Daniel St-jean asked:


It’s very possible – more like probable according to the latest statistics – that as an Internet Marketer you’re you having PROBLEMS…

-Grabbing and keeping surfers’ attention…

-Driving lots of targeted traffic to your Web site…

-Generating scores of quality leads and prospects…

-Building a huge, responsive mailing list…

-Making enough sales to cover your expenses (even though your goal is to make lots of money to do the things in life that you and your loved ones really want to do).

 

If you’re experiencing ANY of the disheartening problems mentioned above, a big reason for your lack of success could be that you’re making a marketing mistake of Xorkian proportions.

 

Many of you (especially baby boomers) will remember “Mork & Mindy”, the popular and funny sitcom of the late 70’s. Mork (Robin Williams) was an alien from Planet Ork sent to Earth to study human beings. He looked just like an earthling (though he did not behave like one) and lived in Boulder, Colorado, with beautiful Mindy (Pam Dawber).

 

I want you to imagine for a minute that Xork (Mork’s brother) and his girlfriend Xindy arrived on earth a couple of days ago. Now they’ve decided it’s time to learn to drive a car – the one parked in your driveway.

 

Having seen TV commercials about “filling up”, the first thing Xork does is to grab the garden hose and fill your near-empty gas tank with water.

 

What do you think will happen next? How quickly do you think Xork will learn to drive? How far will he go? You can pretty much figure out that the whole project will be a disaster.

 

Yet, the car is in great working order (except for the content of the tank), the keys are in the ignition (tsk tsk tsk…), the roads are fine, the weather is great, the instruction manual in the glove compartment is very informative and user-friendly, Xork and Xindy are patient students and they really want to learn. And yet, disaster looms. Why is that?

 

Because the ‘essential’ ingredient for the success of this endeavor is a tank full of gas. And in the scenario I just described, there’s no gas – just water. No matter how good the car, the road, the weather, the manual, the student or the intention, without gas Xork & Xindy ain’t gonna go nowhere.

 

Does that sound like some of your Internet marketing endeavors?

 

Here’s why that’s the case: no matter how many people are on the Internet, if you don’t have the ‘essential’ ingredient, you won’t have a whole lot of traffic. And without the ‘essential’ ingredient, the little traffic you’ll get will be made up of poor quality leads, they won’t sign up for your newsletter, they won’t join your business opportunity, they won’t buy your products or retain your services. And you might go broke as a result.

 

Now, let’s juxtapose your situation with the Orkans’ to bring the point home. No matter how good the car (your computer), the road (the Internet), the weather (the Marketplace), the instruction manual (all the Internet marketing strategies and techniques available), the student (the Internet surfer) or the intention (looking for a product or a service), without the ‘essential’ ingredient, your marketing – no matter what method you use – will be a flop. Without “gas”, you’re SOL – just like Xork & Xindy!

 

Well, if the ‘essential’ ingredient for Xork is gas, what’s the ‘essential’ ingredient that will make your Internet marketing take off like a Ferrari on steroids? It’s simply this: knowing precisely what makes people tick. If you don’t know that, you’re up a creek without a paddle.

 

Some of you might be slightly disappointed that the ‘essential’ ingredient is something so “ordinary”, so… common sense. It IS that, but as you are well aware, common sense is not common practice. What is baffling is that no sane person would think of starting a road trip with a thank full of water, and yet, those same “sane” marketers will start an Internet campaign with messages full of the wrong stuff, stuff no one really cares about – like features for example.

 

Look, do you want to succeed with your Internet marketing campaigns so you can make tons of sales so you can make lots of money so you can have some time freedom to enjoy your life? Do you?

 

Good answer! The sure-fire way to do the aforementioned is to be “in-the-know”.

 

What does “in-the-know” mean? It means knowing precisely what motivates people to act – to click, to subscribe, to sign-up, to join, to buy – to do anything, really. It’s knowing WHAT to say (or write) and WHEN to say it, and it’s knowing what NOT to say (not that you want to hide things, but for example, telling people all the details of HOW you would complete their tax return – aka the features – before you tell them WHY it’s important that it gets done properly – aka the benefits – will be a big waste of everybody’s time).

 

Now, as an Internet marketer, your chances of success at selling – as in trading goods or services for money, but also as in convincing, persuading, influencing – will improve significantly, perhaps even dramatically, if you are selling what the surfer is wanting to, ready to, and agreeable to buy! And to do that well and consistently, you MUST be in-the-know.

 

Here, for example, are three irrefutable and undeniable facts of life you become acutely aware of when you’re “in-the-know”:

 

-The most listened-to radio station on Earth is WIII-FM: What Is In It For Me?

