I do like to get to the point, so let me start out by telling you that “Yes, I am now happy to say I am an internet marketer”. However, I was not always so happy about it. I made some very costly mistakes when first starting out and that is the purpose for this article. If I can help anyone else avoid this, then all my trial and errors were well worth it. I simply want you to know more of what you are getting into than I did. It is enjoyable and certainly has many advantages, but the sales letters are so powerful and this is where you need to be careful and proceed with caution…

Want to make money online the fast and easy way? This is what the so called gurus promise you; not only that but, make money over night, while you sleep, works on auto pilot, it’s a miracle! Blah, blah, blah. Now let’s think about this for a moment. If you could make thousands of dollars (or even hundreds) on auto pilot overnight with ease and at low cost to you, wouldn’t everyone be doing it? Of course they would! Internet Marketing is a frenzy of lies. There is some truth, only in small amounts and scattered about here and there. There are literally thousands of products to choose from. All claiming to be the best and how they now only wish to help others.

All they ask for in return is money. Here is where you need to be very careful. Some will charge thousands, others only hundreds while convincing you that you need their service in order to make money. Then they promise you will make thousands of dollars within 3 months or so… only they cannot guarantee this, or refund your money. Products are all guaranteed, (though you should still use caution) but not coaching sessions. I have heard some of the most heart breaking stories from these scams. Make sure you do a thorough search on anyone before paying large amounts of money to them. If you only listen to me on one thing, let it be that.

I call this my new form of gambling. Yes, you can get hooked on this just like any other addiction. I should know. I have ordered tons of products, visited seminars, went to workshops, attended webinars, teleconferences, you name it. And finally, I get it! I now know what all it entails to be successful at internet marketing.

Why couldn’t any of those sales letters just tell the truth? Maybe people would get turned off right away…It is a lot of work, but I actually LOVE it! I always enjoyed writing, and I feel this provides many outlets for that and it has been a great learning experience. It’s also a great way to release your creative energy. Now I am positively convinced that all this work really will pay off.

I am making some money right now, but it took time. Sales ads never tell you this, and the money I am making is nowhere near what I expected. I mean every time I bought a product, they all guaranteed that I would be making thousands of dollars in no time at all. I actually left my job because of my belief in that! Yet, they fail to mention your advertising cost. And easy, they all say that too. It is pretty simple, but not necessarily easy to do. You should also know that it takes time. Yes, this is worth repeating. I was feeling like a failure because of this. Now I realize it is not just me, but for everyone. (Especially those of us who finished school before the computer age.) I do have intermediate skills, and still I wouldn’t say “this is so easy; if you can turn on a computer…”

This is why I set up The Scammer Alert. I began thinking, “what if I could start all over?” knowing then what I know now. I would have saved a lot of time and money for sure! However, this is where all my trial and error really can help you. I have found some products that really are truly amazing. Believe ME! I have been thru them all or just about, and now I can offer you my reviews and ratings on the ones I found to be most helpful no matter what stage of internet marketing you are in.
