A Simple Way to Define Internet Marketing
Compare internet marketing to owning a piece of property on the interstate.
The normal ways to market your business is to put up a big sign, correct?
Or run an ad in the local newspaper.
Or perhaps hang up a couple flyers.
All of these methods cost money.... some of them cost LOTS of money... and if you take the signs down, or quit running an ad, your business will slowly trickle to nothing.
EVEN with a sign on the interstate, you have to MAKE IT COMPELLING enough to get people to stop by your store.
With INTERNET marketing, you ALSO have a piece of real estate - some call it virtual real estate.
AND..you can have the most beautiful piece of real estate on the internet, a store front - or website - but without traffic, it will never yield you any profit.
You have to do internet marketing to get traffic to your website.
AND MANY OF THE INTERNET MARKETING BUSINESS METHODS ARE ACTUALLY FREE TO DO! This can be anything from writing articles to adding content to your site on a regular basis.
There are free ways to get traffic and there are paid ways, such as google adwords, etc. But the principle is the same - you have to market your business SOMEHOW to get traffic And watching as many internet marketing video tutorials as you can will definitely help!. So even though it may be a bit hard to define internet marketing to someone that has no clue how the internet works - as is the case with MY family - it still helps them realize in a small way that we are actually doing REAL business, it's just in an internet world... and instead of attending business meetings and dressing up every day to go sit in an office, we watch internet marketing video tutorials in our pjs...☺ And for someone like me, living in a small town of about 1300 people, internet marketing has opened up my business to a worldwide marketplace!
