subject: How Not to Succeed Online - Don't Develop a Campaign Marketing Strategy and Plan [print this page] I'm sure that you realize that if you want to build a house then you follow a set of blueprints. When you want to develop a business, you develop a strategy and plan. But with affiliate marketing, where you are marketing products of other people, to succeed online, develop a campaign marketing strategy and plan. And then stick to it. The biggest reasons people fail online with their marketing campaign strategies are: They Fail To Plan - If you fail to plan, plan on failing. It's that simple. They Lose Focus - It's like they have short-term memory loss and they're easily distracted by the latest guru's $1000 bell and whistle program. Only the whistles don't work and the bells don't chime. Don't buy these programs unless you're already a successful internet marketer. Why? Because they leave out all the basics. They Get Easily Bored - When they don't make a million overnight. More and more people are easily lured by the promise of overnight riches. I can tell you right now that it doesn't work that way. The work you put into your internet business - is exactly the payout you get. They Don't Follow Through - They submit one or two articles, they create one or two web pages on a free site, they get no bites and they don't do anything more. They fail to follow through. They Keep Looking for The Magic Button To The Internet ATM Machine - There isn't one. It's that simple. You create your own hoopla on the internet, there' isn't some magic button you can push or no magic pill you can take. They Jump From Strategy to Strategy - Never deciding to focus on one until they succeed at it. When you learned how to ride a bike, did you go from the bike to the skateboard to the skates - or did you stick with the bike until you learned how to do it? It's the same with developing your online internet business - stick with it until you get it. Once you find something that works, the idea is then to rinse and repeat.
