You might be, if your product is not priced correctly.

One of things I've learned is that a lower price is not necessarily a better price. In fact, sometimes higher price also gives you more customers. And far more profit.

For example, I have a product called CBmall. There are two versions of CBmall: Gold and Silver. The Gold CBmall sells for $97. The Silver CBmall sells for $47. You can see differences here:

Frankly, differences are minor.

This is quite different from investing in "opportunities" to make money.

Investing in yourself means you are building skills that you can use in your life. Within context of internet marketing, investing in yourself means spending money and time on materials that get you ducated on this business.

It may be marketing, site design, copy writing, email campaigns, search engines or any other topics. There's no shortage of information. In fact, I often say that information overload is our #1 occupational hazard.

Still, you can't stick your head in sand and expect to build skills necessary to succeed in this business.
