Internet Marketing For Solopreneurs

December is an interesting month for many coaches, consultants, virtual assistants, professionals organizers and other self-employed solopreneurs. This is because in December people have to spend a lot of money on gifts, so they are budgeting and looking for ways to decrease their spendings on other things. When they do this, they usually cancel the professional services they pay for, such as coaching, professional organizing, services of virtual assistants and more.

As December is approaching, I have been hearing from many coaches whose clients are taking a break in December. Coaches report that 20-50% of their clients are taking a break, thus the coaches are getting 20-50% less revenue in December.

So what do you do if you have no clients and plenty of time in December? Spend the time on creating a teleseminar or teleseminar series that you can teach in January!

In January plenty of people are going to be looking for support with their lifes and careers. Create a teleseminar around the problems your potential clients will be experiencing in January, and you will be able to have a very profitable January.

What kind of teleseminars can you create? Here are a few examples:

- A financial coach can create a teleseminar on how to pay off the holiday debts faster

- A fitness coach can create a teleseminar on how to get rid of those extra pounds that people gained eating food during the holidays

- A life coach can create a teleseminar on how to finally reach your new year resolutions

Start working on creating your teleseminar now, so that you can announce it in January!

The Hollywood writers have been striking since Monday, November 5th. This action sent late night talk shows into re-runs immediately.

What is interesting is why the writers are striking. According to this article, writers are striking because they are looking for more profits from when their writing is used in new media. They want to earn money when their work is sold on DVDs, when their work is a part of online shows, etc.

As you can see, writers are paying attention to the Internet and new media and want to profit from it. And what they are looking for is a true passive income - they write their copy once, and they want to make money every time it is used or sold through the new media.

What about you? Are you creating passive income streams? Are you using the new media to profit? Here are some of my blog posts to help you create more products and profit from them online:

Have you ever heard the saying, “If you want to learn how to do something really well, teach it to others”? When you teach others, you usually gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for the material that you teach.
Teaching a teleseminar in something you know is also a great way to demonstrate your expertise to your potential clients and to convince them to become your one-on-one clients. Teaching teleseminars is an extremely versatile marketing technique. This is because it is very easy to use teaching to promote your expertise both online and offline…

Do you want to start a membership web site for your business? I have been running my members-only online business coaching web site at MarketingSalad.com for a long time and here is what I recommend.
Before spending the time and other resources on creating a membership web site, I recommend doing something that you should do before introducing any new product or service.

You should evaluate the idea with your target market in mind and see if there is a demand for this product among your target market.

Here are some questions to help you evaluate your prospective membership web site further:

- Who is the target market for your membership web site?

- Can your reach enough people in your target market to promote the membership web site?

- What kind of benefits will you be offering to members?

- How many levels of membership are you going to have?

- What kind of content will you have?

- How will you be promoting your web site?

Once you answer these questions you will have a much more clear vision on what exactly you want to create and who you want to attract to your membership web site.

What are leads? Leads are people who haven’t bought from you (yet), but are in your target market and have expressed some interest in what you do and what you have to offer.

With time, you can turn some of these leads into clients. One of the best marketing strategies for a service business owner is to get many leads daily and follow up with them in order to turn them into clients.

I have been generating leads for my business and helping my clients generate leads for their businesses for a long time. Here is a 3 point plan to help you get started with generating leads for your business:

- Define your target market. Who are the people that you want to bring to your web site and turn into leads?

- Create a compelling FREE product that you will give away to your leads in exchange for their e-mail address. The product can be an ebook, white paper, special report, audio, etc.

The medium of the product is not as important as the topic it’s on. The product’s topic should be very compelling, it should make your potential leads decide that they want the gift and give you their e-mail address in exchange for the gift.

- Now you can use a follow up process with your leads and turn them into actual clients.

More and more people have been asking me how to teach people in groups. Coaches, consultants, tutors and other solopreneurs are looking to make money and get more clients by working with groups instead of just working with clients one-on-one.

So, how do you get started with teaching people in groups? The first two questions you should ask yourself are:

- Who are your target customers?
- What do they need help with?

These are the first two questions that you should answer before deciding on the group format, number of people in a group, pricing, etc.

If you do not know who your customers are and what they need help with, you will not be able to structure your offer effectively and, as a result, will not be able to get people to register.

Do the first thing you need to do is to find your target market. Once you do, find out what issues they are experiencing and what kind of help they need. To get the most people register for your group you will need to offer them something they really want. You will need to create a very compelling offer.

So, what are your target customers interested in? They are interested in solving problems that they are experiencing right now.

Therefore, the best way to get into working with groups is by starting a group on a topic that is of great interest to your target market.

Once you know your target market and once you find topics that your target market is interested in, it will be much easier for you to decide on the format, length and pricing for your group.

Many people have asked me - what is the best marketing technique to use to sell more books? If I start blogging, will I sell more books next week? Will article marketing sell 100 more copies of my ebooks?

Truth is, no marketing technique - blogging, search engine optimization, article marketing or any other one - will increase your sales immediately.

What you need to find out is how a particular marketing technique will fit into your overall marketing plan.

Many marketing techniques are designed to bring people interested in what you do to your web site. However, those techniques don’t account for what happens AFTER you bring them to your web site.

If you do absolutely nothing in addition to blogging, people will come to your blog, read it, linger for a bit and leave. This is because there will not be any incentive for them to stick around.

People are bombarded with tons of marketing messages every day. Many of your blog visitors will forget about your blog and its address two minutes after they leave it.

Therefore, it is imperative to make sure that you can collect the e-mail addresses of people who visit your blog. If you can get their e-mail address, you will be able to e-mail them, market to them, and sell your books to them long after they have visited your blog.

You should do this with every marketing technique you use - figure out how to use it to add people to your list, so that you can continue to market to them long after they have visited your web site.

Next week I am teaching a free teleseminar, 5 Steps To Selling More Copies Of Your Book Or Ebook.
I will be talking about creating a marketing plan to promote your book online and get more sales. You can register for the teleseminar FREE at http://www.avocadoconsulting.com/books.html
