“Genius without education, is like silver still in the mine”…Ben Franklin

A Business Coach or Business Mentor is an Internet Marketing Success necessity. Especially when doing Affiliate Marketing. In this oftentimes overwhelming giant Internet Marketing “thing” we are all part of, you will reach a point (and probably, the sooner the better) where you going to say to yourself. Damn, I’m lost. I need help. What do I do now? WHO can I turn to for advice?… A real Mentor, and Business Coach! “Of the Small Businesses that fail, over 90% do so because of a lack of skills and knowledge on the part of the owner” …Dunn and Bradstreet Lack of skills and lack of knowledge on the part of the owner! Believe this, no one can learn all the skills needed there is to learn on their own about successful Internet Marketing, including you and me. There are just too many critical areas to master. We all need a trusted friend and confidante to guide us in “the big picture”, following the right path to success. How many times have your seen something like this “I read this book that changed my life! You can buy it here…” Uh Huh. Right. Every Newbie and every Success Driven Internet Marketing Entrepreneur needs some level of Mentor Training or Mentoring Program to guide them in at least several specific areas. A Business Coach or a Business Mentor should be used for each element of your overall Business Plan. The reason I say several, even the Big Name Gurus don’t know everything about everything. They share whatever their area of expertise, (insider secrets) are with other Gurus. A sort of Business Coach to the Gurus, if you will. Cumulatively they create A Force of Marketing Power and knowledge that is unequaled. You need to tap into that kind of power to be become wildly successful. “Strong enough alone, you are not” …yoda There are many wannabe mentors that try to take advantage of their “one hit wonder” projects that made them (or someone else) money fast, (plagiarism runs amok in the web), then they try to sell you a “How I Did It” software for $7- $197, it may have worked for them once but…this is not a Mentoring Program! These are not the Business Mentors you want to learn from. “Quality results only come from trusted, quality resources”…yoda The real Business Mentor or Business Coach that you need to learn from, is a highly experienced professional businessman, an authority that’s “been there done that, time and time again” a real Guru willing to prove it. A real successful million+ dollar a year Guru that is willing to share their timely insider secrets, wisdom, solutions and methods to help you evolve to authority status. They will become your friend and confidante, your Mentor, your Business Coach. Think about this for a minute. Did your high school football team have a Coach? Would there even be a team without a Coach? Would you start a new auto dealership without advice from the manufacturer on how to sell and service your product? Does the President of the United States make all those decisions without Advisors ? Did your daughter learn to play the piano without a piano teacher? This same principle applies to your Small Business Plan! “I have not failed, I have just found 10,000 ways that don’t work”…Ben Franklin But, there are many, many “good ones” experienced in Internet Marketing. The “good ones” all seem to have one thing in common; they are humble, sincere, regular people that are willing to help. Oh yeah, did I mention very, very rich, and you know what, they were all Newbies when they started. They have some truly amazing rags to riches stories that you will be able to relate to. I think they all like to tell how they used to be paupers! Fun Note: Did you know Benjamin Franklin is considered by many to be the “the First American Guru”? His wisdom and “Success Quotes”, from over 200 years ago, still apply today. [Plus, I like his quotes, so bear with me Ed.] “They that will not be counseled, cannot be helped”….Ben Franklin..1759 But, who are these Online Business Mentors and Business Coaches, Gurus that you can TRUST and share their knowledge. Names such as; Andy Jenkins, Frank Kern, Ewen Chia, Mike Filsaime, John Reese, Marlin Sanders, Rich Schefren, Brad Callen, Shawn Casey, Jim Daniels and many, many more Top Gurus. These are the best of the best Internet Marketing Mentors and Business Coaches that offer successful Mentoring Programs, within their specialized areas for small business coaching for Internet Marketing. Real businessmen that will share their insider secrets with you. These are the Gurus that will take you by the hand and help make you very wealthy, from Newbie to Guru in your niche if you will. With their mentor program, and ongoing trusted, professional advice, you can succeed. Deciding on the best Mentor or Business Coach for your Marketing Plan is actually quite easy, research each Mentor, their are of expertise, what they offer, how they deliver it. “If a man empties his purse into his head, no one can take it away from him. An investment of knowledge always pays the best interest.” …Ben Franklin..1758
