Internet Marketing for the Newbie doesn't have to be a
discouraging experience. Getting your product in front of an
audience can be somewhat of a daunting task. But remember this.
The internet marketing tactics used by the gurus are available
to you also.
 
Set out the goals for your business clearly. Where would you
like for your business to be in six months? How about one year?
2 years? How about 5?
 
Nail your goals down for the specific time periods. Take your
time with this one. The internet has been here long before you
came aboard. It will still be here when your plans are set.
 
Break the big goals down into bite sized manageable chunks.
Monthly goals, weekly goals, daily goals. Doing it this way
chops the mountain down to your size.
 
A guru said, "learn to climb the hill first, then you can
tackle the mountain." Daily successes are always important to
your forward progress.
 
Always check to see whether your small victories are moving you
toward your goal.
 
Stay to your plan. Stay focused. That's were victory lies. This
type of consistency will bring you in sight of your six month
goal. Then your one year goal, and so on.
 
Achieving your daily goals is like pouring fuel onto a fire.
Your desire and motivation to succeed is fired up by your small
victories. All internet marketing newbies should cherish these
victories.
 
Are you adamant about selling your own product? Good for you.
But in the early goings, go specific. Unsure about your final
product? Dig deeper. Focus even narrower. Another guru said,
"find a niche market that is one inch wide and one mile deep."
 
For instance, I noticed men starting to wear two-tone shoes
from the 50's. Personally, I like the style. If your product is
men's shoes, you may want to consider drilling deeper and
selling men's shoes from the 50's.
 
Start an ezine. Show your potential customers what you know
about the shoe from the 50's. Teach them how to care for that
particular shoe. Become an expert on that shoe. Make up your
own classy name for the shoe. Just for fun, "Ritzy Shoes."
Sound bad? Okay.but you get what I mean.
 
Write articles. Give tips on the best way to get rid of scuff
marks. Point those articles to your optin page. Capture their
email addresses. Write up a free report about the history of
these "Ritzy Shoes."
 
Stay busy and focused on your niche. Branch out when you can to
shoes of the 70's. Call them the "Ritzy Don Shoe." Show that
they are from your stable of unique shoes.
 
If the 70's don't work out as well? Fine. Take the slam. Don't
rule out the ladies! They love shoes too. Just don't make
excuses for the 70's failure. Learn from it. Move on. Believe
in yourself. Haven't you bought yourself this far? Believe that
you can go farther, and you will.
 
Belief without proper action though is futile. For instance,
you desire to make a lot of money on the internet right? So why
do you spend your money frivolously? That action does not line
up with your goal of making a lot of money.
 
You can believe you will make money on the internet quick and
fast with your product. But I don't think you should embrace
that belief.
 
History shows us that's not normal. Set up challenging but
reasonable goals for yourself. Make sure they are well measured
too.


My belief is that it's always special to do what you're
passionate about. If you can do it on the internet,
congratulations! Your pot of gold may be in the distance.
 
For ten years I was in a career that I was supremely passionate
about. I told my wife not to tell my boss this, but I would do
it for free. Of course she thought I was losing it.
