Internet Marketers Are Big Fat Liars

Are you tired of the Internet marketers taking money out of your wallet? Learn about the Internet marketing lies and how the Internet marketers use them to make themselves richer at your expense. Knowledge is power and the more you know the more power you will have to resist the Internet marketing lies.

By Lee Seats

We all know that advertisers and marketers stretch the truth to get you to buy their products, but none of them can top the sleazy Internet marketers. The Internet gives them the perfect platform to set you up to believe the lies they have in store for you. If you are not prepared and familiar with the Internet marketing lies you stand to lose a lot of money on your way to trying to make money on the internet.

The One Time Offer

Sometimes this one is true, but most of the time all you need to do is bookmark the page and come back days, weeks or months later and you can still get the supposed one time offer. It’s a sales gimmick designed to get you to act right away before you have time to reconsider the purchase.

The Price is Only Good for the first 100 Purchases

This one is also sometimes true, but most of the time if they can sell to hundreds or thousands at the original price they will. You have all see the counters or the crossed out number with the supposed current number listed beside it—these are usually jut unchanging graphics. It’s just another gimmick to get you to part with your money before you put too much thought into the purchase.

Anyone can Make Money with this Product

This Internet marketing lie is crafted to make you believe that you can’t lose if you buy the product. Don’t worry about the money you are spending because you can easily make it back and much more. The truth is that it may be possible to make money with the products but it will take a lot more work and skill than they lead you to believe. The Internet marketer gets you all wrapped up in the hype and tells you very little about the product and what you actually need to do if you are going to make money with it.

I’m a Millionaire—just do what I did and you can be a Millionaire too

If I had a hundred dollars for every form of this one I have seen I’d be a millionaire too. Those people that become successful working online do so by finding their own way and spending a lot of time figuring out what works for them. The expensive e-books, the costly membership sites and the high dollar courses will not allow you to duplicate their successes. If you want to succeed in making money on the Internet you need to work at it and find the things that play on your strengths.

Great Benefits for Free

Everyone knows that offering something for free is the surest way to get more attention to a product or service. Unfortunately, most Internet marketers will give you very little of value for free. They are focused on getting the most money they can from your wallet. One of the ways they do this is to get you to invest time and energy into their free product. You then become a prime target for their up-sell pitch where the product or service becomes a lot less free.

If you really want to make money on the Internet instead of losing it, you need to see past the Internet marketing lies and find your own way. There is plenty of good information out there and most of it is totally free. Look for honest advice from people who wish to share their knowledge instead of empty your wallet.
