Brilliant Idea For You!

7 replies
Just recently I was looking at job websites.

There is a massive amount of both online and offline companys seeking talented people to work for them doing things like, selling online ad space, content writing and editing, seo, ppc, social media and selling site and hosting services.

Making money online is not as easy as everyone says. Why dont you try your hand at working for an online based company first. You will learn the insides of a corporate online machine, make friends and contacts within the industry which is probably one of the most important things in any venture and you will be able to connect with paying customers that you just might need when you leave the business.

And from experience ( i sold avdertising for yellowpages.com.au ) some of these people in these companies have no idea about online marketing, most wouldnt know how to explain seo and have never even created an adwords campaign. You could be seen as an expert by these companies simply by walking in and talking about what you know or have read about here. The bottom line is they see online marketing as a job, where as most people here including YOU, see this as a passion!

Go on, give it a go. Look for a job in the online marketing and sales sector.

  • You'd be even better off finding a position where your boss will teach you seo in exchange for your services. All the writers I hire for instance are forced to learn Seo or else their content won't get approved.

      Exactly, it would be more or less a paid internship where you're paid to learn valuable IM skills that you can use later on. It's not a bad route to take if you're able to find such a gig while you're still in the beginning stages of IM. You'd be essentially paid to do something you're passionate about, instead of slaving away at some nondescript job that you have no interest in, just to make enough money to pay the bills.

    experience really matters a lot whether its online or offline business.

    before spending handful of money in online marketing campaigns, i second the idea of knowing the insights first, so that nobody will be able to rip you!

    When we work & join some big ventures we came to know of many interesting facts such as: what's their income source, what niche spends a lot on online marketing campaigns and all those useful figures
