6 Tips For Business SuccessWritten by Raymond Johnston Jr
Learning to make money on internet can be a very difficult task. There are so many different people telling you how to be successful, and majority of them are still struggling to make a buck.From many years in advertising business, I learned one very important thing. Making a business a success is not an overnight task. Many clients came to me thinking that I could write an ad campaign that would turn their business into an instant success. Fact is, I can probably write a campaign to sell anything you have. However, that alone will not make your business successful. Your business success is going to eventually depend on type products that you offer and/or service that you provide. As I stated, I can write a campaign to sell anything but if that product is worthless, your next product is going to be very difficult to sell. If you have decided to jump into internet marketing arena, here are a few things that could help you be more successful. 1. Choose Your Products Carefully - Don't just sell a product or service because you can. Check them out before you dive in to offering them with your name attached. Remember your reputation is on line and making a few dollars now is not worth long term damage that can occur. Choose carefully and remember, you want to sell something that people will be happy with. If you get reputation of being associated with good products, you have won half battle. 2. Make Your Product Valuable - You are going to read 100 times a day that best way to make money on internet is to have your own product. Make sure it is of high quality when you do it. Do not sacrifice quality just to get a product on market. I know plenty of people who make a very nice living on net without their own product. Yes, in time, your own product will be beneficial but don't rush it. 3. Provide Excellent Service - There are a lot of people trying to make a living on internet. No matter what you are selling, there are others selling same product or something similar. Providing your customers with high quality service is one of ways that you can distinguish yourself from rest. Go that extra mile for your customers. If you want to build a successful business, nothing can help you more than happy customers.
| | How You Can Be An All Star MarketerWritten by Dave Cole
In a very special All Star baseball game, my son, Karl was selected to play against an All Star team from Japan.This game featured a team of best players from south - western Pennsylvania to play against a team of best players from Japan. The game kicked off 2001 Pony League World Series. Our team had so many pitchers that each boy was allowed to throw 1 inning. Karl pitched 6th inning for us and was only pitcher team from Japan didn't score on. Of course our boys lost game to an almost professional team, but it was a wonderful experience for all. Quite an honor just to be chosen and it was a day they will remember for rest of their lives. There was a reason why Karl was chosen. He had proven himself to be a very good ball player in our previous All Star tournament play. At plate he had a batting average of .400 and he was our team's leading pitcher giving up only 2 earned runs with an Earned Run Average of 1.08. Pitching in regular season he gave up a grand total of 2 hits the entire season and allowed zero earned runs to cross plate. For last 3 years almost 75% of batters he has gotten out have come from strikeouts. But, this article is not about his accomplishments, it is about struggles and hard work he went through to get there. Friends, as a baseball coach I want you to know this: Baseball players are made - not born. As an online marketer, I want you to know this: Online marketers are made - not born. Back when Karl was 9, he had a great desire to become a pitcher. We set up a special area in our barn where we could practice. Every night we would be out there working for endless hours on his throwing mechanics. He threw me thousands upon thousands of pitches and we learned from every pitch.
