Web Biz Opportunities - StarrBizz.comSome of my
web biz blog readers and
home based Internet business friends know that I have been interested in
work from home plans and opportunities for a number of years. If you are reading THIS blog post, chances are YOU have some degree of interest in such plans yourself.
How about it?
Do you like work from home ideas?My interest first began some number of decades ago, long before ordinary people like me could even envision something as wonderfully liberating as the
World Wide Web. Instant communication! Who would have thought it possible in such a format? (A few people, fortunately.)
In the "olden days" we had to do our marketing strictly by
snail mail. You remember that, don't you? That's where you had to write something on a
paper, fold it a few times, stick it inside of another paper that was folded and glued into kind of a pouch shape, lick some sticky stuff to seal it, lick a postage stamp to go on the outside, add someone's physical address, deliver it to the local postal service, then hope they do their job and deliver your important sales message to your prospect in some faraway land.
Whew! That was a lot of work just explaining it! Am I ever glad that the good people at the Internet decided to tell us about websites, email marketing and instant electronic delivery of information without the need for printing and physical mailing! And I am forever grateful that they are letting us use the technology.
But, I digress. Years ago I became interested in all those ads in various magazines offering all kinds of opportunities to
work from home and
earn extra income. I wanted to know how to do it. I wanted to learn all the secrets to home business success that the advertisers promised to reveal.
Well, the "secrets" then are the same as they are now:
1) Find a product (or service or opportunity) in demand;
2) Prepare some powerfully appealing advertising copy (ads, letters, promotional packages);
3) Get your message in front of millions of people;
4) And a percentage of them will become customers.
The number of customers (sales) you got,
then as now, depended on the popularity of the product, the quality of the prospect, and your persistence in continuing to send your sales message to the masses.
Over the years,
smart marketers learned a few additional tricks ... er, I mean "
secrets."
a) Choose a niche market (it can also be a niche within a niche - think about that);
b) Focus your ad copy on how the product solves problems for the customer. Benefits and features are nice, but help the prospect visualize exactly how the product is going to solve some problem for them;
c) Pre-Qualify your customers. Targeted prospects convert better than the "shotgun" approach where you simply mail to the masses irrespective of their interests or needs. To pre-qualify your prospects, you first attract them with a free offer that is directly related to the main product you want to sell. Once they have shown an interest in the free thing, then send your high-powered promotional package for the main product.
d) The Money is in the List: It is typically easier and less expensive to sell a second product to an existing customer than it is to get a new customer. When you pre-qualify your prospects, and especially when they buy something, make a list. Keep their contact information and periodically send them additional offers that you have already determined they will be interested in. Follow up.
Today, the Internet has improved the whole marketing process significantly and instant, mass communication has accelerated the potential for great sales success.
In other words, if you take time to learn how to apply the "secrets to success" your chances for financial independence will be greatly enhanced.
All that remains is to choose a product (or service or opportunity) in demand, get some insight and training from the experts, learn to use technology to your advantage, and be persistent in your income goals.
