The Biggest Mistake I Made in Internet Marketing

I made the biggest mistake when I first started in Internet Marketing. Let me give you a little background on myself. Professional musician and 27 years as a sales manager and sales trainer in the Automotive industry. I knew just enough about websites and how marketing took place on the Internet to be dangerous. I thought I would be able to just sit right down and start blasting out links and articles and videos and engaging in social media.

Man was I mistaken!

I made the biggest mistake I ever made in Internet Marketing just like most of you. I was overwhelmed with information and could not process it all fast enough so I thought I would try a little bit of everything all at once. I was article writing,tweeting,on Facebook,video marketing,placing classifieds and everything else. You see I was so busy just trying to get my name out there in the market I forgot one thing.

I wasn't really good at any of this stuff!

After months of very little success and frustration I contacted one of the trainers in our staff and she set me straight. Here is what she told me.

"Craig, you are so busy trying to attempt every type of marketing strategy you are not mastering any of them."

Well I'm sure you have all heard the saying "Jack of all trades, master of none".

That's exactly what I felt like after talking with her. She told me to put everything aside and focus on the one type of marketing that I was the most comfortable with. So I started focusing on video marketing. I was comfortable being in front of the camera because of my musical performance background. Then she gave me one more hint to give me a hand up on tying video marketing in with article marketing. After making my video I would also write an article about the same subject.

You would not believe how much easier the articles would flow right of the keyboard since I already had the entire subject already on video and embedded in my mind.

After that the ideas and articles just flowed like water and so did the leads and customers.

Once I had master the art of video and article writing I moved on to the next form of marketing and put in place the same practices. I hope sharing this with you will help you in your journey in Internet Marketing.

See you soon,

Craig White

Re: Kevin's Case Study #11 - A New Forum Category? Re: Kevin's Case Study #11 - A New Forum Category? - Hi Kevin, Like GT suggested, I also think you can add Internet Marketing as a sub category in the Marketing section and also a Social marketing as subcategory. Online marketing/internet marketing/online promotion are the same, and it will be best to use the common term - Internet marketing. I can't think about someone to moderate a Social Marketing category. We all use it, we all know how to make it work and we all have our own different experience with it.
Internet Marketing Conference on SLife Internet Marketing Conference on SLife - I've been trying to log in but it keeps crashing.. anyways.. a friend of mine in BC plans on holding Internet Marketing Conferences on SecondLife and have the same top internet marketers that would normally be in Live Internet Marketing conference speak. Income will be generated from admission charges, product sales during breaks, sponsor tables, etc etc.. Just to get the ideas flowing in your head that anything you can do in the real world can be replicated in SL. There is no planned date as of yet for this conference.
Re: Hi from a Manhattan coach Re: Hi from a Manhattan coach - Hi Julie, Welcome to the forum, it's great to have you here and thank you for telling us a little about yourself. You sound like a very enthusiastic person who likes what she does and in Internet Marketing that is very important and you also sound like a 'people person' which is great. Internet Marketing is time consuming and challenging but can also be extremely rewarding and hopefully profitable. I don't know how many forums you have signed up to but this is one of the best. The support and guidance you get here is what makes it the success that it is but as I am sure you know from looking at the side bar that there are many aspects of business that are catered for here which will help you along the way, best wishes, Mal.
Re: How many mambers of this forum are also member of WF? Re: How many mambers of this forum are also member of WF? - Hi Kevin, I have to agree with Tanny. All forums are unique in their own way, but doesn't mean that one is better than the other. What you might get out of one forum, you may not get from another. For instance, the WF focuses on Internet Marketing, while this forum focuses on Entrepreneurship. Each has their own set of benefits. I don't think you can really compare one to the other, unless of course they focused on the same topic. I have learned a lot from this forum, stuff I would never have gotten from the WF. With that being said, I've learned a lot from the WF, specifically since I need to know about Internet Marketing and running an online business. The addition of the Online Business forum here will help, and Jeff is doing a great job as moderator.
Kevin's Case Study #11 - A New Forum Category? Kevin's Case Study #11 - A New Forum Category? - Hi Everyone, 2009 is a new year and I'd like to create a new forum category to jazz things up! In the past, there's been some interest voiced about adding a "Social Media Marketing", "Online Marketing", "Internet Marketing" or "Online Promotion" category. I'll implement [u:1g2tv6tf]ONE[/u:1g2tv6tf] of those new categories, but can someone first tell me what the difference would be between the existing "Marketing" section and one of those new options mentioned above? Thanks
