Sorry to be vague but a friend is planning to set up what she calls an internet marketing business.
According to her it should be easy to earn £20,000 a year.
She has just forked out £2,500 on a training course!!
Has anyone come across this?
Does anyone do it?
ps anyone with the secret of how to make £20,000 part time, from home has my complete attention :j

If it was that easy we'd all be doing it

No it's not, you can get into it in a second. You don't need to do a course or be certified or anything, you just have to decided you want to be an internet marketer. There are no exams to take and no experience necessary.

All you need is the ability to tell people a pack of lies to get money out of them and you're off. You just find some information that is freely available on the web, then tell people this information will make them a fortune, all they have to do is pay you for it and they will make millions.

I take it you have been stung in the past by the scammers.

I can tell you completely free of charge, as an Internet Marketing Consultant - not all of the industry is based upon lies. I have spent over 3 years, reading free information and experimenting on my own websites to see what is true and what is false - with about 75% of the information you read on the web is simple bs. It is this hard work research that is done that allows me to charge what I charge. Unfortunately scammers out there try and charge the same without having completed the hard work.

To make £20,000 a year in internet marketing is not difficult, if you have experience and the course is absolutely not the way to go! For that sort of money I would be wanting one on one time with an experienced internet marketer for at least 2 weeks! I dont believe all of the hype the top internet marketers put out about earning x per hour and you should pay that for my time. Without naming names one of my employers sent me on one of these courses costing a fair amount more than £2500, and the guy was so stuck in his ways he should have been bankrupt!

Well I will hopefully have a chance to talk to my friend properly this week.
I'm interested to know what she is getting for her £2,500!

Don't go near that place, it's just a spiders trap to get unsuspecting passers by to buy their crap schemes.

They all post about massive earnings, then post their "schemes/ebooks" Special Offers board. Then all the regulars reply to say they have bought it and it is brilliant.

All long comes unsuspecting joe public, sees all these "marketing warriors" who make fortunes buying the schemes/ebooks, and thinks "Well if these guys are buying it, it must be good" and then part with their hard earned money for a pile of cr*p.

Of course, the "warriors" never really bought anything.

Well providing you don't spend any money theres a lot of information there. Many of the eBooks in the special offer section can often be downloaded free here http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackhat-seo/f29-member-downloads/ or here http://forum.iranjava.net/sharing-point/ although you'll need to register to those sites to actually see the posts.

Some of the eBooks are quite good, obviously if you don't pay you haven't lost anything anyway!
