Trends aren’t just restricted to physical advertising, they can be observed in internet marketing as well. You can exploit these trends to attract more customers and gain more revenue. But just like real world trends, if you don’t jump on these online trends quickly enough, you’ll find yourself left behind. Currently, social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace and Friendster are among the major marketing trends.

Know how internet marketing trends can help you to raise the profit with social media marketing.

Users can create their profiles free of cost and update their hobbies, personal and professional details, etc on almost all of these networks. It is also possible for users to post pictures and videos on most of these. Searching people and adding them as friends can be done once the profile creation is complete.

The whole point of these networking sites is to get in contact with friends, family, and, sometimes, total strangers. What really piques our curiosity is the complete stranger’s part. It’s possible for you to reach millions of people by creating a profile for your business and adding people as your friends. Unique profiles can be created for bands, authors and filmmakers on some of these sites, for example, MySpace.

Looking for your profile and adding you as a friend becomes much easier with this. It is good to be added by people but take heed that you do not appear as spam when you invite people to be friends. There are enough fake spam profiles on these sites that they’ve all cracked down on people sending out mass invites.

Make it a point to ask only those people who are eager to see your offering. The use of keywords is also one more internet marketing trend. The latest craze these days is Search engine optimization, or SEO. It involves using keywords, or words that describe your site and your products/services, a certain number of times on your website and in your site’s titles and metadata. Use of these keywords repeatedly will make your site a lot more interesting to search engines such as Google and Yahoo. The premise is that your site gets lesser views and business when it is listed on the third or fourth page of search results than it would if it was listed on the first page.

This is obviously not true all the time. If your page doesn’t include what the user is looking for, they aren’t going to buy anything from you. Still, there is merit to the part of the theory that says you’ll get more traffic. A tad bit of research on SEO will enable you to optimize your website yourself; at the same time there are numerous companies that are readily available who will get the job done. Be judicious now: the one thing you wouldn’t wish for is a person who writes text for your web page that is all keywords.

In case your page gives the impression of being flat to a normal human, it is likely that they will look right through it in support of a page that does. You website can get loads of additional hits, if you concurrently put to use, the social networks and SEO systems. The importance of getting people to your website cannot be undermined by the fact that hits don’t always convert over to dollars. Abiding by these internet marketing trends is a tactic that will ensure a rise in hits, usually translating to a boost in business.

I have joined an Internet shopping club that allows me to save money on my purchases throughout the year.  The shopping clubs I am most familiar with normally charge a fee to be a member.  I have seen clubs charge $50 per year and then there is club that I’ve seen advertised on television that is charging a minimum of $3000 so you can save money with them. 

My club is free and available in every country in the world.  I get a   FREE lifetime shopping membership with no minimum purchases.  I can shop for myself or I can also earn referral fees on the purchases anyone else I refer to the club.  How can I go wrong? 

The Internet Shopper 

I didn’t realize how much I shopped online until I became a member of this club.  Because they have the same stores I normally purchase from, I did move some of my off-line shopping to the Internet with additional savings.  I normally get free shipping and I’ve even found one store that does not charge me tax.

I might as well get something back when I shop.  Why wouldn’t I take advantage of the what the club’s buying power can do for me? 

Even if you aren’t a big Internet shopper, why not take advantage of

the savings available to you?  With no minimum purchases and the free membership, how can you go wrong?  As a friend of mine said, “It’s a no-brainer for me“.   How about you?

Website owners have found that they can increase their profits by eight times or more simply by using web based email marketing. It’s important to understand the typical buying cycle, the importance of follow up and how a back end increases your bottom line in order to understand how email marketing can affect your business.

Understand the Buying Cycle

The majority of  people  simply will not buy the first time they see your website. About 99% of your visitors will land on your website and leave without buying anything.

That doesn’t mean they weren’t interested in your product. It just means they weren’t interested right now. Or perhaps they just don’t trust you or know you enough yet.

Letting these people go is like letting 99% of your advertising dollars go to waste. Instead, to really maximize your profits you must learn to follow up and get sales from the remaining 99% who didn’t buy the first time around.

Follow Up for Major Sales Increase

But you still can turn 1% visitor into buyer by following up which is as much as 8% in the long run. That’s an 800% increase in revenue!

However, if you follow up then over time they’ll start to see that you’re a real business that will take care of their customers. They’ll begin to know and trust you.

You’ll also get your message in front of them at different points in their life, and you have a relatiionship with them when they are ready to buy.

