Last night I received an email from a person with a business proposition. He is appreantly a middleman who have got a client who has around 400 domains and he wants to monetize them. This gentleman wanted me to take up the project for a 50% revenue share of what he would get which is approx $2000. Working on 400 domains for $2000 ??? Well, there is more to it…. the funny\/sad part follows this…<\/p>\n
He wanted me to send him
a) The BEST SEO-Experts Portfolio
b) One 3 page real-life advise with specific examples on how to make money from Adsense
c) Few of your great innovative ideas on how to make money in Internet<\/p>\n
I wasn’t sure if he is oversmart or is he a newbie who is not sure of what he is asking for . I sent him a mail as below… And his reply was just a one liner<\/p>\n =============<\/span> So, someone with whom I am speaking for the first time expects me to send<\/p>\n b) One 3 page real-life advise with specific examples on how to make money from Adsense FREE OF COST<\/strong>…. without even knowing the project or the person. Am I a fool or am I dying for a job ?<\/p>\n Also on a few minutes chat on Gtalk he asked for the same information and when I informed I provide these services only for a payment he told me there are 1000s of SEOs in India who do this for free and that was the end of it. I asked him to find one that is gullible to this offer and excuse me.<\/p>\n This guy would probably not ask a tax consultant or a lawyer or a doctor to provide free advice for a week before he is satisfied and starts paying him for his advices in future, would he ?<\/p>\n If people can pay for all other professional services why would they have to make such ridiculous demands when they need service from some Internet marketing professional ?<\/p>\n This reminds me a of a similar post that I read a few months back at Lee’s Blog<\/a><\/p>\n When will people understand that Internet marketing is a specialised services and SEO \/ SEM professionals are actually “PROFESSIONALS” and the services we provide do require payment ??<\/p>\n
============<\/span>
