Is the Internet a Business or a Bridge to Build a Businesses?
By Chuck Bartok | June 27, 2010
I know, I have been absent again for a while. No excuse for not being consistent in blogging, here at Beginner Marketing Class Blog. Creating the New Membership and Product site on our Weekly Webinar series have kept my focus away from BMC, but the real culprit is PROCRASTINATION. ( Grab this Free E-book which helped me get back on track)
Listening to the many callers from our Two Podcasts a week I keep hearing about the Internet as a BUSINESS. I do believe the Internet is a Viable business for the 1-2% of Developers of Applications, and creators of Valuable TOOLS and SOFTWARE.
But for the budding Marketer, the person who is seeking to create a Part or Full Time Business, the INTERNET is nothing more than a Bridge of Communication to establish Credibility and Authority and develop strong Customer Relations…
As Donald Lee Photograph below, so well illustrates that BRIDGE for many seems Foggy and difficult to traverse. There is new terminology, programs being offered, seemingly, daily. I have listened to many who feel lost and willing to Forgo the Internet as a TOOL to build a business.
So let’s spend a moment to see if we can CLEAR the path and demonstrate who simple this wonderful Global Bridge (The Internet) can easily be traversed, but for many is seems shrouded in a bank of fog.
Going back to the previous post we can review the steps needed before the Journey begins and what needs to be done to prepare using the Internet.
Once the above are in place, a Plan of action needs to be implemented.
- What is you Goal for Internet Activity?
- How much Time are you willing to invest?
- Is your Budget set at realistic numbers?
To effectively use the Internet as a Communication Bridge you need to build a list of interested prospects to your Product or Service. Having your own hosting account and C-panel will allow you to build attractive Capture pages to gather information to communicate further about WHO YOU ARE and learn more about WHO YOUR PROSPECTS ARE and what their needs and wants might be.
Before and while that is going on, YOU need to be building a PRESENCE and credibility as the GO TO Person for the Product or Service which is YOUR passion.
We will be addressing each of these methods in Detail in subsequent posts:
Building that Clear Vision Bridge on the Internet
- Branding
- Blogging
- Effective Social Media
The above methods are Low to No Cost and require a Plan of Action
