The reason? In my view, it's because we are all conditioned to believe that you NEED things to succeed online, or that there are a series of educational requirements, or "scams" you need to fall for, or strikeouts you need to experience, before you hit your first home run.
I say that's complete and utter nonsense. (even though I personally have experienced much of the above, unfortunately!)
You DON'T need to learn a zillion new things. You don't need to buy any expensive software, follow any online guru's or believe any more of the bull that permeates the online marketing landscape.
You need 2 things.
- A community.
- And a curriculum.
That's really it. And the REAL secret to making your first $1000 is NOT in selling 100 $10 dollar ebooks. Instead, it's selling FAR fewer people on premium priced services that you can offer for premium dollars.
For example, it's MUCH easier to sell 10 people a $100 personal consulting package than it is to sell 100 ebooks.
And believe it or not, it's actually EASIER to sell 5 people a $200 dollar consulting package than 10 at $100.
Of course at some point there does kick in a level of financial resistance, depending on what you have to offer and the value that it brings, but a good argument could be made that if there is something you are really good at, it makes the MOST sense to simply package it at $1000 and sell 1 person. (with a goal of selling many people that same offer, once you demonstrate you can deliver)
The fact is, the people you hear about making millions of dollars online are almost NEVER doing that with high volume, small ticket items. Instead, they are selling far fewer actual "units" than you would believe... but their prices are so high, that it translates into big, big bucks.
So TOO can you - and in an honest, ethical and contribution oriented business model that values your efforts and abilities AND your bank account to boot!
