TOP 5 “KILLER” REASONS WHY INTERNET MARKETERS FAIL ONLINE! ( Part 3 of 5 )

In my humble opinion, the third reason why so many internet marketers fail online is the apparent Lack of “Focus” & “Direction”.

We all know that the internet community is one the most dynamic entities today with thousands of new websites and blogs sprouting up every minute.

Every time you log on the internet, there’s something new, everywhere you surf, you will be will be “Bombarded” with new money making programs that have sprouted up like weeds on grass fields.

And if you are a beginner internet marketer, chances are you will probably be easily distracted by these external influences.

I’ll illustrate by a simple scenario that most internet newbies go through including me when I first started out.

Just imagine that you have decided to start your internet marketing venture after hearing all about the “Hype” stating that internet marketing is the easiest opportunity to become an online “Millionaire”.

Most people begin their internet marketing journey by surfing the internet looking for a “Profitable” business opportunity that can possibly bring them “Instant Riches”.

Perhaps after scourging through the internet, they decided that Opportunity A seems to more viable and should be the best choice for them.

After a bit of “Brainstorming”, they soon run out of ideas on how to continue and return to surfing the internet for more ideas and leads.

While surfing, they “Accidentally” came across another opportunity, let’s call it Opportunity B that seems more “Profitable” or takes up less time and effort with better returns.

Most have the tendency to abandon their original opportunity and choose the newer one without giving it a second thought and this cycle will most probably continue indefinitely because of the apparent lack of focus and direction.

This vicious cycle of looking for a better and easier way to succeed online is one of the most dangerous traits of all beginner internet marketers.

Some internet marketers called this the “Bright Shining Object” Syndrome.

Recall the good old camping trips where you were attracted to those bright shining fireflies glowing in the dark, attracting us towards them, but never seemingly able to catch them no matter how hard we try.

It’s analogous to internet newbies being drawn to bright shining money making programs in the vast internet sea of darkness.

In the beginning stages, the level of commitment towards their new found niche opportunity may not be very high as results are not apparent yet.

It is best in my opinion, to get “Mentorship” from established internet marketing Gurus or start a “Mastermind Group” among peers where internet newbies can share ideas and push each along in their pursuit of internet marketing success.

This will greatly reduce the risk of sidetracking where most end up doing a lot of unnecessary stuff that are not useful to their internet marketing agenda.
