Yea, I said it. From the guy who absolutely hates doing the little things himself and hires it out 90% of the time, I want to tell you why outsourcing too soon in your Internet Marketing Career can be a costly mistake.

First off their are so many variables to consider. It’s not as easy as it was a year ago. The Internet has sustained large growth and more importantly the amount of people coming online wanting to work from home and reading all that bullshit about how they can get rich overnight has seriously corrupted their minds. Please if we can get rich overnight then there would not be haters, bashers and skeptics. While after some education and fine tuning your business you can turn nights into what some would consider riches, it’s impossible to just come online and make the dollars fall down your computer screen like some shitty christmas like myspace layout. It just doesn’t happen, so face the reality.

So without the blabbling, point #1 is try to use your head a little.

Another point is the amount of people that will just completely screw you over. Oh yea, it’s damn near a phenomenon on the amount of people that will screw you over at places such as Elance and Scriptlance. What’s even worse is this shit is starting to spill over into forums now. Take the Warrior Forum for instance, not a month passes by that a rant thread pops up about someone screwing someone else over. You have to get personal with your writers, programmers, whatever.

Jesus,

Yea first things first. I know I haven’t posted in like a month, but ya know we all need some time to ourselves. Well, after much debate I am still going to post here. Much like my attention span, it could be erratic from time to time, but I love you all and I am always up for shooting the shit with ya so I’m hanging:)

OK now, let’s bitch about forum mongrels. Here’s the kicker. Last month and the month before we were just dealing with out right, in your face scammers who had no regard for the forum member’s or themselves. Now over the course of the last few days, I sit back in this enormously lonely office and watch a new breed of forum dipshits emerge. Yea, I respect people so don’t give the moral pep talk. If you know anything about me, you know I like to jerk around. (Pun Intended). Anyway, I sit back and watch as LONG TIME forum member’s do something completely unexplainable. They SCREW UP!

I don’t know why I am even blogging this but you can see over at the Warrior Forum that this chick is being crucified to the high heavens. Of course she was saying she was a lawyer and using this to persuade people and even offer them legal advice. Now, I don’t claim to be a genius at how people type but the evidence is irrefutable that if you take a trip over to the RJ Forum or BlackhatWorld, I snuffed out some dipshits in my time.

You know I really do not have anything too negative against Digital Point. I am a happy member over there, and as well as WickedFire, Warrior Forum, RJ Forum and Self Starters Weekly Tips. I can see a boatload of animosity and maybe even jealousy between the forums and it’s members. Well back up for a second, we can exclude RJ and Self Starters from that list, as either of these forums could give two squirts. As for the other three, it’s alarming how many times I come across a virtual bash or a verbal poke at one or the other.

Now for some people forum bashing and all of that nonsense might be for you. I can say I rather stay out of it, as you can see earlier this past week, I tend to have more personable problems arise than to sit around and bash other forums. The deal is that I like all 3 forums. Of course they all have their perks and there are different things that can upset the “herds” rather quickly. One of them, is that you really do not talk about other forums when your there.

Ok, I can handle WickedFire’s cockiness beacuse they have a ton of cool people that go out of their way to help you and Warrior Forum’s “pact of wolves” that will jump at your throat if you say something even remotely close not to their liking. One thing I cannot really stand is that Digital Point‘s Freebie section used to be “FIRE”. I have found countless gems lying about in their freebie section over the past year. But now it’s like a viagra stand for a pack of horny old timers getting paroled from the nursing home. Here’s some of the shit I witnessed today:

• Stumb Unlimited: Unlimilited

When it comes to making your information viral, you need to absolutely know what is going on. I cannot stress how important it is to monitor your information your going to present. If your passing on information with the monetization purpose of gaining on the back-end (links within your information), then here are a few things, you need to keep in mind.

First off, I am guilty of this myself. It was not until the other day that I was reading the “Social Media Daily” by a WELL-KNOWN Internet Marketer that I realized…or actually remembered, that I had just created one of the greatest mistakes you can do with viral information. Once your information hits the net and you start sharing it, there is no turning back. Once your information takes off, if you have not “perfected” the links inside the book, or anything else you wanted in place, it is just too late.

Here’s the mistake:

While reading the Social Media Daily which is a free report meant to go viral, I saw the two biggest mistakes you could make in a viral report. First off, I saw that that all the software’s recommended in the report were all links from the same domain. I cannot stress the importance of you not doing that. Right off the bat, your readers are going to see when they hover over your link in the PDF report, that all the things you recommend are pointing to folders or sub-domains from the same site. While you might think your in the clear because you have your affiliate link redirecting, I can assure you that your not. If you have all the affiliate links situated on one domain, your screwed, plain and simple. You need a domain for each, or else people get the idea your links are for profit, and that is a money killer for you.

