A must read
Almost didn’t send this out. The hype has been huge. Now with all that why I am sending this out? Yes I am talking about Mike Filsaime’s “The Death of Internet Marketing”.
There are basically 3 reasons – 2 why and one which has held me back.
First why I didn’t jump on this. Judging by the number of emails I received and the speed they came in at most people that promoted this were interested in the $1 that Mike will pay you for referring anyone that downloads this report. Not all but quite a few were.
Now I am all for making money but if you have been on this list for more than a few weeks you know that I don’t promote what I don’t use. Makes it easy for me to sleep at night. So just to make money would not get me to send this email. In fact that is why this is going out Monday instead of Saturday when I first got the report.
I am sure from reading the report that Mike will be using this list in the future and is getting excellent information through the survey he is running. The man has an agenda and that is fine we all do.
The above being said I did get the report and took the time to read it.
That is the reason for this email. It is a well reasoned look at marketing to marketers and why that is becoming self destructive to a point. How as everyone applies the same principles to their launches you get slammed with email like this past 6 weeks has been where almost every day there is a big launch.It is something that I have talked about in my seminars almost weekly.
Second, he brings some possible solutions to the forefront in the report. These are worth reading and considering for your business.
One more caveat.
This is a typical Mike Filsaime report and it has numerous typos and misuse of words like there and their. If this bothers you don’t bother with it.

No matter where you get it from do take the time to READ IT!

[...] The next reference is here. This article offers some criticism about Mike and his writing style and points out that Mike doesn’t take time to proofread his articles. Basically Mike Paetzold from what I can tell, gives Mike Filsaime a “Thumbs Down” review on his previous articles and especially “The Death of Internet Marketing”…. YET!! He titles his article “A Good Read” and provides an affiliate link for people to download the e-book which again, according to Mike Filsaime, he should be making $1.00 per download. Mike Paetzold says, “This is a typical Mike Filsaime report and it has numerous typos and misuse of words like there and their. If this bothers you don’t bother with it.” [...]
I think you have put words in my mouth. I explained earlier in my post why I hesitated to send anything on this but felt that despite the points you have cherry picked from my post that the information was worth getting.
I know from the email I get that some people don’t care for anything that has typos and write it off thus the warning. I also make sure that everyone understands exactly what they are doing and any renumeration that might be coming my way.
The information itself despite the presentation was worthwhile and thought provoking. Thus I felt I must reply despite my whole post being misconstrued by taking the pieces that support your argument.
[...] Here is an example – I posted on the 13th at my marketing blog about Mike Filsaime’s “The Death of Internet Marketing” report. Not unusual in and of itself. You can see the post here. [...]
