Before you jump onto the Internet Marketing arena, please read these posts - Internet Marketing in the Public Eye; Part 1 & Part 2. I believe these posts provide a honest opinon on the whole internet marketing industry.

To break it down into small pieces, this is Internet Marketing for you.

1. Everyone claims to be Guru or discover a secret ‘Get Rich’ formula. Most internet marketers claim to be Master/Guru in Affiliates Sales or Make Money from Online Ads (E.g Google Adsense, etc) Or they will be the directly opposite, E.g. common people who made millions from these programs and want to share their secrets with you. (Cmon!)
2. Congrats! You Won! Or You Get Something FREE! This is the second thing you can expect, you won something, just key in your email and you can download your free e-book now. Or you get to buy something at a discount price, for a limited time only.
3. You can certainly find Email Subscription Box (email, name). Next they will try to get you to subscribe to their free newsletter or discount with this email subscription box.
4. Sometimes you get to see a display Box, Books or CDs. Then some internet marketers will have a nicely done up display box with books and cds in their websites, etc. This way you will think that these are the actual items you are getting.
5. An Unbelievable / Unresistible Offer. Finally you will get a unresistible offer being offered to you, maybe something like for a limited time period only, you get item a, item b, item c … to z for a one time cost of only $99.
6. Expect to see ClickBank. Most internet marketers will use clickbank to promote their products or get affiliates to sell their products.

No matter where you go, if someone claims to be a internet marketer, you will definitely one or two of these items in their websites. The next question you might ask is why are these a norm?

Here’s why.

1. Internet marketers make their money from their email lists. Most internet marketers will work on their email subscribers, and to try to get them to buy from them. Most of these follow-up are taken care by email marketing software already, they just setup the email list, fill it in with the right copy. And blast!
2. You are almost certainly to get an e-book. Shipping worldwide can be costly, so e-book is the best way to deliver to everyone, anywhere and at zero cost. Plus the cost of production of an e-book is zero, and you can always reproduce it.

So when you look at it, the potential to make good $$$ from it is very good. Consider this, you have 200 email subscribers and any email blast you do, 3% convert to sales, that’s about 6 person. And if your item cost $99 each. You made $594 already for doing nothing but sending out emails! Most of the time, internet marketers will work on their email lists again and again and again.. Lol.. so everyone is a millionaire internet marketer!

But here’s something that no one will ever tell you!

More and more people no longer fall for these ‘Get Rich’ secrets ‘ideas’. People reading up more from respectable websites on how to make $$$ online. So now… the question remain is Who else wants to be an Internet Markerter?
