Gurus Use Ghostwriters!

by Amanda on May 9, 2007

Yes it’s true, Gurus use Ghostwriters.

 If you have been online for any amount of time or you are subscribed to any online marketing newsletters you will probably be familiar with a new product that was launched by Shaun Casey called “Desperate For Money“. 

In this book you will find what they are calling blueprints or step by step instructions from 15 different online gurus explaining how to make over $1,000 in 48 hours. I myself got a copy of this book, ever the optimist and always looking for ways to make more money and guess what, to my surprise a number of these blueprints involved using a ghostwriter. 

In this book each of the gurus are given a 48 hour deadline to make a minimum of $1,000.  There are not allowed to use their lists, they only have $200, and they don’t have the use of a phone either.  All they have is a computer and internet connection. Of course they all managed to make $1,000 or more but the interesting thing was how they did it. 

Many of them used Elance to source ghostwriters much to my surprise.  I hadn’t realized just how popular Elance was but being listed by the top gurus really is saying something. Now I’m not writing this post to get you to go out and buy Desperate for Money, you can do so if you wish (I have added the link), but what I am trying to point out is that even the top marketing gurus themselves rely on us ghostwriters to earn them top dollars.  So you see you really can charge realistic prices and be paid.  

Have you ever heard of Bob Bly the big name copywriter, well he gets paid at least $3,000 per hour.  So what I am trying to say to everyone is, keep positive, invest time in your work, do your research, and you too could be up there working alongside those high paying big money earning internet marketing gurus. 

Until next time, keep writing, and if you’re not registered with Elance do it now.
