Internet Marketing Sins Review
By Jeffery Wood | November 5, 2009
Harsh. Brutal. Cold. Perfect.
Today I am reviewing Internet Marketing Sins by Sylvie Fortin.
Sylvie Fortin is a service provider for Internet Marketers. That’s right, she’s one of the people some of the big names use for outsourcing.
In Internet Marketing Sins she goes over some of the shameless and deceptive practices that some well known marketers have used.
Before I get too far let me make a few disclaimers. 1) She maintains that most Internet Marketers are upfront honest people. 2) She does not name those who use these practices.
Oh, and lest I forget, those of us who have contributed to the problem by falling for these tactics get talked to too. No one is safe, no one. Here’s an excerpt mentioning the topics she covers:
Sleight of Hand Continuity
Upsell Hell
Limited Time Offers
Hammerhead Marketing
Feast or Famine Marketers
Slave Owners
Arrogant Jerks
Piggy Back Marketers
Guru Bashers
Me Too Marketers
Teleseminar Idiots
Coaching Addicts
Time Sucking Vampires
Brainless Freebie Seekers
Lazy Ass Marketers
Consisting of two pdfs and a video she holds nothing back. So if you want to be an honest marketer, read this and don’t do (or stop doing) these things.
She covers what it is, how it works, what makes it deceptive, and why doing it a different way is better.
There is strong language in this so if that offends you…. I found it to be helpful (the contents, not the language)
I don’t know that it’ll be useful to do The Good, The Bad, and The Summary. So I’ll just add a few more thoughts:
It’s free, it’s big (yet was a quick read) and well worth the time. Get your copy of Internet Marketing Sins

P.S. Prepare to spend a while when it comes to the video part. It’s long, but good.

The truth can hurt. I’ve made mistakes too in the past, and like any person continue to do so. Those who don’t commit interet marketing sins are either not putting forth effort or are no longer internet marketing.
Many newbie internet marketers don’t know any better; that’s why I make it a point not to criticize them, or even the veterans, for that matter.
Any competitive tactic is coming from a place of fear so I can’t judge someone for being fearful.

I agree that many new people wouldn’t know any better.
I think it’s entirely possible to run your internet marketing without committing any of the listed “sins” (on purpose).
