Internet marketing

Internet marketing and running an Internet business is a fantastic way of life if you do it right. The net simply works better than traditional media, but it is new, so you will have to use some imagination to envision your role and character online. There are two basic attitudes towards online marketing: The Silent Marketer - gets sales directly from websites, newsgroups, BBS's, and email without any direct interaction with the customer.

You get the customers coming to you. The Mouth Piece - gets sales from active participation in newsgroups, mailing lists, etc. (i.e. stating your opinion and helping others with advice in forums, thereby building a relationship with each potential customer individually). I prefer the silent method, but have done both, and of course you can do a combination of both if you so choose. I prefer the silent method because it requires no major time commitment, if you plan on giving advice or participating in discussions.

You have to invest a lot of time to consistently read and post appropriately every couple of days. With the silent method, sales letters and websites are fully automated so you can concentrate on bringing people to the site and let the automated order system take over. There is no direct contact with the customer (as in email or phone correspondence/questions) in closing the sale - the computer does it all! The fastest way to start and promote your business product or service online

What do you think is the fastest way to start and promote your business product or service online. I have learned over many agonizing years of expensive trial and error, that the fastest and easiest way is to. model someone who is already successful. How can you convince someone who is wildly successful to take their extremely valuable time to tell you and show you exactly what steps they take ... the techniques they use ... and to tell you what works and doesn't work for them Why would they provide you with complete information about their email lists and the detailed results of the successful promotions they have run.
