Proven To Work Advertising

Archive for the ‘online advertising’ Category

The internet is now the leading source of information in the world is currently circulating billions of dollars through the internet.  With all of this money you would think there should be plenty of opportunity for people to make money online right?  You are correct.  There is a massive amount of money to be made on the internet, but it is not easy, and it has to be done the right way.

Yes, that’s right, making money online is not a get rich quick scheme.  If you find any program or e-book that promises to have you making money, do not waste your money; it is a scam.  There is no such thing as a getting rich overnight, unless you win the lottery or your millionaire grandpa dies, its not going to happen. 

This does not mean that you can’t make a killing online, it just means you have to work at it.  I am going to show you the best way to make quick money online.  There are many ways for money to be made online, I would say the best is affiliate marketing.  For those of you who do not know what this is, it is basically refferring a customer to a seller’s site or product, and when the customer purchases it, you get a commission, which can be as high as 75%.  This is the bare bones explanation of affiliate marketing, but the basics are all that is required to start earning some extra cash.  It is the best way to make quick money online.  There are also websites that have tutorials and guides to help you get started.  The best by far is WEALTHY AFFILIATE.

The best way to make quick money online is affiliate marketing.  There are two basic kinds of affiliate marketing, PPC, which is pay-per-click advertising, and article marketing.  I will be focusing on article amrketing in this article because that is the method that costs nothing to get started.

Article marketing is when you write an article about a specific topic and then at the end of the article you put your affiliate link (the link that customers click on to get to the seller’s site).  There are some pointers to remember when writing the article:

1.  Make sure it is relevant to the product you are selling.  If you write an article about losing weight and the product you are selling is about getting toned muscle, you won’t make as many sales.

2.  Write decent information.  Write an article that has useful information, if you don’t people won’t read it and thus won’t buy the product you are promoting.

3.  Keyword optimization is key.  A keyword is what someone types into the search engine when looking for content.  You want to make the title of your article the same as the keyword you are using.  You also want to make sure the keyword you are using doesn’t have too much competition.  You can check out WEALTHY AFFILIATE for more info on keyword optimization.

4.  Submit your articles to the right directories.  The four best directories to submit articles to are ezinearticles.com, goarticles.com, articlesbase.com, and associatedcontent.com.  These sites have the best PR with Google,  which means that Google is more likely to get them on the first page.

So are you still wondering how writing these articles can really make you money?  After you find a keyword you want to use you write an article relevant to that keyword and find a product to promote.  If you use SEO (search engine optimization) to get your article on the first page, you have an ad on the first page of google.  Guides and tutorials on SEO can be found at WEALTHY AFFILIATE.

Using these techniques you can easily start making money online.  There are people making upwards of $1,000 a day using affilate marketing.  Article marketing is without a doubt the best way to make quick money online.

Marketing is defined by the Wikipedia dictionary as a business term referring to the promotion of products, especially advertising and branding. The term developed from the original meaning which referred literally to going to market, as in shopping, or going to a market to sell goods or services.

In professional usage the term has a wider meaning of the practice and science of trading. The American Marketing Association (AMA) states, “Marketing is an organizational function and a set of processes for creating, communicating and delivering value to customers and for managing customer relationships in ways that benefit the organization and its stakeholders.”

Marketing practice tends to be seen as a creative industry, which includes advertising, distribution and selling. It is also concerned with anticipating the customers’ future needs and wants, which are often discovered through market research.

The scientific study of marketing is a wide and heavily interconnected subject with extensive academic publications. Marketing methods are also informed by many of the social sciences, particularly psychology, sociology, and economics. Anthropology is also a small, but growing influence. Market research underpins these activities. Through advertising, it is also related to many of the creative arts. The marketing literature is also infamous for re-inventing itself and its vocabulary according to the times and the culture.

So as you can see marketing is a very complex subject that is linked with advertising and branding. It is ever evolving because human wants and needs are ever changing. Technology is the main reason we change what we buy, but there are other reasons, too. Fads and trends also dictate what we buy. It is the task for marketing experts to discover what these trends will be. One of the primary sources for discovering this is market testing.

Online market testing is done all the time, typically for one product at a time. Checking the search engine tools we can discover what people are searching for online. The frequency that a keyword or key phrase is used gives us an indication of just exactly what people were searching for during the previous month and the same is true of trends.

