You are right in marketing yourself and there is a right way and a wrong way to that as well.
It's when you give to peoples' needs and direct them to solving their need you gain credibility. With that credibility you are responsible to give honest and valuable products/services. You may ask for a fair price for this. That is business.
I'll blow my whistle for a second but only for an example.
I offer drum lessons on my site and some are free and others via ebook. I also teach privately, do free concerts and do clinics in schools (mostly for free).
But, I get offers all the time to do a gig here and there and I take the ones that are lucrative for sure.
The point is I am teaching a service that the person can turn into a business if they want to. I make no claims to the kind of money they can make or will make. It is purely a service of their choosing. Is there a market without promise of fortunes? THERE SURE IS.
This is the real key to success. I have a proven skill that is in demand and I can offer my knowledge for a fee.
Marketing cell phones can be lucrative IF you have the knowledge that the public iis looking for.
The marketing to marketers is a tricky course because it can be very mislesding. People enter into it for whatever reason (Usually BIG $$$$$ Promises) and because they didn't research for a market they can be a 'specialist' in and tweak the info they get to fit the market they all usually fail.
Yes, information sells and the internet is the best platform for anyone to do this with. I see a lot of the randomizers, matrix, and so on similar to money laundering. It exchanges a group of hands so fast it can't be traced by anyone.
These statements are general and not intended to any one program.
There are so many ways for people to succeed on the interent but understand what you goal is BEFORE you try finding buyers.
Thanks for the post.
