If you have been on the World Wide Web for some time like I have, you will have come across an amazing number of how to get rich quick schemes, gimmicky ideas, ways to make a quick million and so on and so forth, from those who purport to be “masterminds,” Internet marketers, gurus and others who, unfortunately, are morons…
Consequently, a large number of people have written to me to ask questions and to pass on their individual experiences. Some of these people have paid good money for e-books, coaching courses, DVDs and advice telling them “how to get rich,” but have followed all the steps and wonder why they are no further along now than they were before. Why is it that “The Tin” tells them to do X, Y and Z – and they do it — BUT, they don’t make a cent?
To be truthful, and in the interest of being realistic, we have to accept that the problem probably lies in the fact that there really aren’t any overnight millionaire solutions, or even those that take a week or a month to achieve a miracle. This is of course unless you have a way of linking up with some good and reputable affiliates, who have a significant number of subscribers on their lists.
If a person is willing to work hard at creating an excellent reliable brand, fantastic sought after products and services, and impeccable customer support, then the money will come. I absolutely guarantee it.
You of course need a solid marketing strategy in place to make sure people know about your reliable brand, fantastic sought after products and services, and impeccable customer support – and once you have married these items together, you have started the basis for an ongoing, profitable business. I go into much more detail about this in my book, “Realistic Down To Earth Online Marketing,” which will be of great help to you if you’re actually ready for the “Real Deal.”
When you do it the right way, the word will start to spread and invariably, sales and new clients result. What you then have to do is keep on top of everything, especially the marketing and customer service, which is way too difficult to be done alone, believe me, if you are thinking BIG, you are going to need some serious help. An outsourcing process is your friend here, as you can hire a professional online business manager or a company that specialises in virtual assistance, with the aim of ensuring that your service quality is first class; don’t miss this all-important step, or you could easily trip up.
I am sure that there are a certain number of people out there who undeniably know what they are talking about, for example Tim Ferris and Yaro Starek, respected people both, but you need to ask yourself an important question before you even think about buying that “get rich” course:
1. Is the person selling it legitimate?
2. Is the person selling it rich themselves?
3. And finally… Did the person selling the product get rich from selling the product, or by some other means… You really need to focus on this point.
You see that on more than one occasion, the people who are selling “the dream of becoming rich,” actually became rich just by selling that system, rather than generating their money by selling another product or service. Think about it, when people are running a business online, what do they want more than anything else? Yes, they want to make money and therefore they come across somebody selling a product, promising that it will make people rich, and the market for buying that product is very large in itself. They are selling “the dream of becoming rich,” to the people who have that dream.
So, if you’re actually selling something like a musical instrument, a fitness machine or a clock, what happens now as you are “not” selling the actual chance to “get rich?” A thousand times the number of people can be sold the concept of becoming rich than can be sold a Violin.
So the moral of all this is that before you spend your valuable money on any course which essentially tries to tell you the system for “how to get rich,” if your goal is to sell a particular service or product, make sure that the person you entrust for advice has actually become rich selling this very same service or product. It is so important to make sure that the advice is applicable in your case and that it is based on a solid foundation.
