See two very bottom level examples.

(1)Jon Gales,repparttar owner ofrepparttar 105634 www.mobiletracker.net makes close to $5000 per month just by using Google adsense. Take notice, he is merely a happy go lucky child of 19 years.

(2)For small time people who want more sales to be generated for their small time business uses Google adwords and Froogle. Even if they do not any business product, they can sale someone else product and have a handsome money in exchange for working for someone else at their own home.

Does it make a company commercially viable? Do not ask me. Watch it.

Seth Gobin a well known online advertising consultant and former Yahoo employee, used to be dubious about Google’s prospect. Not anymore “ They have createdrepparttar 105635 first new and effective Ad medium in last 50 years. It’s brilliant” He says.

Napolean hill, author of Law of success state in his book,” No man can rise to fame and fortune without carrying others along with him. It is simply can not be done.”

It takes continuous hard work with great series of innovation in product designe, process innovation and marketing and a long period to reach ( in mature economy or market) where Google is today.

Google 6 year $321mn

EBay 9 year $322mn

Yahoo 10 year $260mn

Amazon 9 year $114mn

In his book “ The fortune atrepparttar 105636 Bottom of Pyramid” C.K. Prahalad state,”…..what is needed is a better approach to help poor, an approach that involves partnering with them to innovate and achieve sustainable win-win scenarios whererepparttar 105637 poor are actively engaged and atrepparttar 105638 same time,repparttar 105639 companies providing product and services to them are profitable.”

I accept common people on net are not poor. But see into deep meaning of C.K. Prahalad statement,”- ……whererepparttar 105640 poor are actively engaged and atrepparttar 105641 same time………..”. That’s what e-commerce model I am talking all about. They are not poor but they are active ready to change their buying behavior. Buying behavior change isrepparttar 105642 most awesome milestone still to reach inrepparttar 105643 e-commerce to really blast offrepparttar 105644 internet economy. According to Napolean Hill, you need to helprepparttar 105645 common internet folk to see what internet can do for them.

Gil Penchina, vice-president, eBay International state,” It’s all about getting more people onrepparttar 105646 system(eBay). People on net follow very simple system. They get online almost always because they want email, then they start reading news, then they shop. Once they value in shopping, they shop repeatedly. That’s when they realize they can sell too.”

By actively involving common folk they will get more trust into e-commerce. To achieve this amazing rate of growth, e-commerce community has to acceptrepparttar 105647 “inclusive Capitalism” approach. Common Internet people need to be given a big opportunity to tap intorepparttar 105648 awesome big time opportunity on internet. According to CK Prahalad, to tap into BOP segment “ Trust is prerequisite”. Big corporate or small one need to build this bridge of trust to tap into this big volume market segment.

In case of Google, it is famous for it unconventional approach and infamously trusted for unorthodox management approach of its founders Lary Page and Sergey Brin. Google just do not comprise on integrity for profit in its search results. Its user can always trust Google for its integrity to receive full support from Google for their small or big business.

Am I seem too madly in love with Google? Believe m, I am not alone.

The World Is Your Oyster

The global market for every type of product or service includes diverse cultural values. These values stem from environmental and sociological factors learned in childhood, one very good reason why we should not expect everyone inrepparttar world to react or respond identically to any given marketing approach. What motivates people in one country may well dorepparttar 105633 exact opposite in others. Some nationalities prefer to be informed in an educational way about products and left to make their own decisions, while others are more easily "sold" via hot buttons that inflame feelings like envy, greed orrepparttar 105634 need for material things. Indeed, some cultures would be offended byrepparttar 105635 mere mention of making a fortune asrepparttar 105636 leading reason to buy. If they are offended, they may not read further. Few things are more annoying to a nationalist in any country than enticements to buy products, which contain references to a culture with which he does not identify.

Although millions of teenagers aroundrepparttar 105637 world wearrepparttar 105638 same brand-name clothing and footwear, listen torepparttar 105639 same music and watchrepparttar 105640 same (albeit dubbed) television shows,repparttar 105641 reasons they do so andrepparttar 105642 marketing that influenced their decisions to buy these goods and watch these shows were tailored to their cultures, i.e. U.S. teens who wear Nikes are likely to have been influenced more by Nike advertisements endorsed by U.S sports stars, while French Nike wearers were more likely enticed byrepparttar 105643 individualistic, "Just do it" slogan.

With a move toward more globalization, copy aimed at a culture other than one you know, requires extensive research before a word is written. Every possible negative nuance, dual meaning, ambiguity or colloquial expression must be eliminated before sales copy is introduced to your market.

There Is No Substitute for First-Hand Knowledge While it's not always necessary to be in front of your client to win business, Becky Baker tells us "Many clients do want to meet you face to face initially, but once you have proven yourself as a dependable writer, they will usually be very loyal."

One thing you cannot do viarepparttar 105644 web is to completely knowrepparttar 105645 "feel" of a country or its people. You won't fully understandrepparttar 105646 scope of cultural effects and situations without having been there to see with your own eyes. For example, you can never really appreciate overcrowding and poverty until you visit a place like Mumbai, India where severe poverty is endemic.

If you are trying to convey a message to reachrepparttar 105647 heart of an issue, i.e., a charity or a cause to reduce population growth, seeingrepparttar 105648 problems first hand will make a difference to what you write. The same idea applies to travel writers who must visitrepparttar 105649 places they write about to capture character and portray an accurate picture ofrepparttar 105650 destination they are selling.

To capitalize on opportunities: Be aware of growth areas that presentrepparttar 105651 most market potential. Research, research, research Subscribe to niche newsletters Find a good editor in your target country. Retainrepparttar 105652 core values of your client's product, but adjustrepparttar 105653 message to suitrepparttar 105654 local market. Do not try to be "all things to all people." Concentrate your efforts on niche marketing. How many times have you seenrepparttar 105655 phase "write about things you know about?" Wherever possible, go torepparttar 105656 country you are attempting to capitalize on or specialize in and takerepparttar 105657 time to understandrepparttar 105658 culture andrepparttar 105659 people before writing for or about them. The global market is enormous. In terms of opportunitiesrepparttar 105660 world is your oyster.
