There is a lot of hope lately in the online world. There are many firms out there that demand that you buy your way to the top. Planning your online spending budget can get a little tricky.
Overall these techniques fall a little flat and leave you wondering what your next move should be. Instead of dumping more money into PPC its better to get creative.
WHATS NEW IN ONLINE TRAFFIC GENERATION?
The good news is there are ways to generate a substantial amount of online traffic for pennies. Most cases you won't have to pay a fortune every month. However you will need to find someone who has some online know how......
The recent splurge of online social groups have skyrocketed in recent months. There are huge pockets of potential customers on groups like LinkedIn.com and Myspace.com. Fortunately for the business class there are more social groups geared toward entrepreneurs and small business owners.
There are many video networks out there too that you should be aware of. In the old days of internet marketing, (just 18 months ago in fact) you had to buy server space and pay for bandwidth usage. These days things are a little easier to deal with.
Online Videos Are Accessible Through.....
* Ipods
* Iphones
* Blogs
* RSS feeds
* One page sites
* Web Sites
*** Search engines pay particularly close attention to these online methods. They also have a pecking order as to what each one should carry as far as content. Its very easy to get the right parts but have none of the right "guts" inserted so they can get you top traffic and rankings.
** The magic formula for this can work great. But you have to have everything in its proper place.

Powerful Profit Pills - and The Age of Being Media FIT
Stating your case for what you do as a business has never been more important. In fact, leaving your pre-recorded sales pitch has never been more easier. But only if you know where to put it.
There are several presentation software packages that will allow you to can your message. From here you can post them on your blogs or in your web sites for all to see. This is where marketing takes on an incredible new life.
Leaving a plethora of marketing materials for a full review and in easy access for your customers is a good idea. This should be your main goal.
THE IPHONE, IPOD AND ANTHONY ROBBINS
I recently came across an old recording on ITUNES on, "Awaken the Giant Within" by Tony Robbins. The message was that the mind will do anything to avoid pain. It is always trying to wriggle its way out of confrontations and uncomfortable situations. You can actually use this to make money with if you are smart enough to create the connection.
I believe in confrontation with my marketing messages. I would rather have a solid YES or a NO instead of hiding behind a Yellow Page Ad and praying for a phone call. The beauty of the technology in recent months is that the IPOD movement creates that instant accessibility. You can take your marketing video, podcast and presentation and shoot it across the internet. This can happen a lot quicker than you can imagine.
By putting all your cards on the table you can show the world what you can do. It is up for the consumer to figure out how they can use your services.
This is how FLASH should be used. You can get this done by using a program called Camtasia. You have the ability to record an entire PowerPoint presentation and save it as a SWF file and post it on your site.
Think of what this can do for your Michigan based business. By adding smart SEO to distribute your marketing messages and using RSS technology you can literally move mountains.
From there the rest is magic......

RSS FEEDS AND MEDIA DISTRIBUTION
Now you can take that marketing message and deliver it throughout the Internet. By using a simple RSS feed and have subscription chicklets burned on your blogs you can have people subscribe to your marketing messages. This is truly powerful.
This type of distribution is really in its infacy. Its best to get started with it now and get your name out there. Your name can really grow as an industry leader if you get your messages out there starting today. Its amazing how many times I meet people on the street or when I am talking to vendors. They actually know who I am.
....its time to get confrontational.

IPHONE MARKETING - IS HERE !!
Click here to get your own player.
"NOW THAT THE LONG LINES ARE OVER - GET MARKETING !!!"
The recent quips from some of Michigans top CEO's seemed a bit befuddled and confused. They shake their heads in disbelief at the mere mention of using the IPHONE to market their products and services. The recent issue of Detroit Crains was about what I expected from Michigan's business community.
Meanwhile, the entire notion of marketing with mobile devices have taken a new road. I saw this explosion taking off in its infancy in New York City. I eagerly awaited its arrival in Michigan. If you have a daredevil attitude this could be the ticket for you. You may make an enemy here or there in the broadcasting circles but you must make a decision. You can either give your money away freely to an agency or a broadcast facility.....
Or you can take the bull by the horns and take control of your marketing.
This recent podcast by Ted Cantu, (SEO Search Quest) puts the record straight on what you can look forward to.
