    People,
    Can you tell me are all those Ebooks, Online courses, trainings , guides (Of course I mean that they are not free) appear to be useful for someone? Of course I can't judge all as the same, but is this really something helpful and useful or this is just another marketing trick and way to earn money?


    What is your opinion or experience?? Coz, personally I have never tried and think that this is not the way to develop, all useful can be found in free sources(I understand that no one will tell you his/her secrets but you can get you inspiration!!!)

    There are no secrets. Successful people advertise. That's all there is to it.

    Most of those e-books and online courses have a looooong list of ideas, but the problem is that most of those "methods" are not feasible, and, you are putting in more hours and getting back less than a minimum-paid worker.

    Here is a link to all you need to know. It's a hell of a lot better, and realistic than anything out there.

    I must be a fucking dumbass for not selling it. *slams head repeatedly on keyboard*

    Good luck with whatever it is you choose to do.

    I would also avoid getting information overload. Just focus on one specific thing and avoid buying too many products.

    As a marketing consultant, for shits and giggles, I went to several seminars. I was curious on what all is out there. It is the same stuff you read here on this board.

    I have also shelled out a couple of grand on books, e-books, lists, and newsletters. Same shit...methods that are unrealistic and just not feasible. It's the same on message boards. That is when I decided to create my own e-book.

    You are going to get different opinions, and you really won't know for sure anyway, so the only way you are going to know for sure is to get out there and see for yourself.

    And although you will be reading the same shit that is not feasible, and or you make less than minimum wage, you should still stick to message boards. You'll get little nuggets of good tips here and there now and then.
