Chasing New Business?
Copyright © 2005, Aaron Snider

As well you should. New business is what makes the world go
round. Your business relies on new business to survive. To get
new business you must constantly change your marketing efforts.
But what about old business? Have you made a business crippling
mistake? Have you forgotten your previous customers while looking
for new ones?

There are many ways to advertise your business. What kind of
response do you get from e-zines, safelists, startpages, ect?
Email is a great way to advertise your business, you can email so
many people its hard to not get a response. E-zines are nice,
better response cause you can target your promotion a little more
than normal email. Start pages are good for Alexia ratings, but
not much more. What kind of response do you really see though?
0.2%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%? If you get even 1% response you are the most
fantastic copy writer and have the best product in the world. For
the rest of us we are exstatic when we get a 0.2% response or any
at all.

Well what about the people that do buy from you? Do you even
email them anymore? After you send your thank you for purchasing
whatever they purchased from you, do you ever email them again?
Well you should.

Lets take one person as an example. He/she buys an ebook about
making minisites from you for $19.95. What can we tell about this
person from their purchase? Well if they want to make mini web
sites, they must have a webhost. Maybe your an affiliate for a
webhosting company. Maybe they need products to sell on their
minisite. Maybe they need an ebook about copywriting for their
new minisites. Whatever else they need, they will buy it from
somebody. They have already bought from you once, why not buy
from you again?

When you make sales, make sure you have other products available
to make the one they bought perform better or easier to use. If
you sell one product to 100 people, then you sold a second
product (that made the first product easier to use) to 50 of
those people, you just sold 50% more products. You also just made
50% more proffit, and didnt spend any more on advertising as you
did before.

The point is, don't forget your previous customers. You will make
more sales on a monthly basis with 1-2 simple emails to your
previous customer base, and will significantly build your current
business. Your previous customers trust you, like you, have
money, and will buy from you again.

What the heck, lets all make a million.

Writer's Resource Box:
Aaron Snider has been marketing online for over 5 years. Started
on Ebay, but after paying fees with Ebay and PayPal realized he
wasnt making much money. As a result he started using Ebay as a
lead source. When customers would buy through paypal he would
follow up with new offers selling directly to his customers. He
has since created a new and exciting product that allows his
clients to do the same thing. In fact, with TheCustomerManager,
he shows you how to download your entire PayPal history and
build a very lucrative email list from your past customers.

Cheap web hosting

2006-04-12T05:45:00.000-07:00

Just ran across a great deal for web hosting. If you have alot of small sites and paying $3 per month, you are getting robbed. 5000 sites for $50 per month.

Affiliate programs

You can make money online by publishing websites and featuring the offers of merchants in the content of your sites. I build content rich landing pages and small sites in many niche markets.

Woo Hoo! I made some money

2006-04-05T05:44:00.000-07:00

After 2 weeks I finally made some money! A whole $1.18. LOL

I had actually given myself 1 month for this experiment. I have 2 hours into this project so I'm making about 50c / hour, not bad.

On a side, here is a guy that made $1million in 3 months:

The Rich Jerk

2006-03-23T08:30:00.000-08:00

One of the great "e-books" out there. I can't say enough about the thing. It provides many basic ideas to make money on the internet. If you are just starting out in the "information age," you are starting late and need all the info you can get. I have to be honest, lots of the info the Rich Jerk tells us is out there for free on the web. The only problem is that it would take most people 6 months to years to find it. I would recommend the Rich jerk to anyone.