I have been on both sides of these tactics so I know right now, that I favor Information Selling as my primary tactic online. My JV Partner and friend Joseph Tierney is also on both sides of these tactics as well. I can honestly say after seeing all the support he provides for the programs he creates, he has one hell of a heart that he pours into customer support. Do not get me wrong, I am the same way when I sell information online. I prefer to write and distribute my tactics, but my doors are always open to help people succeed with the information I provide, granted I have the time.

I do not really consider Software Production a long term income goal that I would be comfortable with. It is in my experience that providing information requires a heck of a lot more technical skills, and a lot less support. I would prefer to have my businesses run more on autopilot so that I could expand and leverage other niches. Although providing Coaching and Support is a must, it is a lot easier to do when the information has been supplied to the best of your knowledge.

Another thing that I have found that cuts down on the amount of “post” support or help after supplying information is I have made it very clear since I started Marketing Online, that I only report with tactics I have used and succeeded with. Furthermore, in all of my disclaimers, I clearly state that not doing exactly what I say and how I say, can warrant results which I would be unfamiliar with. I find it quite hilarious of all the crap floating about on the Net that has been rehashed. This is just bad information selling at its best. The more you speculate in your findings, the more support you are going to have to provide.

WARNING: This Post WILL Offend The People I Am Directing This Towards

Begin Rant: I was really trying to hold this off as long as I could. Unfortunately, at the expense of yet another forum blowup and yet another reputation shot to hell, I feel I must stick a really sharp needle in this balloon, and burst this bubble that has been nagging me for ages.

There is a new age of Internet Marketers among us. Whether we accept or not is irrelevant, they are here and they are penetrating more and more forums everyday. It seems that this generation of Internet Marketer likes to take on the persona that they are someone else. Whether it be a person who is successful, a copy of a persona already portrayed online, or just a blatant liar who thinks that what they are doing is “cool”. I have personally known, and still know people that portray this image. Do I agree with it? No. Do I hound them like it was my business? No. I probably should, yet I wait and let them destruct themselves.

Most of the people who I approached in the past that portrayed a “false” persona, usually turned into an argument. Sometimes it spilled right out into the public view. I have since held my tongue since the last person I went after, as it almost cost me a forum membership. I knew for a fact he was a fraud, I didn’t want to prove it. What I really wanted to do is push him over the edge, until he admitted it himself. In most cases, I must have a gift or something, because I can usually push people to the edge, and when they actually realize how deep the whole is going to be, they give up, admit they were wrong and usually disappear.

Warning This Post Is Meant To Offend
What in the world is going on lately. This is so ironic that I was browsing about and remember reading some of Alice Seba’s Internet Marketing Sweetie Blog awhile back. Well, I (googled) and save it back into my favorites because I fell immediately upon a post titled “Forum Liars“. I thought to myself “this is going to be great”! Alice has always spoken her mind no matter where she goes. This is the #1 feature I look for in a Marketer and more importantly (a person). I have seen her under fire before in the Warrior Forum in various topics (or say debates). Nonetheless, this chick rocks hardcore and I love reading her blog.

Anyway I linked to the post. The man she writes about, I can pinpoint him in a heartbeat from the Warrior Forum. Absolutely ridiculous with his post. Although she speaks her mind, I can only imagine what she was really saying. He did in fact give out on a ghostwriting project awhile back then comes back with a 3 million dollar claim.  This seems odd to me as well. I will not go into anymore detail, read her post for more clarification.

I am here to give a perspective on recent Forum Liars I have encountered

This is a doozy, I must say. All 3 recent events, postings and arguments have been the result of those 3 people being under the age of 18. Now, I do not mind young people in this business, I actually know a 14 year old man that makes more than 90% Internet Marketers. The thing that separates this guy from the rest of the (what I deemed) worthless herd, is that he is 100% honest to everyone and more importantly…he is loyal. 2 qualities that will take you a long, long way in this business.

I just wanted to pop in and get this off my chest right quick. Over the last year and more importantly, (over the last couple of month’s), I am getting the ever frightful and extremely irritating question “How Can I Make Money Fast”? Well, first things first. Yes, you can make fast, but I am always under the presumption that when someone asks me this, I feel they are not going to totally commit to what it takes to make money.

Let’s just aside put that dumbass question and ask a real one shall we. “How are you going to make money”? That is the question you should QUIETLY (notice I said quietly) ask yourself. If your completely retarded in regards to the Internet, then I just cannot take the time to answer the question. Matter of fact, I cannot even answer the question at all, for anyone. The answers lie in your desires, motives, persistance and work ethics. There are many more factors involved, but if you got answers to those 4 then your off to a damn good start.

There is one thing that rings true in this chaotic Online Marketing World. Work Ethic is going to get you further and faster than the next guy (or girl). Instead of asking how your going to do it, your time is better spent on attempting what you have already read.
