What most people don't realize, (and it's one of the main reasons that they are not successful with their business), is that they don't sell products and services. They sell themselves.
We live in a world where people are very skeptical of just about everything. Their general belief is that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. And because of this preconceived notion, it is very hard to sell a person anything.
However, there is a way to make the sales process easier.
How?
Question: I have had a website up and running now for over 4 months and through a combination of articles and forum posts have managed to get over a thousand unique visitors.

Okay I'm going to give it to you without any sugar coating...
Question: Simon how do you keep coming up with so many good product ideas?
As a marketer creating your own products, one of the hardest things to do is to come up with new product ideas, especially if you have already designed quite a few products. As you go along, coming up with these ideas get harder and harder.
This year I hit my 200th product release (These have included: software, memberships, physical books, ebooks, reports, videos and audios) and yes it does get harder, simply because at times it feels like you've covered just about everything there is to be done... I tell you if I added into that number the half finished and on hold ideas then you could probably double that number...
So what do you do?
