7 Top Thing to Consider for Beginners of Online Marketing

1.Get a Coach/ Mentor: this will cut down your learning curve find a system and work the system. Listen to your coach and do the things they are saying they have been where you are and can have you avoid some real time consuming mistakes.   

 2. Build Your List: the money is in the list you have heard that and if you have not heard that you soon will. Do the things you need to do to build your list. Set up your splash pages, set up your auto-responders and your tracking so you know where your traffic is coming from, don�t get distracted with everyone out on the internet and every shinny new thing.   

 3. Stray True To You: You want to be a match for the company that you are working with to stay true to your values. For instance, if you love cooking with organic ingredients and you are selling non organic beef it may be going against your value system and you sabotage yourself out the gate.  Be true to yourself don't just go after the commissions. You want to enjoy what you are doing, that is the name of the game and make money doing it! That is worth getting on the computer even after a long days work so remember stay true to your values and interest do what you love!

 4. Be Original: I don�t mean don�t follow the trends or the items that are hot in your market. What I do mean is think of different ways to reach your audience. Remember people are looking for what you want, but it needs to stand out. You need to offer real solutions to their problems in a creative way. Don�t forget about offline marketing your website and links in area�s that you know people who are interested in what you are offering would be.  

5. Build Value For Your Customer. Look from their point of view. Remember if speaking to beginners put on your beginners mind and walk them through the steps. If you are speaking to your blogging audience what are you giving them to assist them in some way, give your knowledge in the area that you are promoting, ask your audience to comment and give you feedback, so you can be more effective.

6.Stay Organized, this will help you in the long run with your entire business, and make finding things easier. Also you will spend less time with distractions or irritations if you know where things are located.

7. Last But Not Least Keep The Right Mindset: �Attitude Is Everything� listen to a motivational tape or speaker a least once a week if not an hour a day to assist you with your mindset. The more you grow the more your business will grow, if you are doing the right thinking and things to move you forward your business will grow. Stay focused.
