…on the Internet? The truth that will inevitably make itself apparent, is that the main way that people do this is by – hold your breath – selling information on how to make money from the internet.
You might think that this smacks of pyramid marketing – well you may be right.
Are you thinking about buying a product that tells you how to build a successful blog, or that will generate huge amounts of traffic for your blog, or, will just make you millions without having to do anything? Well, the best of the products will give you some useful information or tips, and will have an easy refund process (if your view was that the product did not cut the mustard). The worst of the products will just try to ‘upsell you’ and see you as part of their cashpoint machine, and not really help you much.
There is an expression ‘Those that can, do. Those that can’t, teach.’ While ignoring the manifest unfairness on the teaching profession of this statement, for business, this statement often is more valid.
If guys really had the means to make huge amounts of money, then they would not sell it. Internet Marketers who sell products to ‘help’ others to make money on the internet, necessarily see this as the only way of making money on the internet. If the ‘sales funel’ is right on point – some do make alot of money. But 99% of the people who buy the product don’t.
‘Make money working from home’ is, in summary, a search term that will produce a large number of people selling a dream that has no place in reality. The downside is that often the people most needing to make money end up wasting it by giving it, with no hope of a return, to these sellers of dreams.
