An Online Job? You Need to be Trained in Internet Marketing!

I don't think it takes very long for anybody interested in working form home or starting an online business to realize that online jobs, online businesses and work from home opportunities offered on the internet are all about internet marketing.

This is the first thing you need to get straight. Almost without exception: online jobs = internet marketing. No, it goes a little further: online jobs/online business = internet affiliate marketing

Unfortunately (and I say this from trial and error, from wasting money on useless affiliate products) the vast majority of these so-called opportunities for which you have to cough up anything between between $50 and $100 to get nothing but a superficial e-book, does nothing for you to to become an internet marketer and to establish an online home business. These "companies" and individuals are just too happy to have you part with your precious (and scarce) dollars and then dump you and leaving with you with nothing, zero, zilch to enable you to promote anything.

Wow, I have learned the hard way! But you know what, it was through the scams that I developed my Internet savvy, becoming Internet streetwise, internet wise, wise in this confusing and overwhelming Internet Jungle. So perhaps the scams serve a purpose, but it shoildnt be necessary for anybody to be ripped-off time after time before finding legitimate and credible opportunities to earn an income online.

My rant was prompted a few minutes ago when I received a promotional email from SpinSuccess.com, promising me hand-submission of my affiliate websites to all the major search engines and further submission to thousands of smaller search engines guaranteeing thousands of visitors to my sites. Their website is very appealing and I almost fell for it, my internet wisdom and all! Fortunately I decided to Google SpinSuccess and low and behold there I found triedandtested blogspot to bring me to my senses and re-affirm to me that you can never, but never drop your guard when it comes to the Internet. If it looks like it's too good to be true, rest assured, it is too good to be true!

Great Affiliate Programs are rare and difficult to find, but once you've found them and they can impart knowledge and skills to guide you in a professional and systematic way towards internet marketing success - stick to them, implement the techniques to drive traffic to your sites and you will succeed! You need to get the fundamentals right first, and all else will follow - the mullah too!

What's All This Fuss And Buzz About Network Marketing?

The Profusion (and Confusion) of Affiliate Marketing Opportunities on the Internet

About three months ago, as I started dabbling in Internet marketing opportunities, my first experiences can be best described as total confusion and getting completely lost in a very murky labyrinth of hundreds of big-money-from-home opportunities flaunted on the Internet. 

Along with the confusion and exacerbating my disillusionment, came the shocking realisation that many of these "quick-rich" affiliate marketing opportunities were scams and rip-offs.

In my quest to find Internet related opportunities to earn a living, I have been caught for a sucker more than once and have also lost money in the process of buying in on some of these "opportunities" in the belief that that the sweet sales talk in which these "products" are wrapped, couldn't possibly all be lies! It must be due to my nature, which perhaps is somewhat gullible, but more trusting the innate goodness (also implying honesty) of humankind.

After my three months sojourn of exploring Internet marketing opportunities I am a wiser, less gullible person. Still believing in the goodness of my fellow human beings, I am now more wary of the vulnerability of human nature, particularly when it comes to the temptation of greed.

To cut my somewhat lengthy introduction short, I have extensively read and studied and researched IInternet marketing opportunities, strategies and techniques to the present point where I can say I am marketing and succeeding in Internet marketing. My home business is working and it is growing. I am no guru, not by a long shot, but I know the essential basics about Internet marketing, affiliate marketing and, alas, network or multi-level marketing.

Network Marketing: The Internet's Cinderella

Network marketing is frowned upon by many and spit on by some Internet marketers and even avoided by some Internet directories and because of this, I initially shied away from network marketing opportunities. "They are pyramid schemes", I thought. I thought multi-level or network marketing was a typical example of a scam scheme, an Internet rip-off. I avoided familiarizing myself with some affiliate network marketing opportunities because I was under the impression it is about enrolling people into the scheme without a product/service or a dubious product or service and that it was all about building layers of people joining and earning commissions from their enrollments rather than from earning revenue from the sales of the company's product and/or service. To me this was like contributing towards blowing up a bubble and because the network had nothing to sustain it, the bubble was bound to burst or, at least, deflate, sooner or later.

