Let me start by saying I am not a self proclaimed IM guru, on the contrary, I am opposed to any guruish comments on this site.  It’s not that I have anything against Gurus, respect to all, still being a guru can be kind of lonely.

Lets face it, we all are gurus of something – each of us has that certain something we are just a bit better than average at we can give back to others.  I happen to be the guru of doing, lets not go into the whole doing vs being thing here, I’m talking business after all ;)

Internet Marketing Duru is not for the lazy, shell-shocked or passive informations seekers out there (although you too will probably benefit from the tips and information on this site). If you are still searching for the HOW the WHAT the WHEN, then don’t be surprised you found my site (Karma?).

So, if you lasted this far into the post be sure to bookmark this site and come back to see what I put up!

“Lifting The Haze From the Internet Maze…

Internet Marketing Duru Spills The Beans on What Internet Marketing Gurus Don’t tell You

If you’ve been anywhere near the Internet Marketing world you probably noticed that Internet Marketing Training products are launched every couple of hours.

Some are by Internet Marketing Gurus like Frank Kern, Ed Dale or Howie Schwartz and others by upcoming stars.

Some are quality and some are recycled and watered down compilations, that frankly can do you more damage than good.

So how can you weed out the diamonds in the rough?

First off the number one mistake most people make when learning how to market online is to jump from course to course and from mentor to mentor.

And sure, it’s easy to get caught up in that urge to get the next best make money online product, I sure have… and I can tell you right now – most of it was not what I needed at that point and time!

The thing is  to build a successful online business there are 2 weapons you will need to arm yourself with;

  1. Focus
  2. Action

So focusing on one thing at a time, one mentor at a time and one skill at a time; taking major action; is a sure way to advance and grow your online business. There are only so many skills you can buy. As most entrepreneurs and successful business owners will agree” Nothing can replace the value of experience! and yes, I mean your experience!

So to recap…

See, I believe that of the biggest hurdles any affiliate marketer encounters is the self preservation of confidence – not to buy stuff! And most important – what you should be investing in!

When a Guru flaunts their red shiny object and tell you they hardly do any work – they are lying. No marketer sits back and waits for the money to roll in. If you believe that, then you are in the wrong profession.

First off, if you haven’t caught on by now – everyone is selling something!

Yes! You are being pitched to by professional marketers, trained to make compelling sales letters and hyped up promises.

When a Guru is pushing their latest product or someone else’s it is to make money. Now I’m not saying that all products are bad and that you shouldn’t buy any, but I do mean you should know exactly what you need.

Look, no one knows where you are with your Internet Marketing efforts – only you know that. But really, besides a basic education you should really be investing in Internet Marketing Tools and Services and TAKING ACTION. This is the only real way to learn. Of course these tools are not marketed using a shiny Lamborghini with the beach in the background.

Duru – Where Should I Start?

First thing I learned some basics and collected a flurry of great and practical info (I will give it to you for free if you stick around and point you in the right direction). Then I understood what kind of tools and software I need to buy (I will let you know how I use them and why I like or dislike them).

Of course there are some Internet Marketing skills that are harder to acquire – like the right mindset and I mean a super affiliate mindset.  You really need a mentor for that. So as not to get goofy you may be asking yourself why is mindset so important?

Because -if you don’t set out like a warrior, you probably don’t stand a chance…
