I guess you're right in that if you can't afford it, don't buy it. Could be that if can gain something from you're ebook, maybe I'll make make enough money to buy the BLOG MASTERMIND. You seem to be pretty sold on it I emailed Steve last week, but since he's in Taiwan, I'll ask you. What I said to Steve was, as a senior citizen who is still working I am looking for something whereby when I do hang it up, 2,3, or whatever years, I can make a seamless transition. My background is sales & marketing. Like many others, there is no pension and no investments, maybe lucky there given the current state of affairs. I will buy your ebook for that price, I can't go wrong. However if you have a thought, it would be appreciated. I have been knocking around the many websites for a while now and somehow your's seems to be trustworthy. Thanks. Bill Slateritz Joe,

I will buy your ebook for that price, I can’t go wrong. However if you have a thought, it would be appreciated. I have been knocking around the many websites for a while now and somehow your’s seems to be

When we first joined Blog Mastermind, Yaro was selling it as a monthly subscription you could cancel at any time. We haven't explored the second part of his offering, so don't know what you get for that additional $500. When he changed his business model to a one-time purchase, I'm sure it alienated a lot of potential buyers. However, we still believe his information is first rate and well worth the price. Those that can't afford it shouldn't buy it. It's that simple. To your other point about that site containing all the things we say to stay away from. That's a good observation, too. Scammers and legitimate businesspeople alike use the same tactics because they work. We use them ourselves in the sales page about our ebook. We don't do it very well, though. Yaro also addressed criticism about the long sales page <a href="http://www.entrepreneurs-journey.com/851/why-hate-long-sales-pages/" rel="nofollow">in this post on his blog</a>. When we first started this blog, we were looking mainly at sites claiming to offer jobs. So those stern warnings about sales tactics hold true in that context: If you run across those tactics you're being sold something, not applying for a job. That's absolutely true. What we have not done well is soften our criticism of those tactics and show when and how they are put to legitimate use. The Blog Mastermind sales page is a good example of legitimate use, in my view. Your thoughts? Another good point, Bill.

While your review says it's an easy to understand way to get something going on the net, I went to the bottom to find out the cost, $4 friggin 97.00 for the first course and $997.00 for the package!!! Yikes. The website has all the things on it you say to stay away from, the bank statement, the car, the house, etc. all the scams I've come across has the same thing. It seems to me you've created a creditability gap. While this is not a "job" the cost is way over the head for the average joe, excuse the pun, when all over your site says don't pay for a job. It is kind of contradictory, isn't it. Comment please. Bill Slateritz wslateritz@yahoo.com I’m disappointed in your recommending Blog Mastermind for newbies
