Internet Marketing for the Newcomer
By Brian Worley
With the popularity of the World Wide Web expanding around the Globe, More and more people will try their hand at making a living on line with Internet Marketing. Whether, it's to break away from a 'Dead End' job or get a way from a Boss you dislike! Or perhaps a single parent with a need to supplement an income. Retirees wishing to add to their pensions! or full blown marketers setting out to build a Million Dollar Internet Business.
One thing for certain, they all have one thing in common! A desire for financial independence. To being financially secure as to not to have to worry about those monthly bills. To be able to live a lifestyle any where they choose. Live on the Beach, High in the Mountains, London, Paris or Rome! They world really is your oyster if you are able to make a success of creating an income On-Line.
Anyone can start an Internet Marketing Business. There no real huge investment requiring bank loans, No buildings to maintain, no staff, and office costs etc. All you kneed is a computer, telephone line and an Internet connection.
Simple! Not quite! A word of caution. If it was that easy we would all be Internet Millionaires. The subject of Internet Marketing is a very broad one indeed one of the most covered topics today. And it's one that I will not enter into here. But Internet marketing is just that: 'Marketing on the Internet'.
When starting out, it's important not to let your enthusiasm, trap you into exchanging one set of restrictions for yet another! Set a clear plan of the lifestyle to wish to have, and how much time you intend to spend on achieving it. After all you don't want to spend 12 hours a day in front of a computer making money for the sake of it! Keep you reasons for making money with Internet Marketing in the forefront of your mind.
The whole idea of making money on line by harnessing the power of Internet technology, is to reduce the amount of time creating the necessary wealth to sustain an existing lifestyle or to fulfil the ambition of a better one! If successful, the reward is the freedom to enjoy the rewards and other pursuits, such as family, hobbies, and sports etc. Things that add to the quality that makes life worth while
Have some discipline! Create a time plan. Don't spend all of it in front of the computer. You will not obtain all the knowledge that you kneed as if by magic or willpower alone! Take time out to read the information that you feel will assist your business. Also, and most important, do not spend the time on line at the expense of the precious time usually spent with friends and family. After all you don't want to gain a business and lose what you already have!
Just like any "Off-Line" Business. Take time to investigate all the options. What suits you best? Try to develop a business plan!. Create some sort of a feasibility study! Keep your ultimate goal in mind by all means, but don't try to run before you can walk. An online Internet Marketing business is just like any 'Off-Line' Business, whether it is Part Time or Full Time. It is still a 'Business' and can be wildly successful beyond you wildest dreams or be a miserable failure.
Take into consideration you technical knowledge, marketing experience, your strengths and weakness. Should you begin by selling a product or join a 'turnkey' affiliate programme? Decide on the amount of time to spend on your business? For the things your not sure of, there is a multitude of "How To" products out there for you to take advantage of. (That's a huge market in itself). Some are good, some bad, some are free and others come with a price tag. But they all sing the same song, perhaps to a different tune.
But whatever you find, take the time to read and absorb what you have learnt! Trust me on this one. I know for certain I am not the only one, that in my enthusiasm to get started, rushed out, credit card in hand, and downloaded a bunch of "How To" products, only to read a paragraph or two before another offer caught my eye, and the "Order Now" button was clicked, yet again!! There were also occasions when I discovered that I purchased stuff I had already downloaded months before and not taken the time to read!! And they were all sitting on my Hard Drive gathering cyber dust. How stupid is that? Don't make the same mistake. Have patients. More haste less speed.
One you have decided on what project or programme you are going to promote. Stick to it! Exhaust every avenue within you knowledge range, time and budget until it becomes either the success you are looking for or proves to be the wrong vehicle for you. Either way, you will learn something along the way, and saved a bunch of money and time with this philosophy. Internet marketing is exciting, challenging, and sometimes confusing... Internet marketing is not easy, but it also does not have to be difficult. Stick to one product or programme at a time. Don't make the mistake of diluting your efforts by running after too many projects at one time. Don't spread your self too thin. A moving glass will never burn the paper!
Steer clear of the "Get Rich in 48 Hours….without lifting a finger" schemes. There is no such thing as a "Free Lunch" and nothing in this world is obtained without some effort! The pockets of the promoters of these "Get Rich" Schemes are well lined, and he Internet is paved with the dreams of the folks who rushed out and signed up for them. Ask you self, would you have fallen for this or that scheme if you had read it in your local paper? The Internet is no different. than the real world that we live in.
One final thought; Try to acquire the necessary tools to make your Internet Marketing business a success. Set out achievable goals. – Don't overload yourself. Take small steps within certain time frames. Work your way through one step at a time. Don't move on until you have reached this goal. Build on your successes one step at a time. This way you build a strong foundation and sustain the growth of your business to achieve your dreams Try to step out of your skin. Pretend that you are hiring yourself- like a new employee that has to learn the ropes. As a boss, you wouldn't unfairly overload a newcomer starting out in the Internet Marketing business - so don't do it to yourself!
Last but not least; Dare to dream! Believe in your dreams! Believe in yourself! Your future is too important. Take the time to get to the top.
To Your success
