I couldn't disagree more.

Apparent high cost? I'd say outrageously high cost.

See, as I've said before, Internet Marketing isn't like Direct Response Mailorder. Internet Marketing is like Direct Sales like Don Alm does. People who try to do Internet Marketing like they do offline mailorder will fail, but that isn't the fault of the internet as a sales method.

You just have to use it correctly.

Hope this was helpful to someone,
