Okay, so who else has seen the trendy firesale offer drop into their inbox recently?

Let’s recap the offer.

“Hi there, I’m Guru X and I’m semi-retiring from the business I bigged-up in a thousand emails to you in the past so I can use all the cash you sent me to move onto greater things! BUT – I’ll still be releasing the odd mega-product now and again so stayed tuned! And boy oh boy, do I have a Pile of Crap to offer you today! All in one big steaming bundle!”

Well maybe they aren’t quite that transparent, maybe they use their well honed sales patter to convince you the clapped out attic junk they are offering is really worth the space on your drive. I’ll hand it to them, these guys are very good at what they do.

I could name names but you all know who they are already because how could you avoid their, “Tell all, let’s get honest, here’s my life story”, bullshit? How stupid do they think we are?

I’ll tell you how stupid, it’s in the metrics.

What they do is add up all the money they’ve taken from us in the past for sub-standard products that have got us exactly NOWHERE, they divide that by 2 (just to be safe), and they reach the inevitable conclusion that, hell yes, these suckers are as dumb as it comes!

So on that basis you get one last chance to consume their brik-a-brak, flotsam and jetsam back catalogue for the ridiculously low price of $497, $997, more if they have enough nerve.

Scratch the record, rewind, some of you are going to jump in here and ask how much money I’ve earned in comparison to these Goo-Roos. I’ve earned **** all, how was it for you? Maybe that’s because I spent a hell of a lot of time following “experts” and maybe that’s all my fault.

Tell you what I do have though. At least an ounce of integrity. If integrity is an impediment to my future success then I’m going to live with it anyway, know what I mean?

Think about it. What do most of these gurus teach you? They tell you, find a program and TAKE ACTION! They bleat on about “information overload” and how you NEED to get your head out of that.

Oh yeah, focus, focus, focus – and while you’re at it buy every product I ever released for the bargain bucket price of… you get the picture? How many synonyms exist for the word hypocrite? Let’s use ‘em all!

Sharks and minnows, ladies and gents. Right now I’m a minnow, a light snack for these predators. But I’m learning fast. I’m doing what they fear the most. I’m relating my real world experiences to this online marketing gig and finding patterns.

Lo and behold, I see snakes and daemons and saints, just like in any other walk of life. Turns out Internet marketing is not some isolated branch of human nature and behaviour after all. It’s just like anything else, and as such – let common sense be your weapon of choice.

Here are some names for you – no affiliate links attached, go do your own searching.

Brian Johnson, Chris Rempel, Stuart Turnbull, Tony Shepherd, Jim Cockrum.

Google them, get a feel, herein you will discover ALL you need to know to make money online. And after that, it all comes down to you.

So why haven’t I made money yet? Easy in reality, hard to admit, I’m a screw up. I didn’t follow the good advice I was given. Indeed I went in exactly the opposite direction. Because I’ve still got my head wrapped around that “One big score” and can’t get a grip on little by little. Please don’t make the same mistake.

I’m a mug who is now thousands of bites light as a result of interaction with the “gurus”.

The guys I mentioned above don’t NEED to firesale you because each and every product they ever released carries the same value now as it had way back when. That means they had the right intentions when they initially produced the product. That means they had and have integrity. And that’s the golden ingredient.

You will need to spend SOME money to get to grips with this marketplace. But it is OH SO important who you spend it with. Take my advice, or don’t take my advice, it’s a free world, but it ain’t a free ride.
