What was the most important lesson you learned from Internet Marketing?

Hi,


I want to share the most important lesson I learned from internet marketing and I am very interested in hearing yours as well.


Not Having A Plan

Not having a plan was the most important lesson I learned and when an Internet marketer is investing money in a marketing campaign, it is very crucial to put a lot of effort into it. After all, you want to make sure you are seeing some return on your investments.


But when I first started out with Internet Marketing as a business, I did not put enough effort into it. Of course, when you are first starting off you tend not to put a lot of cash on the line so if something does not work out you are not to bum out about it too much. I also tended to forget to do important steps because I got too wrapped up into things that did not matter.


However, I had to learn how to think differently. I needed to take more serious approach to my marketing campaign as if it was a $20,000 investment! When I started to do this not only did I learn a lot but it paid off for my business in the long term.


Now I make sure to have a plan made for when I am trying to achieve something. Now I am always thinking about how I can better develop my business in this manner.



Please share the most important lesson you learned from Internet Marketing.
