Business Articles | September 7, 2010

There are many factors to consider, but these three reasons are probably why YOU are in the 97% of internet marketers failing to produce sustainable income. Find out why!

Hello, my name is James. I have been scouring the jungle that is the world wide web for the past 10+ years. I have been involved in internet marketing for the past 4 years or so and let me tell you I've made some mistakes along the way. Take it from me that you don't have to suffer the same fate! Let me show you from years of experience the 3 main reasons why 97 percent of people trying to make a profit on the internet fail.

Number 1: Traffic!

Traffic is the life blood of any business. If you do not have people coming to you, you will not have a chance to show them what you have to offer and make a potential sale. There for it is imperative that you generate traffic to your web site or offer. There are a few ways to do this but I will focus on this in another article.

Number 2: People don't buy from just anyone, they buy from Experts.

This is a powerful point. If you were looking to buy a tennis racket, would you choose one that came highly recommended or just pick up the first you saw? Obviously, you would look for the one your tennis teacher told you about because he or she knows from experience what works for them. You must become the expert of the product you are recommending. People will be more likely to buy from you if you are reputable and know what you are talking about, or at least give the impression you do. How do you become the expert? Again, we'll leave that for another article.

Number 3: Don't go for the sale every time!

Why would I buy from you if you immediately try to sell me your product? We did not even get a chance to establish a relationship. I think I can count on one hand how many people I personally know who like pushy salesmen. This goes back to point number 2. If you establish a relationship and are knowledgeable or at least appear so in a particular product I'm looking to buy, I will more than likely buy from you. But going for the sale right off the bat is a great way to not make that sale.
