Internet Gurus are Shrill About Google Affiliate Slap

“If you don’t have a Unique Selling Proposition on the Internet, you’re roadkill sooner or later. It’s just a question of when.” ~Perry Marshall~
“The days of “thin affiliates” brokering clicks on the Big G are over.”~Amit Mehta~
“An affiliate promotion is not a career. It’s a test.”~Jonathon Mizel~
It’s astounding how often Internet gurus speak out of both sides of their mouth while still chewing. They are eternal optimists defying the law of gravity. Adwords works, and then it doesn’t. Then a new angle…and that window of opportunity closes. The circle never closes.
Here’s the point. Do you want to run your life and business like an ambulance-chasing lawyer? The big boys want you to act impulsively and buy whatever gimmick they are selling.
Honestly, most want you to succeed with their strategies and gizmos, and then have your testimonial in order to sell even more of the same. Yet most people who buy or simply download for nada a report or widget will never use it or profit from it.
All things in this universe are built from the inside (the mind and heart) and then manifested in a product or service. These gurus want you to believe that you can skip over the inside part and just roll in money.
But you and I know that a fool and his/her money are soon parted. No widgety-fidgety tool or report or continuity program will ever work until you believe in yourself.
And belief in yourself starts with small projects and accomplishments, not in making a killing in FOREX, PPC, Adwords, Google Mail, Video Marketing, or any other gimmick. They can all work, but only if you are clear about what you want in your life.
So what do you want in your life? Start to follow your God-given talents, rather than following all the smooth-talking marketing experts.
