Over the last 5 years or so, Internet Marketing has seen a swarm of people enter the industry with the sole purpose of “rehashing” anything and everything that is already available to anyone and everyone, and selling it back to them, resulting in a badly cooked soup of consistently degrading experience and low-quality education + adversely high levels of skepticism at the hands of previously conned consumers, being served to almost all newcomers to the industry.
What was once an industry where the sheer thought of tapping into the interests of hundreds of millions of web surfing people and providing them products they actually “need” and “search the web for” was nothing short of a “turn-on” for the new ambitious marketer, has now turned into one where more and more marketers are entering the Internet Marketing world to do exactly the opposite:
Sell to Internet Marketers, not to the people out there who actually need to buy something or the other online..

I rather have to agree with you. When I tried (and got burned) to do network/internet marketing, I heard someone once say that it was smarter and easier to sell systems to internet marketers than it was to actually try to sell real products to real people. It’s like the saying in the writing world that it’s easier to sell a “how to write” book than it is to sell a book.
Kinda tells you something.

This is so true. Nowadays, when people hear of someone earning big from something, they swarm to it and try to have a bit of whatever profit can be made. But when they don’t make it, they turn leave and they also leave behind some damage that is hard to undo.
