Learning Internet Marketing - The Smart Way

By Daniel Trainor

Millions of people worldwide are flocking to the internet looking for a way to make money online. Many of them will quickly realize that there is so much information out there, it's hard to know what to believe and what is rubbish.

There is so much hype in the internet marketing/home business industry these days, many believe that they can simply join a home based business program and start making loads of money with little to no effort.

These folks are in for a rude awakening when they realize that it just doesn't work that way. As with any other business or profession, you absolutely must educate yourself in order to be successful. In the home based online business arena, that means learning internet marketing.

When one sets out to learn internet marketing, it's hard to know where to turn for good, legitimate advice and training. There are tons of internet marketing ebooks, courses, and products out there and one could literally spend years and thousands of dollars sifting through the garbage and misinformation to find a few golden nuggets. The problem with most internet marketing training products or ebooks is that they only give you a small piece of the puzzle… maybe a couple internet marketing tactics and strategies. But are those strategies still relevant or are they last year's mediocre tactic that no longer works? You see, the internet changes so much, you need to stay on top of the latest trends in online marketing to stay ahead of your competition.

So what's the solution? How do you know what is current and what is outdated? Where can you find legitimate internet marketing training and mentoring? Rather than buying ebooks and other digital courses, it's a much better idea to join a mentoring program that provides live interactive training on a consistent basis so that you can learn and get questions answered in real time from mentors who are actually making six and even seven figures online.

Let me give you this analogy… if you wanted to learn how to golf, would you rather read an ebook written by someone who may or may not know how to golf him or herself, or learn directly from Tiger Woods in an interactive environment where he can actually visually show you what to do and where you can ask him questions and get them answered on the spot? You get the point.

Anyone who is truly serious about making a significant income online absolutely must find a mentor who can show them exactly what to do. It's really not rocket science, but why waste time and money trying to figure it out on your own through trial and error when it isn't necessary. In the words of the great Tony Robbins, "If you want to be successful, find someone who has achieved the results you want and copy what they do and you'll achieve the same results." Makes a lot of sense but far too many people overlook this simple fact especially when it comes to making money online.
