I find it funny how the author of the article is bashing the book for offering no real ways of value creation, when he is an internet marketer... The very definition of no value creation.
I once got a book from this Warrior Forum (an online marketing forum) he speaks of, that would supposedly teach you how to earn money online. The main point of this book was that if you want to sell online, you must first find people who are willing to buy online, such as on (you guessed it!) the Warrior Forum itself! Funny enough, on that forum all the praises were positive, suggesting that people are too ashamed to admit they were cheated (or the admins, who took a large cut of all sales on this forum, deleted all posts that could have a negative financial impact). Thank god I downloaded the book!
I know that ad hominem argument is a logical fallacy, but I find it hard to believe the personal opinions of dishonest people.
You realise I mentioned the Warrior Forum in a negative light, right? I think it's probably the worst forum in the world on the subject of wealth creation. Hence, the cesspit of stupidity.
For your information, Internet Marketing has much more to do with value creation than you probably think. It's a multi-million dollar industry. But if you confuse Internet Marketing with what you see on the Warrior Forum, I can see how it's easy to make that mistake...
Hm... My bad, then. Could you possibly point me to another resource so that I could get more informed? All I ever read was either affiliate marketing (which has certain value, but the better the product, the less it's needed) and the internet "get-rich-from-your-couch" schemes which are very... appalling.
Honestly, I think what you saw on Warrior Forum is pretty representative of the grand majority of info products floating around there on Internet Marketing. The good ones are few and far between, primarily because anybody can claim to be an expert. There's no barrier to entry.
When I refer to Internet Marketing as my profession, I don't mean slinging info products in the form of a pyramid scheme. I simply mean working with brands to sell and promote their products online. Big brands though, brands you've probably actually heard of, with legit products that have nothing to do with the Internet! Unfortunately, Warrior Forum is a circle jerk driven by gurus who actually know very little about marketing brands online. They only market their own crappy products.
I frequently go to the warrior forum and it has helped me. How they make their money is usually not very good or over-saturated.(IE: referral marketing). However, the marketing methods have given me some great ideas. I borrow some of the ideas they use and market my own products.