In the early 1960s Professor E. Jerome McCarthy of the Harvard Business School established the four Ps to be:
1. Product
2. Price
3. Placement and
4. Promotion

Product is the process of marketing that establishes the wants and needs of consumers or to be more precise the benefits that the product will produce for the end user.

Price is simply determining the cost of an item done usually through comparison-shopping like-products.

Placement is only concerned with the distribution of the product or how it will be delivered to the consumer.

Promotion includes advertising, public awareness, and branding and speaks of the various ways get the word out about the product or company.

So although advertising is a part of marketing, marketing is also a part of advertising, and mixed up in there is branding as well. To market a product you need to advertise it, but the advertisement needs to include some aspects of marketing to be effective. Branding on the other hand is how a company or product is recognized. It also utilizes marketing, but is used in advertising. Branding is simply establishing something unique or exceptional about a product or company.

Branding recognition is accomplished many times by a logo such as the McDonald’s arches or the Nike swoosh. You know when you see them what to expect. In the case of McDonald’s, you think of one of their sandwiches or meals. This instant recognition is what you want, but in some cases it has been taken to far and refers to any product of that kind. To sight an example Kleenex has lost their branding because many people refer to all facial tissues as Kleenex.

Marketing and advertising are the means by which we get branding to work for us, but that is not their only function and certainly not their main function. Their main function is to promote a product or service to potential customers. How this is done is where the problems begins. First off you need to grab the potential customer’s attention. This is done in a variety of ways. Using artwork or having a catchy headline are two ways to accomplish this.

Once you have grabbed their attention, you need to keep it by telling them how they will benefit by using your product or service. This is best done by helping them to envision themselves benefiting from whatever it is you’re selling. One way is to tell a story, another way is to give examples and yet another way is to list the benefits descriptively.

I have been studying marketing, advertising and branding for more than 20 years and I’m still learning. For you to learn more you will need to study more and test the ads and other marketing pieces you come up with to see how well they work. The best advice I can give you is to keep trying, because you will never have 100% success. Just when you think you have it down you will come up with a marketing piece that bombs.

I’ll tell you a secret that you can use within ten minutes that could substantially benefit your business. And it’s strange because, unless you happen to live within ten minutes of me, there’s no way you can compete with me or steal this almost zero cost, local traffic (and if you do live nearby, stay off my turf or I’ll break your legs). You can however do exactly the same in your local area without fear of me coming round your place with hired goons and a baseball bat.

Recently, I’ve been getting my house renovated (if ever you wish to go grey with alarming speed, this is the way to do it). It means I’ve had to go to a very popular hardware store near my house countless times. This hardware store gets tens of thousands of customers every week. That’s what I like to call offline traffic (there’s loads of it about and pretty soon, you’re going to learn how to harvest it). A while ago I noticed that this hardware store had an advertising podium on a very prolific spot near the tills. I had seen loads of people buzzing around it before, checking out the various advertisers displayed. It costs £20 to place an ad there for a whole week.

Did I place an advert? Most certainly – but I put it with a very specific SPIN. You see, you have a lot of builders, plumbers, decorators (etc) visiting this store frequently. This is a group that is always looking for new business. A group that is not particularly tech-savvy. A group that are increasingly looking to set-up a web presence. In short, a group that would benefit greatly from my site design & promotion services. As you might imagine, I placed the ad for website design services targeted to this group. The response? Far more than my design team (currently one person) could handle. And a bunch of leads pestering me to let them know the minute I had availability to service their order. Now I don’t know about you, but that’s the kind of result I like from twenty bucks of advertising.

Now this method is one very small strategy you can employ to get big gains for your online business using offline advertising. I could literally think up HUNDREDS of variances to this theme. You see, many physical stores that get tonnes of customers offer these advert spaces and you can benefit from them in a pretty big way:

- Place an advert in the popular health store and drive traffic to your highly related health food website. Immediately you have targeted traffic that will click away at your Adsense displays, affiliate links & purchase your health eBooks.

- Put an advert around local gyms and get traffic to your fitness website with the same results.

- Place your “make m.oney” type adverts around smaller newsagents (one ad I place costs me £2 [about $4] a month) and watch the steady flow of traffic come in.

You get the idea. And this is just ONE offline strategy. There are countless other ways to drive traffic & sales to your online business. Here are a few additional ones for you to consider:

- Classified adverts placed in local papers & magazines.

