How to be Truly Successful Online

July 28, 2008 By Mark Emory

So, the first thing you want to do to be truly successful online is to do the same. Study those online who are already successful and do what they are doing. Model your business after theirs. Follow their lead. When you see something working, try it yourself.

You don’t have to be a pioneer to be successful. You just need to follow a winner and implement the same ideas, strategies, styles, functions, features and purposes in your own original way. Motivational speaker Anthony Robbins once said, “If you want to be successful, find someone who achieved the results you want and copy what they do, and you’ll achieve the same results.”

That’s exactly what you want to do.

Borrowing Ideas and Strategies

July 23, 2008 By Mark Emory

Learn this truth, this strategy from the beginning, “wildly successful netrepreneurs ‘borrow’ ideas from others.” Most aren’t inventors or innovators, they are duplicators.

Now, let me make one thing clear before we inch a step further. “Borrowing” IDEAS is not stealing something from someone else. Deciding you are going to write an eBook on web marketing is “borrowing” an idea from someone else. Copying an existing eBook and using it as your own is “stealing” from someone else.

Developing your own search engine submission software is “borrowing” an existing IDEA. Swiping the source code of someone else’s software and repackaging it as your own is theft.

So, please don’t misunderstand. Wildly successful netrepreneurs don’t steal, but rather they “borrow.” They model their own project after someone else’s IDEA or STYLE or FUNCTION or FEATURE or PURPOSE.

Wildly Successful Netrepreneurs “Borrow” Ideas From Others

July 19, 2008 By Mark Emory

King Solomon said it best “there’s nothing new under the sun.”

Ideas are as old as time. And they keep resurfacing over and over again. The methodologies and formats and manifestations have changed…

…but the basic reasons why success is what it is, has never changed.

While some wildly successful netrepreneurs were indeed pioneers in bringing new previously unseen tools and resources and techniques to us, the overwhelming majority are nothing but good, old-fashioned…

…copycats. )

Don’t misunderstand. That’s not a bad thing. “Borrowing” ideas from others only makes good sense. Do you think Ray Kroc was the first guy who ever flipped a hamburger? And yet McDonald’s has become an icon in fast food because of the burger.

Was Bill Gates the first guy to ever write software code? No, he just perfected it. Well, not on my computer — darn thing keeps crashing! But, nonetheless, he brought an existing idea into prominence. It wasn’t his idea, he just “borrowed” it, injected it with steroids and mass produced it like never before.

People Are More Likely To Buy From Those They Trust

July 12, 2008 By Mark Emory

You’ve probably noticed that it can be difficult to get new customers to buy from you. Some people simply will not buy from those they’ve never heard of and don’t have a relationship with. You will usually have to “presell” to them before they will make a purchase. This is especially true since identity theft and fraud have become more prevalent.

The good news is that people will join your list because they view it as a lower risk than making a purchase. All they need to do is hand over their e-mail address and they are “in.” This gives you the opportunity to gain their trust and build a relationship that can lead to repeat sales down the road.

Why Build A List?

July 10, 2008 By Mark Emory

Before you start building your list, it’s important to understand why you need one. Sure, you hear everyone saying that building a list is the “thing” to do, but if you don’t understand the reasons, you won’t be as motivated to do so.

Tip #1 — Build Your Own Online Business

While there is a lot to be said for getting to the top of the search engines and advertising to promote your Internet-based business, there’s nothing like having your own list. A list is something that you control at all times. You control its size, your relationship with members, and even how much money you make.

By having a list, you are building your online business on solid ground.

That’s not to say that search engine traffic isn’t wonderful and you should quit advertising. However, developing a list of leads or customers can be worth much more to you in the long run when combined with both of those methods of traffic.
