New post from your slacker guy James![]()
Honestly it's been so busy here guys. I promise to get a regular schedule going.
Why is internet marketing and some of the IM's in it, getting such a bad name. Well there are a couple of reasons and I am going to list them for you. I know there are probably more.
1. When a new product is launched, a bunch of them IM's fall all over themselves promoting it to their lists...without having the facts of whether or not it actually works. Traffic Anarchy is a great point and we will get back to that in a moment.
2. A lot of IM's do not have great help desks and/or do not respond to emails.
3. Products are over-hyped. As a copywriter, I would never write a sales letter that shows mansions, fancy cars and all sorts of rich boy stuff. Let's face the truth here, IM is work and when someone tells you it is point and click, watch thousands of bucks roll in, welll, should you believe it?
4. A lot of IM's use the same email copy. This is just plain stupid on their part. I'm on 20-30 lists and when I get the same email copy promoting a product, I hit delete. If you are an IM, you need to either write your own autoresponder or hire someone to do it. Yes, I know, I'm an autoresponder writer but I am also talking from the point of few of someone who actually buys. So back to Traffic Anarchy.
I read the letter like a lot of you probably did. It was good and I did notice he was not coming right out and explaining the product, however the price was decent so I bought it.
It turned out to be a re-hashed product. You can get similiar ones for free!!!
Traffic Anarchy talks about push button ease and a lot of IM's jumped on the bandwagon. The truth is this, you have to produce content and a lot of it, whether you do it yourself or use PLR or hire a writer. You are mass submitting to article directories, rss feeds, press release sites and social media. So how can this be, click a button and instantly get traffic???
Look the difference between Traffic Anarchy and the free software out there, is you can submit to RSS feeds, haven't seen that before.
The owner Steven something or other, I cannot be bothered looking up this turkey's name...does not answer emails and the pdf provided, is useless. In order to find out how to use the RSS part and a couple of other questions, I had to contact another blogger. Now this blogger is promoting Traffic Anarchy and I'm not, however he was kind enough to explain how this stuff worked and he was not happy that he needs to do this for folks who buy through his link.
So there you have it, Traffic Anarchy is okay but its not the miracle that everyone says it is. Buyer beware. Remember when you come to my blogs, I will tell it like I see it and not bust my butt trying to sell you stuff. Yes I promote products, most of them I have bought and used myself.
Before I go, I mentioned listening to music while you work and how helpful it is.
I want to recommend Brett Nicole to you. She is a Christian artist and she is AWESOME. I found her through a Facebook friends link to Youtube. Never listened to Christian music before and I must say, I was highly impressed with her lyrics, very thought provoking and moving stuff.
Gotta run.
James.
