The 2023 Online Business Investment Survey

In early 2021, I released the first edition of the Online Business Investment Survey to understand why people made the investments they did and what their experiences were really like. In a market with very little open discussion of people’s experiences, this survey helped shed light on how people were manipulated and what they wanted from their investments. Fast forward to 2023, and I’m still here banging my drum about the BS in the online business world, so I decided to do the survey again to explore how things have evolved over the past two years. What I share in this podcast episode is a tiny snapshot of a much bigger industry problem where there’s a massive disconnect between what’s being sold and what’s being delivered.
