State of the market was rotten but the fix begins with you

Chances are you've come to this conclusion too, or at least you are probably very frustrated with the State of things. Internet marketing is not what should be used. In fact I would say that the market is broke and about to implode in on itself.

First, a definition: when I say internet marketing I mean the business of helping people make money online by selling information, tools or software. Internet Marketing can mean any niche online (ie selling diving ebooks) marketing. But here we are mainly speaking IM as help other people sell, teaching them how to market (make money niche products or products).

The sad thing is that sales and conversions are down across the Board. You are viewing an infinite stream of utter crap you peddled snake oil salesmen. Most people are not even remotely attempting to help students and customers, let alone their JV partners … Now it seems that IM is a race for the quick cash grab it before it's all over (just one look at the category of emarketing Clickbank to confirm this).

We've been in this industry for over 7 years and have always enjoyed it. We are also known to only releasing quality products with a genuine desire to help people and always stick to our promises ... Luckily there are a lot of other marketing like us. But it seems like we are a dying breed of old dinosaurs ... But I think it's time for dinosaurs roar and rid the world of pests!

We want to solve this problem – and here is the plan!

5 years ago was released the original Formula of success of Internet Marketing. Was that a no fluff step by step guide to getting started in internet marketing. Was not as sexy as today's "press a button to get rich" BS ... But it was what people needed to know, a game plan that has worked (and still don't). IM Formula for success since it was read by over 100,000 people and helped countless of them build their first list, make their first dollar online – and not just because it went to become true IM success stories.

Given the sad state of IM think that now is the time for a new Formula of success of IM. We are currently working on a completely new version of writing for 2011 – and like its predecessor, we're going to give away free (because now more than ever, it is necessary in this area).

While we work on that, I'll use this blog to try to work on a change of mind in IM – to communicate with you guys to hear your thoughts and let you inspire us to create a better product that will help the industry.

I have a series of blog posts and other things envisaged here's roughly how is going to go down ...

Today: the fix begins with you!How fraudsters take advantage of the situation and how you can identify and avoid their crapWhat that we are doing to make sure we never promote a crappy product again (this will shake some of the people who think we are their partners JV) poll: like the original IMSF we survey (the potential reader) so we can create exactly what you need.Preview of the new Internet Marketing success with IMSF FormulaAnd finally releasing version 2 – and free access to it.

And yes the correction begin with you!

Because the customer is always right and you have the opportunity to vote with your feet ... If nobody has bought junk we would have a problem!

Greed, hope, despair, etc. are all natural human emotions – but on the basis of the emotions that make for very poor business decisions and scammy copy writers know that too well.

Decisions of business (what products to buy, what projects to start etc.) Using logic and is mainly a business plan. You must decide where you want to go into IM and how you want to reach – and only you can make decisions on wises what information and tools to purchase.

Chances are the vast majority of readers of this blog a Flailing around – finally buy the flavor of the week, because this shiny thing may just be what makes money.

While what you must do is working on a plan – and then display all potential purchases in light of "will this move further towards my goal me" – that is not the case should go (no matter how good it seems) as the product will be just a distraction.

Easier said than done, I know ... but at the end of this series of blog posts and with the release of a Formula of success IM v2 you will have a level + the knowledge and tools to make it happen.

For now lets try an exercise. I'm going to post here two new products – they are both great quality (and from trusted friends), but the thing is … even the best products are only good for certain people. These could help you advance your business, or can be a distraction – only you can know for sure.

I'm not posting these to buy – I'm posting this because I want you to read, think and decide ... If you buy because you need it, great! If you decide that they will be a distraction, which is great too – in both cases they just stuck to your plan, I'm informed decision and stuck to it. Here are the products:

1. Clickbank Gamers phenomenal if you like and easily cash on niche game – useless if you don't have any intention of moving that niche at all.

2. WP traffic superb Suite for bloggers and site flippers – useless if you don't want to blog at all.

As I said before – in my next post I am going to talk about how marketing more sinister are exploiting the current market (and you!) – and how you can identify and steer clear of their garbage. To make sure they are kept in the loop, please take a few seconds to subcribe to the blog feed below and/or grab this bonus to get the free list.
