People lie. It’s a fact of life. Deal with it. Marketers lie, gurus lie, many folks who are into making money online lie. They do so for a variety of reasons. Some do it because they want to make you think that it’s easy to make money online so that they can sell you something. However,Others do it to discourage you so that you don’t end up competing with them. Honestly, I am guilty of some of it myself. That's just the way this market works today. I don't lie, but it is part of my business as well to use verbiage that entices people to click. Well, in this article I’m going to reveal the 4 biggest lies about making money online.

People don't always say the truth. That's the truth, so face it and digest it, that isn't much you can do about it. In the world of Internet Marketing, this happens even more often. Almost every sales page out there has some amount of hype and verbiage bordering on, if not direcly stating lies. Why do they do it? Well, you really should know that by now, they want you to buy their product. Even if they offer a money back guarantee, they know that there is a very very small chance that you will go back to them and ask for your money back. When you enter this field of Internet Marketing, you ought to know what these lies and avoid anyone stating anything like that like a plague!

The number 1 lie is that it is easy. IT IS NOT. They tell you this only to entice you into buying. You can believe what I am saying or try the next five Internet Marketing Strategy products and see hardly any results that are even close to what the gurus promise and then know for yourself. The truth is, making money online is one of the hardest things you’ll ever do. You’re used to your 9 to 5 job and that’s all you’ve ever known. This is a whole new world and because of that, it’s not easy. There is a big learning curve. Don’t forget that.

The second lie is that making money online is fast. Offline businesses typically take years to make a profit. So why would it be so different online? It’s not. Yes, it’s a little easier because there isn’t as much overhead, but it’s still something that is going to take a lot of time. Moreover, there is often more competition online owing to the smaller barrier to entry to compensate and thus making the same amount of profits just as hard. The gurus say you can do it quickly because again, they want your money.

The third lie is that you don't need to know anything to make money online. This one is the FARTHEST from the truth. You do need to know a lot. The lesser you know, the more time it is going to take you to get NOTHING something that can make you millions knowing nothing. May be the gurus are really trying to say that you can learn quickly. But there again, you need to have the aptitude to learn quickly. So even that is not nothing. Whichever way you look at it, you are going to have to know or learn quickly to succeed. Another option is to hire people to do it for you, but you have got to have deep pockets for that and get lucky with your vendors because if you don't know what you are doing, they are likely to take you for a ride as well. This market is tough. Not nearly as easy as they say.

The fourth big lie is that you can make money online without any kind of a plan. That’s right. All you need to do it make a website and watch your bank account. Again, a huge lie. I personally have seen several people fail. So, it does not happen automatically. You need a plan. You need to decide what business you’re going to get into. You need to decide how many hours a day you’ll work at it, how much you plan to spend on advertising, how much you hope to earn yearly, and so on. Everything must be planned out or you’re looking for trouble.

These are the 4 biggest lies that they’ll tell you, all because they want your money.

Don’t forget them.