 

-People buy on emotions… and then justify with facts.

 

-Everything people do, they do either out of their need to avoid/reduce pain, and/or their desire to gain/increase pleasure.

 

A successful Internet marketer is one who uses that knowledge – and the many other facts of life one learns when “in-the-know” – to design every element of his marketing campaign, keeping in mind at all times that the best possible selling-buying scenario is the one where, at the end of the deal, EVERYBODY WINS!

 

So, if Internet marketing success is key for you and your family living the Richer Life you all desire and deserve, do your research and your due diligence and find out all you can so that you are “in-the-know” about what will grab the surfers’ attention, what will make them get off their (key)board long enough to read your material, internalize your message, and follow your command – click, buy, join, subscribe – now!

 

The information is out there. Find it, and be “in-the-know”: it’s a matter of (Richer) life or (Internet) death!

Surely, most everybody who constantly uses the Internet is familiar with the term Internet marketing. Also called Internet advertising or eMarketing, this process is, as the name suggests, the marketing of products and services over the World Wide Web.

Why is Internet marketing so in demand these days?

If you’re going to ask Internet advertisers how their approach to marketing differs from the conventional approach, they can say:

l    Internet marketing costs less than conventional marketing.

Companies don’t have to spend as much money trying to put up advertisements on the Internet as compared to traditional marketing campaigns. For more details go to www.achieving-liftoffs.com .A startup company would need at least a couple of thousands of dollars to set up a low-end ad campaign, while joining an affiliate program or posting ads on the Internet can be done for free. Also, setting up websites only cost a few hundred dollars

l    advertising on the Internet opens a company’s products and services up to a wider market.

Now, the products and services they offer can go beyond the locale they are operating on. Companies can get customers from the next town, the next state, even as far as other countries.

l    Internet-based advertisements are always on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Unlike television and radio ads wherein they are only aired for a limited number of minutes and only at certain times, online marketing campaigns are always posted on the web, waiting for the next interested customer to view. Your site will always be online even if you’re sleeping. While you’re snoozing off, people are still chancing up on your Internet ads and clicking on them.

l    Internet marketing gives you the privilege of time.

Internet marketing lets you set the pace. You can take it as slow as you want or pump up the tempo as fast as you want to go. You can choose to work on your Internet marketing campaign for the entire day and spend time with your kids the next, it’s all up to you.

l    Internet marketing can be done with cheap and free resources.

Companies that are looking for ways to advertise need no longer seek the consult of an expensive marketing adviser to find out what you need to do to better expose your products or services to the public. One can simply browse the Internet for helpful tips from various article sites to find tried and tested online marketing suggestions.

l    Internet marketing makes for higher profit margins.

Online advertising costs relatively cheaper compared to the usual methods, therefore this means you get to keep more of what you earned from the advertisements to yourself. For more details go to www.impacts-audio.com .This means you have more money to use to further improve your business and grow it into a bigger organization than it already is.

l    Internet marketing offers companies an extra means to earn money.

For companies that already have existing marketing campaigns offline, investing on Internet marketing strategies will serve as an alternative means of income. Even if they just leave the online ad alone after being launched people will continue to come across it and possibly generate them sales.

In a nutshell, Internet marketing offers companies a lighter alternative to the conventional marketing strategies we’ve all grown up to. It’s easy, it’s economical, and it’s effective. With all three needs met, what else could a company look for?

Businesses are moving at a furious pace to the Internet.Being online is becoming a commodity! Business owners who do not know a great deal about Internet marketing but who wish to implement Internet marketing into their overall marketing strategy should carefully study the basic principles of Internet marketing before launching their online marketing campaign. Fortunately for these business owners, particularly Multilevel Marketing business owners, there are a variety of options for learning about Internet marketing .Business can now market their presence on the internet in a number of ways including web sites, blogs, email, articles, and various forms of advertising and brand awareness. Therefore why would a business worry about creating an e-presence today?

Internet marketing promotion and advertising is crucial for your website?s success. Take time to create a buzz about your site and that will keep people coming back. Internet marketing promotion as one example is the fastest growing and most dominant tool used in the travel market today. Without an effectively designed and marketed website, web sites run the risk of becoming invisible.

Online promotion is all about name exposure, getting your name all over the internet. Not only does the content on your site need to be optimized, but you also must generate online exposure all over the internet in order to generate traffic and improve your search engine rankings. Online businesses operate in a highly competitive, global marketplace.However the Internet has broken down geographical barriers, enabling fast moving small companies to compete effectively with much larger rivals.Online advertising,print advertising and niche advertising are but a few of the advertising ideas an organization can use and these are discussed further .

