Hello, Friends! If you are reading this article,you probably have started an online business, or are looking to start a new one, and are you looking for the best online business tips you can get your hands on, right? I know I would be looking around for nothing but the best information. This article is somewhat of a crash course in internet marketing. Nothing too detailed but has some key areas of what you need to be successful in online marketing.
1. I know I say this in many of my articles, but find a mentor. Find somebody whom you trust and has and still is making money online. The one exception to this is you have experience in online marketing and you know what you're doing. However, the best need help sometimes and it is good to have somebody around to help guide you to what to do next. If you can't find a mentor, find a community of people who are like-minded and are happy to help get you where you need to be. Forums are great for this.Don't get cocky and go at this alone. There is a reason for such a high failure rate in this industry.
2. Alright on to the next point of discussion. Find a marketing method you enjoy and that is in your price range. You can do paid or free advertising, both having their own advantages and disadvantages. Don't start one and move on to the next if one doesn't work right away. Things don't happen overnight. You will end up burning yourself out and probably start losing more money than you need to. Pick one and stick with it until you have a good grasp on how to make it work for you. Once you have it mastered, move into medium of advertising.
3. Next is staying persistent. Don't give up, and stay focused. Keep going when the odds are against you and looking like all is lost. This is the time when the most incredible things can happen if you just stick with it. All of us become frustrated in this business at one point or another, but the people who keep chugging along no matter what see the results. These challenges are what are going to make you sharp in this industry. Failures earn you experience and experience gets you a cut above the rest.
4. Decide if you are going to sell a high ticket item or a low ticket item. Why does this matter? With a high ticket item you need to sell less of the item to make money, this is especially helpful for new marketers. For the same amount of traffic to your site you can make 10 times the amount of money for one high ticket item sold than 10 low ticket items sold. So why would you sell low ticket items? Low ticket items are great for a highly targeted market in which you item is in high demand. I prefer offering the high ticket item.
5. Deliver what the customer is looking for. Make this a win/win situation. Help the customer get what they want and they will help you out in return. An entitlement mentality will bite you in the ass. No one wants to do business with somebody who is in it for themselves. Be a genuine person and people will see that you are worth their time. A less than quality person will be ok in the short run, but their luck ALWAYS runs out at some point.
