I believe there is only one way to get your online business to grow. I don’t think it’s about spending thousands of dollars on advertising. I don’t think the secret is learning the latest twitter technique. And I definitely don’t think doing what everyone else does is the right way to go.
I think the only way you are going to get your online business to grow, is by defining where your business currently is and using that definition as a starting point. I find the entrepreneurs who are struggling, often get caught up in slick marketing techniques. Even though you might be following proven strategies, they won’t work for you if you are implementing them at the wrong time. What do I mean by the wrong time? Social Networking doesn’t work, if you are sending people to a website that’s under construction. Blogging tips won’t help you, if you don’t write in your blog. And you might as well avoid twitter all together, if you are having trouble with the basics, like actually making a sale.
I love to stay in the internet marketing loop, but I always put my blinders on and strictly focus on where my business currently is, so that I can figure out how to make it grow. Now here is the big question for you, where is your business? Review and select one of the following starting points.
I am a Beginner
I have some ideas, but I don’t know how to start or where to begin. I want to start my own business and make money online, but I haven’t established a business yet. I want to learn more about turning my ideas into a business and/or online businesses that I can start.

I am Intermediate
I have already created a business. I have started to promote my business and get customers. I am trying to utilize a few of the marketing solutions that I’ve seen online, but I haven’t done everything and I am not seeing the results that I want. I really want to increase my traffic and sales online, but I don’t know where to start.
