Online Marketing Experiment
One thing I would like to point out is that it can be easily misconstrued that when participating on forums the objective relative to forum marketing is essentially self promotion.
While on the surface this may seem to be what the main motive is, I also want to point out that the real goal as far as I am concerned is to build relationships where all those involved succeed in their objectives.
Relationships are not all about me, relationships are not a one way street. When I am referring to relationships from a marketing or business perspective I am merely referring to the functional aspects of relationships.
In this case, functionally speaking, relationships are of mutual benefit. In online communities, be it on forums or social communities all of us are seeking something.
Your purpose from a business perspective is to provide solutions to problems be it through a product or service.
On this video I go over what tools I use when forum marketing so as to get the best results. In my humble judgment forums are all about building relationships. Provide good information for folks so that they can use what you suggest and in addition you will build a reputation.
In one respect its like a political campaign, you start by introducing yourself, then you move to explaining who you are and what you do. In a functional sense, building relationships will in effect build your business.
Finally the time has come where I will start sharing the sites with you and begin the marketing campaigns as mentioned throughout this blog.
Specific test results will be shared with those of you on the list as I know you are serious about building a venture online.
Over the coming weeks I will share what I do, provide evaluations and give you the methods to my madness.
In addition I will go through various other items which I mentioned earlier on, such as uploading a WordPress site using Cpanel or fantastico.
To all of you who have stuck in there with me, I appreciate it and together we will succeed in achieving our objectives that is if we understand each step we take and take action.
Failure is only an option if we fail and do nothing else, whereas if we understand why we failed then we will put ourselves on the right track to succeeding.
Failures are merely check points that help us to determine that we are off track, once we adjust based on understanding we will get to our destination.
Best Wishes
Paul
