How You Can Make The Web Your "Warm Market" | Why The Internet As Your "Warm Market"

Normally a person turns to their warm market such as friends, family, co-workers and neighbors for business prospects and customers as an easy alternative. Learning how to drive traffic to your business from the internet can replace that warm market prospect process.

This article shares some reasons why the internet can replace your warm market. Using the internet to make new friends that will be interested in learning more about you and your product, service or business.

The process works for me, it works for all the people I have in my organizations and it is working for millions of others as you’re reading this. If you follow a system, you can eliminate the two biggest challenges you face when getting started in your new business; finding people to talk to about your business and dealing with the
rejection that comes from talking to people that you don’t know.

Why the Internet can replace your Warm Market:

1. Convenience:
You can send an Instant Message to someone any time it is convenient. Morning, afternoon or evening, you can chose from millions of people that are Online at the same time you are.


2. Direct access to more people
Every day, you can connect with millions of people on the Internet. Long distance and time zones cease to exist when you use messaging. You can meet someone Online and establish a business relationship anywhere in the world, and you don’t need a passport to do it.


3. People are easier to approach
Sending a message to someone Online is an easy way to connect with a stranger. On the Internet, The branding of your name and profile will position you to be liked by anyone you contact. They provide enough information about you so you are not a stranger. If you contact people that share your hobbies, interests or personal values, they will respond. Don’t you?


4. Rejection is eliminated
Rejection disappears on the Internet because you know a great deal about someone prior to sending them an instant message. Everything they have written about themselves in their profile is your open invitation to contact them.

You can recognize the people that will be interested in what you do by reading their profile. Instead of going through the traditional rejection numbers when you approach a stranger in person, you will find that eight out of the ten people you contact with a message will be agreeable to looking at your business.

5. Targeting is easier
Whomever you prefer talking to about your business (network marketers, doctors, teachers, stay at home moms or people in any type of profession), it is easier to find them Online and communicate with them through internet with a message than it is to walk into a room full of strangers.

It is also easier to find people that share your passion for a hobby. You can make a new friend by sending a simple instant message.

6. It’s more fun
Communicating with someone in a message is fun. Chatting with someone that shares common interests with you is enjoyable and can be rewarding. You choose who you want to connect with.

How To Do Online Business Advertising

If you are serious about doing business online, it’s important to learn how to do online business advertising. Whether the traffic source is free or paid, if you do not understand the basics of doing online advertising, the traffic you’ve generated will be wasted.

Recently a ‘rich’ surveying company advertised with us. When I looked at the ad, I almost fainted. It was a simple sign up form, expecting people to sign up without telling them anything about the company or the offer. Isn’t it common sense to ask oneself “will I act on this ad?” before one spend money advertising the ad?

In today’s discussion on how to do online business advertising, I’m going to share with you 3 “MUST-HAVE” elements in your ad before you even start thinking where to advertise it.

Hope that helps.

1. WIIFM “in 5 seconds”
WIIFM stands for “what’s in it for me”.
If you don’t tell people what’s in it for them, they are not going to be interested in your ad, not to mention taking action.

The problem with many advertisers is that their WIIFM is scattered all over the sales copy. One has to seriously read through the sales copy to identify them. Unfortunately, most sales copies are not read and thus the WIIFM message is not delivered.

For effective online business advertising, your ad must address the question of WIIFM within 5 seconds after a prospect first look at your ad. If not, you are losing them, period.

This means your headline, subheadline and the first paragraph of your sales copy play an important role in deciding whether a prospect will continue reading your ad or simply leave the page.

2. Become their friends “in 10 seconds”
Once you successfully capture their attention with WIIFM, you next objective is to gain their confidence in you and/or your offer.

Common ways to achieve this include the follow tricks:
- adding testimonials, especially ones with photographs;
- showing your own photograph and disclosing your name, email address and even contact number;
- showing other proofs such as earning screenshots, samples of completed work etc.

3. “Impossible-to-miss” call for action
Lastly, you must tell your prospect what to do next.

The problem with many advertisers is that their call for action is hidden somewhere in the sales letter. If it takes even 10 seconds for the prospects to search for the call for action, most of them would rather click the close window button.

The 3 elements above are the bare minimum that you must have in your ad if you want to do any online business advertising.

In additional to these 3, try to build a list regardless of what online business you’re advertising. The main advantage of online advertising vs offline advertising is that it’s easy to capture clients’ database. In the world of business, winners are those who own the customers. Think Walmart vs wholesaler. Think Ebay vs its sellers. The ones with huge customer base win. Regardless of what business you’re in, you are in the business of building customers.

To your success!
