If you are not using the most cutting edge internet marketing traffic strategies that involve web 2.0, blogs, articles, video, email marketing campaigns, list building techniques and many other methods in an integrated online and off line synergistic marketing effort YOU JUST LOST and your Competitors are BEATING YOU!

But I don’t know how. But I’m not sure what to do. But it’s too expensive. But I don’t need to because I have a (insert product name here) and I get all of my traffic from people in my store. But, But, But……STOP. As I always like to say, get the Buts out of the way.

Ask yourself this question “When was the last time I looked in a phonebook?”. Google and other search engines are now the Yellow Pages of the world. “But that’s only for products that have a National appeal” you say? The answer - Absolutely Not.

How do I know this? Let me ask you this question “How can a local restaurant owner make over $95,000 in 2 months, with a $50 advertising budget, without cooking a single meal or having customers come to his restaurant?” True story. How can this story be yours?

So what next?

1. Learn what is available to you in your local area. Internet Marketing is not as difficult, expensive or irrelevant as you think. How do you find someone? Google your local area and the term “internet marketing” or “seo” or “internet advisor” i.e. internet marketing santa rosa

2. Watch what is happening on the search engines. Go google yourself or a word that people would search for when looking for the products or services you provide. Where are you in the Search Results? If you are not to be found you have just lost potential customers

3. You can do a lot of research to determine what to do next or do what I suggested in topic #1 above. People call me all the time and I give them fre.e information on what they can do and I give them access to low cost and even fre.e resources to get them started. And I don’t make a single dime.

4. TAKE ACTION. Without this last step you’re finished. Hang up the hat, take down the shingle, call it a day, whatever….because you will be out of business soon. My formula for success is: Desire-Action = Frustration, But Desire+Action = An opportunity to LEARN.

The world has evolved, have you? If you do not evolve, where will you be in the next 6 months or 6 years? Internet marketing and search engine optimization is changing how we do business right now and those who adapt, evolve and take action will win. The question is, Will You?