These would indeed be pyramid schemes and it is because of illegal pyramid schemes and dodgy network marketing companies with dodgy products or services that network marketing got its bad name.

Don't Throw the Baby Out with the Bath Water!

It was only later that I discovered (out of curiosity about people's testimonies about the leveraged income possibilities with network marketing) that network marketing opportunities offered by reputable companies with real, substantive and marketable products and services offer the enhanced income generating opportunities for an affiliate Internet marketer.

The reason network marketing offers increased income earning potential over regular affiliate marketing opportunities is because of the network or down-line of people enrolling under you through whose sales you will also earn commission.

The implication of this multi-level income generating model is that once your down-line is firmly established and successful, your business goes onto auto-pilot and your income becomes passive income, like the passive income from an investment. Hence, a carefully selected network marketing enrollment offers an Income For Life opportunity into retirement.

Essential Selection Criteria for Choosing An Affiliate Network

1. The company whose affiliate network you consider to join must have credibility and reputability. Don't rely solely on their sales pitches and other promotional material, Google the company and search for them in forums and blogs on network marketing.
2. Don't join before you have established exactly what the products and/or services are. If there is vagueness about what they expect you to market, be skeptical. To me total openness and transparency about the products and services is an essential prerequisite for affiliating myself. If you cannot establish this beforehand, chances are good the network marketing is more about building the network than centering on the marketing of the product. When the incentives for recruitment are greater than for product sales, again, be very skeptical.
3. Establish the appetite in the market for the products and services offered. How has the product been selling? Are their clear signs of growth? Is their a demand, preferably internationally, for what they are offering?
4. Can you identify with the products/services for sale? If not, how would you succeed in marketing these offerings enthusiastically and honestly?
5. Determine the level of support, the availability of promotional tools and process guidance you could expect from the company and your up-line.
6. Transparency about your marketing efforts. For example, would you be able to track visits and conversions to your unique affiliate website/s?

A Last Word: Assessing Affiliate Networks Calls for Greater Scrutiny than would be in the case of uni-level affiliate marketing products due to the potential pit-falls of multi-level marketing as I have alluded to earlier on in this Hub. The negativity with which network marketing is viewed by some in the Internet marketing community and broader society are compelling enough reasons not to compromise any of the criteria I have listed and to go for only the top-notch companies, like a Top 50 Inc500 Listed Company

If you make the right choice, to combine Internet marketing with network marketing presents you with a very powerful affiliate marketing opportunity.

An Internet Marketer Selling Lingerie Online...

An Internet Marketer Can Sell Online - Even Lingerie

I have been out of circulation for a while and have not posted a single blog or an article for about a month. The reason: I had to attend to lingerie matters. Yes, lingerie matters and now I am also revealing my interest and investment in something of a much more traditional and conventional nature; being an importer, wholesaler and retailer of...women’s underwear, or lingerie rather. My perception of the term lingerie as opposed to “women’s underwear” is that it denotes chic, class, sophistication, style, fashion, designer, etc., while underwear is just, you know – bras and panties...Some people are in the women’s underwear business, others in the lingerie business. My business falls into the latter category. You get the idea?

How come lingerie?

So yes, I am an internet affiliate marketer and a marketer of my own imported and exclusive lingerie. And I am a man, with the rationale for my involvement and interest in the lingerie business being firstly my admiration of feminine beauty and my appreciation of the importance of lingerie in enhancing femininity, feminine beauty and sensuality and, secondly, my identification of a market for broader and more exciting and exclusive lingerie ranges in my country, South Africa.

