Some Tips For Getting Your eBusiness Into Better Company

By: Jane Dawson

Does it sometimes feel as though you are the one billionth and one person trying to sell in your space and no matter how many how-to articles you read, there is just no way to differentiate yourself sufficiently to get ahead of the crowd? Part of the reason is that when someone gets a new idea, it spreads through the Internet like wildfire and suddenly everyone has a new idea.

But wait new ideas spread to those who are paying attention. So, tip number one is very simple: pay attention! Look for those new ideas all the time. Figure out which ones make sense to you and give them a try.

Now, if you remember physics class way back in the day, you will remember that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. It is sometimes a bit that way for tips too. Having read tip number one, you need to keep in mind tip number two: do not go running after every new idea that comes off the Internet tornado. What!!! Really, it is as simple as, evaluate everything you read.

Try those tips that make good sense and fit into your strategy but do not change at every whim. You need to allow a strategy to be in place long enough to know if it works or not. Plus, you have limited personal or business energy. Use it to best advantage. The blended tip is to stay alert for new and interesting marketing ideas because that alone will put you ahead of a lot of other vendors but utilise them wisely, with an eye towards what you can measure and how much time you have for experimentation.

Tip Number Three has to do with palling around with higher ranking types. Does your industry have well-known industry watchers? Are there folks who comment on trends or best buys? Do their columns or blogs rank well on keywords that you have in common? If so, you want to be associated with those folks. One way to get connected is to write some content of your own that refers to their content (not copies their content, of course, just refers to their content as authoritative.)

For example, if Joe J. is an electronics watcher and he is talking about the newest technology for headphone sound amplification, write something about new products coming your way that are employing that technology and mention Joes point of view on whether or not this is the next big breakthrough or just a stopping post in the improvement process.

Why? Joe writes these columns or blogs for a reason. He wants attention for his site. If you legitimately provide that attention by introducing him as an authority, he may well notice you and your site, even if your site is one of hundreds selling the same electronics. He may even comment on your site or your article, especially if you have something interesting to say, which you probably do since you sell electronics equipment and you are probably watching these trends as well.

And how does he know about you? If he is smart, and he probably is, he has got a Google Alert out on his name so he can see every time it gets used. You get introduced to him by Google where he finds you building his credibility. Nice touch!
