Make the most of mobile marketing and Google

Advertising your business successfully using mobile marketing requires time, patience and Google know how. If you are not incorporating Google in your marketing, start right now. The king of online search has an arsenal of tools available to grow your business. Don't be in a hurry and take the Rome was not built in a day approach and give it time. Many business owners search online for the latest and greatest marketing system if the one they are using don't work right away. The term I use for this is SOS or shiny object syndrome. As you have seen all over the internet, mobile phone marketing is burning up the web with no end in sight. Marketers and business owners are scrambling to get the latest and greatest hyped up information about making money with mobile marketing. Being a mobile marketer I always look for new ways to inform my clients about new technology. It really ticks me off when I encounter a flashy website with all this hype about a new launch of the greatest mobile marketing business ever. Every so often I buy one just to check it out. I came across one just the other night that was just another network marketing company in disguise. They claimed to have the best pay plan, but in reality it was just another hype company trying to get your money. Over the years I have tried one shiny object after another and discovered something. The one with the simple plan was the one that worked the best. To many marketers go from one big launch to another only to be disappointed in the end. In fact I got so fed up with all the rehashed launches, That I did some research and made my own successful mobile marketing plan. One of the best places I stopped is the Google website and looked up mobile marketing. Google will give you most everything you need to make a successful campaign using smart phones and it is free. Google does not have everything for mobile marketing, but there are a couple of places that you can look to get some great ideas to combine smart phones and Google. After months of research and late nights the plan came together. In all reality putting together a marketing plan for mobile phones was simple once I had all the pieces together. No matter what plan you decide to use keep it simple. Join our marketing club here

Fiverr is your Marketing and Advertising Friend

If you own a business whether it be online or offline, then I have a little secret to tell you about marketing and advertising. About 3 years ago while surfing the web (that is the only surfing I am good at) this website caught my attention. I am always looking for new ways to market and came across some valuable information.It was a course on how to sell online marketing to local business owners. The course was in video format, which made it easy to follow along.

It started out telling about the usual steps you need to start a business. We have had a few small business over the years so most of this was old news. Over the years collecting marketing know how was part of my life every night when I finished my J.O.B. The dream of making money online always crossed my mind and kept me motivated.

We tried everything there was to try but nothing seemed to work. Most of the products were vague,  a lot of work and technically challenging. Some were free and some cost hundreds of dollars for the same useless information.

This latest course I bought started off lame but soon began to pick up steam. They explained how to get a website ranked and what steps you needed to take to get it there. One of the best pieces of information they gave was a site called fiverr.com.

You can have videos made,articles written,SEO, social media and dozens of other services done for you for $5.Can't write to save your butt, search fiverr for someone to do it for you. Don't have time for social networking, go to fiverr and hire someone for Five Bucks.

I am telling you this is the best thing for getting stuff done for your business for a five spot. Visit fiverr and see for yourself.
