Of all of the things you can do internet, there is one that you should surely know how to do. MARKET A Venture Online!
That's right, with the power of the Internet World to reach millions of folks, Online Marketing is definitely an awesome tool that no venture ought to be without. The simple fact that promoting is practically FREE. The ability to get the results of thousands of dollars in free publicity is practically unheard of in business currently. Only recently have much more and much more folks figured out how to employ the ever exploding Online World to market their enterprise efforts.
Imagine that, there is likely no business in existence that could not benefit from free publicity! And the fact that properly utilizing free promoting raises net profits to unbelievable levels! Using any or all of the major online services, or the Online, can help you market your enterprise efforts.
Let's start with plain-old promoting. On America Internet, for instance, they will let you place classified advertisements for FREE! They have a variety of classifications to choose from. By placing these little free advertisements you can certainly produce some very quality leads that can turn into sales. Or if you are a really good marketer you could sell something straight from your free ad. Wouldn't that be something, using the actual free ad to do all of the selling.
The other services offer free promoting from time to time. When they do charge for classified adverts it is usually very inexpensive, and still a great deal considering the amount of people those advertisements can certainly reach. When you place any advertisements you should always "code" your adverts. This means put something in each individual ad that will tell you, if you get any venture from it, which ad it came from. This way, you'll probably find that some sections are better producers than others, and you will want to concentrate on these sections and not the ones that weren't making any money.
To code an advertisement you could make them request a certain "report" for more information. You should give each report a different code for each ad. Such as: "ask for report #1tv" , this way you would know that this request came from the ad on television, for sale category, and so forth. If they send you an order straight from the ad, make them give you an order #, which would be different for each ad. THE MAJORITY OF Individuals WHO ARE Promoting Online ARE NOT USING THESE AD CODES!!! THIS IS A MAJOR Marketing MISTAKE!!!
By not tracking exactly which ads are making money, they are wasting their time by continually placing adverts in "loser" categories. The actual code can certainly be anything you want to assign to it. ALWAYS keep track of every ad you place. Earn a note of what it said, where and when it was placed. You will be pleasantly shocked when you analyze your "ad data" and see some positive trends developing. Just repeat these trends and it will help you to make a lot more money!
How would you like to find a name list of several hundred (or even thousand) people who could be interested in the particular product or service you are selling based on their jobs or interests? Wouldn't that be great!? Well, you can certainly! And the Internet Services supply this service as a part of your regular membership.
This little unknown tool is called the "Member Directory!" You could do searches in the directory for other users with certain characteristics. For instance, if you were selling fishing equipment, you could do a search by "fishing." All of the folks that were registered inside the directory and had listed fishing as one of their hobbies would appear on that search list. You could now send each one of those folks an e-mail message telling them about your product or service, it's just like using a mailing list, but you have no postage! (*Make sure you check with your Online service to see if they allow unsolicited E-mail.)
You could also get the names of several prospects by doing some "browsing" inside the different topic forums. Using the earlier example of looking for folks who fish, you could look under sports until you found a discussion on fishing. You could then take note of the users' names that were participating in the discussions. You could do precisely the same thing on the Internet with one of the a lot of newsgroup topics that they have.
The bottom line is that you 'test" and record the results of your Internet Marketing efforts. Then just repeat the steps that are making you money and expand on them to reach far more folks.
