Marketing: Can You Get Rich Quick?

DavidJackson

I just finished writing an interesting new article titled, Marketing: Can You Get Rich Quick?
 
I`d love to hear your feedback and get a conversation going.

no, you can`t get rich quick - despite the pyramid scheme and internet marketing scams that show up too often on this site and our spam filters.

DavidJackson

no, you can`t get rich quick
 
 
If you`d actually take the time to read instead of react, you`d know that`s exactly what I said in my article.
 
So, you`re a  lawyer who dispenses opinions without knowing the facts.
 
Pretty scary.

“That which does not kill us makes us stronger” is a quote from


Friedrich Nietzsche.  There are plenty of examples, maybe even most examples from real life, where things that don’t kill us actually make us weaker [e.g. his severe addiction to opium probably did not make him stronger]. 



 
There are also plenty of things in life that make us neither weaker nor stronger [e.g. a haircut, changing socks, etc.]  It’s a common quote, but really pretty meaningless.  I’m not sure what the marketing tie-in is with the quote.  I hear that dudes in prison say it a lot on MSNBC Lockup:Raw.  I guess lifting weights makes people in prison stronger.

who said you didn`t say what I said and vice versa?  Can`t we say the same thing without getting huffy?

You probably can, if you`re willing to be unethical.
I`ve been investigating selling information products (ebooks and the like), and I`d say a good 60-70% of the stuff I`ve seen on Clickbank is unethical in one way or another, unfortunately - "run your car on water," "you can make millions online," `cures` for ailments that are easily found by doing a Google search. It`s disheartening; I don`t want to take money from people like that.
Maybe it`s just a matter of the hype needed to sell the stuff that bothers me.