As you become knowledgeable about internet marketing, you realize the internet has no limit to where you can market

In exploring affiliate internet marketing opportunities and learning about the incalculable possibilities and techniques that can be applied with relative ease to bring in substantial income, it struck me how I could utilize and exploit the internet as a marketing platform and tool for my lingerie business and create an audience, a public visibility infinitely larger than my little boutique in Cape Town, South Africa could ever achieve. Hence, the re-focusing and re-alignment of my business from an importer/small-shop-retailer to an importer/large-scale-wholesaler with the world as my oyster...

Online Auctioning and Wholesale Selling of Lingerie

I have just started advertising and selling lingerie over the internet and it produced great results within one week. Not by selling individual items, but by selling in bulk at wholesale prices on a South African e-commerce and online auction site called Bid or Buy. And, hey, my profit margin is bigger than my expensive little boutique in a shopping mall, because it’s costing me almost nothing to sell over the internet and I turn over large quantities at a time. Compare this scenario with the overheads of the lingerie boutique with its staff salaries, rental, maintenance etc. with only the local community and seasonal tourists as my potential market. My lingerie business: Linda Mujer Lingerie (this site was designed to focus on the shop only and will soon change dramatically) is now being fully integrated into my internet marketing web-activities. You know what, I think I must shut the little shop...This is really how I feel now and only after my successes with one online site. I haven’t even touched eBay!

Internet Marketing Opportunities in Developing Countries

Before we Start, Chuck the Term: Third World

At the outset, and without wanting to offend, please allow me to caution about the use of the term "third world". "Third world" and "third world countries" are dated and politically insensitive terms, having the connotation of inferiority, backwardness, sub-standard, low etc., and also denotes inferiority of the people of those countries. Something like: "Third grade people live in third world countries". It is terminology associated with and rooted in imperialism, colonialism and the oppressive regimes of the "superior conquerors"

Perceptions of and Approaches to Developing Countries are Crucial for Marketing Success in those Countries

Notwithstanding the above and without venturing into the very role of imperialism and colonization in the creation of these discrepancies, the reality of wealthier and poorer nations cannot be negated. Hence, the more acceptable and less patronizing terms for "third world" would be "developing countries", or better still, "emerging market economies”. I think a shift in how people in emerging market countries are referred to and perceived would probably be a prerequisite for successful business and marketing ventures in such countries. It is inevitable that the perceptions and attitudes about the people targeted for marketing purposes will infiltrate the marketing approach and strategies.

Developing countries: Fertile Ground for Home Business Opportunities

Human beings have vastly more in common than the differentials of income, status and standard of living. As much as poorer people may not have the material means to be perceived as potential customers or clients, as much should their aspirations, their drive and hence their potential to achieve and succeed never be underestimated. With this in mind I have no doubt that the market for products with skills development and income generating components integral to them, is absolutely massive and gravely neglected in developing countries! Just consider this against the background of the sky high levels of unemployment in developing countries. In the vast majority of cases unemployment = poverty. However, unemployment does not equal a lack of ability. More often than not is it merely about the absence of opportunity which is sadly overwhelmingly more prevalent in emerging market economies. Furthermore, there are a disproportionately higher number of well-qualified and computer literate unemployed people in developing countries compared to the number in developed countries. Hence, developing countries offer very fertile ground and untapped opportunities for quality home based work and business opportunities.

Internet Affiliate Marketing is Ideal for Developing Countries

This is especially true for internet marketing type positions that require a nominal financial investment to get started, and more so for affiliate marketing positions where the products have been tested and tried and where comprehensive guidelines for an effective internet marketing campaign are provided together with the tools, including product websites, to greatly enhance the chances of marketing success.

In considering the developing world for marketing purposes it must also be borne in mind that all developing countries have a strong developed component. In fact, there is a middle-class boom taking place in most of the developing world with the economic growth rate of many developing countries by far surpassing that of developed countries. This is the reason why these developing countries are also referred to as emerging market economies. It tells us a tremendous lot about the potential of these countries for new business opportunities.

