The Business Benefits of Internet Marketing: The Keys for Success


What is it about making money on the internet that appeals to so many people? People like you and me, who are fed up with being told what to do, when to do it and how to do it all day long? The reasons are simple...think of what you can do with a REAL business on the internet, a Portable Business Empire:

1. Work When You Want: You set your own hours. This takes self-discipline though (trust me on this one)! You have to have a plan each day to learn and implement what is necessary to be successful. It is very easy to get pulled off on a tangent that does nothing for your bottom line; such as checking and reading personal email, surfing websites that have nothing to do with your business, etc. I think you get the idea here.

2. Work Where You Want: With a laptop and access to the internet you can operate this amazing business anywhere; an internet cafĂ©, public libraries, friends or relative’s homes, hotspots, your house. There are almost no geographical limitations to making a good living with an internet business.

3. Work As Much Or As Little You Want: You will never have to be on somebody else’s schedule again, such as a boss. Obviously, you can’t treat your internet business like a hobby or it will cease being a business and become a money-pit that you can pour a ton of cash into with no reward. The difference is whether you start out treating it as a “part-time” business as opposed to “trying it in your spare time”.

4. Unlimited Potential For Your Business: Network marketing provides the best of referral marketing and the internet gives you the leverage you need to attract an abundance of clients/members for your business. At the present moment there are an estimated 1.2 BILLION PEOPLE WORLDWIDE with access to the internet. Imagine the possibilities that provides!

5. Money Keeps Coming In Even If You Don’t Work For A Month: Also called “Residual Income”. Great network/internet marketing businesses are structured so that once you have built your business for a predetermined length of time, your income will get deposited into your bank account 24 hours a day, 365 days a year!

6. You Will Become A Greater Leader: In order for your business to grow you must grow. You will have to become a bigger and better person in order to continue to expand your personal and business horizons. The key point: the leader leads the follower, but remember, it is VISION that leads the leader. This is so important that this reason should probably be number one!

OK. So, now that you know the benefits of owning a successful network/internet marketing business, you have to learn the key ingredients to becoming successful.

First And Foremost, you must follow the BE>DO>HAVE formula. You have to become something inside yourself before you can have it in reality. You have to stamp the imprint onto your brain that YOU ARE NOW AN INTERNET MARKETER! This must now become a part of who you are in order to succeed in your Portable Business Empire.

Second, you have to choose the right vehicle/business - tailored to your specific personality and lifestyle. For example, you wouldn’t go 4-wheeling in your brand new Ferrari. You would choose a suitably equipped 4-wheel drive vehicle for this task. The same applies to your business and your personality.

Third, you want to have the best training available that gives you step-by-step instructions on how to become successful at your new venture AND be simple to implement as well. Most business models are great in concept, but how are they when it really counts? I’ve found from years of experience at this that most need a “superstar salesman” to make them work. You want something simple and straightforward that a “regular” person can learn and implement.

Fourth, now that you’re learning the business, you have to start driving high quality, targeted traffic to your businesses website. Notice I didn’t say “know the business inside and out” – or “analysis paralysis” as it is called – remember this: you don’t have to make it perfect…you just have to GET IT GOING! Failure to do so will make or break your internet business just the same as it will in ANY business.

The Fifth Key to success in your network marketing venture is proper communication. Once you start getting people interested in your business and they start working with you, you have to stay in touch with them, help answer their questions, teach them, lead them. Great leaders are hard to come by. Become one and you will RULE THE WORLD!

The Sixth And Final Piece Of The Puzzle. You must never rest on your laurels and think “you’ve finally arrived”! This is a lifelong process. You have to continue to learn and grow to be a TRUE success in life. My grandfather always used to tell me: “Once you stop learning, that’s when you start dying.” Trust me, use it, it’s great advice!

Alright, that should give you a good outline to start getting going. THINK AND DREAM BIG! Now, you’ll want to stay tuned, because my next series of articles will actually break down each of the six keys one by one in detail and explain precisely how you can use each one to start and succeed in your own network/internet marketing business!
