Starting to build an internet marketing promotion enterprise can be as simple as ABC and very lucrative. In fact when it comes to the marketing side of the business, there are only three key elements that are required.

1 Generate leads. There are so many options when it comes generating leads, so in that regard, this is the hardest of the three because you have to pick the most effective ones and stay focused.

2. Make sure the leads are targeted ands fit your ideal prospect list.

3. Follow up with those leads. You may have heard ‘the fortune is in the follow up’ and that is so, so true. I always follow up via telephone whenever possible and use an virtual assistant to also automatically follow up with them over time until they are ready to join my business, where that is 2 days, 2 months, 2 years or however long it takes. The great thing with a virtual assistant as by far the majority of follow up is done for me on my behalf. Talk about creating time freedom, it’s amazing.

When it comes to succeeding to what ever level you want to in your internet marketing promotion business by following these three marketing steps you will get there. In fact because they are that important to your marketing success, I am going to devote a separate article to each of the three steps. Lets begin with step one which is driving traffic to your blog.

Obviously I am making the assumption that you already have a blog. If you don’t, please stop reading this article and get in touch with me so that we can get one set up for you. Then come back to this article so that we can show you how to get unlimited leads with your blog.

Great. So I am assuming you have a blog set up? Thinking of the “perfect” system for getting traffic to your blog, what do you believe it must have?

Thinking of the ideal system for getting leads, I believe it should include the following…

1. Run on autopilot so it is not taking very much of your most valuable resource, your time.

2. Generates names addresses, and email addresses of people who respond and are interested in knowing more about your specific product or service. You really should be using an autorersponder virtual assistant for this. If you are not sure how autoresponders work and how they can save you so much time, be sure to ask me.

3. A powerful and effective way that automatically follows up with these people with your valuable information about your product or service.

4. Been able to use the right mixture of high tech and high touch that builds that all important know, like and trust with those on your list.

5. Will give you a predictable result if you follow the system. Just like McDonalds does. We both know McDonalds have lousy burgers but their global success is built on the predicable and duplicatable system.

When it comes to the very best system that includes all five steps and will give you quick and predictable results, it has to be content and article writing. That has a blog as its nerve centre.

Unlike advertising, this strategy helps you build credibility and, overtime, a steady stream of highly qualified prospects. If you don’t have an hour or two per day to write and submit articles you can automate the process by subcontracting a service such as article writing to a third party or ghost-writer.

If you prefer you can out source your articles and get someone else to write them.

Follow up is something, which if you have any contact with clients, in any way, must be part of your business. Unfortunately statistics strongly indicate that most businesses, especially small businesses fall short of what is needed to make the sale.

One of the huge benefits of having an internet marketing promotion business is the ability to automate your follow-ups with virtual assistants. Every time someone contacts you for information about your business, simply add that person’s email address to your list of prospects and then periodically send follow-up messages to that list.

“Think of Follow-up as an investment of your time that pays dividends and will bring referrals from your clients in droves when done properly.” — Brian J Fanslau

The importance of this cannot be underestimated. Time and time again internet marketing gurus tell you that the money is in the list. This is not by accident. We online marketing specialists know that this is fact. The more people you have on mailing lists that are interested in your products or services, the more sales you will make. And remember, the majority of this can be done automatically without you needing to be personally involved.

The key is making your message not be about asking them to buy, or constantly supplying them with more info about your product or service. It must at some point take on the flavour of providing them with something that will directly benefit them. We’ve all seen this and probably been part of it. Basically this means creating and/or sharing items of high and relevant value that you can give away, while simultaneously building value in your brand, your company, or you individually with your clients.

It’s easier to do than you might initially think. The internet is the easiest place to find free content that you can share with your customer base. An example might be to search and locate articles of interest and relevance, copy the link then paste and send.

If you can search, read, copy and paste, you have created a very simple yet powerful mode to follow up without being a creative writer, or videographer and spending thousand to produce content. You can simply copy the link, and in the subject line write “Article of Interest” and in the body, types “Please accept this short article I read. I found it very enlightening and thought you’d find some value in it”. Click send and you’re done!
