I originally setup this blog as a reaction to my situation. Things looked bad but it wasn't in my nature to lie down, give up and start whining. I never knew that by telling my story I would meet so many great people who were like me trying to make a success of their lives.
I would like to take this opportunity to say a big THANK-YOU to all the pople who have gone out of their way to contact me. YOU are my biggest motivation to keep going when so many people out there are so focused on the negatives. You guys keep me positive and the opportunities coming my way are more than I could have hoped for. I am establishing a network of really good people. If you have read my blog and think you have the right mindset, do not hesitate to get in contact with me. I reply to anyone who is out there, with the right attitude, and looking to be successful.
Take it easy,
Mike

Hi Mike,
ReplyDeleteI can only read the Warrior Forum, but can't post.
I can't help you outsource everything... because that (I believe) is impossible to do AND be able to sleep at night.
With that said, I'm documenting my quest to bank $5,000 a month doing nothing but article marketing. Keep your $1,000 and just do what I'm doing here:
Article Marketing Secrets
Hi Markus,
ReplyDeleteThe experiment was to outsource everything. If the techniique involved a website then that would need to be entirely outsourced also.
I will still carry this challenge on, I just need to work out how to get a good exposure for it to make it worth the gurus time.
I understand your challenge, however I simply think outsourcing everything sounds great on paper, but in reality is a surefire recipe for disappointment.
ReplyDeleteBeen there, done that.
Also, I'm pretty sure none of the gurus will take you up on your challenge because they're one launch away from being homeless. I'm not kidding. Most of the gurus fake it 'til they make it. And most of them are going to be homeless soon. A lot of these gurus brag publicly about their "success", but then contact me for help behind the scenes.
And others who have "made it" don't know how to make a profit other than promoting their own crap. For example, did you notice that in Frank Kern's "Screw Google", he experimented with over 400 tests and didn't make a profit on any of them?
Even Commission Blueprint is a scam. Just look at the guy's PayPal account balance... he obviously used javascript editing to fake his balance (see the underlined header columns):

(And by the way, who in their right mind would have a million dollars funnel into their PayPal account when everyone is scared to death about PayPal closing accounts for no apparent reason?)
Unreal! And the owner of Commission Blueprint has been alerted about this fraudulent screen grab... but it's still on his landing page -- this guy has big ones.
Either way I wish you luck with your experiment.
You are right. I have approached a few "Gurus" asking for coaching and they are all eager to take my cash until I go over my experience and I never hear from them again. They are just looking for easy marks I guess.
ReplyDeleteI got all the tools to make money and I know what I am doing. I think I have been suffering from a lapse in confidence. I read so much bullshit that goes against what I know from my experience that I start to doubt myself.
I have sold over £2,000,000 in digital online training courses, all through the internet. To do that I had to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds on PPC. OK, that was a shameless boast I know, but you don't hear me mention it often. And It doesn't mean I have millions in the bank, this was spread over a few years and it paid me a comfortable salary which I could not complain about (too much). So I am not a total noob when it comes to marketing online.
So many of the guides out there have wacky figures that go against all of my experience that I think you are right, they must be written by people who are totally faking it.
It is one of reasons I started this blog, with no agenda, so I could try to give some good advice and show people what is working without any cheap promotional tricks or hoops to jump through.
Someone accused me of starting the chalenge to see people fail. What a whack job! Why would an unemployed person chuck $1,000 in the bin? People are a total joke sometimes.
If the forum had permitted the thread someone could have got some great exposure on it. Maybe one day I will find a place that lets me post the challenge.
