Sales - Luck or Skill? - Or in fact both?

TommyCarey

In the world of online marketing there are a lot of lucky people out there who capitalize on something before it becomes saturated or the bubble bursts. These people got in at the right time and either stopped when the work started slowing or they sold their system when their own profits started to dwindle. These are the so called "Gurus" who sell their systems lol.

I would say that it definitely takes both luck and skills in order to make a good income online, and here's why.

Skills:
The things you've learned over the years will come in handy when setting up a new website, system, software or a sales funnel because you've already done all the trial and error throughout the years and know what works. Sometimes you'll get hit with a ton of bricks and get 0 sales even if you do everything according to your perfect plan, and that's happened plenty of times to top marketers. Your skills are what get you to set up the systems that the beginner can't, and that sets you ahead of the pack when it comes to making money or sales.

Luck:
If you're just starting out online or you're an experience marketer, you'll always run into luck whether it's big or small. I've seen some people start up an odd service and hit it big in a little amount of time and then sell their website or business for an extreme profit. On the other hand I've seen people invest thousands into a system and make nothing in return

Luck usually get's seen as huge profits by someone who took a chance, and not even a calculated chance. If everything was calculated and analyzed, then you profited huge, that fall into the realm of skills, not luck. But even the master marketers out there take chances even though all the data says something won't work, but luck is on their side and shined on them brightly

I definitely think it takes both skill and luck to pull in sales. I prefer to go the skills route and not take too many chances, and it's worked out well so far. I do take some chances and they don't always pan out for the best, but I try not to invest too much money into my gambles because if I lose it all I'm not losing much. But if I hit it big, I did it on a small investment and it pays an enormous ROI
