How true.

I say that coming from a buyer's perspective. You have very nicely articulated the same thoughts I have had many times when I've looked at buying some information product on the internet -- and subsequently refused to buy it. The "eight (usually unrelated) special bonuses -- a $??? value" line just exudes a sense of desperation on the part of the seller.

By the way, I've read your "Tunnel Vision" report and I have to say how impressed I am. Whatever happened to the idea of focusing on a good product or service, a good reputation, building what you know, and steadily growing? I get the sense from a lot of these "internet marketing" sites that the term "growth" connotes a speed that is "too slow" -- it seems everyone wants to "explode their sales." If you're not ready for it, couldn't super fast growth be more of a curse than a blessing?

Just some random thoughts.
