No matter what anybody tells you, building a personal customer base for any business, online or otherwise, is what determines how long you will be in business, whether you will be profitable, and if you'll feel gratified with the relationships that have grown out of your desire to meet your customer's needs. This relationship is what brings you return customers for years.
Running a business is not an easy task. In the beginning, it seems you have to work for hours on end. You eat, sleep, and breathe profits. But what you really need to be doing is eat, sleep, and breathe Marketing.
You may already know how very valuable marketing is to ensuring success for your business. You may already spend several thousands of dollars on marketing for your business. But for some, having a small advertising budget really doesn't have to mean failure. This is where having the knowledge about how the internet works will measure that success you've been dreaming of. Hello, there is FREE advertising sites on the internet.
"Dive right in!" These are the words that come to mind if you want to work at home, have several hours a day to commit to work, are self-motivated, and have a little money to invest in yourself as you see your business get off the ground. Initially, that's all it takes! You can work part-time or full-time and see where it goes.
So many people have that misconception to "Dive right in!" Don't get me wrong, that's where it all starts. There is nothing more important than the drive to want to be your own boss, to work from home, and to offer a product to a needy market niche. However, even if you've designed the best website ever or have the best product to offer on the market, or just want to affiliate market someone else's product(s), you will fail if you don't have a good understanding of the value and importance of marketing and your business is doomed before you get it off the ground.
So, email, email, email! This is probably something different than what you've heard it takes to measure success from online marketing, but you've got to know several thing. First of all, your email contact list is a starting point of people you can reach today. Most of them already know you. This is important. Yes, many of them are your friends and family, but you can use this to help your business get off the ground faster. Don't be shy about using them. For whatever reason, they want you to succeed in whatever endeavors you find yourself in. So this is Step One; realizing you already have a loyal customer base. And, if they are willing to reach out by forwarding your business announcement with your website link to their friends and family, they will help you reach out to more and more people. You must be professional in every aspect of your business if you want to succeed. Your first announcement must reflect that.
Someone once said, "Early to bed, Early to Rise...Write like hell and ADVERTISE!" That entrepreneur had it right. That person knew how to measure success! Do you? Do you know what it takes to market your business in today's saturated internet world? There is a whole lot changing and you need to ensure you're not left behind if you want to succeed.
