Unfortunately, like a great deal of things in life, it really is way too easy to get overwhelmed with all the stuff you may need to learn to be successful marketing online. In the event you are not careful you will find yourself jumping from the-latest “you beaut” product to the next and eventually find yourself burnt out with information overload and nothing other than a full hard drive of digital products to show for your efforts.
Here are my five online marketing tips for a beginner.
Locate a marketing product or system that interests you and stick with it. Don’t worry most systems will produce some results. Cancel all of your e-mail subscriptions whenever they distract you from your work or even worse tempt you into trying something else.
Take your period to learn your chosen marketing product or system as it’s going to be the best grounding for your future marketing ventures. Stick with it and resources don’t go from one system to the next because you are not only a millionaire in 7 days or what ever the system promised within the sales letter. Short of a big lottery win this rarely happens especially to beginners.
Don’t just read the manual or watch the videos but take action. Stop reading the manual or stop the video and do those steps you read about or watched before you decide to go on to the next step. OK you website looks ugly or your new eBook has numerous blank pages but remember you are not going to be a success overnight, so do not anticipate to be.
Write down what you need to do to ensure that you know what you did when something works then you may very well do it again. Your notes will likely help work out where you went wrong and how you may fix it. And also your notes are original content so can form the beginnings of a future ebook, articles or video. OK back to reality that dream can wait.
Create value in everything do by adding your ideas and original content. Step back and ask yourself will you read it or buy it. If somebody buys a product they’re going to not like it if it really is just has a whole new title and shiny new digital cover and they have read it a dozen times before. This may to be acceptable for giveaway products but it creates more value if you have something unique to giveaway as well.
