What are the benefits of Internet marketing?

13 replies
This may be a very ordinary question. Yet I want to know the different answers from the IMs here. What exactly do you think is the best advantage of Internet marketing? I think the best benefit from IM consists in getting to know the pulse of the buyers across the Internet.

    Being able to make a full time income working less hours, and most importantly being able to work everywhere in the world with just my laptop and an internet connection.

    Plus the sky is the limit when it comes to how much money you can make so that's another advantage.

    The only disadvantage is you sometimes feel lonely because you are alone, at least at home where you work.

      Quickness...you can try something, tweak, pivot, try something else all incredibly quickly.

      Think about the old days when you ordered an ad in the yellow pages...it took weeks to place the ad, and then it sat there for a year till the next edition of the phone book came out again. And there was nothing you could do to test, change, tweak, etc. And heaven forbid if there was a typo!

      Now you can run an ad online, see if it's working in minutes, tweak it, change it, and roll it out as quickly as you can type. It's great!

    The beautiful part about internet marketing is that you can build your business from a laptop and work anytime you want and from anywhere.

    Everyone has their own goals and why they got into this industry. Some people want to make enough money to pay for a car loan. Others want to be able to quit their jobs.

    What I love about the internet is that you can make sales or recruit other marketers into MLM and still not deal with face to face meetings, calling people, going to weekly meetings, and begging people to join your team.

    The answer should not be "money"

    If it is, those internet marketers are not the ones who are TRULY happy. I'm sure many beginners will disagree greatly, but when money starts to come in and you have not much but, all the shiny expensive things you buy will not bring you real happiness.

    To me, internet marketing provides you with an unbelievable lifestyle. You get to experience real freedom of life because you get to work from anymore in the world! Not many professions can say that.

    With that freedom, you have the ability to discover true happiness by having the time to build up your relationships, your health, and discovering what your true purpose is in life.

    My 2 cents

    The answer should not be "money"
    I understand what you mean, but unfortunately people turn to the internet because they are having money problems, or lost a job, and become easy prey for scammers.

    In a perfect world money should never be an issue, but most of the time, it is. I agree though, once you do start making money, the freedom is an unbelievable experience

    I think money is a great motivator though. Some people measure their success by how much they earn. Some see it as a number, others a way to survive, but wanting more money is another way of saying you're working towards a better life.

    Mmmmm...
    1) Work from home in your PJ's
    2) Being able to generate income with the push of a button.
    3) Taking long vacations with your Millionaire IM friends.
    4) Being your own boss without any of the problems faced by small business owners in the real world.
    5) Only having to work 2-3 hours a week and still being able to earn a six figure income online.
    6) Having a laugh at those people who are working a 9-5 for a boss, if only they knew how easy it is to make a bundle online, suckers.




    All :rolleyes: of course....

    The freedom it provides is by far the best benefit. Being able to choose your own working hours and taking a holiday whenever it suits you.
