How abrasive is your cyber-scar?

Just recently, I sat back in my office chair to give my eyes a rest from the monitor, and a long ago experience entered in amongst my other thoughts.

The thought takes me back to a time when, I too, was still learning the Internet Marketing ropes! A time where email, usenet, and message boards transferred advertising data like a super-highway on steroids.

I remember taking interest in an offer that sounds too good to be true. They made statements that sounded just reasonable enough (if only barely) to keep me hanging on. They made three or four statements that I’d know to be true so that when they spring the big lie on me what they were selling, I’d be more likely to believe that, too.

They were experts at verbal camouflage! They put Insistence on an immediate decision! High-pressure sales tactics take a variety of forms but the common denominator is usually a stubborn reluctance to accept “no” as an answer.

A suggestion that you should make a purchase or investment on the basis of “trust.” Trust is a laudable trait, but it shouldn’t be dispensed indiscriminately.

No matter what you’re told to the contrary, the reality is that at least 99 percent of everything that’s a good deal today will still be a good deal a week from now! And the other one percent isn’t generally worth the risk you’d be taking to find out.

Online Reselling - Work Your Customer

If you’ve got products or services that are consumable, repeatable, and not just a one-time shot, you should set up regular contact strategies with your customer database on a weekly or monthly basis.

Let’s say you have a service that your customers should replace every month or they should take advantage of it every month. You can send out a newsletter where you tell them how important they are to you, and you can set them up as a preferred customer or preferred client.

Let them know what’s going on in the industry. Give them some practical tips that can make their lives easier. Make them a special offer, a special price, a special web page or a combination that’s not available to brand new customers.

You can be the very first one to approach them about new products or services that you have and reserve it for them first if they’ll visit your site.

If you continually work your customer by communicating with them, you can stimulate more orders!

How many can you stimulate?

Every situation is different. You have to test it by regularly working your customer base. You can pull 20%-300% additional business.

This has been said over, and over again, but people are silently begging to be acknowledged, informed, given advance opportunities, and led to action.

It doesn’t matter what business you’re in. This concept works well everywhere.

Who’s Hiding Behind That Domain?

I’ve heard rumblings that the Internet’s governing body, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ICANN, will meet in Los Angeles next month to discuss eliminating the Whois service.

The issue, whether proxy services are unregulated due to information that’s readily available to the public, while criminals are keeping their secret hidden.

The U.S. Federal Trade Commission say they use the data from Whois to seek out Internet pirates, scam artists, and Phishing experts. Why take it away?

No matter what questions you ask or how many you ask, skilled swindlers have ready answers. That’s why sales calls or email from persons or organizations that are unknown to you should always be checked out before you actually buy or invest. Legitimate callers have nothing to hide. Phone and email swindlers are likely to know more about you than you know about them.

Use Whois while it’s still available if you plan on looking up someone you’re going to do business with!
