Advice for Internet Marketing Newbies

by: Dan Waggoner

Today I want to give some helpful advice for the Internet Marketing Newbies. Yes, I know that the term “Newbie” is a terrible word. I hate it too, but hopefully it will get the point across. I am still relatively new in this field myself.

My advice is simple and it comes from my own experiences and what I’ve learned so far. Read as much as you can and learn as much as you can but work in your own league. Be very weary of the so called Big Shots and Gurus out there.

Partnering with other people is good and can be very beneficial but try to do it with people and or companies who are on the same level as you. How do you know who is on the same level as you? It’s simple. If you make an attempt to contact somebody and they either (A) don’t respond at all or (B) send you some kind of automated response then they are not in your league and a waste of your time.

You’ll accomplish much more partnering and learning with people who actually personally answer their emails. The gurus are too worried about getting your money as opposed to trying to earn money with you. Besides, why would you want to deal with somebody who won’t even respond to an email or who sends out automated responses. To me that’s just not a good way of doing business. I make it a point to personally answer all my emails in any given day if it’s a real email. I don’t answer automated email addressed to me because it’s not real people. It’s just somebody trying to sell me something. Take it from a guy who spent 16 years in the people business. You can never do better than giving the personal touch.

Understandably some of them are doing so well that they don’t have time for the small timers like you and me but that just solidifies my point. Internet Marketing can be a great business to be in and there is much room for advancement but always try to associate with real people and for that matter always treat people like they are people. Don’t waste your time or money on somebody who is too big for their own good.

Simply put, as an Internet Marketing Newbie it’s ok to learn from the Guru but don’t become the Guru.

Best Wishes!
