Is An Online Business Better Than A Physical Shop?

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

I have just posted an article that addresses this topic on my site. So, is having an online business better than a brick and mortar one? Well, it really depends on the context. I don’t think we can do away with physical shops that easily Internet or No Internet. There will always be a place for brick and mortar businesses and God bless them. But if you are just starting starting an online business may be the key to your success. Well for one, you are not going to have to fork out a mighty investment.

Let’s take a look at some of the other advantages you can realize with your online business.

1. With proper, effective marketing techniques, you can sell your goods to millions of people. The brick and mortar shop doesn’t have this potential.

2. You can establish affiliate relationships with other businesses, advertising their related, but not competing, products and thus expand your inventory – and income through commissions, which can be substantial, depending on the product. For example, if you establish an online gift shop which consists of handmade art objects, you might sell any number of books that provide background on the particular art form, historical notes and the like. Generally, you can expect anywhere from 15-35% of the cost of the book, with your affiliate stocking and shipping the item. The brick and mortar business concept requires that you stock, track and ship from your shop, increasing your cost of doing business. The online business model thus creates passive income…

Need Help Marketing Your Online Business…Online?

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009

Do you have an online business? Maybe you are looking to start an online business,either way you will need to learn how to get your business in front of your targeted audience. In this article I want to give you a few suggestions on how you can go about successfully marketing your online business.

The first suggestion I have is a great way to generate repeat traffic and you can run it right on your website. You could set up a forum or discussion board on which different topics of importance to your customers are listed. People will want to come back again and again to read what others have to say. You will need to invest some time in moderating your forum.

Not only will your normal traffic increase, but your forum will also help your natural search engine traffic in getting your page indexed as well as provide some back link opportunities, which will help in marketing your online business. An added benefit of the traffic is that you will be developing relationships with your members, and when they are ready to buy, they will buy from you because you have already developed a connection with them. You can then continue to develop a stable customer base.

The second way to create marketing for your online business is to give away free products or services. One note on this strategy, your free product or service must be of real value. If the customer does not see any value in your free gift. You will get very little takers, even if it is free. The other thing to remember is to make sure you are getting the customer’s contact information so that you can send them information on your business product or service.

The last technique I want to discuss to help create marketing for your online business has to do with your sales copy. In other words the content of your website. By improving what is written on your website, you will be able to convert more of your traffic and this will have a direct impact on your bottom line. Do your research on how to write an effective sales copy.

Each of these three ways of creating marketing for an online business can be very effective. By taking the time to improve your website, you will find that this will have the greatest impact upon your bottom line of running a website and an Internet business. If your website does not run effectively and draw customers in, chances are your online business will fail.

Marketing your business online is very time consuming when you are trying to learn all the different online marketing techniques. You can simpfly all that by affiliating yourself with a program that takes you by the hand and teaches you step by step all the Internet marketing techniques. My partners and I are showing individuals just like you how to earn thousands of dollars a day marketing their own successful online business.

2. Getting the videos.

You can easily lift videos from other popular video sites. But there are also sites that allow you access to many of the popular funny videos which you can use. Many sites share with one another videos as well. So getting the videos to supply for your funny video website is relative easy.

3. Making the Money.

Making money off your site is going to consist of different forms income streams. From click on ad’s, banner advertising, and actual products which you can sell on your site and receive heavy commissions from.

Start up accounts at Google and yahoo for click on ad’s, and find internet products which will coincide with the type of videos you’ll be showing.

Once your site develops traffic, you can start to hit up larger business’s for banner ad’s which can pay very well. The combination of different income streams will bring in a steady income flow as long as your traffic is ramped up.

How To Make Money From Passions

To make money online many people jump right in before they are properly prepared. You know that to be a rocket scientist, a doctor, a brick layer, a construction worker, an office worker, a teacher there are prerequisites, things you must learn, before you can be successful, you don’t just jump right in unprepared.

The same applies to the Internet marketing industry even though there are unsavory people out there who’d have you believe it’s a “Walk in the Park” and requires no more than the belief that you can just do it.

And I’ll have to admit, it is a walk in the park compared to what you have to put up with in the working world punching a clock being a subordinate to someone who does not have your interests in mind, but there are still rules you have to follow and pitfalls you must avoid to actually make Internet marketing work for you.

Most people will not make a dime online and yet there are others who will make more in one month than most people make in a whole year. Why is that?

My answer begins with the age-old chicken or egg question, “what comes first the chicken or the egg”? Personally I vote for, well never mind, each argument you or I make comes back to the same old conclusion – I have no clue and I don’t think many of us do either.

But one thing I do have a clue about and know for sure is that to make money online you must first have Passion for the company products and/or service of any Internet business from which you expect to make money.

Passion in this sense simply means that you’ve researched and like the company and products or services. It is then that you translate that like (or Passion) into the education, excitement and work that usually accompany Passion.

I will have to say that many online entrepreneurs are so good at what they do that they ignore passion because they can sell anything. But I’m concerned about those of you who are not so knowledgeable at working an online business successfully.

Now, I’m not trying to make anyone believe that Passion is the only thing necessary. Because to be successful you must also have a good website, good marketing, widespread advertising, company support, effective keywords, and etc. Those things are often learned from the company you join – but sidestep Passion and you reduce your chances for success dramatically.

It therefore follows that, if you have no Passion for the company and the products and services provided by that company, again, you won’t attempt to do the work you are being taught.

Internet marketing work is typically not all that difficult or time consuming but it does take motivation caused by Passion to get you off and running with a sustained effort so that you won’t stumble.

You have a great resource in the Internet search engines to search about the Internet Marketing industry for business opportunities, USE IT!

Your research should uncover a company that you like and have confidence in. It should be solid, founded on great principles, and easy to understand with great products and services that are sell-able for which you can have Passion. If you don’t find it move on,
You can find the right opportunity containing the attributes identified above.

Comments like, well, that one sounds good and the compensation plan is excellent so I guess I’ll start that business – does not sound like a decision based on anything near Passion. And remember when you hear that an Internet “guru” does that, don’t be tempted, because as I said earlier they are experienced and can sell just about anything, without being Passionate about the company products and services.

Note: By the way it’s your goal to get to the point where you can sell about anything online. That end skill and goal is a worthy one indeed.

Remember, there are other steps you must make before you step into Internet Marketing but if you don’t first find the right company products and services to be passionate about, all of those other steps may just cause you a lot of frustration instead of bringing you great success.

Not being Passionate about a company and products and services that has market proof that it will sell is a pitfall you simply must avoid.
