The word viral marketing is tossed around right and left in internet marketing. Viral Marketing is a phenomenon that facilitates and encourages people to pass along a marketing message.

Viral marketing depends on a high pass-along rate from person to person. If a large percentage of recipients forward something to a large number of friends, the overall growth snowballs very quickly. If the pass-along numbers get too low, the overall growth quickly fizzles.

If you can get something to go viral on the internet with a link back to a site you are promoting you can write your own paycheck.

Article marketing is one method of viral marketing. There are thousands of websites, blogs and ezine publishers begging for content. To get your article into publisher’s hands you will need to submit them to article directories, forums and newsgroup announcement lists.

There are hundreds of article directories that let you freely publish your articles to their sites. You can search of these directories using your favorite search engine. Some of the top directories include:

Ezine Articles

http://ezinearticles.com

Idea Marketers

http://ideamarketers.com

GoArticles

http://goarticles.com

What makes an article become a viral marketing tool?

Relevant information – information that is right on the pulse of what’s going on in your niche. For instance Google is hot, hot, hot right now in internet marketing. There are thousands of internet marketing articles on how to earn from Google. If you are a smart internet marketer you find something linked to Google and grab on because everyone is selling it and everyone is buying it. If you can’t think up new material on Google or don’t have an original idea don’t worry you can still participate. If you have recently purchased a Google related product write a review. People will appreciate the feedback. If it is a popular product there are people doing keyword searches for that specific product and possibly finding your review.

No matter what niche you are in find the hot topics and write new information about the topic or write a product review. The hotter the topic, the more people are looking for it. Publishers are going to be more willing to publish a hot topic item that is well written.

Your bio must be up to par and fit in with the theme of your article. Nothing would be worse than to write a killer viral marketing article and that is passed around like a hot potato only to get no traffic because of a bad byline.

Relationship Marketing2 The Disadvantage of Transactional Marketing and Why You Should Focus on Relationship Marketing
The disadvantage of transactional marketing is that though you may be able to sell your product quickly, you aren’t building any sort of standing relationship with your customers. If you want to succeed in business you must be able to build and maintain customer relationships. Repeat business is the recipe for success.

What is Transactional Marketing?

The focus of this method is getting Point of Sale transactions by exercising methods commonly referred to as the four P’s.

Product – Making a product that meets the demands of the consumers. Pricing – Establishing a price that is both profitable and attractive to customers. Placing – Setting up an efficient distribution system for the product. Promote – Creating an appealing image and advertising it.

The most common place you see this type of marketing is when a company claims that their product X is better than anything offered by the competition. Sometimes these claims are unsubstantiated and rely only on their hype to catch the attention of prospective customers.

So what is the answer?

Relationship Marketing

This method can be applied when there are other products competing for customers to choose from and when there is an ongoing demand for the product or service offered. You need to focus on offering a good product and exemplary service to your customers. You want people to walk away thinking about the next time they will buy from you, or when they are going to tell all of their friends and family about what it is that you offer.

This is not to say that transactional marketing needs to be cut entirely from your arsenal of marketing techniques. It is still a necessary and essential tactic that should be used to build a client base. Even though the people you recruit from this type of marketing may not be repeat customers, if you treat them well and give them a good deal on a great product, they may carry your relationship marketing for you by word of mouth.

Sales Funnel11 List Building and Your Sales Funnel
You have probably heard different Internet marketers use the words “sales funnel.” Do you know what that means?A sales funnel really involves all the things you need to do to make a sale before the customer clicks that link to buy, and all the things that happen afterward. But where should a person be when clicking that first link? Opting in to your list! Never send someone to your sales letter before list building.If your list building page is about signing up for a series of tips or short newsletters, the very next thing your new customer should see is a thank you page, which says, “Thank you for joining my list, you may also find this interesting…” Then, offer them a product that fits you list building theme. “I read this ebook on (inset topic), and I would highly recommend it to you in preparation for the course,” for instance. But it can be an ebook, a piece of software, or a report of some kind that you got at ClickBank or MyFirstAffiliateProduct that you will be paid for. eigen zwembad . This the first way that you can start monetizing your list.Some of you are wondering, “How do I make that page come up after people opt-in to my list?”You do it through your autoresponder. Autoresponders allow you to add special links for the verification letter, if you don’t want to use their generic response. So, you upload your new thank-you page to your server, either through .FTP or the file manager. After you’ve done that, add the URL of your new thank-you page into your autoresponder. Then, the HTML code you add to the squeeze page for your opt-in box tells the autoresponder what to do–to send people to your offer, after they opt-in.You do the same type of thing when you have a product of your own. Instead of people being led to a “thank you for joining my list” page, they’ll be led directly to your sales page for your product because this time you’ve entered your sales page URL into your autoresponder. But what happens when they not only join your list, but buy your product?Your new buyer goes first to your payment processor, and unless your autoresponder and payment processor are the same, you’ll add the link to a “Thank you for buying my product, and you may also be interested in this…” into your payment processor for a back end sale. Does that make sense?It all comes down to doing things the right way:Create a list building squeeze page and get people to opt-in to your listWhen someone joins your newsletter, send them to a “thank you for joining my list” page with an offer.When someone signs up and you have a product of your own, send them to the sales page, then to the “Thank you for buying my product, and you might like this too” page for the back-end product.Try to keep your list of buyers in a group of their own, too. They’re your best customers, ones that will bring repeat sales.Don’t wait! Start list building today.Cynthia ~Social Cowgirl www.SocialCowgirl.com
