Sorry Will, you have never had to deal with the convoluted dynamics so your statements lack any credibility. Believe me, these are rather intelligent people you so cavalierly insult. Most have learned a great deal and have moved onto successful ventures.

A large majority of the new site owners fail miserably with Mark?s program, and yet go on to design rather successful ventures. The only thing I would agree with is that the licenses should be sold to people who know more about the industry. It really sucks to drop $10,000.00 in a license and find out you really need a book of business to make it work. Personally, I don?t think Mark will change to whom he sells licenses to, but I doubt you were being serious when you made that statement anyway

Speaking for myself, I did not spend that kind of money most did. I did not expect riches overnight. I was and remain realistic about this venture, and I realize most sites fail or make a minimal profit. I never stopped trying regardless of what Mark says. I worked with Greg on Google Analytics, changed my adverting campaigns constantly and made structural changes to the different levels of my site. I will continue on with a platform perhaps more appropriate for me. The best lesson we can learn is where we belong- we all have different levels of expertise. My concern was that too many people are failing , and I don?t believe you can lay he blame solely on them as you seem to do.

I did not leave because I was not making a profit- I left because I realized that after two years that it would be unlikely to ever make a profit. I guess you can say I was ?cutting my loses?.

Your use of the Face Palm images is eerily familiar with Mark?s btw. He uses the same exact images.
