No they won't... if you don't have a good marketing program or strategy in place nobody knows your business exist until you advertise.
- I don't need a business plan, I know exactly what to do.
No having a business plan is planning for failure! You don't need a 50 pages business plan, but you need a detail road map of each of the steps that you are going to make to achieve your business goals.
- After I start my business I going to begin reading about marketing and all those things.
Bad idea... Off course that learning new strategies that can work for the growth of your company is a must. But, I recommend you to learn as much as you can before jumping into any type of business, specially if your new start-up requires you to invest a lot of money.
- I going to split my time fifty-fifty for the company operations and marketing.
Wrong way to spend your valuable time... You should spend more time in growing your company's revenue and customer base. This mean that you should dedicate 80% of your time or more to marketing and advertising.
- I don't need a business consultant, I just ask any of my friends and family members tips for my company.
Asking your family and friends what they think about your business, product, or idea is a good way to see what people other than yourself think about the type of product or service you are selling or want to sell. But, you cannot take business advice from those non-business owners or people that don't have an entrepreneur mind.

By Luis Galarza - Affiliate Marketing Secret Training Guide BlogYeah, It's True... Google Toolbar Is Overwriting 404 Error Pages All Over The Web. For Some People This Doesn't Mean Anything. But, For Online Marketers Means That Google Is Stylling Part Of Your Virtual Real Estate Which Can Be Use For Integrated Marketing Practices!
"Reports are that when you install the toolbar and surf to a 404 page, a page not found, Google will replace the 404 page with their own page.I have not tested this myself, because I am on a Mac and this is an issue with a Windows toolbar. I do not know if it affects all 404 pages, both default 404 pages and custom 404 pages or just default 404 pages. In any event, this is what Google uses to replace your 404 page:"

