The 3 Major Secrets to Successful Internet Marketing

By Phil Pieraldi

There are thousands of opportunities to make money on the Internet. The legitimate Opportunities are in the business of coaching you and working with you to help you to understand how to make money on the Internet. And it all boils down to Marketing.

But what is "Marketing"? Is it Developing Products and Services, Promoting Products and Services, Affiliate Programs, Researching, Website Development, Networking, Creating Videos, Writing Blogs,?

The correct answer is Yes, It's all of these and much more. For now though I will focus in on the three most important secrets of successful Online Marketing. I believe that these are the most critical to your success.

#1 Be Impressive
Whichever medium you choose to promote and get your point across; you must impress your consumer. I used to pitch my own songs in person to A&R Folks in New York. If they were not immediately impressed by the first 19 seconds of the Track they would move on to the next Track.


Your Consumer will not give you much longer than that. The first minute of your presentation or first couple of lines must be powerful. I recently saw an affiliate's Video where the on screen presenter paused 3 times within the first minute of the presentation and said "Ahhh", "Ahhh". That told me that the person wasn't sure of his product or what to say. I'll address this in more depth in a future article.

#2. Use Psychology
Study and Research the behavior of your potential Consumers. Learn what sector of the population you should target, What will your Consumer expect from your Product/Service and which medium should you use to reach out to your consumers.


For Example; Do your consumers frequent Video Sites or maybe your target audience is more likely to be found on specific subject Websites and placing ads such as Google ad words or PPC will work best.

You will want to understand a. Who Your Consumer is b. Where to Find your Consumer c. How to Promote to your Consumer These points may be easier than you think. A couple of hours of research will give you these answers .

#3. Separate Your Campaign From The Pack
This could be the most important secret to promoting on and off the Internet. Most Product/Services promoted on the Internet have to compete with hundreds and possibly thousands of similar Products/Services.


You must be creative in promoting your Product/Service and in the offer that you deliver to the Consumer. If you can find ways to narrow your pitch to a very specific population such as Geographical area, you will find less competition.

For Example; If you are offering Audio & Video Services predominantly in your Home City; choose keywords that are Geographically specific such as Orange County NJ Video Services.

This restricts your competition greatly and could put you on page one of most Search Engines. Remember that your strategies in Marketing will ultimately determine your success.
