    Think about it for a second. Guides to making money online are either written by people who have made money online or people who are trying to make money online, right?

    Well obviously those who are trying to make money online don't know all the steps yet so their guides are clearly gonna be missing some steps. But let's talk about those who have made money online.

    Why Would They Create Competition For Themselves?


    If they gave you every step they took to get where they were and gave you their exact business model, all they'd be doing is creating competition for themselves and that would clearly do damage to their own business.

    So if you're going to spend money on a make money online program, and you expect it to take you every step of the way, think again!

    With almost every good make money online program, they'll take you most of the way, but if you want to succeed, you're going to need to take some initiative and be a little creative.

    So any of you new to making money online that were thinking about spending your money on something you expect to make you rich by tomorrow, then DONT!

    That's all I wanted to say. :)

    In my opinion, marketers who are new to making products sometimes can be the best ones.

    Heres my reason.

    Alot of these big guru types just slap stuff together. Im not saying all of them but there is quite a few that do.

    They do this because they know it will sell.

    They already have a track record and people buy from them.

    See the new product maker puts there heart and soul into it because they want it to be perfect.

    From the sales copy to the graphics and down to the product itself.

    They pass out review copies to get other peoples opinions and fix anything that needs to be fixed so i think that if you want the heart and soul sometimes its good to buy a product from someone that just produced there first product.

    I agree to some extent, in free reports you definitely won't get the whole picture.

    When your market doesn't saturate! For example you have a tactic/strategy that you can apply to any/many niches. An Ebook will be long for that, so may be a report. After reading that particular report, which include obviously your success story with this tactic, the reader will be able (with some skills) to replicate it somewhere else (the web is huge). Now you don't create competition for yourself. If your report is good, interesting and you have proof it works, it can sell for $40. Sell one thousands and you are making that money :p

    there is a sucker born everyday. That is why due diligence is so important before you invest your money in any program. That includes the ones that are presented at conferences by the founder or promoter. Although you are given a deadline, what a novel idea, you usually have time to do your research. Contact us is a part of the sales page generally, so you can contact them with specific questions. There are some good systems available if you know what you are looking for and take time to investigate.

    I like the marketers that are doing well but you just started hearing about them. My reasoning is that they must deliver quality content in order to make a name for themselves. They haven't been a guru for long and still remember how it was to be struggling and can really produce a product from that state of mind without leaving out any important steps.

    That's so true man! The bigger and bigger these marketing gurus get, the crappier the content. For the most part. haha. There are a few exceptions

    Yep, most of the ebooks sold here or on other sites are junk and 99% of the authors didn't even see $xxx from their guides in term of making them money. Not to talk about when I look the ebooks section here at DP, most of the threads have 0 replies.

    I have opened a thread recently with a really practical ebook, that can teach you some things for sure, offered a copy for $20 and no one bought it.

    Now I don't care about selling it, it was a test observation and just wanted to see what's the deal around here, why most of the threads are with 0 replies and hundreds of views..

    And like I said, my conclusion is that 99% of the authors here are selling stuff they don't know shit about.

    People don't know what to choose anymore and started to mass asking "are there any review copies?" (even I asked once and got an infraction), hoping that one day they will read something that will surely teach them how to make $100 daily with no investment, minutes of work involved setting the system up, and even my dog can do it if I train the damn animal... Sorry guys, not possible, get back to reality, it's time to wake up..

    My suggestion is to use google to it's fullest potential, because most of the info you'll ever need is absolutely free. Too much competition these days resulted in "info leaking" if you know what I mean, so go and take advantage of it, don't reinvent the wheel. Add something yours that is unique in terms of ideas and start making money.

    So if you're still into ebooks that much, take a look at my signature and download anything you want, it's copyright free material that you can distribute freely. However you will have to take a survey before any downloads but that's just to show some love for me... :)

    Oh yeah, I've noticed the mods are pretty tight here so I'll try not to get myself banned if this post is understood wrongly, just delete it before giving any infractions, I had like 10 of them until now for some stupid reasons. I guess I'll get one more for "questioning" the mods.. Oh well, life goes on..

    It is a nice idea to disclose it here. I have been fooling several time with this kind of ebooks and what i get back is nothing. it is just an idea but no real practise and product.

    I think some of the best guides come on forums like these (especially the Warrior Forum, and no this is not a Sales Pitch). Its the same information being sold at up to $97, except that its free or very cheap.

    At least on here, you know that the posts are simply advice, instead of an attempt to make money.

    But to more directly relate to the OP, I agree with your overall opinion and like the way that Internet Marketing guides are. They shouldn't be cookie cutter and should force you to either get creative or get out. The problem though is that they advertise it as comprehensive and cookie cutter, and this throws off newbie customers. Just the nature of the business I guess.
