I’ve got a hard drive full of shiny objects, so many so most are forgotten. It’s an easy lesson to say, and to hear, but hard to fully implement. The folks writing copy for out industry are the best out there, and so many of us are desperate to make some quick money.

There are a lot of ways to make money online. The best strategy is to pick one and stick to it. Then at least you have a reason to not buy most of the stuff being offered.

Focusing on a given arena is clearly the answer. And no matter how hot an item may be, there will be another at least as hot tomorrow.

Would definitely have to agree with you Andre.

I too have a tendency to get caught up in the ‘moment’ and purchase something that I probably don’t need and will probably never use.

It really does need to be something that your will use right now and that will compliment your existing business.

It is far too easy to see that bright new shiny object and want to go for that and completely leave behind what you are already doing.

Thanks,

I think another great point to all new launches – you can evaluate their marketing strategy and since all big launches tout the results at the end – their effectiveness and implement it yourself when time comes

Great advice, unfortunatly sometimes tha sales letters are to enticing and we get caught up in the moment. I’ve done it to. Your point about buying something if you know it will benefit you now is key. Make sure you use what you purchase and don’t let it sit on your hard drive and be forgotten

Very good advice in this post. this bit needs to be followed: “If you buy it make sure you are going to use it.” I have found that there is just not enough time to use many things that I already have.

Great post, I especially like, if you buy it, make sure to use it.

The real good course that tell all, it’s all there infront your face, if you just read it and don’t use it, it won’t work, you have to take action and apply what you learn.

I like this part of your comment:

“You could then feel like you earned it.”

It’s a wise way of looking at future purchases.

Launches are great but you have given excellent advice about them. Always make sure it helps you NOW and take action when you buy it.

If you can’t do both skip it.

Great advice! I think many of us fall into the “trap” of shiny new things and want it right then and there, but forget to assess if it will really be beneficial to our business or not.
