it’s been a while. and a lot has changed. life moves at such a pace – it’s only 7 months ago I started MyInternetMarketingTutor.com! I have recorded a 6 minute video this morning with some insights about life, business and myself which is just right from the heart.
I am actually getting tired of some of what happens in my industry. so much hype and BS… I sometimes don’t even want to go on stage – but then I think if I don’t go on then there is no chance I can work with people and teach them and they will most likely buy someone else’s course who cares less and buggers off to somewhere far away after the event….
anyway. went to the gym this morning and learned a few lessons of life. Affirm the truth if you want to make progress. Success is subjective and then later on – being stupid is not a problem (as long as you are not being stupid all the time)…
Watch the video below, give me feedback or comments please.
I teach. I teach internet marketing. And I learned a lot in the last 3 years. But I only realise now that people don’t care how much I know. They don’t. All they care about – and rightly so – is themselves and their dream. They want to make money, in most cases, and that quickly and without the pain.
Now I know after looking at many products, my own included, that we make it too hard for people to succeed. Not on purpose, but most people looking at internet marketing don’t want to learn all about internet marketing – they just want to make money.
I realise that trying to teach them product creation, conversion strategies and membership sites (just to name a few) is for 1-2% of people only… most want the results only…what to do?
People want to learn about IM, and so they should, but along side their job to learn their is sooo much to learn and it changes all the time.
What we need is a EARN as you LEARN model, where we teach the most important tasks first (Traffic!) and then focus on marketing. Then pay people high affiliate commissions (50%) on coninuity models of education so they get paid as they learn more. If they choose to, they can then apply the traffic and marketing skills to their niche or business and learn about product creation.
This is what I want to do. I am working on it right now. Make more people more money and make some along the way as well
I am writing this as a guy who started 3 years ago to form a dream about speaking on a stage…. I asked a friend if I coud have 10 minutes to speak to his networking club people… I did that a few times. In February 2006 Dwayne made a joking remark while I was doing my 10 minute talk… he said: “when is your one-day seminar gonna be?”.
I didn’t have a one day seminar… until then I suppose. I remember preparing for months. I remember being so worried about not having enough to say, enough to share, worried about not being enough.
that is how it all began. I remember interviewing Armand Morin and some other Internet Marketing greats in September 2007 in London. I went on the stage in the evening and I told myself. In 2 years I will be on stage with them!
The ’secret’ – as they call it – is actually quite obvious. If you set an intention and work towards it – it will manifest. (I actually send an email to Rhonda telling her she should call it the ‘obvious’ but I suspect it wouldn’t have sold so many copies
so why am I telling you all this and why is this post called comfort zone stretch?
Because this September, just 2 years after interviewing some of the big guys… I will be on stage as one of the speakers with them… I am not scared, not a lot at least… they made 30 Million $$$, I made some as well….
I can only be myself and there is always more to learn…. so until very soon…
