Everyone knows there's no shortage of pitfalls and traps when trying to sell online. We all make mistakes in Internet marketing and always will. In fact, you can't really achieve much on the Internet (or off the Internet) with business unless you do make mistakes and learn from them. However, there is one mistake that is especially tragic. Not just because it's easy to avoid, but because so many people -- good, talented people at that -- make this mistake and never even realize it. And that mistake is they quit too soon. They give up on a decent project for whatever reason, when massive success was just around the corner. This is no joke, either. I've seen this many times. I've talked to people who told me their Internet marketing horror stories. And there are so many times when people just plain give up way too soon. This is such a big problem that I heard a statistic stating 90% of marketing campaigns fail is not because people had the wrong plan. Its because they abandoned it too soon. They gave up too early and didn't give their ideas a decent chance. They thought it would happen faster than it did or got discouraged. When, in reality, if they'd just hung in there a few more months, weeks, days even hours (in some cases)...they would have made it, and made it big. |
