EPISODE TRANSCRIPT
If you've been approached by somebody who wants to charge you a lot of money to put you through ECommerce training or coaching, close your eyes immediately.
Looking too closely at that 99% of Google and YouTube fake training Gorgons will turn you to stone, just like in Greek mythology.
Then run the other way, preferably with your eyes still closed. You can't be too careful. You might catch a reflection in a mirror on your way out of the room.
You can tell who the bad guys are by the words they use, the questions they ask and the promises they make.
Here's a list of the seven worst red flags in fake Ecommerce coaching.
#1. If buzzwords like easy, wealthy, amazing, secret, etc, etc, are part of their name or presentation, run away. Those marketing buzzwords are purposely used to fool you, and anybody who's willing to fool you is not your friend.
#2. If they attempt to ask you anything, and I mean ANYTHING about how much money you earn, money you owe, how much savings you have available, or anything about your credit score and credit cards, run away.
That's called pre qualification. They're trying to figure out how much money they can squeeze from you.
#3. If they tell you it's okay to spend lots of money on their stuff because you'll earn it back quickly, run away. That's a lie. Nothing in any kind of business happens quickly.
#4. If they show you images of bank statements of people who have supposedly made money with them, run away. That's a sure sign of hack marketing tactics. Photoshop can simulate the appearance of real money, but it isn't real money.
#5. If they show you testimonials from people who talk about having made specific amounts of money or claim to have made money quickly, run away. That's a marketing gimmick and a lie.
#6. If they show you websites that are supposedly owned by people who have made lots of money with them, run away. They're fake. People who actually make money with their websites will NEVER show them to you. Websites and other online businesses are too easy to copy, and nobody real wants instant competition.
#7. If they tell you they're going to connect you with their manager to talk further, run away. That's sales code for "now we know you have money. We're going to bring in the closer and take it from you".
It's very important to understand that whenever you have these phone conversations with these people, you're talking to a sales floor. That same salesperson you're talking to will be selling ECommerce junk in the morning, selling real estate junk in the afternoon, and forex trading junk in the evening.
They don't care. They sell whatever they're told to for as much as they can get.
They'll even sell the exact same thing to one person for $2,500 and to another for $25,000, depending on how much money they determined those people have during pre qualification.
It doesn't matter to the salesperson or the coaching or training company. It's all junk that cost them nothing anyway.
Real EBiz educators and mentors are exceedingly rare, and every time you talk to somebody who claims to be, there's a 99% chance that they are not.
How do I know that? Because I AM a real ECommerce Educator and Mentor. I've been making money in this business for over 30 years. Only a handful of people can say that.