- Radio & TV ads – contrary to popular belief, there are affordable radio & tv adverts available to suit your product.

- Flyers – very inexpensive to get out, yet can be incredibly responsive depending on the type of niche you’re in.

- Coupons – issue coupons that can be redeemed at your site

And believe it or not there are even more. Hopefully, this article has taught you that just because you have an online business doesn’t mean you should turn your back to offline advertising. In fact, these rather ignored strategies can account for the bulk of your traffic, subscribers and customers once you put them into place.

Maverick Money Makers Review with [Vicky Lynia]

Hi my name is “Vicky Lynia” and welcome to my personal review of Maverick Money Makers. 

Check out the Video of Proof of income on the next page. It’s really exciting! 

If you are looking for a way to make money on the Internet and work from home you have found the perfect website to help guide you in the right direction. 

There are many work-from-home programs on the Internet today that will promise you the world, however most of these programs don’t deliver on their promises. If you aren’t careful you will end up joining a work-from-home program that just takes your money and leaves you with an empty pocket.

I know from firsthand experience which programs actually work and which ones will just steal your money. See, two years ago when my company was having layoffs I was worried about losing my job, so I started searching the Internet for ways to create a part-time second income.

After investing 2 years of my time and over $10,000 in bogus money making programs I finally found a few work from home programs that actually work. Of the 20+ programs I signed up for only two of them made me money.

I am now happy to say I no longer have a job with my previous company. No, I wasn’t laid off, I decided to work full time with Maverick Money Makers. I have been consistently earning between $2,250 and $4,000 per month using these two work-from-home programs.

Maverick Money Makers is my top rated pick for working from home and making money online. 

This program alone has been privately helping people just like you and me earn substantial incomes working from the comfort of their own homes. Mack Michaels, the founder, has been able to help people with little to no startup capital earn six-figure incomes within 12 months of starting their programs.

Now for the first time ever he has created an opportunity open to the public. You can take advantage of his years of knowledge and experience and plug into a turn-key system where you can start using the exact same money making strategies they hes been teaching privately for years.

This club has been responsible for creating numerous online millionaires and has allowed countless numbers of people the freedom to quit their day jobs.

If you are looking to create a second income while still keeping your current job or if you are looking to create a substantial income so you can quit your job, then Maverick Money Makers can help you do that. 

The main reason this program is better than anything else on the market today is because this system was built for anyone who is willing to take a half hour a day and follow some simple instructions. Even if you have little to no computer experience you can make money with this coaching club.

I have researched and tested over 20 different work from home money making opportunities and nothing compares to the Maverick Money Makers club. Mack Michaels has a support department that is very helpful and always available. 

If you have any questions along the way he is just a phone call or a quick email away. The customer support you receive with this online coaching club is second to none.

The Pros: The system is 99% turn-key; all you need to do is follow some easy instructions and guidance and you can start making money online in no time. You will be very pleased to find out exactly how easy it is to earn money online once you get going. 

You can earn a consistent income working just part time from your home computer. This system has been proven to work time and time again and provides real financial results for its users.

I have personally been using Maverick Money Makers to earn money online, and I am earning between $2,250 and $4,000 per month consistently using his Video Tutorials Teaching. 

My close friends and family all use this club to earn money online and are doing very well also. 

This is a great system to get started with if you are new to making money on the Internet. This system will keep you from making all the costly mistakes most people make when they are looking to make money online for the first time.

The Cons: It was really hard to find a flaw in this system. It gives you exactly what Mack Michaels says it will give you. The only thing I could find that is a ‘con’ is the fact that you have to put in a little work at the beginning and a little work each week. 

Nothing much, but only a few hours a week to ensure that your income is flowing and a few hours to make sure that you’re completely set up.

Regardless, I find it fun. I’m sure you’ll find making easy money fun as well. Check out the Video of Proof of income on the next page. It’s really exciting!

One of the easiest ways of having a home business online, is through affiliate marketing. There are several companies with an online presence that are constantly looking for ways to get their name out and advertising can be effective as well as expensive. Companies are willing to spend money on advertising and are even more willing to spend that money on advertising that has proven to work. An advertisement in traditional sources such as newspaper, radio, television and on the internet can be expensive.

