 | | Hi Wim,some lessons are learned the hard way...but with info like yours it can teach the not-so-savvy..to learn "Here",thanks for the share. |
|
| |
 | | This is a good blog Thanks |
|
| |
 | |
| |
| | Thank you for the share Lonnie! If the going gets (too) rough, a small rest may do wonders! Best of luck! |
|
| |
 | | I'm having a rough go too so thanks for this blog |
|
| |
| | Thank you Don for commenting and sharing my blog! |
|
| |
 | | I agree with all 4 points you state here. Great points to ponder for people who are not making money on the internet. Sharing this. |
|
| |
| | Thanks Don for your comment and compliment! I appreciate this! Yes Nathan, I totally agree with you, IBO is a perfect place for newbies to orient themselves. You think it would be an idea to have a separate section for newbies on IBO specifically to help them get started? Hi Jonathan, I also don´t know how exact the 95% figure is? Anybody has some more data about this? |
|
| |
 | | "Lies, damned lies, and statistics" - Mark Twain. I've always been curious about the source of that 95% figure and its validity. Failure is a subjective debate but points 2&3 need to be avoided for success. IBO gives ample 'hopping' opportunities so point 4 is also relevant. |
|
| |
 | | Thank you Wim, your assessment is right on the money. I know all too well from personal experience! Places like IBO help educated people and your article certainly contributes. |
|
| |
 | | Thanks for a great article Wim, an excellent analysis of why those new to the game do not make any money and end up quitting. TB&L my friend |
|
| |
| | As the space for comments is limited just a few words: Thanks Jack and Rob for your comments and share! Great Marnee that you never gave up and finally managed it! Good point and tip for "newbies" you have there Len! Completely agree with you Michael! The problem is that most "scam" programs are "experts" in what you and I (and many others!) would consider "unethical"! |
|
| |
 | | Great blog Wim,
You mentioned that most "newbies" don't have the skill set to succeed and therefore are duped by all the scams out there.
That's why I believe, that if you're new to network/online marketing, join a program that has a system to follow that give
you the tools and teaches you how to use them, in order to succeed. I'm gonig to tweet and share your blog.
All the best,
Len |

| |
 | | Excellent blog Wim. A lot of excellent points. I know I fell under your 2 and 3 issues. Difference was I did not quit. |
|
| |
 | | Great post Wim, thanks for sharing it! Have a great night! |
|
| |
 | | I am not a fan of any kind of "marketing" that tries to convince people that what you are selling them is what they want. Present your offer, tell the truth, and then leave it up to the customer. We need to learn to have some respect for others. True wealth... |
|
| |
 | | Great blog post Wim. You really hit it out of the park with this one my friend. Thanks for sharing, I hope all the people expecting overnight riches read this one. |
|
| |
| | Thank you Silvia. Indeed it may take several years. Although I recently read another IBO blog which stresses the importance of being a good sponsor! If you encounter some good ones, "several years can be greatly reduced". |
|
| |
 | | Your blog is true. I think it takes years of diligence to succeed. |
|
| |
| | Thank you Kimberly, Sigurd, Ralf and Annemarie for your comments. I think the issue is very important, not only for those who fail but also for those who succeed! Just Imagine if we could reduce the failure rate to say 80%. This only increases the number of successful people 4 times! Which benefits all of us! |
|
| |
 | | Excellent blog, Wim. I think you've hit the nail on the head several times. Due diligence is so important and heavy-duty training must be minimized to increase more success. Thanks for sharing these important points. |
|
| |
 | | Great blogpost. Very good reasons why newbies fail. Thanks for sharing |
|
| |
 | | Very good written, this is one to read totally.
Success
