Three main groups of 'netpreneurs visit the Forums
the Wannabees - the Strugglers - the Successful ones
Wannabees - some are looking for a business idea, some have an
idea, but most just have no clue where to start.
They all seem to think it should be free... no money, no work
and minimal time invested, while they just enjoy the good life.
You know, like draging themselves away from the beach and their
pina colladas long enough to turn on the computer to check on
tons of automatic sales being made. This stage usually does not
last very long!
Strugglers - after dealing with hype and broken promises,
they're still yearning and trying to make it. They now know it
is not free and are investing themselves, their time & as much
money as they can in promotions to get their traffic.
They post to learn, to promote affiliate programs, & some times
to circulate the ebooks they write. They're actively in the
school of hard knocks but they are not giving it up. They're on
a difficult road right now, where only the most patient and
persistant will survive to see the journey goal.
How many may give up on a business promotion and move on to
another one without ever knowing how close they've been to
success? How many times can they do this before giving up
altogether? Can this be the real reason that 5% of the online
marketers get 95% of the internet income?
Successful - most have graduated from the school of hard knocks;
paid their dues. They're the serious entrepeneuers, the money
makers. But still remembering what it was like to get there,
they are trying to offer advice to those who ask all the forum
questions. They know the only dumb question is the one that was
never asked and have great patience.
They've learned that it is also good business to help others
because it is establishing their expertise and credibility. It
perpetuates their own business success with new contacts and
opens up the discussions. Opportunities surface as well.
They are the ones who really keep the forums alive and well.
Without them, it would not be a teaching-learning situation; It
would just be a community visitation center for chit-chat.
