Why I Am Not A Trainer
I got asked a question by a friend of mine.
It’s one I’ve gotten before.
“Why don’t you put together a course on SEO or
PPC to teach novices what you do?”
My answer?
There are already enough trainers out there in my humble
opinion. I see way too many, and I mean WAY TOO MANY
people out there calling themselves network marketing
“trainers” or internet marketing “trainers”.
I was on Twitter today. The “Similar to you” space on the
right side bar had some profile snippets.
One was for a guy who said he was an attraction marketing
“trainer”. I clicked through to his blog. More than half of
the home page above the fold is occupied by a graphic of
himself and his self-proclamation that he’s a network marketing
“trainer” and an internet marketing “trainer.”
In this day and age, in this economy, I’d rather hear
from a DOER. I’d rather hear from someone who
fights a battle in the trenches every day and is willing
to report back with results from the day’s combat.
You ever see the HBO series, “Band Of Brothers”?
A lieutenant named Sobel “trained” Easy Company based
on a lot of theory. He was a “trainer” alright.
But he folded when it came time to face the enemy.
A man named Winters (one of the greatest American heroes of all time IMHO)
was not a “trainer”.
He didn’t work strictly from theory.
He led his men into battle with a “come follow me” attitude.
I’m going to keep doing the same in the digital marketing arena.
I’m just going to keep doing.
How To Get Home Based Business Leads
Home based business leads can be captured online regardless of your knowledge level by using these methods.
Choose 2 or 3 forums in your market and post often. Begin in a forum by commenting on the threads started by others and try and be one of the first people to comment on a new thread. Once you’ve added value through commenting habitually for one week or two then you must start creating your own conversations.
