Benefits Of Internet Marketing - For Beginners Who Are Lost
- ARTICLES |
The mechanics of a successful online business has already been found. Get a site, build a list, then profit. But even if this simple process above sounds too daunting for you, maybe I should delve into reasons why you should implement that simple process. I assure you that the implementation of this is very easy.
There are many benefits of online marketing. First of them being a very little cost to get started. If you were to start an offline business, the amount of money being spent for advertising, inventory, employees, materials, computing, and even driving a company car can be very big.
But with online marketing, all of these things can be done for under $100. And depending on what business you’re in online, all of these things can be done for free. For example, one such model is being an affiliate for a web hosting company. There are many web hosting companies on the internet.
There is GoDaddy, Hostgator, Freehostia, Blue Host, Yahoo Web Hosting, SiteBuildIt, and more. All of these web hosting programs have a product: web hosting. And… they offer an “affiliate program” for people who would like to get paid for helping the web hosting company to get sales.
For every sale that you create, you will get paid a nice commission. And the beautiful thing about this kind of affiliate program is that you can get paid month after month after month from the customers that you helped to generate - without doing anything whatsoever. This kind of affiliate program is known as a “residual income affiliate program”.
I mention this real life example because as you can see, the possibilities of selling on the internet are limitless. And also, you will be surprised to know that getting sales fast on the internet isn’t hard at all. While it could take you months for a magazine ad to run that is promoting your $30 book… on the internet, you could put up an ad right now, drive lots of traffic to it, and get sales quickly - but only if you have the advertising funds to do so.
I love marketing online. The last business that I had that required some offline duties - even though it was primarily based online was selling on Ebay. Now don’t get me wrong… I made alot of money on Ebay, but the lifestyle wasn’t for me. I had to do so many things each day to keep up with managing the business, and I just got burnt out.
I was an Ebay Powerseller and a Top Rated Seller on Ebay, but I wanted more freedom, and I wanted more profits. I had alot of competition on Ebay, and that kind of stumped my growth, because we all were playing a price game. When I started my brand new website… I got to price my items at prices that made me incredibly profitable.
There are many benefits of selling online, but you have to make the decision as to whether or not you want to pursue it or not. I think you should start your own business and start marketing it online, because it will only get you closer to your dream of financial security online.
Good luck with marketing your internet business today.
