In my experience as a business coach, most entrepreneurs are creative people. Social media is really fun and creative. It’s also safe, because you don’t really have to interact with people in meaningful ways. People love the idea of having a big following that buys just because you are entertaining.

You know what isn’t fun and creative? Sales. Networking. Following up on emails. The things that actually get people to buy. I have tried and tried to get people to learn sales and cannot get much interest.

Instead, people want to learn how to make stuff. My most popular webinar is “Get started making helpful videos.”

You are the method.

They want to make more money by selling courses etc to others so if you see someone giving out info and it has like 2 mil views chances are they are giving Info so that they can selling you a course like giving you one piece of the puzzle and you have to pay for the other piece

Money

The financial market is one of the best markets, always growing and with a good starving crowd (everyone wants to be rich, right). That attracts lots of people, the problem is that the vast majority of them don’t really know what they are doing, they are just trying to get rich themselves, not necessarily wanting to add value to others.

I wouldn’t say they’re fake because they found value in sharing their knowledge. I think we all need to be weary of stranger danger

For views for sure.

Are they fake? No, but they are not doing any of the business by themselves. So they cannot provide you strategies that work for the businesses they are talking about.

Are they helpful. Maybe yes. Because whatever they are saying, a lot of people are making good grands from it.

But the trick is that you need to pick a business model and dig deep into it. Internet is changing so fast so you have to experiment with different strategies and find the one that works for you / your business.
