“Beware Of Naked People
Offering You Their Clothes…..”
In the online world, there are no end of scams. Some of them are outright illegal and the obvious ones are those email money scams. However, there are some scams which are legal by law and the people who are suckered into them end up wasting their time, money and effort.
Bad news! There are no official authority to stop them, maybe except you! You can do your part to avoid them and you will be safe without getting scam. Sometimes when you do get scam into buying a crappy product, you can still get a refund so it is not too bad.
Yes, It Is Your Fault
In many sales letters, you will find the publisher assuring you that it is not your fault. I am so sorry to tell you the harsh truth that it is totally your fault! In the search of your magic bullet and easy button, you got scam into buying information and software that does not help you in your business.
Most people who got scam deserved it because they are lazy, greedy and they want easy money. I used to be such a victim when I first started out, I am glad that I have repented! Since there will always be greedy and lazy people, there will always be more than enough easy targets for scam artists.
People who want something for nothing
will end up with nothing for something…..
Selling The Sizzle Without The Steak
You might have heard of the term, selling the sizzle and not the steak. Some people came up with their own perverted version of this statement when they sell the sizzle without the steak, they are known to us as scam artists. The sizzle looks really cool but it can never fulfil your hunger.
In internet marketing, you only trust people who are in at least 1 other niche outside internet marketing. If you learn from people who do nothing but internet marketing then you are as good as eating up their stinking vomit! Yucks!
Not only in internet marketing, other markets such as forex trading, there are many people who has never traded who are teaching others how to trade. Take a closer look, they are making money promoting the program not by actual trading. There is no difference from network marketing scam artists.
People who know nothing,
promising you everything
by teaching you something…..
Ethical Affiliate Marketing?
Does that mean that if you want to be an ethical affiliate, you should not promote something that you do not know about? Yes and no, either way you can do it ethically with complete integrity…..
For example, if you are promoting some money making program and you are a beginner, you can show your own progress then recommend the program. You can also position yourself as someone who always test programs to make sure that they work. Either way, you can write honest reviews before you do a recommendation.
When you are new to a topic, take time to learn more about it. If you can, implement what you learn and show your personal proof and results. People are not stupid and they can tell if you are fake so no point trying to fake it.
Not An Expert?
Have you considered teaming up with an expert? Let him or her be the face of the business while you do the marketing behind the scenes, your cut would depend on your arrangement. You leverage on the expertise of someone and someone leverage on your marketing efforts, sounds like a fair deal?
I have done this more than once, where I do almost everything while the expert only have to produce quality content. In a particular case, I have ownership and majority share of the business. In another case, I do very little work and I also get a much smaller percentage of the profits.
Summary
I started out writing this post so that I can warn you about some scams and help you avoid them. It ended with affiliate marketing and partnering with experts. Hope you enjoy this little rant of mine.
