Business Opportunity Ebooks: Beware Of the Bull
There are so many business opportunities online, and often they are not worth squat. In this article I am looking at a particular kind of product: those e-books which claim to show you a brain-dead easy way to instant riches.
Take this for instance:
“$100,000/month guaranteed - start earning within 15 minutes!” This AdWords ad caught my eye as I did a Google search for “business opportunity” today.
Let’s get serious here — do you really think someone in their right mind can make such a promise? To make that much money you have to be very skilled at whatever you are doing. Now when I hop over to the sales page, I am told in blazing letters that I will make a hundred grand a month “100% on autopilot”!
That is, if I buy their “insider secrets” at the very affordable price of $49.90 — if I “act today”.
Aha, that sounds fantastic — less than $50 for a couple of “insider secrets” that will make me filthy rich ON AUTOPILOT!
Only way of achieving that I am aware of is to make my own money. And unfortunately, that is illegal.
This ridiculously inflated sales hype is characteristic of the more shady kind of make money online stuff. It is aimed at desperate people who have no idea how to make money using the Internet, but have a vague dream of doing it.
Now, I happen to know that this particular $49.90 product has a rather significant refund rate. You see, this is an ebook and it comes with a 60 day money back guarantee. And the payment processor (Clickbank) provides public data about every product they handle. Accessing that data, I can see that lots of customers have had such a low opinion of this particular ebook that they have asked for a refund. And what else could you expect from the B.S. impression gathered from the sales page.
In summary: there are gazillions of people out there trying to tell you what terrific business opportunities you’ve got by using the Web. But beware of those over-hyped products which are basically just full of hot air! But you can find useful and legit information too, if you just know how to find it. Now I invite you to step over to my site, dBusinessOpportunity.com, to learn more. I have seen many of these products — the good, the bad and the ugly.
