Your
Marketing Plan!
If
you don't have a Marketing PLAN, you need one! You cannot just build a website
and expect to own a profitable online business - You absolutely have to put
some time into implementing a serious marketing strategy! Here are a dozen marketing
tactics to consider:
- Networking
Email Discussion
Groups, Safelists and Discussion Boards are a great place to meet potential
clients! Join the conversations, use proper ‘netiquette’, and
include a professional and compelling signature line with every post!
- Press
Release
Submitting a Press Release, both online
and offline, can earn your website some serious exposure! Is your product
or service unique? Do you have an interesting story to tell, or something
newsworthy related to your business? See: Press Release Templates & Examples

- E-books
Ebooks can provide the
Internet marketer one of the best promotional tools online. With its vast
variety of uses, just one quality ebook development
and distribution can produce an on going viral marketing tool that will work
24 hours a day, seven days a week and multiply itself by leaps and bounds.
Your ebook can literally be viewed by millions simply
by giving it away. See: http://www.webservicenetwork.com/articles/ViralMarketingEbook.htm

There are many ebook design books available online that tell you how to create
an ebook, but I don't know of any product that actually provides you with
a complete start up kit to ensure your success -- except Ebook
Starter. ANYONE can create their own profitable ebook(s) with this
program!
- Start
Your Own Affiliate Program
Do you
need a fast-moving, high-sales Affiliate Program for your product? An Affiliate
Program puts thousands of people to work for you as your Personal Sales Team
- and you don't have to pay them until they make a sale! My personal recommendation
would be to list your product at ClickBank
- it is by far one of the most popular programs to use, with an exceptionally
high success rate. Put them to work for you today & increase your sales
dramatically this year!
- Pop-up
Windows
Used correctly, Pop-up windows have proven to dramatically increase newsletter
subscribers. Place the script on the front page of your site, and be sure
to use cookies so that the window only opens once per
session for someone viewing your site. If your viewer subscribes, they are
then taken to a 'thank you' page for confirmation - this is a great place
to add links to make back-end sales! If you need the pop-up window code, email me and I will send it to
you!
- Testimonials
Publishing your clients personal testimonials
on your website increases your credibility to new clients. When you receive
a compliment from a client, ask permission to publish it on your site! Offering
them a link in return is a great incentive.
Writing Testimonials can be a Powerful Advertising Technique! Be sure to send
your testimonials to vendors when you are pleased with a product or service,
and include permission for them to publish it (along with your byline). You
can also publish Product Reviews and Testimonials in your own Newsletter or
on your website - using your affiliate links!
- Search
Engine Optimization
Make sure you have Meta Tags embedded in your web pages which include keywords
and a website description. Your content also matters! Make sure that the content
on your webpage is rich with keywords and relevant information…
also look at image names and “alt tags” - these can be used to
optimize your site for Search Engine placement as well! Be sure to exchange
links with reputable sites that are complimentary to your target market -
Getting listed on high traffic sites is a major plus! (Forget FFA and Free
Classifieds!). You might also consider Pay Per Click
options. See: http://www.webservicenetwork.com/payperclick.htm
"Overture.com
is still the granddaddy of the pay-per-click search engines, but its popularity
has driven up the cost of advertising there.
Minimum bids now start at 5 cents per visitor, there's a set-up fee of $50
(though it's applied to your click- throughs), and there's a monthly minimum
of $20.
Of course, with that said, if you can afford Overture , it's still the best
choice for driving targeted traffic to your site."
- Create
Your Contact Lists
Consider everyone that you know, that you have done business with in the past,
or that has requested information from you. Send an email out to your contacts,
and invite them to view your new website, subscribe to your newsletter, etc.
DO NOT continue to send email - it might be considered "spam"
- just a friendly invitation or announcement would be advised.
You might also consider the "Follow Up" approach. Example:
"Hello, we haven't spoke in awhile. How are things going with _____ ?"
etc etc
- and end your Follow-Up email with a compelling
Signature Line!
- Online Auction Sites (eBay)
Listing products on the online auction sites is also a great marketing
tactic! While you cannot blatantly promote your website on most auction sites,
you can create a Profile (or About Me) page and add that link
in your auction description. Also, if you are selling products that you offer
on your website, this is a great opportunity to reach a wider market and gain
new contacts. Don't Forget your Signature Lines in
the correspondence with potential bidders – along with you Follow Up
emails to winning bidders!