Advertising that promotes both your products and your website will keep them coming back for more. Web site traffic should be the focus of early Internet marketing promotion advertising. Advertising & sales methods include search engine marketing, optimisation of keyword content, advertising of website banners, paid inclusion of sites in search engine listings with high volume media assetts. Other online marketing & promotion approaches including online blogging, display advertising, email marketing & affiliate advertising and search engine programmes.

Advertising through banners is the best first option for beginners. Additionally, these internet entrepreneurs looked to other media to spread the word of their wares, and quickly these leaps of faith paid off. Print ads are now routinely taken out for online businesses, and in many cases a website takes the place of a telephone number. Additional categories might be added at a later time. For now, if you have websites that fall into the above categories, go register then start submitting your best content

Search engines are divided into two sections, search engines and directories, and pay per click engines. While the most favored and effective form of internet marketing promotion, this category is also the most expensive. Search engines are the method most consumers use to find the products and services that they are looking for. This very important advertising medium can be paid for by becoming a page sponsor or with correct registrations, rich content, and with following protocol.However businesses may find themselves on the first two pages of a search engine results without buying a sponsorship.Internet marketing and promotion requires only the very best tools to promote your web site to the world,with total web site promotion tools and internet marketing tools to drive your online traffic.

Article writing and distribution is one of the best means of Internet marketing promotion.Article directories always allow you to include information about yourself and your website, so people can see it and be encouraged to visit your website to see what you’re all about. While you’re at it, why not try offering a freebie, such as an e-book, to get visitors to your site? Article marketing fundamentals are like the parts of a house; you must have a foundation, a frame, walls, and then, if you like, trim and decoration. Follow this blueprint and you will become a successful article marketer.Just like article writing, you may also use weblogs or simply blogs for your Internet marketing business promotion.

Web promotion and marketing’s one another internet marketing promotion advertising tip is always to explore new options.As an example you can think of maybe trying direct mail etc. Websites with a page dedicated to a privacy policy also get a higher ranking and your site will show up higher in the search results. Website promotion and seo campaign management is a full time job,and there is a lot of research, trend studies, and analyzing statistics that go into any successful web campaign.

Advertising a web site involves using creative thinking just like any business. Using a popular keyword for your online advertising campaign may cause additional expense to your search engine placement.However remember this, business and marketing knowledge in most cases are very limited.However Internet marketing imagination encircles the world.

Roderick MacKenzie asked:


Trying to decide how to strategically market your product or service (or yourself) on the internet can be overwhelming. There are a myriad of marketing possibilities to choose from, and more great strategies are being offered almost daily. How can an internet marketer decide on the best strategic marketing plan that works for their business?

There seems to be as many answers for which strategies to use in what situation than there are internet marketing strategies themselves! There are definitely too many strategies for any one marketer to utilize them all. If you have a very large team with access to multiple internet marketing specialists, your marketing strategies can incorporate most available methods. However, most of us do not have access to that kind of resource.

How Do You Choose Your Internet Marketing Strategies?

There are too many internet marketing options to discuss them all in a short article, but there are three general principles that can make a huge difference to your marketing efforts. Following these principles will not just improve the success of your current internet marketing plan, but can help you figure out where to start focusing your efforts in the first place.

Three Principles for Making Appropriate Strategic Marketing Choices

1) Be Capable in your Strategic Marketing

Not all marketers are created equal. We all have a variety of strengths and weaknesses. Unfortunately we tend to focus more on how to fix our weaknesses rather than how to harness our strengths. It is true we should all strive to improve ourselves, but sometimes the time and effort placed on learning the internet marketing strategies we are struggling with would be better placed finding and perfecting strategies that we already have an aptitude for.

When a strategy works well for the majority of marketers it does not necessarily mean it will work well for you. If a particular strategy does not come easily to you, it will take more time and will likely not generate the top quality you need to stand out against your competitors. If you are not adept at something, use a different strategy that you can implement effectively with the unique capabilities you do have, or make the investment to outsource if you have the means to do so.

This does not mean we should not learn new strategies! If you are not constantly learning, you will also not succeed. Make sure you are not perpetually spending more time learning something that is difficult for you than you are taking to actually market your product or service. Some great internet marketing strategies are better left for others who have a better aptitude for them. Their expertise will allow them to do it better than you anyway.

2) Care About your Strategic Marketing

Let’s face it; everything we do in marketing is not fun. It is work, and most definitions of work do not include the word ‘fun’. However…take a second and think about sitting in front of your computer to work on your latest marketing project. If you would rather be sitting in the dentist’s chair getting a couple of teeth pulled, you are spending your time with the wrong strategies. Work can actually be enjoyable. At the very least, you should be able to find a few good strategies that beat getting teeth pulled. There are many strategic marketing choices on the internet. Pick the ones you enjoy and care about.

