Let’s yap about goo-roo fanboys.<\/p>\n
They’re people who latch onto a goo-roo and ape everything that goo-roo does. They use the goo-roo’s emails verbatim. Never do anything outside accepted goo-roo orthodoxy. And, even worse, start selling info products based on what little they know (which is often skewed or outdated info) to OTHER hapless newbies who then follow suit — at which point they grant themselves goo-roo status.<\/p>\n
Frankly, I wouldn’t be shocked if they had their own “creed.”<\/p>\n
Even their own “commandments.”<\/p>\n
Something like…<\/p>\n
I \u00a0<\/strong>Thou shalt tell people to test but never test anything thyself<\/p>\n II<\/strong> Thou shalt spend thy time in marketing forums and avoid real work as much as humanly possible<\/p>\n III<\/strong> Thou shalt mindlessly<\/em> quote thy favorite goo-roo whenever thou art asked a question<\/p>\n IV<\/strong> Thou shalt shamelessly swipeth ALL thy ad copy<\/p>\n V<\/strong> Thou shalt never run an ad selling a money-making product without at least one phony photoshopped bank statement as “proof”<\/p>\n VI<\/strong> Thou shalt NOT blaspheme goo-roos by refusing to participate in their every product launch<\/p>\n VII<\/strong> Thou shalt only join lists that give away free info and rebuke<\/em> all those who dare sell thee anything (unless ’tis a goo-roo list, of course)<\/p>\n VIII<\/strong> Thou shalt inflate and exaggerate ALL claims<\/p>\n IX<\/strong> Thou shalt use the same form email all thy competition uses when promoting products to thy list<\/p>\n X<\/strong> Thou shalt honor the 50+ word headline and keep it holy<\/p>\n Hey, don’t scoff.<\/p>\n If you’ve met a goo-roo fanboy you KNOW I speakth the truth here.<\/p>\n Again, I’m not saying goo-roo fanboys are evil.<\/p>\n Amusing?<\/p>\n Yep.<\/p>\n Bad people?<\/p>\n Not usually<\/p>\n (Just misguided).<\/p>\n But I wouldn’t recommend listening to them.<\/p>\n Go here next:<\/p>\n
