Online Marketing Myths

6 Online Marketing Myths 

Every day thousands of people go online to make money but most of them fail miserably because they either truly believe one of the 6 OnlineMarketing Myths or or all of them. You can read them below and discover the grain of salt in all of them. 

Myth #1: Online Marketing is EASY

This is probably the biggest online marketing myth of all, and let me tell you online marketing is hard, takes time, effort not mention money and anyone who suggests otherwise is trying to sell you a bunch of horse hockey. Granted that it's comparatively easier to brick and mortar in that there's no inventory to carry, no shipping of goods no sales staff and virtually no overhead, but a lot of work is still involved.

Myth #2: ANYONE Can Make Quick Money Online

Folks, this is simply not true. Unless someone gets off their lazy boy recliner and download/read everything they can about internet marketing, and put an action plan in motion, they will never make a dime on the internet. DO NOTHING, MAKE NOTHING. 

Myth #3: You Can "GET RICH QUICK" On the Net!

Remember it is not that difficult to make money online, but IT DOES REQUIRE WORK!!! If you are here for a free handout, in top right corner you will see an “X” go ahead and click on it and go back to the fantasy land Get Rich Quick does not exist here or anywhere. This is the trap that a lot of newbie internet marketers falls into including myself when I first started, why? because scammers make it sounds so easy and let me tell you, chasing "get rich quick scheme" is a WASTE OF TIME!, money and energy. It just won't happen overnight, instead do some research and find out what people really want and need then give it to them especially a sense of reality. 

Myth #4: It's FREE to Do Business Online

This is one of my favorite online marketing myths because I believed it during my first year of internet marketing and it just wasn't true then, it isn't true today. Compared to opening your first coffee shop or gift shop in downtown Los Angeles, internet business start-up cost and maintenance cost is pretty low. Once you have your domain set up, you only pay for internet connection, advertising and ongoing educations, that's it. You can't expect to make money selling free stuff and ask others to do the same. Folks! it takes money to make money but very low cost. 

Myth #5: It's TOO LATE to Start an Internet Business

Most internet marketers would love to hear people say "It's too late now, too many competitions, I should just pack my bags and go home, the internet is too complicated, etc...". You know why? the less people they have to compete with the better which in turn will make them more money.The fact is, it's never ever too late to start anything and that includes internet business. 

Myth #6: The BIG Money Is There  For You To Grab

If you believe that you will succeed you're right, if you believe that it won't work, you're right also. To summarize, you have heard people's story how they're making a fortune on the internet and how easy it is but the reality is some stories are NOT out of this world or unrealistic but it just doesn't happen overnight. My online marketing myth is you just have to apply a bit of common sense into it, find what you love to do, have a game plan, stay focus and you my friend might find the right opportunity to make all your dreams come true.
