3. Don’t believe everything you read.
I love line from Billy Crystal movie I just saw called 61*. Micky Mantel says “Well, they said so on TV so it must be true.” There are some unscrupulous marketers out there, promising all kinds of impossible dreams, schemes, and riches. Use your common sense. No one can make a million dollars doing nothing, you can’t eat, shop and advertise and get paid enough to do it to make a living. You must sell something, either your knowledge, services, or products. And you might be able to eventually start receiving residuals for doing nothing, but my guess is that you started doing SOMETHING first.
4. Never talk bad about your competitors.
Instead, talk up your business. You can point out what you have, do or guarantee that your competitors don’t without naming names. Pointing fingers will only make you look unprofessional and trivial. Benefits sell, not negative comments and bashing others.
5. Don’t give up.
Now this doesn’t mean that you should forgo paying for your mortgage so that you can buy advertising. If you think that because you have placed your 10 ads, you have put up a website and you have made your banner and still didn’t become rich, you should quit, your mistaken. Anything worth doing is worth doing well. You might need to continue working at your J.O.B. until you start bringing in enough with your own business to reach your inner income goals. That’s ok, you’re working towards your goals and that’s positive. Regardless of what hype says, you can’t become wealthy overnight and by doing nothing.
I hope my opinions have at very least, given you something to think about.
