I am a non-techie book coach who has been in business for 20 years, but only Online for the past 2 1/2 years. I had only sold books and special reports for three months when I contributed to this book. Yet, in just three months I manifested amazing online profits. My second website’s first month’s sales were only $75 but the third month my sales had already grown 10 times and are still growing.–now consistently $3000.
How Did This Happen?
Certainly I’m not an overnight success. I had a huge learning curve. I kicked and screamed when business friends said, “Judy, you have to have an email account.” My web master friend said, “Judy, you have to have a website.” That was three years ago, and now I’m known as the person to help business people to write books and websites that sell, and promote their business online.
Creating an ezine or electronic newsletter is one of the best ways to let people know who you and what services you can provide. Be open to new ideas.Ask people who have a greater knowledge and expertise than you for their advice. You’ll find they’ll be more than willing to help.
My computer assistant and I work as a team–I write and create, and she offers technical support to get the word out to millions of Internet savvy people who want to buy online. We spend two hours a day, three days a week on online marketing.
I’ve discovered that marketing is everything and that online marketing is so much easier, faster, and more profitable than offline. Online marketing is convenient! You don’t have to travel; you don’t even have to talk to large groups or sell products at the back of the room. And like me, you can sell many more products online each month than through traditional publishing and promotion methods.
Online costs are low: no printing bills, no wrapping, no postage, no trucking, no inventory, and no sales tax. Another benefit? Your customers are happy because they get immediate delivery of their products to their e-mail address.
