Practical Internet Marketing Strategies

Happy Valentines Day! I really do love you... sort of. It depends on whether I know you or not. It depends on whether or not you are ready to buy from me or ready to give something that benefits me. It depends on how you are connected to me. It depends on what you look like, sound like, your socioeconomic status, and what you eat for breakfast. Until you give to me or have something to offer, I have nothing for you.

But the Web is the great equalizer. I don't have to know you. I don't have to know who your friends are or what you have to offer me. I can give freely and give often through my website. I can provide value without passing judgement. Of course, I have to put food on the table for my family so I truly do want you to buy from me but that doesn't mean we can't have a conversation or that I can't talk with you until you are ready to give yourself.

The challenge is to carry on a conversation and offer you valuable information and ideas without giving up all of my time. I can do that through my website. Of coure, I'll need a tool that allows me to carry on that conversation and I will have to dedicate some time to it. But with the right tool and the right strategy I can easily accomplish it. And I want to.

So then the phrase "I love you... sort of" turns into "I love you - whoever you may be."
