Recently I got an email from a man I deeply respect, Duke Clarke. I always read his emails for two reasons: One, he has helped me through some major “obstacles” in my thinking about wealth and prosperity and Two, he always shares some really fabulous information. Plus, he is pretty funny as he “rails” against these online marketers promising million dollar results overnight and other extravagent (and empty) promises.
Today, it got me thinking… WHO is falling for this stuff? I remember when I first began my life coaching business, Moms Work, it seemed that I ran into one of two “crowds”… The crowd that thought I was a multi-level marketer and resented what they considered a “very clever disguise” of my “true” business… and the crowd that came to my workshops HOPING for a no-experience, no-time, no – investment needed way to bring in 10K a month. Seriously…
Anyway, Duke and I have this “authenticity” thing in common… and it is so refreshing! But, for these “rediculous promises” sales pages to be so common, they must be working on someone. I feel extremely sorry for those people truly “betting on” the GET RICH NOW WITH NOTHING REQUIRED OF YOU type of mentality. Because I know that our income (as entrepreneurs) is a direct reflection of how well we are serving our target market. Serve more. Make more. Serve BETTER. Make more. Give first. GET second. In business and in life….
