I am sick and tired of people who constantly want things “handed to them on a plate” and they do not do anything about it.
Take the case of some forums where people constantly ask “CAN I HAVE A REVIEW COPY”.
The real world does not work like that. When you walk into a Apple Store do you ask to take the product home and test it out?
It is a growing concern that some people who are “FREEBIE SEEKERS” on the Internet are the people you should avoid and not worth marketing to because these people will constantly ask for “FREEBIE” products, they will even make an email about these freebie gifts and they will not do anything about it because they not only will they be lazy but they will keep collecting these e-books until they rot away on their hard drive.
Come on – this is Internet Marketing. I mean don’t get me wrong. I love giving away GOOD QUALITY CONTENT for FREE but when you try to market something to someone they always expect something to be FREE..

Also people who pay for something have the motivation to do something to warrant their expenditure.There is no point constantly collecting freebies – it takes up space on your computer and can be distracting.
When you run a business you would not go into a shop and ask them to give you freebies hell no!
You have to pay. The mindset for newbie marketers is always the same but their comes a time when you have to move on and be pro. That is do something with your business and not just sit their collecting freebies!
Get working guys! Its survival of the fittest.

Too many people want too much for free..
Its better they pay, even a small amount for every report is better than free for these people. They use it more often, if they have paid for it!
Keep up the good work Imran, we love your work!