By Luis Galarza - Affiliate Marketing Secret Training Guide BlogI always like to start my blog post with a little introduction paragraph about the content or the final lesson inside the articles, but this time I want to quote a little phrase spoken by a Internet marketing genius in one of his ebooks, he specialize in Affiliate marketing, his name is Ewen Chia."It doesn't matter if you've the best products, biggest list or most traffic. You still fail if you don't know the basics of good old fashion marketing... you'll still stumble if you can't connect with your market... you'll still waste your efforts if you don't push the hot buttons that make people BUY your products."
You can find the rest of this phrase and all the marketing information that this ebook and the rest of Ewen Chia affiliate marketing membership has by subscribing to his site for only $9.99. Personally, I think he is crazy because he offers so much information, access to his private blog, and high quality bonuses to his members for so little... But, that's the way to do it, that's why I completely recommend you to sign up. Plus, you just learn another powerful marketing lesson, which is:"Always Over Deliver, Always Provide Some Of The Best Information Or Offer You Have, And Eventually You Will Make A Lot Of Money Front Those That Trust In Your Knowledge And Products!" By Luis Galarza :)
I guess this is a good subject for another article or blog post...
Before I forget, Ewen Chia affiliate marketing membership site and ebook:
- "Affiliate Secret Weapon" (excellent for new marketers)
- Also check "Super Affiliate Course" (advanced affiliate marketing)
Back to my main subject "Marketing basics that Internet marketers should know."
Everyone from business experts to new entrepreneurs know that marketing is one of the most difficult parts of any business online or offline, for that reason many people buy different types of marketing books and ebooks (electronic or digital books) that hopefully explain practical strategies that really work in a way that is easy for them to understand.
When you developing a marketing program or writing a marketing plan for your online business, to ensure it success make sure your program is:
- Organized
- Systematic
- Goals Base On Customer Demands
Organized
You need to have a step-by-step plan that fill your day with tasks that will increase your customer base and sales while maintaining a good budget control (of money and time). Also, is good to have deadlines on each part of your project to increase effectiveness.
Systematic
Your marketing program have to be programmable specially on the Internet which is a always changing communication channel, needs to be easy to track and analyse. Also, this means that your plan becomes a system that anyone in your company can follow.
Goals Base On Customer Demands
Don't confuse your online business goals with your marketing goals. Your business goals are exactly what you want your company to achieve, while your marketing goals need to focus on what your target customers want or need, and if you deliver on their demands you will achieve your company goals, too.
All this ingredients are very important because is your job as a marketer to find customers, motivate them to purchase your products, and then motivate them again to repeat a purchase or to buy one of your up-sell offers which can be an affiliate program product or one of your own. This process can be easy if you build a marketing system that is customer demand goal oriented and well organized.
So, What's marketing for you?
As you may know marketing is the soul of every business online or offline... and just you can also go to Google, Yahoo or any of the top search engines and look for what Wikipedia or online dictionaries have to say about the meaning of marketing... but, that's not what I mean, and just to save you the trouble here is what Wikipedia say about marketing:"Marketing is a societal process that is needed to discern consumers' wants; focusing on a product/service to those wants, and to mould the consumers towards the products/services. Marketing is fundamental to any businesses growth. The marketing teams (Marketers) have the task to create the consumer awareness of the products/services through marketing techniques; unless it pays due attention to its products/services and consumers' demographics and desires, a business will not usually prosper long-term."
Maybe I had to reword my question, because what I mean is: What your customers think about your marketing strategies? I ask you this, because the best way to know how customers want to be approach in a specific market is by asking them and by collecting research data from different sources.
You can use polls, surveys, top search keyword research, etc. You need to collect as much data as you can, analyze it and change your marketing plan to better find your customers or take a Web 2.0 or social media marketing approach and let them find you.
In simple words, you need to see your marketing from your customers eyes.
What marketing can do for your online business?
A good organized, systematic, and customer demands focus marketing program can find your target customers, motivate them to buy, and re-buy your product or service. For many entrepreneurs this can be a hard task... you have to find a good amount of qualify prospects, them some how you need to convince them to purchase what you offer, then help them understand the use of it, and then you need to compel them to purchase again.
OK, I want you to take a look a your marketing plan, program or system or just simple look a what you are doing now to increase your web traffic and sales. Please answer this questions about your marketing plan:
1.- Are testing different sales copy and ad formats to see which one perform better?
2.- Are you presenting your offer in an fashionable way to the right prospects?
3.- Is your web site, blog or landing page copywriting effective enough to make them take action now? (buy, opt-in, call, subscribe)
4.- Are you helping them to understand what to do next? (use your service or product, login to learn more, check their email for the free course or coupon, have a notepad and pen when calling)
5.- Are you using fire back end sales strategies to compel them to purchase again?
6.- Are you tracking the results of each marketing campaign?
7.- Are you trashing what doesn't work and mastering what does?

