If you're new to my subscription and wondering what is a "Sunday Email", it's an email full of my rants, personal tips and opinions on marketing especially in the "internet marketing" niche. Sometimes, opinions on life. Whatever it is... it'll give you value after spending time reading it.
You know-- sometimes my Sunday Emails can be harshed. Cuts through like a ninja's blade. But come on, they're my rants. If I want to keep everyone happy and write about the colorful rainbow, birds chirping, flowers blooming, etc then I should just opens up a nursery home and take care of children.
So if you can relate to what I wrote when reading it-- good because I know it had just served the purpose of helping people.
One more thing-- it'll offend marketers. I hope you're not the one.
Beware of ScammersYou think I'm kidding about scammers, don't you.
Scams and manipulations are getting worse because more and more people are getting desperate.
You've heard about Myspace.com, right?
You see, I wanted to signup for a MySpace.com account last week. I wanted to use the username "patric" but it's already taken at http://myspace.com/patric by someone living in New York.
So I've gone ahead to register for username "patricchan". I was surprise when MySpace.com system said that user is already taken! So out of curiosity I went to see who's
http://myspace.com/patricchan.
I was SHOCK!
It was "Patric Chan"!
But it wasn't me. There's an imposter that uses my name, picture, content, etc and claimed to be me, outright lying to people on the internet.
Since there's a possibility that the imposter is a subscriber of mine and will remove it after reading this Sunday Email, I've screen captured it below for you to see.

In "my" MySpace.com, there are product recommendations. For those who did not know that this is an imposter, they'll think it's recommended by me and got cheated.
I'm not sure-- but I think in certain countries, they can get sued or jailed for imposing to be someone else.
In my previous Sunday Email, I've mentioned about fake income screen shots. Don't you feel it's such a coincidence that many new products/websites suddenly seemed to have clickbank.com screen shot of sales made per day? Hmm. Seems like everyone with their dog is having nowadays.
If someone dares to fake a MySpace.com account, what else 'marketers' will not think of doing?
Because most 'fake' marketers realized that income screen shots of Paypal, Clickbank.com, Adsense or 1ShoppingCart.com income/sales works. So they copy the same strategy as those marketers who have real result or real income screen shots. But the fake marketers never have that kind of sales volume at all.
For instance, I've bought an ebook about blogging to make money online from a
'new' marketer. On its salesletter, it shows how much money he's making from Google Adsense and Clickbank affiliate sales. When I read the book, I was really wondering how he make that kind of income because the techniques taught in the ebook are nothing 'unique' or possible to earn that kind of money!
It's like... set up free blogs from www.blogger.com
Find keywords.
Post content.
Submit to social bookmarking sites.
Get tons of backlinks.
I find the information was nothing new but that's still ok. I mean, it's irrelevant whether they are new or not because what's important is whether they work or not. But come on-- make 5-figure income a month by doing this? Funny thing was, I can't find any of his blog's url as example in the book at all. So how do you tell he's teaching based on theories or experience? Private label are everywhere nowadays.
And most unauthentic marketers will write incredible profiles. Profiles that will blow your mind off because they're so incredible. However, how do you know that they're not overly sugar coated? This is a free country. They can write anything they like about themselves and there's nothing wrong about it.
Is this a war against scammers? No. Why would I want to go into a war with them because I've nothing to win or gain. I don't get any incentives. But I'm writing this because you're my valuable reader and I really hate to see you becoming a victim.
The point here is this-- Don't believe any income or sales screen shot image unless you know the marketer or have done your own research. You CAN believe they're real if it's from a trusted marketer because he'll be silly to pull such a fake stunt. If his false facts are revealed, there goes his internet marketing 'career'. So really, he won't be faking you out to make quick cash. But if it's a new guy on the block, he has nothing to lose by risking with a fake income shot. Who knows-- some will take the bite and he'll laugh his way to the bank.
Wait. There's a marketing lesson that I want to share... "Once bitten, twice shy". Like the blogging book I've bought-- I'm sure I won't buy any products from him again.
Focus On Giving ValueDo you know how much your info-product's worth?
The answer should be priceless because it's really hard to put a price tag to it. But assuming you can. Let's say you think that your product is worth $1,000. Then sell it for just 10% or less of its value positioned.
To make a sale,
focus on the worth of the value that you can give but don't offer it at the price that it's worth. Make sense?
It's like-- will customer give you $1 if they can get back $10? This isn't a complex science to me and bet you'll figure out the answer.
Like, I've bought Jo Han Mok's Million Dollar Network right away when he sold it at www.milliondollarpromos.com. It's sold out now and it's pretty obvious why. Basically, he was selling the rights to sell 7 of his products where you'll get to keep 100% sales profit. The value is priceless because I know by owning that license, I can make AT LEAST 10 times back the money I've paid to him in a month. One of the licenses includes getting private label material from 2,000 pages of his content.
Side note: Because the offer was too good to true, I've persuaded Jo Han to allow me to sell 15 more of the licenses when he stopped selling. I still got
2 licenses available if you're interested to grab it.

The value given worth easily hundreds of dollars but the investment to join is the price of dinner for two only. So it's a no brainer I can get close to 200 members to join before the price increase soon.
Mark Flournoy of ThinkRichSoftware.com wrote this testimonial as Chartered Member..."If you want a top internet marketer as your personal mentor you need to join The Chan Do Chartered Membership. That's what it's been like for me. Patric has shown me fast new ways to create income and streamline my business. I look forward to the coaching calls because I can check my plans, learn from others in the group and even have some fun.
Programs like this usually cost hundreds of dollars a month. I almost hate to share this information because I don't want competitors to know about him. He's that good."

How Do Get Into The Internet Marketing Niche?By means, being in the internet marketing niche means teaching others how to market on the internet. Then you can sub-niche yourself into teaching people how to get traffic, how to build a list, how to write a salesletter, how to become an affiliate marketer and the list goes on.
The first part is identifying your main strength and branding yourself on a certain internet marketing topic. Don't be a marketer teaching people how to get traffic. Plenty of them already existed. But teach people how to get traffic from a specific method. Maybe, it could be from eBay.com. Or Amazon.com. Or Myspace.com. Or whatever discovery you have.
Claim your authority in a market that has not been claimed yet.
Then build alliances with other internet marketers. This is the tough part but it's possible. I'm not here to teach you about building relationship or Joint Venture here because this is not my main expertise. Go to your local bookstore or Amazon.com to pick up books related to relationship-building. For joint venture lessons, just use Google.com to search for good resources. Unless you need recommendations, then let me know and I'll give you a few that I can think of.
If it's so easy, why most marketers still fail even after taking these 2 valuable pieces of advice?There are many reasons but here is the main one I see most of the time-- they expect everything to happen in a week. Real relationship is not build in a week. It takes time. Sometimes, it takes years. It's an 'investment'.
Relationship cannot be rushed.
Relationship has to be build naturally.
Relationship is build when there's a bond of trust.
I mean, I'm sure you don't go and meet people and say, "Let's be friends" or "I want to be your friend." It happens naturally, right?
If you have been reading the "Sunday Email" series, I'll always ask for your favor to leave a Comment if you find value of what you've read. It'll be most appreciated because I read all of them personally. (smile)
You "Chan" Do It!
