“The Dilemma Of Internet Marketers That You’re Probably Struggling With — And What To Do About It”
By Marlon Sanders
There’s a basic dilemma all Internet marketers face: Learn the new methods that get better results Versus — Do the basics that you know work. If you want to make maximum profits, then you need to learn and use the latest methods on the one hand. On the other hand, if you want to make maximum profits, you have to DO things and FOCUS. You can’t learn everything and do everything.
It’s a classic double bind.
If you spend all your money and time learning new things to get better results, then you don’t have time to DO the things you know work. At the same time, if you spend all your time DOING, you often miss out on the easy profits created by newer, more state-of-the- art methods. This puts internet marketers in a real time crunch because a person can’t do both — learn all the new methods hitting the market practically weekly AND also DO what needs to be done to make a profit.
What’s the solution? I call it breathing. It’s a natural rhythm. You learn. Then you do. You learn. Then you do. If you get stuck in learning and don’t do, you won’t make the most you can. And vica versa, if you DO but don’t learn, you’ll spin your wheels and quite possibly not succeed.
In my case, I’m devoting this whole entire year to implementing just one new SYSTEM of thinking in my business. I started on this system one year ago. And I let myself get quickly sidetracked last year. I decided that this year, I want to take the one concept and fully and completely implement it. I talk to some marketers who just don’t know what they’re doing. They REALLY need to learn more. They need to learn about writing copy, graphics, doing surveys, finding markets and product creation. On the other hand, there are MANY marketers who HAVE been in this business 3-5 years and know all the basics and some of the advanced stuff. Yet, they just don’t get products out. They don’t get promos done. They get caught up in the paralysis of analysis and don’t do ANYTHING. That’s why the natural rhythm of money is to learn and do. Learn and do.
If what you DO doesn’t work, it’s time to LEARN some more. But if you haven’t DONE what you’ve LEARNED, it’s time you focus on DOING for awhile. A lot of people get stuck on that point because DOING is a pain in the tail end a lot of days. You ALWAYS are going to be afraid of making mistakes. You are ALWAYS going to run into frustrations and things that don’t work right. It’s ALWAYS going to take longer and be harder than you THOUGHT. But the people who succeed can tolerate the PAIN OF ACTION. It’s easy to sit back and learn. I love it.
But DOING means you run into obstacles and things that don’t work right. It means you’re confronted with the details of learning programs. It means you’ll screw up and make mistakes. Worse than that, it means you’ll DO things that don’t work! For every 1 thing that WORKS, you’ll likely try TEN that don’t. And I don’t care WHO you are. If someone denies that, they either don’t have much experience, they’re lying or they aren’t honest with themselves.
I remember discussing this whole topic with Corey in times past. I would think I was the only one who had such and so thing not work right. I’d talk to Corey and find out that he’d had the same exact issues. It made me feel a little better that I wasn’t the only one in the world who had things that didn’t work as I anticipated. I hope this article gives you a little more clarity on the fundamental dilemma of Internet marketers and puts you on the path to greater profits.
