Delivering Value: Where Success Truly Lies

So I have been on hiatus from internet marketing for a couple of months, but in spite of this I have probably learned one of the biggest lessons when it comes to business in general. Successful business is about delivering true value. Let me explain….

One of my primary businesses has always been in the fitness industry in a more traditional business sense. One thing about the fitness industry and really any service based industry for that matter is its very easy to stop going above and beyond for your clients. The problem is you get too many clients, you don’t have the same sort of time to spend servicing them properly and standards begin to slip. This ultimately means that your business stops growing, and I truly believe that if you’re not growing, you’re dying.

Now, I can’t go into the ins and outs of how I increased a businesses turnover by 103% in the space of two months, but what I can tell you now is that delivering true value was the key!

This concept of delivering value translates into any business no matter if you’re an internet marketer, network marketer or traditional business owner. So the question now is, how exactly do you deliver true value?

When I asked myself this question two months ago, the answer for me was what does my competition do to deliver value and how can I structure my business to deliver more value or deliver value in another way. It is easy to look at the home business industry and look at all the great leaders and business owners out there and be bewildered by their success. However one thing that you can take comfort from is that they are generally no longer in the position to deliver the same sort of value that you are in the position to deliver.

Why? Because ultimately they just don’t have the time to spend delivering the same value to people one on one. Sure they might have employees or people within their business to still deliver value but that will generally be systemised or taught, it’s not the same as one on one attention that they were previously able to deliver.

If you can focus on delivering true unique value to people and you begin to be recognised for delivering value a very important shift begins, you go from just another voice shouting for attention to being VALUABLE!

Are you learning for the sake of learning?

When you’re just starting out online it is very easy to get into the trap of learning more and more things so that ultimaltey you know more and more about internet marketing. However the question remains when have you crossed over to learning for the sake of learning and not for the sake or the best interest of your business?

Well, to quote a previous post you need to keep it simple. One major mistake that newbie internet marketers make is to get star struck and focused on so many different internet marketing programs or leaders and wanting to keep learning more and more. However ultimatley what you need to do is choose a single program, mentor or training and then start implementing straight away. Put all other trainings aside, stop reading other books and stay focused on what you are learning and start putting it into action.

Success is ultimatley the actions that you do day in, day out. If you think about that for a second, its the actions its not your knowledge. Sure knowledge is important, but the smartest people in the world certainly aren’t the most wealthy in a lot of circumstances. Therefore you need to be an action taker and start implementing what you are learning, instead of looking to learn more. Learn something, implement, then look to learn something else.

The art of keeping it simple

One of the biggest mistakes that so many entrepreneurs are guitly of making is having too many projects on the go at once and not seeing the projects through to completion. Now, this might sound simple and basic but for some reason is associated with so many entrepreneurs personality, I know that I’ve certainly been guilty of doing this multiple times. I think this fact can be somewhat compounded by the numerous opportunities available online and its so easy to indentify a new niche, joint venture or business opportunity and want to get that kick started and getting your “fingers into that pie” as well.

However when it comes to online marketing 99 times out of 100 its not how many niches, opportunities or joint ventures that you are in that counts but its doing the day in day out income producing activities that are going to see the biggest results. Additionally its not  just the number of niches, opportunities and join ventures that you need to be aware of but its also keeping the overall stategies for each niche, opportunity and joint venture simple.

This means deciding on a lead generation strategy and executing it through to a point where you are bringing in strong, consistent leads. It also means not throwing product after product at your prospects as soon as they hit your sales funnel. Choose your products wisely and look to promote these over time, don’t just throw them out there at day 1.

Firstly you need to have your niche clearly defined, your strategy clearly defined and your actions clearly defined, from there its just a matter of reminding yourself daily what your strategy is and what you need to accomplish that day in order to get closer to achieving your objectives.

Sound simple? Well it can be, its really just a matter of a solid plan and discpline.

From here I really want to assist you to set up your sales funnel and hold you accountable to your business objectives, make sure you check out my business kick start program by going to http://www.markblomeley.com/kickstart.php.

The First Critical Step for Internet Marketing – Building your database

Building your database is very crucial. This is actually the first thing you would want to do if you are planning to start an internet marketing business. This list, containing information like names and email addresses or other details of your contacts are very important since they will be your potential customers who will be buying the products that you are selling.

Some internet marketers start building their database by buying a contact list from another person. This is not advisable since you will not be sure if all information is correct, and of course, the people on that list did not ask for information from you, hence, all emails you will be sending to them are considered spam mail. There are many entrepreneurs who just send out emails to different contacts without permission. This just goes to show that a lot of internet marketers still don’t know what they are doing. It is imperative that you start building your own list and build a good relationship with your contacts.

You can build your own database by setting up an opt-in form in your website. You can offer free gifts, or free information, or you can ask them to sign up in order to receive newsletters or other valuable and useful information. You have to provide them with a reason to give out their email addresses. Once they sign up, that means you have permission to send emails or newsletters to them. You can now start on building a relationship with your contacts.

There a lot of autoresponders available for you so you can keep your relationship with your contacts. You can set up an email campaign or you can send newsletters just to keep the communication going with you and your contacts. In internet marketing, it is important that you are “visible” to your contacts. Let them know that you are around and you can offer them something that is of great value and can become a solution to their problems. Aweber is one of the best Autoresponders that can help you set up your email internet marketing.
