The Formula For Marketing Success
A run down on how to successfully market (to any market).
You need to get this right if you want to succeed on the
internet or any business for that matter.
There are 4 parts to marketing. 1. A target market (a group of people with a common interest eg. body builders)2. A product (physical or digital)3. An offer (to get the sale $$$)4. Delivery of the product (satisfy the customer)You take away any one of these parts and you're not
going to be in business very long. However, there is
a special formula to make these pieces work together
for pr.ofit.
** You need the right market** You need the right product** You need the right timeJust think of it like fishing. Go to the wrong place
and the fish won't bite. Use the wrong bait..the fish
won't bite. Go at the wrong time....no fish!
Whatever you do..don't be trying to sell diet pills
to guys going bald...that's the wrong market and wrong
product.
We can't control time but we can control people's
emotions and impulses to a certain extent. Direct
marketing is all about getting prospects to
"act now"or take some type of action...
either try your productor buy it.And that brings me to another important point.
Action is needed by you, the marketer to get things
done. Do some research, find a market, find a product,
send out your offer and deliver the goods.
That's the formula for marketing success.Stuart Stirling

Separating yourself from the crowd (who aren't making money)
-------------------------------
Inspirational Quote Of The Day- "I've discovered
that the secret to suc.cess in life is to work
hard at the margin. Relentlessly. Those little
marginal extra efforts will inevitably grow into
something big."
- Ted Nicholas (successful veteran marketer)

=====Setting Yourself Apart From The Rest=====
The internet offers so many roads for money
making opportunities, it's a GATEWAY like no other.
It really is the perfect medium for anyone to
make some quick_cash with minimal start up costs.
However.....
Unfortunatley, many "net marketers" out here
abuse the benefits and capabilities of the
internet, concreting the stereotype of "making
money on the net is a SCAM!"
It's because of them, the "good guy" marketers
get lost in the sess pool, making it hard for
them to "stand above" the rest.
If you're trying to make a living online or
even just a few extra bucks, then it is essential
for your success to do things a little different.
Like the quote above, "work hard at the margin."
When you work hard at separating yourself from
the rest, it'll explode into something big.
Just consider these statistics.....
++ Over 1 million webpages are added to the
internet every day!
++ 98% of people trying to make money online
fail miserably and give up within 6 months!
So that means you have 2 choices.....
You join the 2% who have separated themselves
from the rest, or......
You go back to working for the "man".
Here are some policies that I live by that
help me be different from the rest.
------------------------------------------
** "Honesty is the best policy." This is true
in life and business.
------------------------------------------
** "Win-Win" is the only way to actually win.
------------------------------------------
** Over-delivering works like magic.
------------------------------------------
** An idea "outside the box" is worth it's
weight in gold.
------------------------------------------
** Hard work never killed anyone.
------------------------------------------
** You only get out what you put in.
------------------------------------------
Remember, if you do the same as everyone
else, you'll get the same result as everyine else.
Please take a few seconds to think about
these. Choose one and try to improve on it.
Greater success will soon follow.
Have a great weekend,
