Re: What it's not...
Yeah, Dien, people looking for a magic gateway to vast riches without putting anything but casual work into the process to get it, is what fuels the Internet Marketing industry. Unfortunately, too many marketers takes disadvantage of this brain blip and comes out with one shiny half baked, unproven, untested, outright bogus make money system after the other for the lazy hopefuls to spring another $17 -$27-$37-$47 or more dollars on.
It appears most people looking to venture into a business online approaches it with the mind set of a hobbyist, not a serious entrepreneur in the making. I was guilty of this attitude for longer than I care to admit. Hence why they are constantly on the hunt for the elusive fairy dust business model that once set up, will pump out money in bushels daily with them barely having to pay attention to anything but their growing bank statement and World Of Warcraft ranking. WSOs catering to these bound for frustration mindsets are all over the Warriors Forum with more coming daily. One WSO marketer sends me an alert to buy a "must have" this or that software or my success is in question. He does this two to four times weekly. He claims to have an offline business servicing clients, but a huge chunk of hid income as far as I am concerned from is pushing products on his list weekly just for the purpose of making money, not what is best for his list. If you have a solid evergreen model working for you, you hardly need to buy another marketing tool twice or more weekly. He gets this but doesn't give a crap if he can palm off some more stuff and make money. He is one of tons of other marketers with the same attitude. Recently, after writing this post I decided to enter into a venture that is a simple age old model souped up for the 21st century. It is possible and part of my plan to build the model to what may be what Harvey refers to as a third gear position. Someone who has a solid business using this model for whatever reason(s) has placed himself in a second gear position and still makes an enviable income working two hours daily and then playing golf most week days. When profits allows, I plan to hire a competent project manager to handle the implementation day to day activities, moving myself to the third gear position, allowing me to concentrate on getting more business. Harvey has likely built his model whereby he can have almost no involvement, in a say 4th or 5th gear position. No idea how to get to these gears yet, but I will be happy with being in third gear, involved about six to twelve hours weekly. Quote:
