You can find thousands of people that can tell you how to be an internet marketer. But it isn’t in the telling that makes you a success. Internet marketing is not just about telling people that you have something to sell that they want. Remember that NOBODY makes money unless somebody sells something. If you can’t close the sale, you just wasted all of your time and energy. The key is in being able to think like an internet marketer. You have to be able to see your opportunities where others see nothing.
Take a good look around you. Do you see opportunities to make money, or just a barren landscape of “what now?” When you watch television, do you see the commercials from the marketer’s point of view or from the consumer’s point of view? In order to be a successful internet marketer, you have to change your way of thinking. Instead the old saying of seeing a glass half full or half empty, you have to see the glass as full all of the time. If you are a serious internet marketer, you can see ways to make money from almost anything.
Thinking like an internet marketer is essential in building your business. Although it doesn’t guarantee your success, it will take you a long way toward getting there. You have to ask yourself if you are able to think like an internet marketer, and if your answer is “not yet” then it is time to get educated. There is a lot of available reading to help you get into to right frame of mind. For example, you can get a lot of information from Zig Ziglar’s “Secrets of Closing the Sale” or Mark Joyner’s “The Irresistible Offer.” Both of these and many others are widely available at your local library.
