Key Definitions for your Internet Business.
Internet:
a place for you to make money.
You:
all that is required to start a business on the Internet.
Your own business – (Starting humming ‘money for nothing’) whether your young or old, broke or wealthy, connected or disconnected, lucky or unlucky clued in or clueless. You want to have a business, with little or no money involved in the start up – then use this multi trillion dollar playground- slash – money center- slash- free for all,where you can claim a stake as easily as Donald Trump or Bill Gates.
Self education and applied consistent effort:
required to be successful anywhere.
Mass Marketing:
doesn’t work on the internet.
There is no center – no main mall, no place you can guarantee eyeballs.So “they” don’t have an advantage. The one who works the hardest (and the smartest) has the advantage, Its (almost) a level playing field
Direct (response) Marketing:
invented for the internet (see Frank Kern videos)
The internet is the best place to sell Directly (almost) one to one to a buyer. (you are the seller). Unlike late night TV pitches – you can have a response to your ‘pitch’. Your prospect/buyer/victim – can use, and will use email, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook or no response to tell you if you are making progress.
A (targeted) list of email names:
Gold. Wealth.Security. Your financial security. Worth working for and at. If you have a job what do they pay you for all that work – after the work. Nothing. A list is your money in the bank. Your capital that pays dividends forever.
Not a purchase list or a scoopred lkst or a random spam list. A list you have built up, or sdomeone else who will ‘lend; you their list has built up, where everyone on the list has put up their hand (digitally as it were) when they were asked – do you like X, and if I had it would you buy it?
(see opt-in page, Squeeze page, list building, niche markets)
A Random List of email names:
nothing. Zero
Profitable internet Business:
one that makes money. (duh) So if you have an ‘idea’ or a ’cause’ or a ‘brainstorm’ you think the world is waiting for – and it is met with silence, and no money. Its not a business idea you want to pursue ( see crazy). Next.
Dont hang onto hobbies and call them a business. Hang onto a business and have unlimited hobbies.
Good Internet Business model:
a web page or site that makes you money.
Great Business model:
a web page or pages or web site or sites that makes you increasing amounts of money without you doing anything further.
Income:
desired. If self produced. (NB Being paid is not a good thing, long term – no control, no future (see depression)
Residual Income:
Success! An income you own , that comes in even when you apply no further effort (think beaches)
Internet Guru:
someone who makes a lot of money on the internet with above type of businesses, and will make money from you and some point.. The question is, the only quesion is, will you benefit as well. Sometimes yes, sometimes no.How do you find out. As John Reese says. Test. Test. Test
Failure:
Required. Not as a destination, as an action. You think that internet software will make you rich – go ahead try. It doesn’t. Learn and move on. Dont be afraid to Test.Test.Test. (see John Reese)
Applied effort:
required. Not an option. No matter what ‘they’ say – all business is work to get it going.
What the Internet allows is an ongoing business, a residual income business, a low start up business cost, a failure rate that doesn’t kill you, a place you can fail (safely) and if you work and follow a proven model (and there are many), or work and fail and work and fail, until you create your own business model – guaranteed success( whatever that means to you)
Scarcity:
Off-line economic thinking. Its about control and command. Although of course there is no true infinity in our material world,nevertheless the concept of ‘thinking’ scarcity limits you, as it is intended. (The Wall Streets bankers , please note , are never thinking scarcity – after all there’s always more bailouts when you need them)
Abundance:
A thinking model that works on the internet. There’s always more people to get on your list, there always another affiliate program if this one doesn’t work, there’s always another opportunity on the next page, and there’s always more people than you can ever reach.
Think abundance. Always. In giving, in earning, and always in relationship.