Back End Is Importance to Your Bottom Line

Your real money is in your backend because these are the products and services they will see after a customer made their first order. Most business owners neglect this and focus only at front end sales.

Let’s say each month you make 30 sales at $100 for a total of $3,000. Most business owners would focus on getting those 30 sales to 40 sales.

Instead, a savvy business person would try and sell a $400 product to all 30 of those who bought. If about 20% take them up on it, that’s a $2,400 bump right off the bat .

Then a savvy business owner might try and sell a $1,000 product. With the right marketing, about 10% will buy. That’s an extra $3,000.

Finally, a savvy business person will likely try and implement some kind of membership program. At $97 a month , if it’s tied into the original product about 50% will sign up for about 4 months. That’s (15 times $97 times 4 equals) and extra $5,820 a month.

That’s an extra $11,220 on top of the $3,000 you’re already making from just 30 sales a month. As you can tell, selling more to your existing customers is much more profitable than trying to get more new customers.

The best way to sell more to existing customers is through web based email marketing. It’s the only free way to consistently follow up.

You now know the how the typical buying cycle works, you understand the importance of follow up and you know how much a good back end can boost your business. Apply this and web based email marketing to help your business explode its profits.

What is the most successful online attraction marketing method you can use to succeed with your Internet network marketing business?

Some people  would have said the smooth sales pitch or the loud sales blurb. Well, that’s okay for some but in this business they don’t come anywhere near the simple and proven system of teaching. Teaching has been the one method used since we first walked the planet that has been able to move people.
Internet Attraction Marketing

So why is teaching so powerful? In the Internet attraction marketing model, you need to earn the right to be able to tell a prospect about what you have to offer. You do that by teaching them what you know and creating trust with them.

So how can you teach? One of the most powerful ways is with attraction marketing articles. Articles are the lifeblood of the internet and are the perfect vehicle to teach prospects and provide the solutions they are looking for. They have been written to create a relationship with the people reading them and to build trust.

And the best way to build trust with someone is to teach them what you know. Have you looked at most of the successful people online? What’s the one thing they are doing that those failing aren’t?

Teaching!

It could be they are teaching others how to make money, how to be healthy, how to grow vegetables, how to find a date…just about anything you can think of. At the center of just about any successful promotional material whether it’s to sell a product or generate a lead is usually an educational or an instruction of some sort that is offered to people as an exchange. This could be either for their information or their money.

Teach First, Sell Later…

In my opinion, getting their information first up is probably a better course of action that just getting their money once and then never seeing them again.

But the message here especially if you’re serious about succeeding with your attraction marketing or branding yourself as an authority within your niche, is to teach first and sell second. When you teach right there is almost no need to dust off the sales pitch and use it.

Those that have recognized this and applied it in general have become successful. So why aren’t more people using it. Well, it’s one of the drawbacks of  Internet attraction marketing if there are any. That’s that it simply takes time to develop trust with a prospect.

Most people don’t have that much patience, so they bounce around from one opportunity to the next hoping for the get rich quick fix. It never happens.

When the owner of an MLM company is structuring his/her compensation plan, do you think they count on the retail sales distributors provide to keep their doors open? 

Most MLM’s are structured so that the distributors who are on autoship are the people who are counted on to pay for the business expenses. 

While every company “needs” consumer sales to survive, MLM’s themselves don’t need many.  Consumer sales are “dessert” so to speak. 

As an example: 

Monty is a business builder with XYZ company and has committed to a $250 monthly autoship order (which is about 5 months for the average consumer).  Once Monty places the order, he can either sell the products or keep them for his own personal use. 

This is actually a brilliant move because consumers are fickle.  The liklihood of them committing to $50 per month over a long period of time, much less $210 per month is extremely low (remember tax and s&h)  .

The network marketer is the entree and the consumer is the dessert!

One of the main differences between a blog and a static website is the way people are able to collaborate with your content. With a static site it’s just people reading words on a page.

When you have a blog they can explore and even comment back! You want to get that sort of interactive spirit going so you can create a loyal readership with your blog.

That doesn’t mean it’s easy! There are literally millions of blogs out there all vying for the attention of your audnce. It can be even harder to grab people’s attention when you’re just getting started.

The bad news is that it’s going to take some work and dedication to build up a loyal readership. The good news is that it’s very possible, and even fun, to put these things into place. Follow these rules and you’ll have the kind of repeat visitors and fans that really make blogging worth your while.

