EP25: [Marketing Mindset] What does it take to be a marketer online – Part 1?

<p>Welcome back, friends.</p> <p>Yeah I know, if I've said it once I've said it a thousand times.</p> <p>“Most of the online marketing information shared by the Gurus is designed to confuse you, the naive buyer into purchasing their products.”</p> <p>If you knew the truth, you would not purchase their products. Their products will not EDUCATE you and provide the continuing education you really need.</p> <p>There is a reason why lawyers go to college to learn their craft. And why there are laws that only allow a person that has a diploma and passed the Bar Exam to practice Law.</p> <p>Anyone that has been represented by a lawyer appreciates knowing they are educated and not someone that just took a few classes online.</p> <p>Their life, business, and family may be at risk if their choice of a lawyer was a mistake.</p> <p>So, I must ask you, why do we all think anyone can just waltz in, throw up a website and start practicing the craft of marketing WITHOUT first becoming educated?</p> <p>I don't want to sound like a hardass, and I know it could easily sound that way, but I have seen too many people get hurt by marketers who take advantage of unwary customers who just wanted a piece of the dream.</p> <p>Online marketing is a business.</p> <p>Big Business!!</p> <p>Now even more than ever.</p> <p>But it is deceiving.</p> <p>It's easy to go online and look at a website and think, “I can do that”.</p> <p>“I can replicate what they have. Replicate their tripwire product and squeeze page. Replicate their sales page and product.”</p> <p>“I can even replicate their emails too.”</p> <p>Yes...</p> <p>Yes, you can.</p> <p>You definitely could replicate all those things, and most likely still fail in the process.</p> <p>Why?</p> <p>Listen in to learn more.</p> <p>If you think you know of some improvements that could be made, let me know.
