Ah, the personal side of internet marketing. Some people forget all about this, but it’s the ones who remember it – and make the most of it – who tend to experience the most success, the biggest pay checks and the biggest reputations as well.
What do I mean by giving a bit of yourself?
Well basically what I’m saying is that you should take a more personal stance towards your communications with your customers. People like to know that they’re dealing with a proper person online, and not a faceless company. If they get to know you – albeit over an internet connection – they will be far more likely to spend money with you. It’s also good to relate your experiences in whatever niche you are interested in. So if you have a website and a blog related to affiliate marketing, you might decide to reveal your experiences regarding the success (or lack of) that you’ve had with certain companies.
This can work really well as you can turn it into your advantage. If you’ve had a bad start with a scheme and then turned things around to end up making a lot of money with it, why not tell people about it? You could even write a revealing e-book which will ensure they don’t make the same mistakes as you, instead seeing almost instant success… In short making sure your customers get to know a little bit about you is just as important as making sure you know a lot about them. You’ll want to be professional and project the right image in that sense – no one wants to come across like a bumbling idiot who doesn’t know what they’re doing – but you should make every effort to connect with your customers and prospects as often as you can, so they will come to trust you.
