"An Internet Marketing Seed"
Author : Lao Anthony
Dear Fellow Internet Marketer,
I was watching this outstanding video which focuses on the much
needed concept of creating a product that will allow you to
expand eventually into other markets because the people that
initiallly buy your product will also buy your next products
because of the close relation of the products to each other. You
see this is about creating an internet marketing kingdom, a
virtual empire of products that all start with one tiny seed
that is planted in the fertile soil of those hearts that are
eager for your particular product. For example, I am in the
process of creating a set of onlline videos where I teach
students the various techniques needed to speak English. My area
of expertise lies in the field of ESL(English as a second
language) of which I have been blessed to have over 10 years of
experience teaching to adult learners. My target market would be
foreign adults who wish to learn English via video. I realize
though that if I wish to branch out and sell different yet
similar products later I will have to pick a product that these
learners would also enjoy. I remember having some great end of
the semester food parties in the classes that I taught where
both myself and my students brought in dishes from other
countries that many enjoyed and this lead me to the idea of
having an esl cookbook with recipes submitted from actual
students and selling that cookbook to other esl students online.
Branching out even further if there was enough interest in the
cookbook a cooking forum could be established as well as an
online cooking class with graduates of my esl video courses
eventually teaching the course. But It is amazing to see how all
this began from this one little seed namely the online esl
videos and spread to a cookbook, a cooking online school and a
cooking forum. As we all know marketing is a numbers game and
the bigger of number of people that you have on your marketing
list the better your chance of survival and dominance. Think
about your seed before you plant it. You want to plant it so it
can grow and grow and grow into something huge. When you look
into the jungle what do you see trees, trees and yes more trees.
That is what I want my product to turn into names, names and yet
more names of individuals who want my first product and my
second and my third and I could go on. The cool thing about it
is that those who may not be interested in esl may be interested
in cooking and vice versa. I could use the cooking bait to reel
in the esl fish and use the esl bait to reel in the cook book
fish. Boy, I hope all this food talk is not making you all too
hungry to finish this article. I hope it is making you hungrier
to find a product that you can develop or a market that you can
enter that has the potential to be that seed that which will
turn into money jungle. This will give you the freedom to spend
time doing what is really important not just going to a job you
don't like just to survive. I hope to create an online marketing
kingdom where I am the king and my wife is the queen and my
daughter will have the choice to attend college or as the
princess of the family become the boss while the queen and I
enjoy our travels. It all starts with this one seed. The Bible
talks about having the faith of a mustard seed and what can
happen if we have just a bit of faith. We have to have dreams,
big dreams and seeing those dreams become realities is quite
inspirational and shows that this internet marketing thing is
real. No one in your circle of naysayers can argue with your
results unless they choose to be up against the truth of your
success.
Much Continued Success,
Lao Anthony
