Catchy Headlines - How Much Do They Say?
One of the biggest problems work at home entrepreneurs have to face in the early stages of their entrepreneurial adventures is headlines. We are uneducated. We can’t tell who’s lying and who’s telling the truth. More important, we’re not used to reading between the lines.
This is actually what this post, Catchy Headlines - Beware category and the rest of the posts in this category are all about. Teaching us how to read between the lines. Especially when it comes to headlines.
I want to make it clear from the very beginning that what I’m trying to do here is teach folks what to understand from headlines. How to approach them and keep an open mind and not give in to their first impulse. How to stand back and ask themselves how much of that headline is true, how much does it actually tell, what possible things might not be told and how can they affect us in the near future.
If any of you will have a single bit of curiosity about this issue and do a little research on each headline I’ll analyze here, you’ll find that some of them belong to real, reputable, honest business opportunities.
One of the things I “preach” on this blog is that, without work, dedication, perseverance and (eventually) investments, you can join the best affiliate program, business opportunity, buy the best business packages and solutions and yet they won’t work for you. That’s why I decided to talk about headlines belonging to honest opportunities too: to emphasize my point.
In time, most likely, this serie will not focus only on work at home related headlines. You see these things anywhere you turn: radio and TV ads, advertising boards, sales announcements etc. Learning how to look behind the headlines (of any kind) is a great exercise for learning to read between the lines, which is essential for any (home based) business owner.
Bellow is the list of headlines I’ve talked about so far. Click on each one of them to read the post dedicated to it.
