If you answer “yes”, then good for you! If your answer is “no”, then perhaps Internet Marketing isn’t for you.
The point is.. you HAVE to be sociable, approachable and friendly, in order to succeed as an Internet Marketer. Building relationships and following up on them is critical to the promotion of your sales strategies or whatever creative ideas you have. “Guan Xi” is what we call it in Mandarin.
Most of you should know by now that networking is the most important step in growing and promoting your business. No doubt about that. Moreover, it should have been drilled into you that you cannot survive in the Internet Marketing world alone – you need to work together with people in order to progress and succeed.
Ever heard of the phrase “co-opetition” before?
It’s cooperating with your competition, i.e. your fellow Internet Marketers! It’s a strange concept to grasp initially, I know, but that is exactly what needs to be done if you’re thinking of making Internet Marketing your full-time “job”, or rather “project”, since I’m sure you enjoy this whole process, so let’s not dampen spirits by calling it a “job”.
Building these relationships with your competition will allow you to joint venture (JV) with them (yeah, yeah…the usual buzzword), and not only that, they’ll be in your opt-in contact list as well, and as you all know, “the money is in the list”. Your backend sales will explode through the roof with a powerful joint venture and subsequent follow-ups, and you can slowly start building credibility and most of all… a reputation!
Therefore, if you’re an anti-social internet marketer, it’s time to shape up or get another job! Harsh, but it’s true. Go out and meet people. Email the webmasters of certain sites that you admire. Get in touch and keep in touch with them. It’s invaluable to your online business. Most of the time, if these guys are internet marketers themselves, they’ll be delighted to know you.
It’s time to take action.
Don’t tell me I didn’t warn you.
