Escaping the Grasp of the Gurus

Have you been using the Internet as a way to generate some positive cash flow? Have you seen your bank account grow, or is it wilting ever more daily? Are you wondering how others are making money while you're still spending it?

If you are like most people who are trying desperately to make their fortune online, I'll bet that you've been reading everything you can get your hands on, about the subject. You've probably spent money on all the latest software and ebooks, and are promoting affiliate programs related to all of that material.


That's why you're broke!

All of the Internet marketing gurus, pushing their products, are sucking you dry. They are making buckets of money, selling you stuff, claiming to be giving you the secrets to online riches. Their real secret is in selling you all of their products.

I've read the ebooks, and looked at the software, and while most of the information is credible, reading it is not going to make you a bunch of money. Even implementing most of it will not make you money. Promoting it is making them money, not you.

Sure, if you promote enough affiliate programs and products, you might make a little money, but never on the grand scale you are looking to achieve.

The real way to make money online is to find a business, a real, honest to goodness business, or create your own. Then promote to the people who are in need of what you have to offer.

I spent many years in the squirrel cage, trying to make an affiliate buck. And, I made a few, but nothing to write home about. I finally realized that I was getting nowhere. So, I did something about it.

I shook off most of the information provided me by every guru online, and set out on my own. I took a skill/passion of my own and turned it into a business of my own, and guess what... I started making real money, money I could pay my bills with.

If you want to make money, stop giving it all away to the gurus, and start investing it in yourself. Stop buying every new widget and ebook to come out. Spend time in forums and online business communities, learning from successful people, for free.

If you are part of a business opportunity, stop trying to market it to other people who have business opportunities to promote, and look for people online who are still looking for one.

You do need to spend money to make money, but you need to spend it wisely, not throw it away on a bunch of affiliate programs, private label rights, and products that everyone else is trying to promote. Be original. Market yourself, that's what the gurus are doing.
