Mobile Tech Computing Future

Friday, July 18, 2014
Who says innovation is dead in America? Every time I turn around I'm reading an article of another innovative entrepreneur in the personal technology space. And, the rapid increase in new innovations in mobile computing technologies is a bit overwhelming, and we have been inundated with new ideas and great concepts for over a decade. Many people thought that after Silicon Valley crashed, that was that. But now we see companies like Apple, Google, and others have been coming out with new innovations faster than anyone could have imagined.

There was a very interesting article in Forbes Small Business Magazine in April of 2005 titled "Cell Calls by Balloon? And Arizona Entrepreneurs Cheap Weather Balloons Are Replacing Expensive Telecom Satellites," by Justin Martin of Chandler Arizona. In this article, a small business person was using a weather balloons with a device not larger than a 4 one-gallon milk container dangling from underneath.

Internet and Business One Bite At a Time

Wednesday, April 2, 2014
A family friend once asked me, "How do you eat an elephant?" When I didn't know how to respond he said, "One bite at a time."

This seems like either an obvious statement or an attempt a humor. For Internet marketing it is perfect advice.

There are multiplied millions of web pages available online and multiplied millions of web sites to consider.

How can a new website manage the marketing of a site that will exist in the midst of what may seem an infinite number of other more established websites?

One Bite At A Time

You won't be able to accomplish all your marketing goals overnight, but if you systematically forge a path through a jungle of marketing roadblocks you may begin to observe others who are able to find the path you have forged and venture back to your online store.

Just like a jungle the undergrowth can become pretty thick so it takes ongoing effort to keep the path to your site open and unobstructed. This can mean tracking down broken backlinks as well as developing new marketing strategies.

As more traffic comes to your website the easier it becomes for others to find it. A path is worn to your site and motivated consumers share details on how to get to your site with others.

The process may seem painstakingly slow and you may wonder if there will ever be any positive outcome to all the time and labor you have invested in marketing your site, but there will come a time when you suddenly realize you do not have to work as hard at marketing to see new customers.

Additionally, the costs that were incurred in hiring the services of a stock broker are also substantially eliminated..

These benefits can be enjoyed fully when investors choose the right online stock trading platform. As much as there are so many companies that broker trading options there are also many trading companies that offer accounts that enable one to trade in stocks.

The first consideration to make when choosing the best online stock trading company is the reputation of this company. There are several ways that you can ensure that a company is most capable of handling your money. Use online portals that rank the popularity and legitimacy of the company. It is also good to inquire from fellow investors about the companies that they are using to trade their stocks online.

The best online stock trading company is the one that offers relatively low commission costs for an account.

Trading companies have their way of making money from the online business, and one of those is through the interest rates that are generated by your account balance. However, it is important to note that the online trading firms that have bigger well established brand names may have higher commission costs than their counterparts.

Marriage of Internet and Business

Monday, March 31, 2014
The first time you got online, you probably felt a little lost. There are a lot of things to do, but back when it was new to most people, email, games, and finding web sites for laughs were the top things that people did. Today, Internet and business go hand in hand, and there is so much more to your simple stroll through the inter-webs, as some call them. You can play and look for information, but you can bet someone, somewhere is looking for your business and is trying to draw you in.

That sounds like a bad thing, but it really isn't. Though there are some that use the Internet and business connection to make money off of your without your consent. When you give a web site your personal information, they may sell it to someone else. This can be scary, but for the most part, they are not giving up information that identifies you as a person. Your name and address are usually safe. Most information that is sold is stuff like your age, where you go online, and other things that help advertisers know where to target you for ads. If this bothers you, read privacy policies on any web site or application before you sign up. You can always go on to something else.

Don't assume that everyone is going to sell your information out from you, but you should check in. On the other hand, you have to understand that shopping online is a great way to find what you want and to get it for a better price. This is the best part of the marriage of Internet and business. Not only can you find things that you can not find anywhere else, you can usually find better deals, even when you factor in shipping. In fact, many web sites will throw shipping in for free if you spend enough money. For some, spend as little as fifty dollars and shipping is on them.

The Internet and Business Online

The internet, as people are beginning to find out, is a great source of information, of knowledge, and of wealth. You can begin a business and do business no where else but online. You can make money from a small website or a large one, depending on how much time and energy you want to put into your online business.

Beginning to make money using the internet and business online means just about the same thing as starting a business anywhere else. You're going to have to take stock of what the needs are for a business. You will also want to look into ways that you can address them better than your competitors. Finding not only the right business, but the right way to accomplish it is the key to making the most of any business.

For the internet and business online, let's face it, there has been a serious glut of business beginnings and not all of them have been, or will be, successful. Many people approach it as a hobby that they will give five or ten minutes time to each day. Others will ignore it for weeks upon weeks and then wonder why it didn't make money for them or work out.

Building any business will take time. Start by writing a business plan for your online business. Decide what you'd like to sell or offer to your customers. If you're a great designer, or a superb web security specialist, it's not enough to be the best that you can, and to offer a great website.

Quick Guide to List Building

List building is a tedious and time-consuming process. For online businesses that have been in the online world for a long time, they know that building a list is an important factor to make money.

For businesses starting to go online, it is important to build your list as early as possible to introduce your business to a market that shows interest in your products and service.

Here are steps on how you can quickly build your list.
  1. Lure customers with the details of your products. Online users have become smarter on choices of what to read and what to buy.
  2. Since they only see pictures of the product, they often research about details of the product to keep them well-informed.
  3. Let the clients know what the purpose of your products is and what your intentions of communicating with them are.
  4. Build a list with potential prospects. Remember to narrow down your list to potential clients whom you know will stay with you and will buy your products and services.
  5. The number of traffic in your website will not determine your number of sales.
  6. You should stick to your list and constantly communicate with your clients.
  7. Don't ask too much information. It is annoying for any person to be asked about a lot of personal information. That can be a waste of time for some people.
  8. It is important to narrow down the information that you will ask. Ask only the most important questions to build up your list like name and email address.