It is a cost that the advertiser hopes to recoup through increased sales of their merchandise or services. They are going to pay for the advertising space regardless of the return, even if they realize no sales from that ad. The only one benefiting from this process is the advertising venue. With affiliate marketing, you are telling them that you will place their ad on your website and only charge them if they make a sale.

The company designs the ad, you place it on your website and if a customer clicks on the ad and buys from them, you get paid the previously agreed upon commission. The company has an increase in sales, you get paid a commission for posting their ad. Everyone wins with affiliate marketing. However, how do you get people to your website? Many might ask why they should go through your site to get to another company when the only difference is in you getting the commission.

Marketing your website is the first step and today efforts are moving towards internet blogs to get people interested in what you or others have to say. A blog can attract visitors with the same interests as you and need a place in which to voice their opinion. Placing affiliate ads on your blog can increase awareness of those websites and if they pertain to information on your blog, can turn some of your visitors into customers.

There are several sites online which are basically portals to what they call shopping malls. A site that is nothing more than affiliate advertising where customers visit and can find what they are looking for, all under one roof, so to speak. Web surfers will take the time to seek out what they are looking for but there are many that prefer one place in which to find all their favorite stores.

In order to make serious money from affiliate marketing you have two choices. One is to become affiliated with very successful companies, which offer a high commission structure, or be come affiliated with several companies. Depending on the type of website and the amount of traffic you receive, will determine in which direction you should go in order to maximize your potential.

Many people get confused with the differences between Advertising Online and Online Marketing and after having discussions about this topic on several occasions the conclusion is most believe them to be closely related or one in the same. I will try to shed some light on these completely different methods of “Getting The Word Out” about a particular product or business using The Bow and Arrow as an analogy.

advertising is basically delivering a message by just shooting the message out to whom ever and hoping someone will see it and buy the product or service. This is like taking your basic bow and arrow and shooting it into the air and hoping it might hit the desired target, possibly a very expensive way of delivery because no one knows how many arrows it is going to take to accomplish the end result. “bullseye” I mean sale.

With Online or Internet Marketing a message is sent directly to the people in a predetermined target market ,people wanting what your selling. Just like a Bow and Arrow used in the field where a direct hit is what is desired. For this to be accomplished the proper equipment must be used. The bow is like the marketing system, it must be stable and of good quality. The arrow is the projectile delivered from the bow to the target without this the bow is useless. The marketing system without a means of delivering the message will also be deemed the same. The sight which focuses the arrow to the target with precision is like the fine tuning required in online marketing to deliver the message to precisely the right audience at the right time.

To find the right bow research must be done and questions asked. The same is true with finding the right online marketing system. Just as an archer wouldn’t go into the field with just one arrow ,make sure the marketing system has many ways of sending the message. Finally, when focusing in the sight for accuracy repetition is needed and small adjustments made. An online marketer will fine tune marketing strategies through small adjustments until the end result is consistent leads to sales for maximum ROI and profits.

I decided to try something a little different and illustrate the
marketing challenges of a small business. I’m using one of my
clients, PrescottWeddings.com.

PWC is an online resource guide for couples planning their
weddings. Along with a ton of information for brides and grooms,
the site includes a resource guide where local businesses can
advertise their products and services.

We launched PWC in November 2001. Like many start-up businesses,
PWC didn’t have much money for marketing. Yet we had two major
challenges (three counting the limited budget):

1. PWC had to attract two kinds of target markets to the site –
advertisers and couples — essentially at the same time. And if
that wasn’t bad enough, we had to appeal to each group even
though one was dependent on the other — advertisers wanted
brides and grooms logging onto the site, and brides and grooms
wanted a complete resource center.

2. Several bridal print publications had come and gone in
Prescott — and had burned their advertisers while racing out of
town. Businesses were understandably hesitant about sinking
their money into another bridal venture.

Armed with those challenges, we went to work. Now, just over two
years later, PWC enjoys well over 40,000 hits a month and has
increased its advertising base by over 600%. On top of that, PWC
is well on its way to establishing a reliable brand in not just
Prescott but throughout Yavapai County.

So how did we do it? A great Web site with great content plus
three main marketing strategies: 1) Using print to drive traffic
online 2) Thinking small 3) Frequency, frequency, frequency

I’ll cover number two and three in the next two articles. Today
we’ll talk about number one: Using print to drive traffic online.

