Wise Marketing, Learning the Hard Way
Stephen Meyer
I joined a new Affiliate Marketing program about 5 weeks ago. The intent was and is to make money from a home based business. So far I'm very satisfied with the business plan but not so much with my achievements in this particular adventure. That's because I didn't pay close enough attention. I ended up spending a lot of money on useless advertising programs.
In the home based business field there are literally hundreds of internet companies that promise to make the newbie Entrepreneur wealthy by drawing in targeted traffic through their advertising programs. Having bought into a few of them I can say for a fact they are junk and are simply sucking money out of the new wannabe marketer. Better said, they don't work. But of course I learned this the hard way having bought into several blast your ad to 10 million web site advertisers and others. of course they do blast your ad to 10 million sites and of course you get 0 results.
There are many other programs available to help the newbie grow his business. Often these programs promise to make them wealthy in a short period of time. Mentoring programs are on the top of the list. While there are a few that will actually produce very good results if the new marketer stays with the program long enough. Most simply do not provide quality results.
When it comes to Affiliate Marketing or Network marketing mentoring programs usually do not help because these are very wide open programs. These are not Niche markets or even close to being one.
Although I think I know it all it turned out I am a very slow learner. I've been getting what seems like a million emails all from companies I've spent money on and worse yet, one's I simply inquired about. The email campaigns are ruthless. They are also ineffective because I'm not interested, but they send them anyway. So I religiously as if it is a duty quickly delete the emails and empty the trash.
Being the hard learner that I am I also deleted the emails from the program I signed up as an Affiliate with. I tend to learn the hard way so I decided to take a look at some of the emails, from my new program. What I found was all my searching was a big waste of time because the new program I signed up for not only has a great Affiliate program that can produce pay checks if done correctly it also has a plan teach you how to make money with the program. What to do and how to do it was right in front of my face the entire time.
I have looked at many marketing programs over the years and almost all of them have a marketing strategy in place. I'll admit that some of them are very weak and won't really produce like most want but they are there anyway.
Having looked at many online opportunities and promotional companies I known there are many companies that will simply sell the new person a bill of goods and products that simply will not work. The online marketing industry is huge and a large percentage of it is aimed at the inexperienced newbie knowing very well their thirst for success will cause them to buy into their program no matter if it holds real value or not. Unfortunately there are far to many new people who are just starting out with a home based business that fall for the traps and spend money on things that will not work.
Many online companies have been around for many years and are experienced in promoting their business. Many of the newer companies have been started by people who have been in the online business for years and have a lot of experience to offer. They all want their company to succeed and they know their success depends on the success of their representatives. Most offer top notch marketing strategies and products that will not only build their company but they will also build yours. Your company needs to be the first place you look for successful marketing ideas.
