Okay, so you’ve definitely heard the saying, “the definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result,”right?That being said,there definitely are times when you watch some of “what” ambitious newbie online marketers do over and over,
And you have to wonder, is there something going own with their critical thinking skills. Seriously, because after being exposed to certain online (proven) marketing realities,“how” can they or you simply ignore certain stats and continue doing what they’re doing?
And then with a straight face,“why” things just aren’t working out!You’ll see what I mean in just a second.But honestly, there are some undeniable marketing realities, yet it’s as “if” the newbies somehow seem to feel (or believe), these stats (and therefore) marketing realities simply do not apply to them!
And as a direct result, they all but systematically sabotage their chances for real long term success!
Critical Thinking:Three Simply Reasons Why Far Too Many Newbies Has There’s Questioned!
First of all, let me say I totally get “why” newbie online marketers may feel a certain need to wanna show (and or) establish a certain amount independent thought. And not won’t to be considered part of some sort of group think. But not when their (so called) contrarian thought, is clearly not in their long term best interest!
Case in point: the following (all too) common three occurrences, that are primarily being committed by newbie after newbie.Over and over again, leads one to conclude that (either) they have some real issues with conformity and or perhaps, there’s something up with critical thinking skills! 😎
You be the judge.
1.) Reason for questioning their critical thinking skills # one: This first one is really sort of a head scratch er. If really it’s true, and according to (at least) 90% of the so called experts, that are really supposed to know about these sort of things.
A staggering 90% of what our brains really absorbs is primarily visually based!So in the face of that type of overwhelming marketing evidence!
How (pray tell) can you rationally explain newbie after newbie, creating targeted blog content that virtually have little or no visual graphics in them?Again, is there something really sinister going on here with their critical thinking skills?
Or does this simply have to do more with their uncontrollable (death wish) desires to somehow be viewed as rebels!
If It’s Truly Not A Lack Of Critical Thinking Skills? (How The Heck Do You Explain It?)
2.) Reason for questioning their critical thinking skills # two: Perhaps you (or they) have a completely rational answer for this next all too common occurrence. If their competitors readily admit, that simply by consistently publishing (highly targeted),“how to” problem solving information, for their specific target group, they regularly generate up to 88% more new leads, than their competitors do, by doing so!
“How” do you or they explain blog abandonment? Or not publishing fresh new problem solving content for three or four weeks at a time?
Now for just a second, try and wrap your mind around the potential long term profits, systematically being left on the table, as a direct result of this type inconsistency!
First, if 100 potential targeted prospects get exposed to their laser focused marketing message (and or) their competitors! A staggering 88% of them become leads!Say what?
And some of them (no doubt) eventually become paying customers and or clients! And a certain percentage of them also develop into full fledged repeat customers or clients, that also consistently refer others and provide bank account filling testimonials!
Plus they routinely (and consistently) spread the word all over social media,and and offline to friends, family and coworkers etc!
Again, “how” do you rationally explain newbies not consistently posting problem solving blog content for literally weeks and or months at a time?Seriously, you don’t feel their all important critical thinking skills should be brought into question?
Developing Your Critical Thinking Skills Is Definitely A Worthwhile Investment!
3.) Reason for questioning their critical thinking skills # three: And finally, while newbies are (without a doubt) all over the various social media platforms!
And most of them were long before they ever had their first (mobile responsive) WordPress blog! And they are to be commended for that!However, since they’re active on various social media platforms like twitter.
And it’s a well known fact that, the tweets with (either) images and or infographics in them, (on average) generate a staggering 832% more retweets!So naturally that explains “why” the vast majority of their tweets don’t include images and or infographics,right?
Let me guess!You and or they have a perfectly logical explanation for this consistent misstep,right?Well perhaps there is a perfectly logical explanation for these blatant missteps!
And perhaps it has absolutely nothing to do with a lack critical thinking skills! But you can’t really blame a guy for wondering out loud, now can ya?Again, I’ll let you be the judge!
Hopefully No One Will Be Questioning Your Critical Thinking Skills Any Time Soon! (Right?)
