Why Internet Marketing Doesn't Work

Although the title to this article might seem a little controversial (since I am an internet marketer) I want to explain why internet marketing does not work for everyone. There is a few points I want to make clear. And some things I want to clarify. I will be as blunt as possible without offending anyone. I have much respect for people that can speak their minds regardless of what the general public might think. So without any further disclaimers let's begin.  First and foremost, the great majority of the public are employed by someone else. Therefore when some of these people think about venturing into a home business they bring with them the same employee mindset. They expect from the company. They crave security in a stable income (regardless of how inconsiderable it might be). And put in minimal effort. Internet marketing was designed by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs. It was created for the soul who is ready, willing, and able to make a change. And we are talking REAL change. It is NOT about an MLM. It is NOT about a business opportunity. It is NOT about get rich over night scams. This industry does not work for most people because they are not ready. Mentally, they have not conditioned themselves for success (since success first starts in the mind). It does not work for people who do not work. Nothing works unless YOU work.

Secondly, we are a society who is conditioned to expect everything NOW. We want everything fast. Magic pills for quick weight loss. Magic microwave for super fast dinner. Drive through for fast food. And some magic formula to get rich quick. This is another reason why internet marketing will not work for most people. In order to succeed one must be in a community of entrepreneurs who come together to learn and teach internet marketing. A company of know how and "how to" to internet marketing. One that provides a blue print for success. A community of mentors who want to teach. And most people are not ready to be in an environment like this. One must be within community of people who are ready for success and will do all that it takes to achieve it. And will work until they achieve it regardless of how long it takes and how many falls they face.  Thirdly, most people think about the process its going to take to achieve success. While entrepreneurs think about the end result and how they will feel after they achieve success. Most employees can't see past a month. They have a monthly income that dictates how that month will go. So most of their lives are lived month to month. All the while entrepreneurs have a one year plan, a five year plan, and a life plan. Successful people take charge of their lives. They chose how their life will be played out. Most employees are followers who do nothing more than take orders from bosses. Most people are employee material. A small number of people have what it takes to be entrepreneurs. This is another reason why internet marketing doesn't work for everyone. Ever wonder why it is that just a handful of people rule the world?
Internet marketing doesn't work if you don't work. If you are one of those people who are ready, willing, and able to take charge and control of your own life then team up with successful entrepreneurs ASAP. If you are ready to be along side the most successful people then this is it. If you are ready to fire the boss and spend more time doing the things you love and enjoy, then come on board! Until next time, happy marketing!
