Making Money Online Requires Skills - Not Dreams

Making Money Online Requires Skills - Not DreamsBy Bruce Rose

Who doesn't want to live a luxurious life style, have all their dreams come true, and receive a six figure income by only working two hours a week. You do, and it's only a mouse click away, or at lease that's what the sales page said.
Well, before you click that mouse, let me give you something to think about. I heard this from a professional internet marketer named Michael Andrews. He said, " Chase after the skills and the money will follow. Chase after the money and you'll become frustrated and give up by tomorrow."
Now, stop and think about what that sales page promise you. Exactly how are you going to make the money you've always dreamed of ? Did it promises you big money, if you buy their magic formula of success, and only if you hurry and buy it today. Did the sales page tell you what market the magic formula works best in? Did it tell you how to find that market? Or did it say, you'll be one of the lucky few who has this magic money maker that everyone wants, and of course they will find you, with credit card it hand.
Well, if you still want to click on that buy it now button, which will make all your dreams come true, make sure somewhere on that sales page there is a money back guarantee.
I truly believe there will be a special place in hell for internet copy writers who only sell the dream. But such is life, they are only feeding upon the chasers of dreams who don't want to acquire any skills to make their dreams come true.
There are thousands of ways to make money online, but you need to find the market for what you have to sell. The myth of , "if you only build a site and have that special offer, they will come," that's all it is, a myth. This is one of the biggest problems with the major of internet money making formulas, they don't teach any skills that are applicable to an ever changing market place.
The holy grail to success online is a three step process, find a viable market, attract customers to that market and influencing them into buying what you have to sell. That is it, it works ever time.
There are hundreds of places to find people who can teach you the skills you need to succeed online. Be it, through online training forums, paid membership sites or even through the use of e-books, provided they are followed up with some form of after purchase mentoring or training.
The measure of your success online will be determined by the skills you've acquired through the learning method you have selected. You should have walk away skills that you can apply to any viable market you should decide to enter.
So, always remember this, "Chase the skills and your dreams, will come true."
