually demands that I read and study and then put into action. It takes time, effort and knowledge to start and then succeed at a business.

    I guess its the fact that we are newbie and we are still on the learning process. Also, experts also fails just like newbies do.

      Failing is not a problem so long as you learn why you failed and carry on but do it differently next time.

    failure is part of the game.. it is more productive to study people who failed a few times then found a way to succeed ..
