To Make the Most Dollars, Make The Most Sense

The world of Internet marketing isn't all it's
cracked up to be. In fact, it can be a brutally
cold one. Believe me, I learned the hard way.

I started trying to make money online when I was
14. Like today, there were a lot of scams out
there, and being so young I was especially
vulnerable. I wasted hundreds of dollars.

The weird thing was I was a pretty smart kid. I
knew the value of a buck. But when I came online
I didn't think that "real world" rules applied.

All too often people come online and lose all
sense of reality like I did. I see two types of
people who fail online.

The first type of person thinks EVERYTHING online
is a big scam. They don't think they should have
to pay for information in e-books or for tools
they will need.

If you have to put money into your Internet
business, it's a definite scam. They also may be
freebie seekers and try to suck all your time and
knowledge away for free.

Don't get me wrong. You should always have your
"Scam Radar" up when you're online. But let's
think about this logically. Can you startup an
offline business without investing any money into
it? Even a small family owned business requires
some startup capital.

So why would an online business be any different?
Starting up an online business is a lot cheaper
than starting an offline one, but the same
principles apply. This is what economics is all
about. People make money by providing a product
or service to their customers. It works the same
way online.

The second type of person thinks the total
opposite. They throw all judgment and common
sense out the window and usually dive headfirst
into a whirlpool of scams.

They join downline clubs, gifting clubs, "Send $5
to everyone on this list" programs; they usually
spam people and end up wasting a whole lot of
money. I should know. I used to be a Type 2 when
I first started out! I don't know why, but I just
figured the Internet was a magical wonderland
where money fell from skies of gold. Then I woke
up.

Type 2 people give legitimate online businesses a
very bad name. In fact, they are usually the ones
who turn people into a Type 1! After seeing all
these scams, it's no wonder some people look at
the Internet as one big con.

Type 2 people usually give up eventually and walk
away with a bad taste in their mouth. They also
end up looking at the Internet as one big scam.

Then there is a third type of person, and
hopefully you fall into this category. They see
the wonderful potential of the Internet and
online business, but also realize that the same
universal laws of business apply. They are
willing to learn what works, invest time and
money in their business, and be patient and
persistent.

I realized after awhile that you shouldn't try to
"make money" online. That's too vague. You should
start a legitimate business and treat it as a
real one. And that's what type 3 people do.

Don't these people make the most sense? They also
make the most dollars (Get the pun?! ;)
