Often times all we need is a little word of encouragement to keep us going. I never understand why a person jumps into something and without even trying they jump right out. I don’t understand why on earth people are very quick to ask for a refund without even spending any real effort in learning what to do.
This unfortunately is the world we live in. The fact is most people don’t put in any effort at all. Partly because crappy loser marketers use hyped up words like AUTOPILOT RICHES!!!!! INSTANT BACKLINKS!!!!!!FREE MONEY MAKING WEBSITE!!!! And tons of other SHIZZIT! People fall prey because of the allure of making riches online.
Word Of Encouragement- Follow The Path
It is so easy to do stand head and shoulders above everyone else simply by having a voice. Did you know that the people who fail online don’t have a voice. All of their crying accusing people of spamming blah blah.. You really don’t know who they are do you? Unless of course you are one of them. (Not that I am saying you are 🙂 )
I say what I say with almost pure certainty because I have personally spent well over $100,000 dollars in 10 years. I have spent 10’s of thousands of dollars trying stuff. Why you may be thinking would I spend so much money online..
It is because I have a passion to learn, I need to see it for myself. The only time I ask for a refund is when I buy something for 77 dollars and the sales copy says new, secret, never before seen etc… Then I buy it, and see that its total and absolute bull shit.
For example how many (CPA) cost per action products are sold on clickbank. The reality is a good percentage of these so called cpa affiliate programs are only reserved for elite marketer folks that are already established online marketer.
Seriously you have to go through an interview process and everything. Sure there are cpa offers out there that anyone can promote , but they are the crappy ones that nobody really wants…
Yet, I have bought off the top of my head at least 7 products in 3 years that say the same shit. No website needed, no list needed, just listen to our pixie dust bull crap and make millions, look I was a homeless guy right, and some zillionair felt bad for me so i cornered him and he told me the secret voodoo trick that floods my account with money. I am so stupid that if i can do this and a monkey can do this you can do this.. Only for a limited time $77
Ya I bought that stuff, I need to see for myself if in anyway its different or new or because I am just bored and I like to buy stuff to buy stuff.
Word Of Encouragement – YO Larry Whats Your Point?
My point is this, you are not stupid. My point is all that you have to do is just a little bit more than the 95% of the people failing online.. And that is simple to have your own voice. The more people hear you and see you the more you will be the authority.
If someone is telling you they are this or that. Or they can help you with this or that. Go google them. Go see who they really are. If you can’t find out, you are dealing with one of the 95%. All winners share one thing. They separated themselves from the crowd…
P.S I finally figured out what to actually do with my Empower Blog that is I am gonna focus it on my 7 minuteworkout business. As always I am ready to join forces with you. If you are sick and freggin tired of not getting what you want from your online efforts. You need to get with me in empower network and lets do this together 🙂
Hi larry,
I completely agree with this post. It’s amazing how much drivel we have to sort through when we see these product pitches about geetting rich online. It can be discouraging if people believe the sales copy and have high expectations, only to realize that it takes actual hard work to start an online business.
Hi Richard, I agree with you. It is easy get discouraged. That is why it is important to represent only the highest quality products and services.. If not it can come back to bite you in you know where..
Thanks for sharing!
You are right, some times all we need is really a word of encouraging…but the easier it looks, the harder it takes to have it:(
Hi Anna, thanks for stopping by it’s good seeing you 🙂
I publish a few small business blogs as well as a marketing blog and I’m with you in “investing” thousands of dollars on courses, software, design tools, etc. I don’t regret a single expense.
I’ve found that selling e-products in non-IM industry results in a much lower refund rate. I sell a legal product and have had only 2 refunds that were completely legitimate (I’ve sold many units so the rate is low).
At the end of the day, keep on plugging away. I worked on one site for 14 months before it generated revenue. I can tell you I wanted to throw in the towel many times, but I had faith.
Same thing with small business sites I publish – at first traffic is nothing and then a few months later, BAM, loads of traffic.
Hi Jack, thanks for commenting and sharing your experiences. You said it brother…
“At the end of the day, keep on plugging away…
It’s easy sometimes in our stretch towards success to remember to acknowledge the things we and those around us are doing well. It seems our media focuses a lot lately on what’s not going well, and I think we fall into that same pattern.
Hi Jon thanks for visiting my blog.
I think you may be right.. I think a lot of it has to do with pack mentality..
Thanks for sharing:)
Hey bro as always good stuff. I just did a similar post today. In the hard work and perseverence wins out. Not bullshit gimmicks.
thanks man!
After a certain point, we learn to identify which offers/ products are genuine and which one are plain marketing offers. But of course, it takes some time in order to obtain the knowledge to separate the weed from the chaff.
Hi Raj, thanks for commenting..
That true I am totally agree with point of 95% folks that are failing online…
Anyway thanks a lot for this.
I think its 50% they not wanting to accept the truth and 50% they are listening to the wrong people.
Sometimes the problem is you don’t get any feedback – good or bad. In that case I guess all you have to do is promote yourself more and an the end of your articles ask your readers their opinions. Negative feedback is not necessarily a bad thing – you learn where to improve yourself.
I like all types of feedback, your right it helps you to do things better. Thanks for commenting Roger.
Your very right! Let every word that comes out from our mouth only builds people or provide what is needed. Let not not our words be so sharp that will eventually hurt someone. My former sentence is define as “Encouragement” while, the latter is discouragement.
Sometimes a person needs a good swift kick in the lower buttocks region 🙂
This has been my experience as well Larry, I’ve spent a small fortune on trying different products. I’d consider myself reasonably successful now, but as far as words of encouragement go I only seem to find it amongst like minded individuals online. In the off-line world my family and friends just don’t get it.
Hi Beth, often our offline friends and family don’t understand because to them we are just sitting in front of a computer. It’s when they put us down for what we are doing is when we have to draw the line.. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
I can’t even express all my emotions about this persuasive video. By all these words that were showed in it can definitely make all people believe in themselves and try to succeed. Probably these were the best words of encouragement
I am glad you enjoyed it. Sometimes all it takes is that little extra sumthing sumthing to get you going 🙂
Hi larry …This is a very inspirational post !! Loved it !! Keep writing !!
Very true Larry,
Most people online get caught in the same “make money quick and effortlessly” bullsh*t. They don’t know that it takes as much time and effort as any other offline business. Except the fact that it costs much less.
When I first started, I fall into it as well. But as soon as I bought my first crappy product and read it, I instantly asked for a refund as the thing inside it I could “Google” for free! After that moment, I decided to go my own way.
The point is, to success online, we need a plan of actions and go with it. If we hang on, sooner or later, we will get there. And you’re right, sometimes, a little word of encouragement is all we need.
Thanks for sharing Larry, have a nice day 😀
Duy.
I finally found the encouragement. I like the idea of just working a bit harder than the 95% who fail. I know why so many people give up and it’s because things aren’t instant when it comes to blogging. I’ve felt like giving up numerous times, might still do it. But I will push ahead for now before life itself becomes too overwhelming. Thanks for the encouragement.
Inspiring! It moves me not to give up, thanks Larry for this wonderful post.
