Forums: Discussions for entrepreneurs and small business.

In some threads here we have discussed the self-help industry.
I promised to write of my opinions; which many of you asked for.
That article is now public on my blog.
I hope you enjoy it, even if you don`t agree with it.

Good article, Ric. 

The main problem is the "cure in a pill" mentality that`s grown over the past half century, particularly in the US. My favorite example has been the "Learn to Play the piano in 10 easy steps." LOL!

Bottom line is that it`s more an ethical issue, whether or not someone feels right about selling these "secrets to success" programs. There are going to be plenty of buyers, just as there`ve been throughout history.

Thanks Craig.
No doubt I will not be everyone`s pin-up boy with this article.


Rgds,
Ric

Yah, but unless lots of people really hate what you have to say, you`re not goin` anywhere, right? After all, Frank Zappa signed Alice Cooper to his label because at the first concert Zappa attended, Cooper emptied completely a 15,000 seat stadium in about 10 minutes.

Zappa said, "Hey...they gotta have something! They affect people!"
