Is Your Home Business An Escape?

A strange question for sure. Is it a valid statement though? Some people start a home business as a way to make extra money. Doing it online is the ‘preferred’ method for most (including me). So why do you want a business online? Are you really doing business online? For example; you tell the family(…)

Is Good Spelling And Grammer Important?

In a similar vein to my last post “My Name Is Not [fname] or [first name]!” I see a lot of ads and sales pages. I attempt to learn something from them, to analyze them, and dissect them. In my “ad studies”, the one thing I find more prevalent in the IM niche is gross(…)

Chainletters?!?

What a blast from the past! I was cruising the ‘net and stumbled upon an ad for a program that started out with something like, “Remember how profitable chainletters were? Now you can make money with them on the Internet!” I about fell out of my chair when I saw that statement. I do remember(…)

My Name Is Not [fname] or [first name]!

It continually amazes me why these people even bother. One of the number one things you need to do when building your list is to instill some confidence when people join. I hate when I get an email with either [fname] or [first name] since I know the person who sent it is either one(…)

The Choices We Make Determine Our Courses

Choices. There are choices every day. You have paths to choose to take. Some are easy choices and some are not so easy. Do I join this program? Do I buy this course? Do I go for quality or quantity? Do I do the right thing or the one that makes me the most money?(…)

eBay…Really?

It seems when people are looking to make money at home these days they tend to overlook the simplest methods. I realized the other day I have been overlooking eBay. I have made a lot of money from eBay in the past. It was the best option a few years ago and you really don’t(…)

How Dependent Are You?

As I observe many different things happening on the Internet marketing front, some interesting facts came to my attention. I was reading a newsletter from one of my favorite marketers, Marlon Sanders (THE grandaddy of IM), and he brought this point home and I really hadn’t given it much thought before. To preface this, I(…)

The Best Way To Make Money

I am often asked what the best way to make money is on the Internet and from home. The honest answer is – I have no idea. That may sound strange from a marketer so let me explain this a bit further. For me to tell you the EXACT way to make money that is(…)

What Is Up With This?

Another trend I am not too crazy about has sprouted up – a membership site as a product. Not that I have anything against membership sites IF they are mentioned in the sales page. The couple I have been “burned” by said nothing about a membership site and spoke of a “download” all through the(…)

Look At What They Do – Not What They Say

There is some old wisdom that says to watch what someone does and see if it is what they say to do. In other words, do they “walk the walk” or not. In this age of constant Google updates, FTC restrictions, and other methods to help protect us from not so reputable marketers; there will(…)
