- Internet Marketing vs Golf
Recently I met Iain Erskine who is a PGA Golf
Professional. He sent me this article comparing
the teaching techniques of teaching golf and teaching
Internet Marketing. There are great parallels
here that I think you will enjoy. Here is
Iain's techniques.
"I have several online businesses which run nicely
and the last few years I have taken to teaching IM. I
am a PGA qualified golf professional and got into IM
after injury and a successful offline business. I
still teach golf at least one day a week and find the
comparison between golfers and Internet
marketers amazing. If I can explain a little what I
mean I would then be greatful of your thoughts. This
may help people new to IM.
A new golfer will come to me having read every
magazine going, watched XYZ DVD and bought new clubs
and putters on a regular basis.
They will then proceed to ask me to teach them to hit
the ball straighter and longer in a 40 minute lesson.
I watch them hit a few balls and they go everywhere,
at which time I observe, the grip is poor, their aim
is all over the place, the ball is in the wrong
position with regard to their feet, their posture is
crooked.
I explain that without these basic set up
fundamentals they will never hit the ball straight
and certainly not in a week, but they insist on
talking swing planes and ball flights and winning
the competition next weekend.
I put them on a six week course where we agree - no
magazines, no DVD's, no comparisons to Tiger. Set
practice on one aspect of the SET UP each week, and
only when mastered do we move on. Week One AIM, Week
Two GRIP, etc.
We do not however move on until the previous skill
has been mastered.
What happens? They start to look like a golfer, the
technical thoughts become less. The swing
automaticaly improves because they can stand to the
ball correctly. They are set up like a golfer.
As they become more proficient I will ask them to
record results about the game and then target
specific areas. (Who stands at the driving range with
a driver in their hand when they can't putt). I will
ask them to focus on a shot they would like to hit,
to visualise it, then using their NEW SET UP we can
work together on making it happen.
For me the main problem, getting the focus narrowed,
too much information available and wanting instant
results . Article Headline example Shoot under 80 in
10 days - REALLY????????
Ok, so now Internet Marketing
A IM comes to me having read DJK, Affiliate X, black
mask, adsense for dummies and every other ebook. They
will have spent a fortune and earned nothing.
I ask them over a similar 40 minute session to think
about and detail exactly what they have done. Just
like the golfers variety of shots I get a variety of
projects - " I did some direct linking" , "I did some
affiliate stuff", "I tried Adsense but it all went
wrong", "I joined GDI but it didn't work for me"
So I explain that firstly (in my opinion) there is no
way to earn money in a couple of hours from scratch
with no experience.
I further explain that they are trying to move
into too many varied projects with no SET UP. I have
to move their focus from instant riches to long term
strategies, and skills
I will discuss what they enjoy and what appeals to
them about IM, we need a project they will enjoy. (I
personally cannot be doing with Adsense so it is
pointless me working on projects involving it because
it is not for me and I would lose motivation, just
like it is impossible to teach a golfer who sees
every shot right to left, to play the ball left to
right, you take him out of his learning zone.)
Once we have established a project idea, lets assume
they are going to write and sell their own ebook. We
break down the skills involved to make that project
successful. What SET UP is required.
A topic and research, Writing skills, A webpage
to sell it from (they have never done this) Payment
set up Keyword research for advertising Adwords
skills Other traffic driving
skills Autoresponder Follow up skills.
This is a brief set up to get the project off the
ground. I set them a similar programme, giving them
the knowledge (just as i tell the golfer how to aim
correctly) to go off and learn skill one
PROPERLY.
When they have mastered that they move on.
Within a few weeks (given a good work ethic) they
have set the project up for launch, and learned
skills that will never leave them.
Just like the golfer lowering his handicap steadily
they can now repeat the same process steadily,
improve their skills and be more successful.
A golfer needs to practice to get better, You do not
go from a 28 handicap to scratch in a matter of days,
weeks, even months. That practice needs to be focused
on the correct skills. As you learn those skills the
faster your improvement and the more shots you can
play. I am scratch because I repeat that process more
consistently than most.
In IM the same principles apply, you do not go from
zero to $10000 a month in a month. You need to take
time to learn the skills RELATED TO YOUR PROJECT.
Once you have the skills you practice and improve
them adding new ones along the way.
The promise of instant riches is false just like the
golf headline break 80 in 10 days - Earn $500,000 and
be free in 10 minutes just does not work.
IM is about building a SUSTAINABLE INCOME FOR YEARS
to do that just like the golfer you need a good solid
set up. You need to learn numerous skills. You need
to know exactly what you are trying to achieve and
you PRACTICE to get better. Once you are better it
stays for life. I have been a scratch golfer for
20 years plus because I learned the basic skills and
they don't just leave you.
The successful guys in IM will be scratch at IM for
years to come.
So to summarize
Identify your faults if you have started in IM
Work on a set up for the project
Break that setup down into individual skills and work
on each one individually. Don't move on until you
have got it, if you are struggling ask for help. (The
Turbo Membership Forum is a great place)
Once you have the set up in place - practice to
improve it
Think Long Term instead of I want x dollars by next
week
I find that it is too easy to give throw away advice.
I used to say to my golf pupils your " you are not
standing square to the ball" not understanding that
they had no idea what I meant as they did not get
golf terminology, so I just left them more confused.
When offering a tip, it pays to be clear and keep it
simple, telling someone to build a squeeze page when
they have no idea what one is or how to use any web
software is no help at all.
I hope this post provides food for thought. I
am looking to learn more about how the real top guys
get their methods across so i can further enhance my
teaching and my pupils study.
Regards Iain"
Interesting similarities in both games for you to
study. Thanks for sharing Iain

When I received the information from John Delavera
relating to The 888 Code, I sat down and did my own
analysis of the content. I have taken most of the
questions in the code and commented on them.
Some of the questions and answers are
self-explanatory and need no further comment. I
have listed each question highlited and my comments
relating to the questions of The 888 Code. I
hope that this will share a little insight from
my experiences with John Delavera and his "Turbo"
logic. Take a look . I hope you
enjoy.

ADAMANTINE-Self Improvement - WINNERS vs LOSERS
Winners vs. Losers A winner is always part of the
answer. A loser is always part of the problem.
A winner always has a plan. A loser always has an
excuse.
A winner says: "Let me do it for you." A loser
says: "That is not my job."
A winner sees an answer for any problem. A loser
sees a problem for any answer.
A winner sees a green near every sand trap. A
loser sees two sand traps near every green.
A winner says: "It may be difficult but it's
possible." A loser says: "It may be possible but it's
too difficult." - Author Unknown

it. - Napoleon Hill
