Ebooks Wont Give you the SECRET - Keep your wallet in your pocket

[quantumtiger]

Hi Linda

Thanks for your words of wisdom.

What I am learning from my short time in forums is that I can write in a way that creates a response.

Something I feel good about, coming from a background of making a living with my hands.

As my confidence in this area grows so does my realization that I have to get a handle of the techie side of things so that I can put the two together and apply them in the way that you mentioned.

5 Star has done so much for me in a very short time.

Thank-you all so much.

Pertaining to this post Linda, were would be the best place for a novice to start? This might provide with some good content for my subscriber base.

Thanks.

Any book that claims they have the SECRET and wants to charge you for it should definately be ignored. They are like Linda says just "pushing buttons" on the newbie affiliate marketer to spur sales.

Want to know the SECRET for free?

The SECRET is to actually get involved and stay consistant at marketing one product or service. Don't be one of those people that jump from product to product looking for that big score immediately.

Its been said, and I believe it to be true, that 99% of all affiliate marketers fail because:
A) they never act on anything they are read or taught. They either procrastinate and put off doing anything till later, and soon forget altogether so they never act. Or...
B) and this is the biggest mistake of all, they jump on a new "fad" market and hope to get rich immediately when they don't they jump ship to another "fad". Soon getting discouraged and quit altogether.

Most all of these ebooks you can buy are just rehashed info from someone elses ebook that you can probably get for free somewhere. Want a good place to look for free ebooks? Try SureFireWealth you can get a totally free silver membership there that will give you access to 100s and 100s of free ebooks that many people today are rehashing and selling for $27 - $97

Are there ebooks worth buying? Yes there are. But most of them are of the "instructional" and "how to" variety. And with the advent of Jonathan Leger's $7 secrets script many of them are dirt cheap now.

Affiliate marketing is tough and not an immediately lucrative career. I've been doing it for years and still only average $100 - $300 monthly. And yes I spent a ton of money on ebooks at first. I rarely ever buy one now and I always check $7 Offers - http://www.7dollaroffers.com first before I buy any ebook.

Hi everyone. You guys have some great points here. An Ebook will not solve all your problems or give you a magical key to wealth, but I have learned a lot from them. I like to buy them every once in a while just to see if I can learn anything new, and usually I do. Somtimes someone will have a tip that is new and fresh compared to what I was doing at the time, I'll utilize it, and have it work for my benefit. Now I am not saying to buy every new ebook that comes around, but maybe one every once in a while may help refresh your business.

I agree with all the comments made by the fellow members. The ebooks are just guides not an alternative for get rich schemes.

Hi Dorian,
Hey instead of having Linda repeat herself on a question like that ... go read the Newbie Forum's stickiess. All that type of info is there for you already. Do us a favor though, if you use it ... please rewrite the content into your own words.

You are right, before I joined this forum I started to realize that I was trying to compete with the big dogs. I have only maketing program I promote because it is the one that helped me get started. I am new to this forum but there is loads of info here. Great Job!

Hi everyone,

Interesting posts to all of you. Some gurus try to sell their secrets and make money from it. Like many of you, I've bought miraculous books that would bring me my million dollars effortless, that was crap, even books that were sold $700 USD (I'm not joking) and I've bought it! I was as green as grass and blinded in the dark.

Most successfull internet marketer failed before they succeed because they tried and made mistakes. From all my readings in blogs, articles and posts in forums, it seems to be a common fact, we all probably need to get a little burned before we appreciate the heat.

True successfull internet marketers share their called "secrets" or their tips for free (blogs, articles, etc.) or even in your afiliate program. Internet marketers is not rocket science, it's simply hard work and consistence in your actions towards meaning full goals. We just need to know what we're doing and understand what we're doing.

Forums like this one have much more free resources you can learn from than spending a small fortune (like I did) on expensive material. I have received an e-mail lately that was mentionning something like: "crack code" Google Adwords, I will share my secrets and you will get unlimited FREE PPC forever and it was a book sold for about 50$. We have to be aware of these offers...

This is awesome, I liked the article.

[Deedboy]

yes most of all are hypes but...

most of all you can find them for free
some are really good and they're not so expensive.

you have only to search the right ebooks
