Do You Hate Doing Market Research?

Well, if your answer to the above is a loud YES then you’re not alone. The so called “gurus” say that targeted Internet marketing really is a science and should not be treated lightly. Guess what? They then sell you the “solution” in the form of e-books and reports.

I’m not knocking any info-product out there but just to be honest the Internet marketing ‘experts’ have gone too far nowadays. Sucking blood from green marketers online just doesn’t sound right.

Don’t you agree?

Secret #1: Know Your Marketer Before You Buy From Them

Yes, you can get recommended to a certain marketer who sells you a product and off you go to their sales page. It might be a good read up and some nice tips about targeted Internet marketing being mentioned. Nine times out of ten the information products you read are really junk.

You need to absolutely know the person that you are buying anything from. At least, you have been communicating with them in some forums or perhaps personal emails or blogs. Those that don’t reply you or looks ’shady’ should be virtually deleted from your shopping list.

Secret #2: Doing Market Research, The RIGHT Way

You can just go to a keyword tool and type in your targeted keyword. Look for the number of searches, compare the competition online in the search engine results pages, then market. So, you’ve done your part in executing a targeted Internet marketing campaign. Right? Wrong. The reality is market research is simple but you need to follow a proven set of principles.

Let me show you how some good marketers do it. Look at your email inbox, go to Google and see your competition. Find out where they market and what they do. Next step is easy. Just market more aggressively than what they are doing.

Secret #3: Sell Then Talk Later

It wasn’t until recently that I’d discovered you don’t have to follow the old adage that says, “build relationships first“. You can certainly get people to be more responsive by giving them a reason to trust you.

Ultimately, if you do targeted Internet marketing chances are your leads or visitors are already pre-sold before they even go to your website.

You should always think about your bottom line and don’t be shy to ask for the sale. Why bother to start a business at all if you are not going to ask for the money? So, next time you feel like hanging onto your promotional offer remember this. Targeted Internet marketing has already brought potential buyers to you. Just sell.
