You Cannot Make Money on the Internet By Sitting On Your Butt Doing Nothing (437 hits)
If you meet up with anyone who says you can, I strongly suggest you avoid that person like you would a flu virus in a truck stop restroom. They are setting you up.
Sure - Some People Do Make LOTS of Money on the Internet.
Some people really do make $100,000 or more in just a few days!
And many of those people will want to sell you their "magic formula" - implying that you can run right out and immediately "duplicate" their mega-dollar success.
But there is always another part of the story they won't tell you.
Before They Could Earn Their $100,000 in 7 Days ....
they had a massive advertising budget to start with - and a precisely targeted marketing campaign already laid out and ready to roll.
or they had already invested months or years of time and energy in learning Internet marketing skills and developing the kind of high-powered contacts required to pull off big joint venture deals.
Or all of the above.
Yes - there are a rare few beginners that just get lucky! But a few people win their states Lottery too. What are YOUR odds?
So, even for an Internet marketing expert, the Internet itself is not a magic money machine!
I'm talking about building a business - not gambling and hoping for a big win.
And there is work involved. The Internet is just another marketplace - much like the Mall or Main Street in your hometown. The only things different are the technology .... the methods of marketing, sale, and delivery.
Okay - I'm sorry if that pops your bubble. But I've gotta look at myself in the mirror every morning. I'm not in the business of telling lies just for the sake of making a few bucks.
However - I Do Have Some GOOD News ....
But only if you're serious - only if you're willing to make a committment and take some action.
Compared to starting a business on a street in your home town, starting a business on the Internet is much quicker, and much more affordable for the average person.
In spite of what you may hear elsewhere ....

So ARE YOU SERIOUS About Making Money On The Internet?
