Attract New Clients Today! Three Proven Methods.

By Bernard Scala

The secret to having a wonderful product is selling it. Your product might sell itself, but if no one is seeing your product, then it has no chance to sell.

The best way to ensure your product is seen by people who want to buy it, is to market. However, if you think you need a marketing degree or to hire a multi-million dollar marketer, then think again. Happily, this is no longer true. Today anyone can market themselves successfully, even on budget.

Three Straightforward Methods You Can Start Using Today!

#1: Social Media

Now is the time to begin with social marketing. It's still on the ground floor, and we all know how good it is to start on the ground floor when it's just about ready to skyrocket. Latecomers to social media won't benefit anywhere near as much as you will as a 'nowcomer.'

Like the small towns of yesteryear, the internet is all about relationship building and word of mouth, or really word of internet. People trust people they keep hearing about; that's human nature. Once you start building a good reputation in social media networks, you can be considered an expert, a go to 'guy' and who doesn't want to go to a go to guy (or girl)?

*Squidoo.com. and other web 2.0 sites. You can create little mini-sites on them (about 1 page) that cater to your niche. Search engines adore these types of sites and give them a high ranking.

* Social networking sites like Facebook.com. While you should focus on finding or creating niche-specific groups on these general networking sites, be sure to always seek out niche-specific networking sites.

* Facebook.com and other social networking sites, while known for broad general networking, is also great for niche working too. Find others who love your niche and let them get to know you.

* Digg.com and other Social bookmarking sites are great ways to share favorite sites with others. If you want to launch a viral marketing campaign, then this is one of the best ways to do it..

You can pull in traffic from the search engines in two ways:

*Organic results- this is where you use keywords to write SEO (search engine optimized) copy.

* Use good keywords and other SEO (search engine optimization) tactics to be in the organic search results. * Use pay per click ads (Google AdWords sponsored results) to be on the very top of the very first page.

There's a time and place for both of these methods. Pay per click gets your ad out perfectly to your niche and gets traffic to your site almost instantly. However, organic search results can keep your name in front of people for months or years to come.

#3: Buying Ads

Yes, you should. Ads are proven ways to attract people to your site. There are online and offline ads, and both work.

*Text or banner ads on specialty niche sites

*Specialty niche ezines

*Specialty blogs

*Newspapers and specialty publications

Do I Really Need to Use All Three?

Of course you do. These three tactics are proven to work. One alone is good, but one alone will never get you the same results that three together can.

While powerful, these three main advertising methods are just the tip of the marketing iceberg. When you unleash these three alongside other equally powerful marketing methods, you'll unleash a nearly unstoppable flow of qualified leads.
