Lamborghini or AMC Rambler?
Which of those is Your Internet Marketing Vehicle?
Whether you are going to work, taking a walk, surfing the internet, you need a way to get from point A to point B. The way you do that could be termed your ‘vehicle’, which you use to move you between those two points.
Internet Marketing is no exception. You need a vehicle to get you from newbie to experienced. That vehicle is Knowledge. How you acquire that knowledge is based on how you learn things.
If you are a newbie, more than likely you are using the AMC Rambler (remember those?) and if you are seasoned, you may be on your way to using a Lamborghini. Whatever you are using, you had to learn how to do it somewhere along the line.
Maybe you learn the fastest by reading, or it could be by watching videos, or maybe it’s listening to an audio recording or teleseminar, whatever the method is, you will need to use it to get the knowledge that you need to make yourself successful in the IM business.
For all of the methods I mentioned above, you can find any number of different sources for them scattered all over the web. A good place to start would be giveaway events (here’s where I input a shameless plug for the Halloween Giveaway) where you can find ebooks, videos and software on Internet Marketing and many other subjects.
You can also try ‘ebook stores’. These sites have large selections of electronic books (ebooks), most in pdf format. Check out my ebook store here.
In order to read these these books, you will need a pdf reader installed on your computer and also some sort of zip program. Windows XP and Windows Vista come with a zip program built in, but if you need one, you can find one here. If you need a pdf reader, you can find that here.
If your preferred method of learning is videos, you can find a plethora of sources for those also, even the giveaway events will have some videos available for you. One of the better ways to get started with Internet Marketing is using PLR material. My friends Doug and Teri Champigny have a great set of videos teaching you how to use PLR to jumpstart your IM business. You can find those videos here.
The great thing about videos is that if you have a hard time grasping a concept that is being presented, you can rewind the video over and over again. This is good because if you are trying to learn something and it just isn’t working, you pause the video, do whatever you are trying to do, if it doesn’t work, rewind, relearn, and reapply, until you get it right!
Audio–maybe you learn the quickest by listening to live or recorded information. There are several membership sites that offer audio recordings of their past teleseminars.
A teleseminar is a ‘meeting place’, if you will, where people call into a telephone number and the moderator of the meeting talks about the specific subject that is being covered that day. Some of the live teleseminars are interactive, some are not, depends on how the moderator wants to handle that. Audio recordings are great resources for learning concepts also for the same reason that videos are. If the moderator or the participants are talking about something that you don’t quite get, or a specific website is mentioned, you just rewind and relisten.
I use audio and video quite extensively when I am in learning mode, mainly because of the above reasons. If I read something and then try it, and it doesn’t work, it’s difficult to understand WHY it didn’t work. Whereas with video, you can actually follow along, make your changes, and if it doesn’t work, you can go back and find out why it didn’t.
Next time I will cover the Application part of my system. If you would like notification of that post, please sign up for my updates (there are a couple of great freebies on the backend after signup, hint, hint) in the upper right hand corner of the page. I strongly suggest you sign up because readers of my newsletter will receive more indepth information on K.A.R. that I won’t be sharing with casual readers of the blog.

Hey Ron,
As they say, “Knowledge is Power!” It’s important to always, always be learning. That’s what’s so great about an Internet Marketing business, there are so many people who are willing to teach you new things to help you succeed.
My favorite method of learning is video, for exactly the reason you suggested, I can pause, try out the skill learned, then resume the video when I get it done.
Thanks for the Great Info!