“But my current marketing strategies are supposed to be the best for my product!” “My upline says this strategy has been working for everyone on the team!” If you hate what you are doing, it will show in your work, just as your passion will shine through when you are doing something you love. It will be difficult to put in extra hours when necessary, you will be more apt to give up prematurely, and you will be unable to do exceptional stand-out work if you hate every minute of it.

Start by learning the marketing strategies you are most interested in, see which ones you like, and master those first. Eventually learn them all so you can find which methodologies you most enjoy and are best at. These will be the marketing strategies that perform the best for you and are more sustainable in the long run.

3) Be Consistent with your Strategic Marketing

For many marketers, the strategy seems to be: ‘Chase the latest and greatest marketing options as soon as they appear.’ They work on something, get mediocre results, then three weeks later when a great new idea comes along, abandon their current efforts and ‘try’ something else. This is not a recipe for sustainable success.

Sometimes the latest hot new marketing trend can work wonders and inject a lot of cash into your business. New ideas should be taken advantage of when appropriate. However, if it’s new it is unproven and may fail. Has it been tested in your niche market? Will it still be working a week from now? If you change your marketing plan more often than you change your socks, you will never get really good at anything. You will be spending as much time learning new things as you do actually marketing your product or service.

Consistency is the key. If your strategic marketing plan is based on solid and proven strategies and you do not give up and start something new every couple weeks, you will become an expert in those strategies. They will get easier, less time consuming, and start running like clockwork to bring you a consistent stream of clients. It is easier and less risky to learn and test new methods when you have a proven and profitable system already in place to fall back on.

Points for Choosing the Right Internet Marketing Strategy

- Develop a good strategic base of internet marketing methods that you enjoy and are capable of implementing effectively.

- Be consistent with these marketing strategies so you become an expert and are profiting from them with minimal effort.

- Try almost everything, including the ‘hot’ new methods that look like they have potential, but don’t abandon the tried and true methods that have already been proven to work.

- If you find new marketing methods that you enjoy and can utilize effectively, add them to your long tern internet marketing strategy and use them consistently until you master them.

Follow these steps, be patient and consistent, and you will succeed in finding your own strategic path through the internet marketing jungle. Happy Marketing!

Marketings Greatest Secret

Marketing Buzz asked:


Do you know what the best type of Marketing is for your company?

How about a Yellow Pages advert? Pay per click? Maybe some direct mail followed up a telemarketing campaign?

Well whilst each of these are perfectly valid marketing routes and one’s any forward thinking company should at least test the very best type of marketing for all types of business is the type that is FREE!!!

That’s right Ladies and Gentlemen, if you’re working with a tight marketing budget (or indeed with no set marketing budget at all) then you can now get exposure for your product, service or company in the form of PR (or Public Relations).

For large companies PR is big business. They will think nothing of employing staff with the sole intention of getting the name of their company in the media (be it written press, television, radio or online). And because the PR market is seemingly dominated by the larger companies small companies shy away from using PR in their marketing mix.

If this applies to you then good times could well be ahead as PR is a vital part of the marketing mix for smaller companies in particular as they often don’t have the time or money to spend on often expensive advertising or other marketing.

Successful businesses of all sizes use PR to promote their business, build their reputation and become a recognised expert in their particular field. And the beauty of PR is that everyone is an expert in something. And by passing on your expertise in a particular subject in the right way you become newsworthy.

And that is the real secret when it comes to good PR. It has to be interesting and newsworthy. Nobody cares that you’ve just launched a new website or that Mrs Jones in Accounts has just become a Grandmother for the second time (both subjects I’ve seen in press releases and both subjects I’ve seen in journalist’s bins!!). And if you’ve ever attempted PR only not to have it published then I wouldn’t worry too much about it as you’re amongst the 99% of companies who send out PR that isn’t newsworthy or interesting.

Here are a few words on Why PR is important.

Communication lies at the heart of today’s modern society. Be it on the internet, television, pod casts or whatever medium you choose. And with so many firms competing for the same business as you, how do your customers differentiate between you and your competitors?

The answer lies not particularly in the size of your Yellow Pages advert but how you project yourself and what your firm has to offer.

PR has a huge sway in the minds of consumers as the perceived third party endorsement that comes from editorial coverage can be substantial, maybe even more so than advertising that can cost hundreds or thousands of pounds.

PR done well can result in increased exposure, increased business and increased profits. And if you want your business to be the best it can be then becoming good at PR is something you want to do.

And remember, it’s FREE!!!!
