Internet Marketing Forums are good for you

Thursday, June 21st, 2007

When I first got started on the internet marketing scene, one of the first places I got my information from was from Forums.

The amazing thing was that there were people online who were willing to help someone like me to get started, and to understand the lingo and jargon.

If you aren’t a member of any internet marketing forums yet, I encourage you to go and become a member immediately. It will literally change your life.

Earlier this year, I lauched my time management ebook and had a pretty poor conversion rate even though I thought my sales letter rocked. What was amazing was that I posted my message for help on one special forum that I paid to get access to, and there were many people who gave me a lot of advice, advice that would have cost me in the thousands of dollars, had I hired a copywriter to
change the sales letter, or even to provide a critique. Thats why the sales letter is now converting about 3-4% of people who opt in at my time management site, a huge improvement over the 0.3% it was doing prior to that.

Just recently, I joined another paid forum, the difference here that there are many Experts who are willing to share and to help with their time and information. Just looking through the posts there is mind-boggling.

For example, I was reading a post entitled “Create a $500 Per Day Business for Yourself” and the information there is absolutely amazing. Lots more posts like this one there.
