subject: Why You Must Work Harder Than A Brick and Mortar Business Owner by:Jason Pearson [print this page] Only twenty to thirty years ago internet marketing was a foreign phrase to most people. Advertising was done through magazines, newspapers, television and radio. Today, however, technology has thrown business marketing way ahead of it's old fashioned past. Companies set up websites, advertise all over the internet and have a web address, making it easier than ever for customers from all over to buy their merchandise. With that mentality you would think business owners have it better than ever, and in some ways you would be right. Who wouldn't want to sell car part from New York to someone in Mexico without any problems?
In other ways Internet marketers have to work twice as hard to keep their business running smoothly than Mr. Smith in the little grocery store down the street. There is no actual interaction between business and customer through internet marketing, this makes it impersonal and cold, many people do not like this kind of business. Marketers must work to build relationships with clients, making them feel at home, as if they have a friend in your business. They must go the extra step in making answers available for customers with questions, and easy to contact customer service. People do not like to shop where they feel detached and faceless.
With the internet growing all of the time information is readily available to anyone willing to log on. For many online shoppers it is hard to distinguish scams from honest businesses. Online marketers need to go the extra mile to convince potential shoppers that they are honest merchants, running a legitimist business. By providing all of the information a client may need or desire to spend their hard earned money at your store, you will be providing a level of security a customer needs to spend money online.
Though online marketers must work harder than brick and mortar store owners, it is very possible to be a successful online business owner. A solid foundation of loyal customers will help build your business into a booming achievement.