The cornerstone of PWC’s marketing program has been print
advertising, more specifically monthly advertising in the local
newspaper. Print advertising is an excellent choice for many
businesses — from small to large. In fact, it’s not uncommon
for small and medium-sized businesses to build their advertising
program around print.

The strength of print advertising is its flexibility. Print
publications come in a variety of shapes and sizes. They can
appeal to a broad readership or a narrow one. They can be
published every day or once a year. This variety gives you a lot
of flexibility in fitting print advertising into your campaigns.

You can also track print to a certain extent (coupons in
newspapers for example). Print is physical, allowing your
customers to carry something around with them.

However, print’s weakness is also its strength. It’s a visual
medium only, so it requires more effort and interaction from
your audience to make an impact (they need to stop and read it).

In the case of PWC, we chose monthly advertising in the local
paper as the foundation of our marketing program. We decided
upon the local newspaper because it has the broadest reach.
Prescott isn’t big enough to have its own evening television
news, so the newspaper is the best vehicle for local news.

If you live in a big city, the local newspaper may not be
practical because of cost. In that case, you may want to try a
niche newspaper or magazine, like a business or lifestyle
journal, or maybe a regionalized newspaper. In Phoenix for
instance, the Arizona Republic is the main newspaper, but all
the cities around Phoenix, like Scottsdale and Tempe, also have
their own papers.

Because PWC is a Web site, there’s an assumption we should be
using only online methods to advertise. Online methods are good,
and PWC does use them, but they only take you so far. Print is a
part of the “real world” — something you can touch and pick up,
not virtual like a Web site. Print has also been around a lot
longer, and carries more trust with it. We found by using print,
some of that trust and “real world” essence rubbed off, making
PWC seem less anonymous and more like a “bricks and mortar”
business (a business with a store front).

Also, since we were trying to drive local traffic to the site,
it made sense to advertise locally rather than attracting people
from all over the world. But even with our local advertising, we
still have a substantial number of visitors from around the
state, including Phoenix and Tucson, as well as all over the
globe.

The point of our marketing program was to advertise regularly so
we could both build the PWC brand and drive traffic to the Web
site. Yet it was essential to keep our costs down. So we
leveraged our monthly newspaper advertising to stretch our
marketing dollar as far as we could. More on that and how we
“thought small” in the next article.

Over the past six years, I have been quite fortunate to go behind-the-scenes of over 200 companies and see how they deliver their message along with being able to see what’s working and what’s not working for them. Out of all those companies, I have edited different themed marketing videos for both offline and online businesses alike through my background in marketing and video production as a Producer and Editor. Several entrepreneurs are asking me if the new wave of online video advertising and website video marketing has anything to do with them and if it will effect them. They are also asking what are the real benefits of it and if it can even be used in their particular niche.

Online video advertising has seen a positive acceptance as we move to the Web 2.0 Phase, but what I tell these small to mid-size e-commerce businesses is to really focus on website video marketing instead for now. The reason I say this is that once companies have the right videos on their websites to test and track conversions, they can use that as a springboard to see if video advertising will be right for them over the next few years.

Right now, the acceptance of website video marketing is being taken advantage of by smart marketers and online businesses for several already known reasons along with integrated strategies within their own business or sales funnel. I’ll give a brief overview of both.

Some already known reasons on why video works within the web for e-commerce and direct sales is to educate consumers (edu-selling), building trust, informing web viewers about exactly what they want to hear without them getting lost in a long and boring sales copy while adding the human approach. Consumers appreciate companies that get to the point efficiently and clearly, how to navigate sites and how to get from Point A to Point B without the consumer getting lost. Statistics average that 70% of people are visual learners and can understand what they see in a visual way and more effectively, when it includes the narration or text overlay that connects the marketing message together in the mind of the consumer.

E-commerce, direct sales and multimedia marketing businesses use integrated strategies of video within their sales copy to give visual cues and careful placement so consumers know when to do what with a laser-focused call-to-action along with testimonial videos (the most powerful testimonial there is) that blend right in with the sales copy. Using video messages within the short opt-in form can replace a long sales copy on “Why you should give me your email address.” Consumers tend to appreciate this on opt-in pages because it takes down their skepticism and reassures them that they are giving their email to a real business who has invested time in providing value for them.

When seeing how your competitors, e-commerce and direct sales companies use creative video advertising and marketing solutions, ask yourself how video will differentiate you from everyone else and what direct response or branding message would be the most effective to get consumers to take action.