"It's a mind grenade, a little bit of insight that will help you see what's causing your organization (or you) to get stuck.
Here's the official description:
The old saying is wrong-winners do quit, and quitters do win.
Every new project (or job, or hobby, or company) starts out exciting and fun. Then it gets harder and less fun, until it hits a low point-really hard, and not much fun at all. And then you find yourself asking if the goal is even worth the hassle.
Maybe you're in a Dip-a temporary setback that will get better if you keep pushing. But maybe it's really a Cul-de-Sac, which will never get better, no matter how hard you try.
What really sets superstars apart from everyone else is the ability to escape dead ends quickly, while staying focused and motivated when it really counts.
Winners quit fast, quit often, and quit without guilt-until they commit to beating the right Dip for the right reasons. In fact, winners seek out the Dip. They realize that the bigger the barrier, the bigger the reward for getting past it. If you can become number one in your niche, you'll get more than your fair share of profits, glory, and long-term security.
Losers, on the other hand, fall into two basic traps: Either they fail to stick out the Dip-they get to the moment of truth and then give up-or they never even find the right Dip to conquer." - The DIP.
List of quitters who went on to become winners:
Jeff Foxworthy, John Legend, Enzo Ferrari, Scott Clark, Gandhi, Tom Peters, Shea Gunther, Ernie Mosteller, Francis Crick, Bill Gates, Ray Kroc, Howard Stern, Francis Obikwelu, Dave Ramsey, Suze Orman, Harrison Ford, John Piper, Willem de Kooning, Jill Konrath, John Grisham, Jeff Bezos, Michael Bloomberg, Shawn Carter, Rowan Manahan, Ralph Roberts, Dan Schapiro, and even Apple, home of the Newton and the Apple III (and Michael Dell).
The DIP is a little book about quitting by Seth Godin. Godin is a bestselling author, entrepreneur and agent of change.
I am fascinated by the subject matter, and I have to say that everyone of us has The DIP spirit within us. At times, we have to really dig deep to find an answer to The DIP. For most of us, The DIP happens to us - the circumstances, the environment, the management, the timing, etc., and then we try to find an answer to The DIP. Is this too late?
Godin tells us to instead make The DIP happen. Many questions arise: Do winners quit fast, quit often and quit without guilt? Does this mean winners don't seek out solutions to every problem they face? Or winners are focused on finding answers to the most difficult problems? Winners have an innate ability to escape dead ends quickly, and staying focused and motivated when it really counts, all keys to conquering The DIP. I believe most leaders will agree with this.
Perhaps The DIP is trying to find the common thread among some of the biggest winners we have come to know and admire; however, for every winner (and a quitter) on The DIP list, I'm sure there are many more winners who did not quit and still won. The DIP is not a recipe to quit what you're doing and begin a new quest; rather, to dig deep and find answers to the toughest problems you may face. If you do end up conquering them, success will be yours.
Update:
Guy Kawasaki has published an excellent post on The Big Dip: Ten Questions with Seth Godin
Here are the ten questions Kawasaki asked Godin on The Dip (to find the detailed answers, go to Guy's blog):
GK Question #1: Other than hindsight, how does someone know when it’s time to quit?
SG Answer #1: It’s time to quit.....
GK Question #2: If I’m in the middle of a dip, how do I know if it’s worth gutting it out to get to the other side?
SG Answer #2: The best time to ask this question is .....
GK Question #3: Is there a place for the intrinsic value of learning a skill—for example, playing hockey or the violin—even though you know you won’t be the best in the world?
SG Answer #3: Mastery is an addiction.....
GK Question #4: What if the market is not established so there’s no way to know if it even exists and if it’s worth dedicating/rededicating to?
SG Answer #4: Here’s the art of being an entrepreneur....
GK Question #5: How can a company quit a product and not give the incorrect signal that it’s quitting the market?
SG Answer #5: Tactics change all the time.....
GK Question #6: What’s more powerful: a short-term pain or long-term gain?
SG Answer #6: The power of quitting is that it empowers you....
GK Question #7: Do most companies quit too early or try too long?
SG Answer #7: Lucky for us, it’s both....
GK Question #8: Should Microsoft quit the MP3 player market?
SG Answer #8: I thought they already did.....
GK Question #9: Should Apple quit the personal computer market?
SG Answer #9: Apple has already crossed that Dip, big time.....
GK Question #10: Should America quit the Iraq War?
SG Answer #10: My opinion doesn’t matter.....

Who's The Coolest Guy On The Planet?