As a person from a developing country, my primary focus as an internet marketer is without doubt on developing countries and my successes, within two weeks of starting off with internet marketing, with the promotion of the Top 10 rated home business opportunities, can bear testimony to that.

The Foggy Labyrinth of Internet Based Home Business Opportunities

Finding legitimate Work at Home Programs on the net is not a walk in the park. No, my friend, you quickly find yourself lost in a murky labyrinth of dubious get-rich-quick schemes. I am saddened by the potential of the internet to defraud and exploit people,especially those of us who are not motivated by greed or some easy additional income, but who are compelled through personal circumstances, such as disability, to work at home.

The Quest for True Value

There must be many thousands of people out there, who, like me are in search of legitimate opportunities to work from home. Not because we are too lazy to get up early for work, or because we are greedy or opportunistic, but simply because we are compelled by our unique personal circumstances to work at home, and more specifically, to do something that is internet based.

The More Vulnerable

Who are these people who have a very limited choice about their work environment and the type of work they are capable of doing? Perhaps it is a single mother with a special needs child. Perhaps a middle-aged man who was retrenched from his job and is unsuccessful in finding alternative employment due to the specialized nature of his qualifications and experience. Or perhaps it is someone, like me, who is confronted with a disability at a later stage in his life. A disability preventing him from practicing his profession any further. A person whose dreams were shattered when he was at the pinnacle of his career. A person forced to go on disability retirement prematurely without the financial security to afford retirement. That is me and I'm convinced I'm not alone. At the age of 48 I unexpectedly and abruptly suffered a loss of hearing with such rapid progression that at 50 I had less than 30% hearing left. I am highly qualified social services professional and my entire career had been all about working with people for people. Not the type of work you can do when you cannot communicate verbally.

The Potential Behind the Disability

I like my computer, though, and I am fascinated by the potential and power of electronic information and the internet as an information source and marketing tool. Moreover, I have the ability to string a few good sentences together and enjoy it to put pen to paper, or fingertips to the keyboard, for that matter. Hence my venture into a search for a work and income generating opportunity which is internet marketing related.

The Disgrace of Internet Scams

I have spent days on the internet searching for something legitimate, but have been mainly dismayed at what is being flaunted as instant roads to riches schemes, requiring you to subscribe and pay without knowing what you will be marketing or what the strategy would entail. Once you've subscribed (yes, I have been conned out of desperation to find something real), you discover that it is nothing less than a groundless pyramid scheme with no substance whatsoever. Shame on the fraudulent inventors and perpetrators of these scams!The fact the I have been exploited and conned is of little relevance, what is of more concern to me is that there must be many vulnerable others whose situation is more desperate that mine who have been abused and defrauded by these conmen and women. As much as I stand for freedom of speech and the liberty that the internet provides, as much do I believe that the lack of control over internet fraudsters erodes the moral fibre of the online community and stains the enlightenment of the age of information technology.

The Good News: Legitimate Opportunities are Available

At this point I need to caution, however. My litany must not be construed as a blanket condemnation of all internet advertised work at home programmes. This lens should rather be interpreted as a call to caution, especially for those who are in a similar situation to me and are therefore perhaps somewhat more vulnerable than those who have broader career options.

There are indeed some highly legitimate work at home programs offered on the internet. Opportunities through which you can enhance you knowledge and skills and use it in internet marketing with the potential to produce significant income. They are often of an affiliate marketing nature, which means you become an affiliate of a company to market that company's products or services via the internet. These good companies not only provide you with all the information you need to market their product, but they also impart the knowledge, skills and tools to embark on an effective internet marketing campaign. One site that I can highly recommend identifies and describes a limited number of real and legitimate work at home opportunities. The site can be accessed at:
www.t10wah.com/3498.html

The programs you will learn about here all have potential to produce significant income, but not if you are unprepared to put in some effort or unwilling to explore the myriad free marketing opportunities the internet provides. The programs will guide you to these opportunities, but you will have to work them.

I wish you abundance and for new doors to open for you as they have for me.
