Best Advise For Newbies
Hi -
I want to share some thoughts in regard to starting online marketing and the big problem I ran into as a newbie, in an effort to others avoid the same (For the veteran marketers, please forgive this simple post).
When I started this internet marketing business 9 months ago I jumped straight into Clickbank and tried to promote several products using e-mail marketing. There was one big exclusion to my understanding that is just so obvious now, that I almost quit because I was getting nowhere. While all of the products were cool and all of the promises of money flowing in sounded great, this just did not happen.
The one principle that I did not understand for several months was that I needed to build MY OWN LIST. Although there are steps to succeeding in the business, I hope that not every newbie goes through what I did. Once I figured this out, I stopped for weeks and put some thought into this business.
So here are the 4 steps to creating long term success, and although simple, the fundamentals are the most important thing to every aspect in life:
Build A Website >
Give Away A Free Gift (eBook, video training, etc...) >
Build My List >
and finally, Market and Promote To My List.
All that was lacking was my education, understanding an implementation of how to do these things. I then researched and found great teaching sources.
Bottom line, as a newbie, one should not be led down the road of promoting a product without the tools of building your own list....this is the only avenue for online marketing success in the long run.
