Every day thousands of people turn their computers on for a new reason. They aren’t shopping or looking for a movie to see. No, this time they are searching for something new.
Something they’ve heard about but aren’t sure is real.
They can’t sleep from worrying over their bills. They see an ad on late night TV. You can make money On-Line?
They don’t really trust the slick talker in the commercial. They’ve heard about the Internet scams, but they wonder, could it work? The glimmer of a dream. A small hope grows.
So today they are looking for more. More time to spend with their family. More money for the bills. More freedom to do what they want when they want.
Now, in front of their computer screens they scratch their heads and think “Where do I look? Who can I ask?”
They type in “Make Money On-Line” and hit enter. And get thousands of results. What now? They click a few at random.
Confusion sets in fast, there are too many ways. Too many people clamoring for their attention. Which one should I pick?
They keep looking and find someone that says, “I can help.” They check it out, but can’t really connect with that person for some reason. They think. “If there’s one person out there maybe there are more that will help me.”
Now there are thousands of people out there looking for someone they can trust, someone to help them to build a business On-Line. Someone to connect with. Someone like them.
Someone like you.
That’s why I talked about the importance of being yourself in my last post. Why you need to be yourself in your articles and blog posts.
When you let the real you show through your words something magic starts to happen.
Some of these new people start to know you, start to like you, and begin to trust you.
Because for some of them you are the only person they can relate to that has put themselves out there on the front line for them to find.
Someone is searching for you.
Help them.

I love it! That is an awesome way to look at it. I was wondering where you were going with that last post. I was thinking in another direction, such as hype and B.S.!
Great job tying it in!
Have a wonderful evening!

Funny you should mention that Twila, I did have a different destination in mind when I started typing, I hit a fork in the path and went with it.
When someone’s posturing instead of being themselves their propects could think, “Huh, what a phoney.” and miss clicking with the right mentor.

PS- Wrong guess at the other direction I was going, I’m saving that for later

Hi Michael,
You know, you make a good point. I think people sometimes think they need to be so perfect with every article. Almost to the point that they seem robotic and leave out their personality.
People are looking for another human being to relate to and not something that seems like a computer generated message.
Have a blessed day!

Hi Melisa,
I’ll hit Google Blogsearch, find a post that sounds good. It should be good, it’s at the top of the search results, right?
Perfectly Keyword optimized but no flavor, no seasoning. White bread soaked in milk, blah.
My word, I found one blog with over 200 posts over about 18 months, with maybe 2 dozen comments, total. Got to wonder how they keep going with almost no interaction. Kudos for sticking to it, but if people aren’t paying attention to it al the SEO in the world won’t help.
Then I found a blog with some personality, not as much info but ,wow, what’s next? I”l go back because it’s iteresting, not just dry facts.
Thanks For The Visit,
Mike
