Simple Online Money Making Systems – Do They Actually Work?

Are you desperately searching for a simple online money making system?

If so, there’s no shortage of internet marketers looking to sell it to you.

But they’re not selling you something that actually works, they’re selling you a dream. The dream of push button riches and autopilot success.

In reality, these systems do not work. At least, not for you. The only thing they do, is line the pockets of the people running them.

In this article, I’ll explain what these ‘systems’ are about and why you should avoid them.

The “Simple Online Money Making System” Gimmick

A simple online money making system is anything promising you easy money for following a ‘few simple steps’. I’ve seen many of these systems over the years, and most are scams.

There are many different types of autopilot systems online. It seems each and every day there’s a new shiny object coming out.

But the way they work is almost always the same…

• Promise people amazing money for ‘following a few steps’
• Deliver something else entirely that does not work this way
• The next ‘shiny object’ comes out which seems like it could be ‘the one’
• Rinse repeat

In some cases, what you receive is a rehashed training program of some kind. In other cases, it’s a ‘bizop’ or an investment scheme of some kind.

It doesn’t really matter what it is, as long as people buy into it.

The ‘constant’ is that, rather than offering people genuine value, these systems give people what they want- a push button fantasy. They rarely, if ever, deliver on what they promise.

Why ‘Autopilot Systems’ Fail The Majority

You’ve heard the saying- if it sounds too good to be true it probably is. Well this is especially true within the online world. If making money online really was THAT simple, everyone would be rich. Plain and simple.

As I just explained, most of these systems fail people because they are just plain BS.

It’s not that it’s “hard” or “complicated” to make money online. Not at all.  But there is a considerable amount of learning and effort involved if you want to be successful. Which is something they all leave out of the sales pitch.

Assuming you find something that is at least in some way a reasonable system. There are still issues to consider. Such as the epic level of competition you will now face.

People who attempt to use a done for you system are competing with many other people who are all doing the exact same thing.

In other words, if there’s no skill involved in what you’re doing, anyone can come along and do the same thing. Which quickly waters down whatever method or system you are using.

The other problem with most of these systems, is you only get part of what you really need. So you might be able to do “x” relatively easily by following the system. But you’re missing the rest of the alphabet! Which means, at best, you are stuck running around in circles.

You simply don’t have the full picture. Oftentimes you won’t even know why something is working, or why it’s not working. Which matters if you want to fine tune your efforts.

Avoid The Never Ending Scam Cycle Once and For All

The main reason these BS systems exist, is because scammers are selling and people are buying. It doesn’t matter what industry you look at either. If there’s money to be made, someone, somewhere, will be there to capitalise.

So it’s a vicious cycle in this respect.

On one hand, if no one bought into these overhyped money making systems in the first place, no one would bother promoting them. On the other hand, it’s because of the deceptive marketing of crap like this, that people buy in the first place.

Whichever way you want to cut it, there’s a clear cut case of supply and demand here. People are ALWAYS going to be wanting quick and easy ways to make money. It’s human nature. Which means there are always going to be people selling the ‘solution’.

The Key Is To Educate Yourself and Build YOUR Business

Many people who look for these simple systems are really looking for a ‘shortcut’ to success. Ironically, the best ‘shortcut’ is to actually educate yourself on proper ways to build a business.

When you take the time to learn real internet marketing skills, you will be in a position to build a real online business. Which means you are not reliant on any one ‘system’ or marketing method.

You are building your business and your income for the longterm.

This is what I did to escape the vicious ‘shiny object’ syndrome I was stuck in years ago. And it’s what anyone who wants to succeed online does. At least anyone that I know of.

Systems come and go, and they are rarely effective. So what you really want to be doing is educating yourself on what works and build a longterm online business.

Not to say that you can’t leverage an existing system to some extent or that you can’t systemise your business. Not at all. But getting a firm handle on how online business works, at least the method you want to leverage, is the very foundation of your success.

Without educating yourself, no system and no amount of ‘systemising’ will help you.

Conclusion

It would be nice to just ‘plugin’ to an autopilot system and start making lots of money. Heck, even a bit of money for doing almost nothing is desirable.

But the truth is, these systems rarely ever work. And if they do, they’re short lived.

There will always be a new shiny new object coming out. This is why the best thing you can do is stop looking for these ‘shortcuts’ altogether, and start educating yourself. Learn how to build a real online business.

This way, you are investing in yourself and your business. And you can build a business that has the potential to generate you a real passive income.

It’s not that you can’t make ‘easy money’ online. I literally make money while I sleep as an affiliate, as do many others I know. But I still work hard on my business and it certainly didn’t start that way.

It started with a real education and a whole lot of effort.

This may not be the exciting news you wanted. But it’s the truth. And it’s good news for people who are willing to commit to taking massive action on their business. This ‘online thing’ actually does work. It’s just the majority of ‘systems’ that don’t.
