How tos

I know I’m bored when I start reading yet another ‘how I make $10K a month blogging or digital marking or selling art online’ thing on Instagram or Pinterest

This occurred to me.

None of these people sell actual products. Unless you count their information. They are trying to sell a how to class.

Am I the only person who finds this weird and slightly hard to believe? Where are they finding all these people to buy a class or a webinar to learn how to do something they aren’t doing?

Is this a racket? I see a few people trying on clothes and getting a commission for clothes sold through their middle man site, but they are doing something unique, usually. Digital marketing for makeup or whatever. I’m not tech savvy, but I tend to research a product and buy it through the company site. Maybe that’s silly or slow or something…I’m happy for these young entrepreneurs even if I don’t all the way get it.

None that I see, are trying to sell a ‘how to’ program.

So what is this phenomenon? So far, I haven’t taken the full bait, I have watched a few compelling ads though.

But I can’t get those minutes back.
