How to keep a confident mindset for marketing?

by Rhiannon Beckham

This is something that's been troubling me a lot lately, as I've transitioned from solely running my own niche sites, to now teaching beginners how to make money online.

I am far too hesitant I'm finding, and would like to know your masterful advice on how to keep a good, strong frame of mind when selling people on what you offer them. I am so afraid of coming across as one of the many scammers out there, and it's holding me back, I know it..

If one isn't competitive in the marketing industry, you're toast! I don't want to be toast! I have so much to share, and I want to see other people succeed, it's self gratifying and I'm ok with that. I want to know that I've literally changed peoples lives and gave them the freedom of being wealthy..

buuuuut if I don't scrap this insecure headspace I'm not even going to be able to reach anyone let alone change their lives!

yaknowwhatImean?

what's your mantra? How do you stay assured?

    "Have confidence in your unique value"

    Perhaps it's the copywriter in me, but I'm always looking for what makes a market, or marketer, unique

    Approach marketing with curiosity, determination, and interest. You will run into potholes. You will have moments of success. But whatever happens, keep a positive mind while doing it That will keep you afloat no matter what you come across.

    Let me say it again: If you're not enjoying what you're doing, you'll burn out quickly. So don't fear failure Just enjoy the journey.

    If you do come across scammers or people giving you a hard time, chalk it up to experience and keep going! If you get to the lowest point, you can only go up!

      Wanting to help people succeed is a very good thing to want in your life. Their change is their responsibility, you can help then but ultimately they have to want to do it. And they are really the only ones who can.

      I have heard there are some folks who want somebody else to do everything for them, but that is no way for them to become wealthy or to bring any kind of success into their lives.

      Products that sell the completely done for you promise never seem to bring great value into the lives of those who need it the most. And often wind up sucking great amounts of of money and energy from the lives of the people they were supposed to help.

      You sound like you have a great viewpoint on bringing value to others. You do it through your niche sites, there is no reason to think that you won't bring value to people's lives when you are helping them.

      You already know this is what is important in your life. And you cannot control how other people think about you. So stop wasting the energy you could be using to help someone by worrying about what some unknown folks think about you.

      Well, at least that works for me.

      Please kindly consider yourself Gibbs Slapped.

      And get on with the good you are doing.

    First you need to make sure that you have purchased or used the product that you are marketing. If it is not a reputable product, DON"T SELL IT. If it is a good product for you, you know have a personal tesitmony and attachment to your product. People can tell if you are throwing them some crazy scheme or if you are serious about what you are telling them.

    Second you need to establish yourself. Don't jump straight into the marketing of your product. You have to have some sort of foundational presence before you gain the respect needed to be a success.

    Third when you start marketing you need to stay consistent and dedicated EVERY single day to achieve your goals working towards your goals.

    Fourth you need to focus on one or two marketing methods and master them. After 3-4 weeks evaluate your results and see if you need to change something.

    Fifth if you do not have good results in a marketing method, do not make huge changes. Usually all you have to make is a small change to an add or heading and everthing changes.

    Sixth don't get frustrated and disappointed. Every has to go through some type of learning curves but you need to follow the pros and copy some of their methods. (Not their work).

    Good Luck!

      What if you know you offer a good product, but your a shy sort who is not used to talking yourself up much?
      Is it possible to overcome shyness and be successful in marketing your product?
      If so, does anyone have any tips for overcoming self consciousness and shyness?

    Thank you all for your replys..

    Valtan, you kinda hit a spot with that one, that SHOULD be enough for me, I know that what I'm trying to do for people is legit, I know my intentions are good.. That should be enough for me.

    And Jmichaelz, I just like everything you said. =)

    **I don't always make it back to check on threads, so if you'd like me to elaborate feel free to PM me, I try to make sure to check my inbox regularly and am happy to help..

    I wouldn't have pulled a $9k week w/Teespring etc without the help of others, so it's time to pay it forward.
    I can make a little room in my life for that. ;)
