I’ve said it before and I will say it again; when you want to learn how to do something right you have to learn from someone who has actually done it before, someone who is an expert in the field.

I see too often that some internet marketing beginners start “following” and learning from other beginners, other online marketers who don’t have the experience to really understand and teach what they are saying they are an expert in.

Some people call this “fake it till you make it”, and that’s a very dangerous thing to do. Not only can you be hurting those people who are trying to learn from you, but you can be hurting your long term success.

My point is that we all need to learn from the true experts, the people who have been around longer than us and/or who have at least studied in the specific areas where we haven’t. This is not to say that every “old timer” is worthy of learning from, but the chances are good that they know a lot more than a beginner does.

One true internet marketing expert who has built herself a very nice online business would be Liz Tomey. I’ve been following her for several years now and I am amazed at how much great content and the many products she is able to release on a regular basis. I’ll tell you right now, she is no fake, she knows exactly what has to be done to build a long term successful online business.

If you have not yet started following her, it’s time to do so. The first place to go would be her blog, and while you are there make sure to grab your copy of her free unreleased online workshops.
