Actual for You - Internet Marketing Techniques Using FFA Sites - 2 Sure Fire Ways To Fail Miserably
Lately, I have been noticing a lot more talk about “enabling conversations” with the use of various communications tools such as blogs, podcasts and the like. Let me take a moment to dissect this trendlet and give you my thoughts. Back in the day, we used the phone to have conversations when we weren’t physically in the same place. Few of us have that luxury anymore. So what would you consider second best – maybe an email exchange? But we all get too many emails, and besides, it might go into my spam bucket for some reason, so you can’t be sure that I will get your message. This is especially true when I send out my Web Informant, not tha

Since I've also been there, done that, I know very well how it feels to get nothing in return for all those useless marketing efforts. I've been involved with Internet Marketing since 2002 and quite frankly I'm fed up with all the hype and nonsense about "how to drive your website traffic through the roof and explode your sales" doing NOTHING.
I tell you this: Despite what you can read everywhere online, it's virtually impossible for anyone, even those with a good understanding of the Internet, to make a substantial income from any online business opportunity without putting in a lot of hard work -- and even then it's doomed to fail when you spend time and money on obsolete marketing techniques and tools that no longer work.
I feel sorry for all the ones who are just starting out and thinking that submitting their ads to FFA sites is the "magic pill" to gain worldwide attention or popularity. Nothing could be further from the truth!

When we encounter new information we are forced to make a choice.One choice is to disregard the information because it does not fit our view of the world.The other choice is to embrace the information and think "What does this mean to me?" or "How can this help me?"Unfortunately, too many business people take the first choice – to disregard information - and let opportunities pass them by. You see, for most of us change is uncomfortable. So we stick with what we have always done, even if it is not working well.But it is up to us to find out the truth about marketing. That is, the truth about how to market our ow

Quality online business solutions for the new entrepreneur are sometimes hard to find. If they are free then they aren’t functional, and if they’re functional they’re out of your price range.Although more effective business solutions are coming within range of new small businesses ‘free’ is always in budget.A new tool that was recently upgraded and integrated with some interesting productivity tools was Skype. Skype, introduced to the Internet in 2003 quickly became indispensable to marketers who were using instant messaging with poor audio quality.Talking on Skype was always like talking on a cell phone. No two way r

When was the last time you thought about taking your business to new and heady heights, but didn’t actually get any further? Don’t worry, you are not alone.There’s plenty of business owners out there who let their brains stand in the way of fundamental changes in their business. We either think that we can’t do it, or we don’t know how to do it. Sound familiar?If you want to do more than grow incrementally then you need to get into some radical thinking. It’s pretty easy to set a goal of selling 10% more, or getting 5 more customers. This is what I call an incremental target (meaning….just a little bit more than last time). T

Something we talk about consistently with our coaching students is the importance of the follow up letter. However, the follow up letter is not limited to those who are operating a lease purchase business. Whatever type of business you are operating, after speaking with a potential client you should be sending some type of follow up correspondence. It could be a letter, a post card, or in some instances an email.I can’t count the number of deals we have gotten from a follow up letter we sent. The longest time to go by before hearing from a seller was 14 months, but we did hear from them. Why, because I sent a follow up letter and i
There are some FFA site owners out there that use the FFA site system as a vehicle to educate all the people using their free service. In itself this is a nice thing to do and a very pragmatic approach. These FFA site owners tell you this: "In order to benefit from an FFA site, you must OWN the FFA site and become a paid member. As an FFA site owner you can send email ads to everyone that uses the free service."
It's a thing called "Reverse Marketing." If you own an FFA site, then you can advertise to all your advertisers. Wow, sounds great. THOUSANDS of ads that are posted to your site are YOUR prospects. Your emails will automatically go to them when they post to your site.
But in today's junk mail environment, most people are deleting their junk mail especially if it arrives with the flood of emails from their FFA ad submission. Wouldn't you do the same? As far as I am concerned, I was pretty well disgusted with all those confirmation emails filling up my mailbox so quickly. So, what I did, I set up a free email account with a spam filter, and, within days of posting my ad, just let the ads pile up in my junk folder and deleted them later without ever reading them.
And, in my opinion, that's exactly what nearly all FFA posters are doing and prevents the "Reverse Marketing" system from working. Sure, there will be a certain percentage that scans through the emails they receive in return for their posting. But remember these folks are all ad
