Internet Marketing Plan Add Ons

By Luis Galarza.

It's Never Too Late To Make Some Changes And Include This Add-Ons To Your Internet Marketing Plan!

-- Update October 6, 2012 --

I going to be talking a lot about having a Internet marketing plan for your business, simple because is one of the most important parts of a small business plan, plus having one will help you follow a path for each strategy you want to use to promote your products or brand online. So, do yourself a favor and write a quick plan that outlines the tactics or methods and what you want to achieve with each of them, do this before you start any online advertising campaign, business or venture, and if you already started without one, is never too late to start writing one.

I'm writing this today because I was checking some of my consulting clients marketing plans and they have a good layout of some of the strategies they are going to put on practice, but their plans were missing some strategies that need to be part of any Internet marketing plan no matter what niche or industry are you in.

You need to remember 2 things. First, there are a few online marketing methods that never went out of style and effectiveness, off course these tactics are more advanced or more mature now, but they still the same basic principals, which are keep working like any other. So, don't believe any one who tell you that some type of Internet marketing method is now dead before doing your own research. The second thing is that cyberspace commercialization and socialization is always in evolution, making some all channels less effective and obsolete, because new more improve channels and tactics were created. Now, no all new web tactics and tools are good... so, how you know which one are good or better? Well, my friends, do what I do... follow what's popular between consumers and entrepreneurs.

Yes, my friends is that simple, just follow the consumers and hang out where they do. A quick example that shows you that this tactic work is YouTube. this site from the Google family open the opportunity for anyone with a video camera to express themselves and become famous and people just loved it, and now you see millions of web users uploading videos on YouTube, them entrepreneurs saw that this is the new hot channel that can be monetize by uploading there videos, then other business people press the copycat bottom by launching there own YouTube look alike video sharing site... then Google make a huge jump on the market by purchasing YouTube, which in that time was the number one social video sharing on the web.

So, you see it works! Let web users set the path for your next tactic or venture, they know better.
