Internet Marketing: A Chick Magnet? Who Knew?

43 replies

  • |
Whoever thought being an Internet Marketer could make someone a chick magnet. A few short years ago when I'd tell a woman what I did they would get a confused or glazed look in their eyes.

Now I notice they get an excited look followed by a series of questions. Even as I tell them about keyword research, SEO or PPC Marketing, who knew! Anyone else have similar experiences?

Anyway, no longer is Intenet Marketing thought of as "Nerdy"? Now it's Manly (A lady friends response, not mine).

So go forth and prosper.

    I don't think it's Internet Marketing that attracts women: It's who you become in the process.

      Nerdy is sexy... just sayin...

      Maybe now more women know what it means. But Jonathan 2.0 is right, knowledgeable, confident, self-assured, go-getter, these are all things that are attractive to the feminine persuasion.

        Their eyes are glazing over because they are thinking about all the things they could buy with your money. An entire closet full of shoes. Money money money.

        Well, how can we take advantage of this new discovery?

        1.) Write book about picking up women and call it PickUp Guide 2.0: Internet Marketing


        2.) :confused:


        3.) PROFIT!!

    I have to agree with Jonathan 2.0 here, it's the process of you becoming a successful internet marketer that makes you more attractive.
    It makes you feel more confident and knowledgeable.

    And as far as it goes for girls thinking everything with computers is geeky, that says more about them then it says about you. I mean, Bill Gates was a geek, look where it got him .

    If I talk about internet marketing to women prodding me for info when they're trying to sell a credit card or something, I get that glazed look you describe. The only time pretty young women show an interest in me is, well, never, basically, lol. I might have been a chick magnet of sorts when I was younger and better looking, but my weirdness usually threw them off.

      There are a lot broke people I meet who have know-how that could make them nice money online. They are blind to the wealth and opportunities in front of their faces, but look yonder into the illusionary dream-lands of the unattainable.

        very plausible. Although I tend to agree with the fact that it is the confidence, plus most of us that are internet marketers are also entrepreneurs, and women are attracted to men that aren't afraid of risk.

            What an interesting theory! <gg>

            I guess there is a lot of different aspects of the Internet Marketing lifestyle that might make you more attractive to the opposite (or even the same) sex.

            You are more self-confident, you don't rely on a boss, you are more independent...

            I guess we all agree that a journey to success in Internet Marketing is also a journey to self-development.

            So I guess rich people with a great, self-confident personality are always somewhat more attractive.

      LOL.

      YEAH, man.

      The photos. Like Tommy Vu, man. Just boat loads of chicks, look at Tommy, a real role model.

      I don't think he has less than 4 chicks surrounding him, happy and smiling to just "hang" with the Vu master.

    Most of the girls will say: "Oh yea yea! I know! You send us those viagra emails.. and you put up those banners on all sites!".

    Clearly.. they do know online marketing.
