My 180 degree change to online marketing
Filed Under (internet-marketing) by Jeff Yung on 27-12-2008
Recently, I enrolled in a coaching program with Alex Jeffreys, of Marketingwithyou.com fame. He is marketing with you, not to you!
See his post: It’s time to shine in 2009.
Alex has basically became a guru in a relatively short period of time. He was trained under gurus like Mike Filsaime and Rich Schefren, to name a few.
He released a really eye opening report titled the Guru Dream. In that report, Alex tells the story of how the gurus tells you one thing and then they do another. They are basically selling you a dream of millionaire Internet income and lifestyle. They became rich! And you? Still searching for the next product, the next offer that will make you money!
What’s different in this report is that Alex is presenting a way to start your dream lifestyle the correct way. Hint, not by following what the gurus said. It’s a worthy reading!
So my intention is to do a 180 degree turn around on this blog. I have realized that I had became too salesy in my posts. As a result, I have not been getting repeating/returning traffic to this blog.
In the past, all of my posts were to pitch a product launch; like the StomperNet or the Arbitrage Controversy launch.
I believe, from reading Alex’s Guru Dream report, that the correct direction would be to provide great deal of information first and then the sales will follow.
Have you heard of the study that a customer will only buy if they are exposed to a product after seven (7) times?! And sometime even more…
So that means, most people will not buy the first time they see a product. They will weight their options. They will search near and far for more information to make a better purchase decision.
And what’s worse? You customers will look for the best bonus they can get! This is a result of the hyped up launches in the internet marketing niche. How often have you gotten an email from all the gurus, that you are following, on a big launch of the week, of the month?
I hope you are saying plenty! Because I have. And I have deleted all of them! I have promoted some of these big launches too.
And do you know how many sales I have gotten? One, or two? I was depressed…
I had a big dreams of making millions online when I finally decided to do someting online back in 2007. Well, it’s now the end of 2008. I have yet to really earn anything consistent online.
Enought!
Something has gotten to give, right?
So, I am changing the way I am marketing online starting today.
I will provide great information.
I will share what I have learned with Alex Jeffreys.
I will make 2009 finally the year that I become someone on the internet.
Let’s start the journey!
