Attention Business Owners: Evolve or Die

3 replies
It continues to amaze me how some people out there that don't view the internet as a viable business opportunity. Whether you are talking about lead generation, business exposure, or an all out affiliate business, some people still see this stuff as "a load of crap".

There is a friend of the family who swore up and down she would NEVER use the internet (or a computer for that matter) with her business. Her business (drum roll please....)

Travel Agency!

Does that sound crazy or what? Needless to say she went out of business

My point is, people need to evolve with the times, or else you are going to be left behind. That also means us warriors too. Sometimes we can become comfortable doing things a certain way, but we need to continuing be trying new things, keeping our eyes open for the next wave, or else we will be left behind as well.

Evolve or die, lol!

    Great point Matt!!! I built LINK RACER for just this reason!!! It is the one thing that ALL web sites NEED... It is evolving with the net... It is making people realize that SEO is here and in a big way! That is a main stay of my customers! Then the article marketers are loving it even more----

    Point, why? Because the internet is a way of doing business and an integral part of your life now--- Without it, your in the stone age!!!!!!!

    I love when I meet with local clients and I show them (using google's keyword tool) just how many local people are searching for THEIR BUSINESS online. Lots of wow moments!

    It's just getting them to that point,

      It's hard to sell people on it, but you're absolutely right. Things change in instant. Travel agencies are dying, newspapers are dying, the list goes on and on. The same old tactics will not carry you for years and years anymore!

      It wasn't very long ago that all you had to do was build a product and buy a bunch of TV commercials to get rich. Those days are long over. How long do you think you'd last now if that were your only strategy?

      SEO is here to stay, as are social media and other forms of marketing. But in a few years, the key will be something else and we all have to follow that or be left behind!

      Great topic to bring up.
