Anatomy Of An Internet Marketing System
Please let me tell you about the Internet marketing systems I use and find helpful. This information may be of some benefit to you, especially if your goal is to monetize your site or earn an income from your online marketing.
My name is Titus Hoskins and I own and operate a very modest marketing website called www.bizwaremagic.com. I have an Art/Education background but in the last couple of years I have been studying online marketing systems and using them.
Yes, studying them, since I have an art background I like to examine structures and beneath the surface of things in order to gain a clearer picture. I like to see the whole picture – the big picture. But what’s beneath the surface excites me the most: the structure holding everything in place, how they are designed, the methods and tools used to make these marketing systems work.
Keep in mind that I still feel a bit funny referring to myself as an Internet marketer. Last week my marketing efforts made me around a thousand dollars. I don’t know if that qualifies me as an Internet marketer or not – probably not. Most of the people with whom I associate and have contact, make that in a day. The really smart ones make that in an hour.
A thousand dollars in one hour?
How is that possible? Well, the marketing experts who earn the big d’s – usually have complex automated marketing systems set up and operating on the Internet. These systems start with their own products but quickly expand and build with large opt-in lists or ezines, 1000’s of affiliates, large JV networks, multi-sites, viral marketing, membership forums, brandable ebooks, online marketing tools/resources and the list goes on…
No doubt you may have stumbled across some of these marketing systems on the Internet… one of the first I encountered was Internet Marketing Center run by the late Corey Rudl who died tragically in a car crash at the young age of 34. I made my first affiliate check through Corey’s system and it changed the way I looked at the Internet forever. And the check was only $5!
What helped me earn that $5 were not only my own efforts but more importantly the whole marketing system behind IMC. It took an ordinary webmaster and showed him how to market on the web. It showed me the way. More importantly, it also taught me that Internet marketing is a skill anyone can learn.
These marketing systems can be good places for the beginning marketer to learn those skills. There are many marketing systems quietly working the Internet. Some of the best (in my opinion) are Ken Evoy’s whole Site Sell system, Marlon Sanders Higher Response Marketing, John Reese’s Traffic Secrets, Bryan Winter’s PushButton Publishing, Jeff Mulligan’s CBmalls, and Nitro Marketing.
These Internet marketing systems are all different, yet they all have common elements or features that make them very effective and powerful marketing systems. A close examination of the different components or parts might give you a better understanding of what makes these Internet marketing systems work.
