The Irony of Information Overload
When it comes to Internet marketing, there are a number of woeful ironies. None is worse than the irony of informational overload.
Whenever someone asks for advice from seasoned Internet marketers, they will almost always get a reply that goes something like this “first, develop an information base through self-education; then, take action and continue to stay abreast with new developments.”
This is excellent advice, but unfortunately, many people fail in the self-education phase. They attempt to take in too much too fast – and are unable to analyze any of it well enough to actually put it into practice.
This is also apparent in non-IM niches. Many people who simply receive too many information products will often stop reading them altogether. Even though they could benefit greatly from the information, they have developed a negative connotation that prevents them from considering it.
This is important to keep in mind when attempting upsales or building a membership site. If your primary audience is people actually reading the products (not selling them), then you need to make sure that you don't include too much information or too many products. The end result will be ironic if you do: members will download everything available (which they already perceived to be too much) and then they'll unsubscribe because they simply have no use for more layers of information.
One way in which you can work around information overload is to offer “levels” of membership. This means that someone can cut the price of membership by simply receiving one ebook per month. Similarly, someone else, who has decided to resell your products, can increase his membership to receive 10 ebooks per month. This maximizes your revenue, prevents information overload – and subsequently decreases your rate of attrition.
Always keep the customer or subscriber in mind. If you're marketing to the wrong audience, you may end up dishing out a serious information overload to unsuspecting subscribers. The end result will be a major and unnecessary loss in revenues.

Here's how it started…
…People are fed up with the hype, fed up with the scams, fed up with information overload, and don't know where to turn or how to actually start their own business online. Does this sound like you?
You could always hire a consultant or coach, but quite often the upfront costs are kind of prohibitive.
So what's the simple solution?
Your Marketing Journal.
Your Marketing Journal is a unique twist to coaching and business consulting. You get a daily plan, developed by two internet marketing professionals, Terry Telford and Richard Butler. The blueprint is laid out in easy to follow daily actions. You simply follow the daily activity and your business builds right before your eyes.
But there's more to it than that. Each month, you get access to a group teleconference call where you can talk directly with Terry and Richard. You get their undivided attention and get all your questions answered on the spot. It's like having your own consultant and business coach in your back pocket.