A Few Ideas For Great Blogs

Write Great Content

If your content stinks there is no way people are going to come back and read again! They’ll just click away, never to return. If you write great content, however, you’re sure to get some fans. Not everyone considers themselves to be a good writer. That’s OK! No one expects you to have perfect grammar and spelling. It’s far more important that you write interesting content that stands out from the crowd. Give your real thoughts and opinions on things that matter to the audience.

When you write great content, not only will you have people who want to visit your blog, but they will also link to you! You know that more linking means higher rankings in Google. That’s definitely a great thing that will expand your readership base to levels you couldn’t even imagine when you got started.

Leave the Comments Open

It’s amazing - but there are bloggers out there who close their comments! While it can be a lot of work to try and get rid of those spam comments, you’re also missing out on a big part of what being a blogger is all about. You need to let the audience write back and speak their mind too. People don’t just want a website they can read anymore, they want one they can add their “2 cents” to. So, leave your comments open and listen to them. It doesn’t matter if people always agree with you or not (they won’t!), you’ll get a much larger and interested following.

Guest Blog

The chances are good that there are some blogs out there that are very well-liked by the people in your niche. These blogs probably get a lot of traffic and a lot of respect. It’s time to get your name and website out there in front of this audience! All you need to do is write to the owner and say that you’d like to write some guest posts. They may be more than happy to take a break from their own posting and to give you a link back to your blog. This will not only give you link juice for the search engines, you’ll also win some of their loyal readers who are interested in what you have to say.

Learning how to create a loyal readership with your blog is incredibly important if you want your blog to thrive. It’s all about the people, and making sure they are aware of your blog and love your content.

Would you like to get lucky tonight?, download the Free E-book at this link “Are You Getting Lucky Tonight?”

As I mentioned on the last post, every single site I’ve been on that has Internet marketing tools say THEY have the very best material for you in every way. They all say the same thing, so how do you as a new marketer determine what is right for you?

A rating of the material with regards to necessary prerequisite skills would be helpful. Think of the wide variety of Web Site builder programs for example. Some are very “plug and play”, but will allow a pre-determined amount of templates or you can create custom web sites with very advanced programs.

How about a sample of “what you get” so that you can determine if it will work for you.? Maybe they could put an excerpt of the Internet Marketing Tools available on-line for you to see how they write, the topics they will cover, the depth of the information?

You can type in “the author’s name“ or “name of material” and “forum”.  This may bring up some discussion of the material for sale.  Having said that, remember people are more likely to post a negative comment before a positive one.

You also need to read all comments for a fair description of the material.  Maybe the network marketing training was too technical for Jack S., but great for the advanced user. Possibly the material was written only for beginners and that’s why Jodi M. was unhappy.  You can usually tell a fair review verses an emotional rant.

Talk to other people in your industry and see what Internet marketing tools they might recommend. You might be surprised at the number of helpful network marketing tips you get … for free. Ultimately you must decide if this expert fits with your needs. Is there a match?

There is little doubt network marketers are your number one target market when promoting your network marketing opportunity. Why?

Network marketers already know the business, how it works, and more importantly, what’s required. Network marketers are people who are normally looking for a better way of life.

But just pitching to MLMers the old school way won’t cut it. Don’t be surprised if you get run out of town just putting it mildly. Targeting network marketers directly is frowned upon and worse still, it’s spells desperation.

When we say targeting network marketers for your home-based business opportunity, we are talking about putting your offer in front of people who actually want to receive it. Can you see the difference? It’s huge. Instead of harassing and chasing people down, branding yourself and putting your message in the middle of a hungry crowd will create magic as far as lead generation is concerned.

As far as network marketing tips are concerned, avoiding a desperate demeanor on the phone is high on the list. For example, many new recruits are so excited about speaking to their first prospect they already have them recruited and placed in their organization before they’ve even spoken with them.

Another network marketing tip for you is to never ask your prospect to join your business because you’re in the best company which has the best products, life-changing in fact, and they have the best compensation plan bar none. Most everyone believes this about their company, and most companies have some very good products.

The prospect will see a desperate individual trying to sign them up at any cost. In fact, you’ll come across as having no interest in their needs, only yours.

Today’s network marketing tip is to make sure you put your prospect’s needs ahead of your own.  How can you help them reach their goals?  Can you help them? 

 Be honest with them about what your company has to offer and let them decide if it works for them.  Be sure to offer your readers something of value.  I offer my readers a Free Shopping Membership to my online shopping mall.  There is no obligation except to save a little money youthey shop.
