Internet Marketing is not a Business Plan!

Monday, 14 December 2009 11:19 Last Updated on Monday, 14 December 2009 11:25 Written by Mike 0 Comments

Today there are hundreds, even thousands of people online trying to make money.

From my own personal experience I would guess that between 98% to 99% of these people utilize Internet marketing as if it were a business plan.

Internet marketing is not a business plan, but rather a set of ideas, tools, and utilities that we use to market our businesses.

It’s my belief that so many Internet businesses are failing because of lack of direction.

Once again, Internet marketing is not a direction, but a set of tools that we utilize to market our businesses.

For those who want to start an Internet business, what you need is a direction!

If you love Internet marketing and all that comprises it, that’s great.

But in order to become truly successful with your online business, you need to have a direction, an idea, and a business plan.

If we take a look at all of the very successful Internet marketers, do we see them teaching Internet marketing?

Yes and no.

But, what we really see are successful people teaching only one aspect of Internet marketing at a time.

So rather than simply teaching how to Internet market, they are teaching one certain idea of Internet marketing.

It could be any aspect of Internet marketing, such as e-mail marketing, using private label rights properly, or using pay-per click marketing.

Let’s look at an example…

Have you heard the phrase Bum Marketing?

If you’ve been online for any length of time at all, I’m absolutely sure you have heard that phrase.

In fact, you probably even know the guys name that coined that phrase.

His name is Travis Sago.

Travis Sago’s business deals with nothing more than article marketing.

He doesn’t try to teach everybody how to Internet market, rather, he teaches people how to specifically use articles to drive traffic to their own or affiliate websites.

He has a specific direction, one simple idea he focuses on, and people hunt him down like the Bubonic plague to learn how he uses articles to drive traffic!

Does the thought of creating a business plan scare you and just sound like too much work?  Don’t worry, look up the book One Page Business Plan.

Got Direction?

Get one and watch your Internet business start to explode!
