Modeling Success
I am on a lot of mailing lists, and like to keep track of what's happening in the Internet Marketing scene, so I am pretty in tune with what is going on.
The older more experienced Marketers are teaching new people the business with their special Coaching and Mentoring Programs.
And then as part of their Coaching service they will help these new marketers break into the business, by promoting them to their list. Now there is nothing wrong with this, and it is actually a great thing. This is how some most all the great marketers get started.
Problem is, that it seems like everyday there are more and more people who graduate from these Coaching Programs are getting into the business and want to start giving their Marketing Advice.
And one thing that I can tell you is this, in the Internet Marketing world there is an incredible amount of different information floating around, and it can be overwhelming sometimes. This is what's called Information Overload. And this is not uncommon, and it happens to everyone.
Another problem is that you don't always know if the information you are getting is credible or not. Is this just something that someone has learned from someone else, and is now passing themselves off as an expert? Or is this coming from someone that has really done it.
This is why it is essential that you know the person that you are receiving the information from.
A good marketer is always looking to learn new things, and looking for someone to learn from. If you find just one golden nugget of information it can make you a fortune in your business.
That's why it is critical that when you are looking to learn from someone, look for a person who is out there actively Marketing, someone who is actually in the trenches doing it on a daily basis.
If they are just someone who is learning like you are, then they are definitely not the best person that you want to learn from.
Look for someone who has been in the business for a while and has a good track record of success.
This person can become your Mentor. When you find someone that you look up to and want to be like, then just look at what they are doing and copy them.
This is the easiest way to be successful in your business, Model Success. If it's working for them, then it can work for you too.
