Ever had the guts to win in this competitive world? Ever had the courage to compete with and possibly beat even the wisest and most strategic business people in the world?
Certainly, this world has grown fast and changes have been fast as well. From the traditional ways of doing things, people have become more advanced and when you want to keep up with the Jones’ you had better know what to do. Businesses that are slow get left behind. Businesses who are eager to reach the turret of success continue to search for higher degrees of learning so as not to lose in the game.
Who would not want to succeed in business anyway? Everybody wants to generate income; everybody wants to be known in his or her own field. But how is it possible to succeed, especially in the business world?
One Word – Strategy. That single word alone already means everything. It actually defines everything about success.
Today, people are hooked on the internet. Almost everybody knows how to “surf the web”. In fact, most businesses have already seen its potential that is why online marketing has also become a phenomenon.
You may be skeptical about this strategy because you still think that yellow page advertising is better but let us delve into the ten major reasons why online marketing is more effective than yellow page advertising.
Reason #1: You Save More Money
The life of any business is money. Without this, it will not run. That is why savvy businessmen are very skeptical when it comes to their expenses.
With yellow page advertising, you pay a huge amount. In fact, for every inch of space in the yellow pages, there is a corresponding price. Imagine how much it would cost you if you had a full page ad? In New York, Manhattan, each inch of space costs $2,500 while a whole page ad costs $92,000!
With online marketing, you just have to pay for your monthly website, your website design and marketing, which could be less than $100/month to keep your business’ online advertising up and going.
Reason #2: You Have More Space For Content
Space does count when it comes to advertising. If you want your customers to know more about your business, limited space won’t work. In online marketing, you have all the space you need to advertise and promote what you have. In yellow page advertising, you only have a very limited amount of space to work with.
Reason #3: More People Hear About You
Have you ever noticed that when you are surfing the internet, you always come across a lot of things and then you suddenly became interested in them? That’s what online marketing can do for your business. If you know how to optimize your site, then more people will know about you. Can you do this with yellow page advertising?
Reason #4: Online Marketing Is Measurable
Why is this important? With tracking, you always know what are the most commonly keywords used by your visitors and can you monitor everything. When you develop a list of your best keywords, you can generate more traffic to your site and you’ll definitely gain more buyers.
With your yellow page advertising, you’ll have no ideal what prompted a prospect to take action.
Reason #5: You Can Use Videos With Online Marketing
Advertising on television is very expensive right? With online marketing, you get to promote your products or services at a very affordable price and even show your business’ benefits and features through online video. This is more visible and reliable than yellow page advertising which is plain words and photos, right?
Reason #6: You Establish A Relationship With Your Customers
How can you establish a relationship through a yellow page advertisement? With online marketing, you have the chance to develop relationships by sending email tips or online newsletters to visitors who keep coming back to your site. You can also get better business ideas by allowing them to leave comments.
Reason #7: You Can Easily Build Trust And Credibility With Your Visitors
When using online marketing, you have the chance to express your desire to help your customers and not just benefit from them. When you are able to build rapport with them by simply giving them simple ideas for free, you will quickly earn their trust.
Reason #8: You Are The Only Choice
With yellow page advertising, there are a lot of advertisements under each category. If you are the reader and you have 500 choices to choose from, would you still continue? Instead, you’ll probably just hop on your internet and type the keyword of what you want and you’ll have it! That’s online marketing! If you know how to do it right, you will be the only choice of your buyers.
Reason #9: You Can Promote Your Business All Over The World
Can yellow page advertising reach the whole world? Certainly not. With online marketing, the World Wide Web will do the work for you. Your products and services will be known throughout the nations with just a click.
Reason #10: Online Marketing Is Eco-Friendly
Imagine how many trees are being cut down just to come up with yellow pages? Imagine how much waste is thrown out when people dump their yellow pages? With online marketing, you are at peace with the nature. You gain without hurting the ecosystem.
Amazing isn’t it? These ten are just some of the million reasons why you should choose online marketing over the yellow pages. You save money, you save effort, you save the environment, but more importantly you gain more wealth!

Usually, Incentive is a deffer ed payment of productive calls made by Marketing Executives, depending on quantum of Business booked by an Executive from the margin. You may give any thing between 10 to 15 % of your margin as an incentive to each Executive for additional Business i.e., beyond Target. Target too has to be fixed scientifically.
Rather than a stunt, maybe go for effective.
Use direct mail.
You have an advantage here in that people respond to "food offers" more than any other kind of direct mail.
Most managers mistakingly believe that they lose money whenever they give discounts…..bzzzzt! wrong.
By getting people to respond to your insane direct mail offer, you will increase your revenue by creating sales from those customers in a time frame that would not have happened naturally.
In other words, you are getting that guy who, on his own accord comes in say, once a month, or you might see him every two months for like three days that week, to come through your doors twice a month. You are increasing the frequency of purchases.
If you send out a worthwhile offer, they will respond….over and over…and over.
If you have a lame offer….ya..they won't budge.
ask your customers what it would take…get some feedback….then create a nice professional looking piece or two….send them out….get feedback….tweek the thing, till it produces results consistently.
This is how smart companies use direct mail. ….you know…the ones who use it year after year….thwy do it because they've learned how to make it work for them.
You have to be a good speaker, salesperson, and work hard.
Just learn japanese, german or chinese and you will be fine.
There are many good network marketing companies with great compensation plans. All will claim to be the best, yet the best one is the one that suits your interests. One may good for you and not good for another or vise versa. The key to success is enjoying what you do and building upon that. I am involved in the network marketing industry. I enjoy it. I enjoy being a solution to problems. That is where I choose to position myself. I also position my self in the health and wellness aspect. There are a lot of people who are looking for ways to improve their health. There are many who do not have good things to say about the network marketing industry. This is because of the statistics of failure and those who are out there hassling friends and family to join there bizz opp. If you don't find interest in what you do, how can you succeed? You also need to learn about your target market. I am not talking about warm market. Target marketing is positioning yourself in front of those looking for what you have to offer. I have been involved with programs that help you to know more about being a successful marketer. I suggest that you educate yourself as much as possible before going in blind. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have. I hope that this helps.
