Here it is my secret to success in Internet Marketing, you have to plan to succeed! That is all very well you will likely say, we are scarecly going to plan to fail, and yet over 90% of the people who start will fail. It really does not have to be this way as success is linked to the mathematics of the process not the skill levels or lack thereof of the marketers.
Of course with better skills you can increase conversion rates to a degree, but the bottom line is the statistics, and these are what make planning so important. You see the average marketer goes in unaware of the mathematics involved. If only one person in 1,000 will be interested in what you have to say you need to have 1,000 visitors before you get a conversion, and this is what you will get if you market to the general public.
Now you see what they are talking about when they saty market to a feeding crowd, if you research and find people who have a real interest in your niche then you can convert at maybe 10% or 1 in 10, this is going to require a lot less work right?
The next problem is that new marketers do not understand the process. They think that if they have a fabulous site it will convert, this is not so you need to get traffic. Traffic does not just grow on trees it has to be found and fought over, interested and held until conversion. This means that your signposts articles and backlinks etc. must all be well written and over deliver on relevant content. You need to rersearch and have your facts right and extol the benefits of the product to the potential buyer.
It is important to hold their interest right the way through the process, but to bear the immediate objective in mind at each stage of the process. The title has to catch their attention the first paragraph leads naturally to the second and so on right up to the call for action. If you understand the process and the objective it is much easier to lead the prospect towards the goal.
As we have seen the Internet Marketing Process is complex and a step by step process, within which there is complexity and yet it is fairly simple in concept. The biggest issue is the number of ways that we can arrive at a conclusion and the changing technology. These can scare the marketer in to the worst scenario of all inaction! What is required is action and plenty of it, given the numbers of visitors that are required to make a sale. Most marketers do not take enough action and often the actions they do take are ineffective. What they need is a helping hand and this is where my secret to success in Internet Marketing comes in. I have a source for plans that have helped me to get real success. Maybe they or something like it are what you need to finally find the success you are seeking?