By Luis Galarza
In fact the last Search Engine research test made by Google shows that web surfers eyes focus first on the results from the natural search and PPC, Sponsors Links, or Adword's are the last to be view by Internet surfers...
Dear Marketer,
Natural Search Engine generates most of the web targeted traffic that top websites get. Well, look like net surfers don't pay attention to PPC or Adword's until they check all the results generated by Natural Search. Now the top 3 or 5 natural links get most of the attention, but even the links at the end of the search results page get far more attention that the PPC ads.
Don't get me wrong, PPC advertising work... But if you spend some time on SEO (Search Engine Optimization) to build your Natural Search Engine top position for your website you can save a TON of your money and get massive targeted traffic to your web site, and as you may know: Targeted Traffic means Sales, and Sales mean Profit!
Actually, me and Anna Phommatham just finished writing a new report that teach how to get on the top results of the search engines no matter if you have no content, no meta tags, no title, no headline, and even if your site is just a image, multimedia, or flash... I will post the link where you can get your own copy of this secret report later this week...
Conclusion: Who cares what Gurus said! Natural Search Engine is way better than PPC and almost any other way to bring high quality targeted traffic to your web site... I recommend you to start some kind of viral marketing campaign, because this can help you generate targeted visitors to your web site while your working on optimizing your sites to gain the power of Natural Search Engine traffic... The easiest viral marketing campaign that you can start is giving away your own viral ebook with quality information and encourage people to pass it on to their friends.
To Your Success,
Luis Galarza
P.S. If you asking yourself, is there a better, faster, and quicker way to generate traffic, my own opti-in list, and make money online? Well, there are two system that I strongly recommend that doesn't required you to have your own product NOTE: You need a small investment on each: One is the Viral Marketing Experiment which is excellent to build a mailing list and market others people products (Warning: This one works really fast and can have you bank call you to ask you if you doing anything iligal). The second one is the Freedom Income System this one help you launch your own niche information product and they help you make at least $10,000 in 90 days or they pay you $500 dollars just for trying their system.

Hi Netpreneurs,
So you have a nice design web site, prepare to take orders, with a "Good" sales copy but your product still not selling enough or not selling anything at all... You try everything, do regular changes, cool stuff to try to make your site more sticky, you send solo ads to other newsletter subscribers, send 1,000's of top sponsor ezine ads, buy 1,000,000 unique visitors, join all the free or paid traffic exchange services, and still no sales!
So what can you do to produce some Cash Flow even if your product is not pulling sales. Here are some of the things you can do to add more income opportunities to your web site:
On my newsletter I teach two more powerful ways to integrate affiliate links on your web page that can give you instant sales even if your visitor leaved your web site...
Now if your product is not selling maybe you're marketing to the wrong niche. Remember that to make it on any business you need to present your offer to the right target market. Learning how to find and sell to desperate buyers is the business key to the success of the biggest companies in the world. Because successful businesses are base on promoting your service or product to a Hungry Crow...
Is your time to find yours...

This was a case study made by top marketing expert and business lawyer Mr. Shawn Casey (Co-founder of The Millionaire Of The Month Club), well the thing he did was asking to 15 of the best Internet Marketing Masters, how they will make $1000 in 48 hours? If terrorist have their families and the only thing they get is a phone line, a computers, Internet access, and a pre-paid visa card with only $200 limit. But, to make it even harder, they need to act like they don't nothing about Internet Marketing, and they have no opt-in list, no business, no product. And they only have 48 hours to make $1000 in net profit...
Shawn Casey did this case study to put together a report that can help people in need to make money now, not 3 months from now... The Desperate For Money Report is a excellent source of information for anyone who needs to make money fast. Because when you desperate for cash you need to something that can work for you and an produce profit right away specially if the live of your family depends on it. That's exactly what I did after I left my last job, I knew what to do but my mind was comfortable in a regular job. But, when I left I decide that I will never work for someone again, and I didn't even look for a job... I focus on my knowledge about Internet Marketing and direct marketing and apply it to my current business. And it worked!
Like the popular rapper Fifty Cent said "Get Rich Or Die Trying", as soon it's legal :-)
I was amazed with the information in the Shawn Casey "Desperate For Money" Report. Because has no B.S. it's all pure quick step by step business ideas that can generate $1000 or more in less than 48 hours... I truly recommend it.
If you know me already, I never write reviews or critiques if I didn't think that will help my readers on their road to a successful business life. And this is not really a Desperate For Money review, it's just a quick note of recommendation for those who are desperate for quick money to pay bills or just to get started on the Online business world fast and with a very low budget.
Hope this can help you...
