Discover the Guaranteed Way to Differentiate Yourself and Determine Success or Failure with Internet Attraction Marketing

Be honest with yourself, are you a “Newbie” or a “Smart Beginner?”

Some would call you a “Newbie.” Maybe that is how you’ve referred to yourself.

You have never experienced making money online and no internet marketing (or much business) experience whatsoever.

This is where almost all of us start…

And even the concept of attraction marketing is exactly that, just a concept…

In all honestly, what you probably know most is that you have an urge like gravity to sink yourself into the booming internet economy, and flex your entrepreneurial spirit so you can live a better life, and achieve financial freedom.

Sound familiar?

If so, keep reading, an important point is to be made here.

If you mess up here, you will fail before you even begin a successful and profitable internet attraction marketing venture.

It can be hard for someone to locate an ideal starting point when beginning from scratch.

But let me offer you this very important, yet subtle difference between those that reach success, and those that never do. This is the difference between being a “newbie” and a “smart beginner.”

But first, realize that every successful person has had to start from scratch. Every successful business person has had to start the long journey at the foot of their mountain of dreams.

This starting from scratch is often referred to as being a “newbie.” That’s what we call these start-from-scratchers.

It refers to someone who is absolutely new, and doesn’t know much about anything with regard to marketing their brand, their company or their products on the internet.

But More and More, There is a Subtle yet Profound Difference Between What Would Normally Be Called a “Newbie” and What is Now Being Coined, “SMART BEGINNER”

Eric, when you wrote:
“It can be hard for someone to locate an ideal starting point when beginning from scratch.” no truer words were spoken.

Unfortunately, many people just launch themselves without a plan, without educating themselves and then sit back wondering why they don’t succeed.

Fortunately, those that belong to the Renegade Professional community, don’t have to worry about that. Planning and education are the critical first steps being taught that can lead anyone who has the desire to learn and apply what is learned, an undeniably successful online marketer.

Eric,
This is such a great article. As I talk to more and more people I find that many are and always will continue to search for the next best and greatest thing. I did when I first started then I realized, I have it all here at Renegade Professional, all I needed to do is work smarter not harder and implement my education that was in front of me.

We all need a plan, a business plan, ever changing but always having the same goal in mind. Being a true entrepreneur is having that plan so that we can be proactive in our businesses and not reactive.

“Newbies” will always be reactive, till they figure it out and become smart entrepreneurs.

This article has been a great reminder. I tried some other “great” educational material I found on the Internet, promising faster success. All I actually found was frustration, overwhelm and myself spinning around in circles, trying to learn this new, “better than ever” program.

Renegade Professional has and has always had all the resources I need to have a marketing system set up and running. Newbie or Smart Beginner? Now, because of trial and error, I am and will continue to be a Smart Beginner, with plenty of stick-to-it-ive-ness.

It’s human nature to want thing to happen quickly when we get into our first home business. Most people need the extra money, and buy into the hype of over night success.
It doesn’t happen for most people, so the only true success comes from never giving up, and accepting from the beginning you must learn what it take to become success in what ever business you want to get in.

Eric,
So many times the teachings in the marketplace don’t even touch on the “smart beginner”.

You mention in your article that is “linked” at the bottom of this article – a smart beginner (even when we have started again) decides what “value” we can give and finds “skills” to develop that will help to grow their business (among many other things). One of the things that attracted me to Renegade Professional was the “how to” do marketing, which other programs lacked.

Thanks, Eric, for reminding us of these ideas.

Eric,

Once again a worth while article to read. For me it was a re-awakening, remembering that I am a ’smart beginner’ and no longer a newbie.
I’ve read all the othes’ comments and the value there is evident as well.

I think it is easy sometimes to lose sight of what’s important for our success and to focus on what will postpone the success we all desire so much.

Thanks again..I needed it!

Eric, Eric, That’s really right on. A smart beginner can see the journey of learning, growing, giving to be just as valuable as their anticipated success.

A smart beginner can apply all those lessons to any endeavor and expect to be successful. Where as a newbie on the fast track may rise quickly and fall harder with no expectations of longevity.

Thought-provoking, Eric … and excellent linked article.

Good distinction between Newbie and Smart Beginner.

One thing I kept thinking about are all the people who don’t associate themselves with a beginner label because they’ve been working at it for a long time.

I’m thinking these are the ‘born again’ or ‘converts’?

I’m actually a “re-Renegade” myself. I found the Renegade system, played with it a while, dropped it and went wandering around in the desert, as it were, until I finally found … Renegade.

The longer you’ve been doing something a certain way, the harder it is to start over. The same is true of online marketing, especially with all the options out there – once you’ve picked a ’system’ you want to ‘work it’ and give it a chance.

I’m happy to be a Renegade, or re-Renegade; the concept of Smart Beginner is not one that is discussed too much outside this, and related communities.

Wow. You’ve summed it up beautifully.

The ‘newbie’ term tends to have a negative connotation. You’ve just created an alternative that is much more attractive and descriptive of what it will take to persevere through the early stages of learning internet marketing!

You’re absolutely right, Eric. The smart beginner starts at the same place everyone else does. It is possible to become noticed when there is consistent focus in the learning process and applying the lessons. A smart beginner quickly becomes a leader when they in learn offer to teach others what they are learning–extending value to their teams.
