So many people out there are looking for the “magic bullet,” the “hidden secret” that will let them achieve the success that top Internet marketers enjoy.
The simple fact is, the “secrets” are there, for everyone to see, if you know where to look.
Listen to any of the most successful marketers for more than 5 minutes and you’ll find the secret quickly: They recognize Internet marketing is a business and they approach it as any good business person would.
They may jump out of airplanes, play video games, strum a lap guitar, film themselves on ski slopes or beaches–that’s the “hook.” But right after that comes the “pivot,” the serious information about how to succeed in this business. And you can bet that, while they enjoy thoroughly the fun from their Internet profits, they work hard. More importantly, they work SMART. As I heard Frank Kern say recently, “When it’s time to get funky, it’s time to get funky.”
These folks have some very important traits in common–and doing surveys is among those traits.
What are the “4 S’s” that distinguish successful Internet marketers?
Successful Internet marketers are
Schooled–They invest time, energy, and money in learning all aspects of their businesses.
Selective–They’re careful about where and how they invest their time and money.
Serious–They treat their businesses with the care and attention they deserve.
And they have
Systems in place–They recognize that systems and processes make it all work.
And one of the systems that they have in place is surveys. Most successful marketers use surveys in all phases of their businesses, to
- Find out what their customers want, so that they create those products;
- Find out how their customers like their products and services,
- Learn how to refine their products,
- Generate systematic evidence that their products work,
- Produce case studies and testimonials to support the systematic evidence,
- Generate referrals.
They recognize what many business people do not: That the days in which only the Fortune 500 companies could afford this kind of information are over. And if they want to succeed, they must put this information at their fingertips.
Stay tuned. We’re working on a product that will help put these systems to work for you in your business.

“Jeanne’s Really Been a Genius at Showing Me How Important Surveys Are.” "Jeanne's an amazing gal who truly is an exceptional, unique person who really understands the power of surveys. Surveys are just a different way to talk to people and ask them a little about what they're doing and why they want to do it with you. The more you know, the better you can serve people. Jeanne's really been a genius at helping me realize how important that is. She's helped me put a structure into place so when I'm on the Internet working with people I can find out what they really want so I can do a better job of giving them what they want. That's the key—but sometimes we think people want to do "this," and in actuality, they'd rather do it "this way." Whatever it is you're doing, whether it's finances or dating or relationships or just business on the Internet, and you want to find out how to do it better, Jeanne's programs are fantastic. Anything she does, I'm always dialed into. She's just a genius at taking what you're doing and making it better, so you can do it more effectively and you can reach the people you want to more effectively. If you get Jeanne's stuff, read it, be disciplined at it, it will transform your business, as it has mine."
