Basics Of Online Success

If you are new to the online marketing world you must have many questions. Even if you are not new you may have plenty of questions as well. Regardless of your experience if you are not following certain basic guidelines then you are not going to very successful with your online marketing activities.

There are some basics that you must implement to succeed. They are tracking,
auto responders, fresh squeeze pages and splash pages and most important of all branding yourself and not someone else.

Tracking results is important as it tells you how a campaign is doing at a particular site. You can also test how 2 different pages on the same subject are doing at the same site. The opportunities are endless in regards to tracking. Hits Connect is a great place to join to get tracking results. You will find it here: http://www.trker.com/go/26919


Auto responders are used to grow your list of people who you can communicate to.
If you don’t have a list then who are you going to market to? You can set up email campaigns and newsletters and can choose how often you want to keep in touch with your contacts. Above all you must have this set up. AWeber is my choice for doing this. You can find it here: http://www.trker.com/go/26918


Creating fresh splash pages and squeeze pages are a must. Don’t get caught in the trap of showing your generic pages. Everyone is doing that and you need to stand out from the rest of the crowd. Make yours different and special. Banners can also be a great tool to use. Don’t forget to add your sign up box for prospects to sign up through aweber.Two great places to go to create fresh pages and banners are SplashPageMaker and InstantBannerCreator. You will find them here:

Branding yourself and building your list and business will propel your business. The more you get your face in front of people and market yourself, the more people will begin to trust you and you give them the feeling that you are knowledgeable and can be trusted. You are an online marketer and a professional so why wouldn’t you want to portray yourself that way. People can tell who is on the cutting edge of internet marketing and choose to follow those that are.

Mountain Avenue-A Circle of Giving

Please visit our new site that was just launched with incredible unique items from all around the world.

http://www.mountainavenue.com

The Beginning

Mountain Avenue began, as many great things do, with a group of close friends sitting around a fireplace sharing dreams and ideas. The fireplace was located in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in Northern Colorado. The friends were a diverse group. Two had founded their own Non-Profits and had helped many others along the way. The other two owned a family business that had been around for over 125 years. ll of the friends were searching for a better way to make a difference in the world. That night, this circle of friends decided to form a company that would give back
worldwide - one gift at a time. And so, Mountain Avenue and "The Circle Of Giving" were born.


The Mission

Mountain Avenue was created with a passion for helping others. Our mission is to bring about positive change with every aspect of our business practice, from design to delivery.

Circle Of Giving

Responsible Buying - Mountain Avenue purchases the majority of our products from fair trade certified organizations and individuals. This means those groups are committed to the following practices: Fair wages, good working conditions, respect for children and the environment, and support for their community. For more information please visit www.fairtradefederation.org.

Unique and Affordable Gifts - When buying a gift from Mountain Avenue you are choosing a product that has been purchased, in most cases, direct from the producer with as few middlemen as possible, allowing us to give you a unique, hand-crafted item at an affordable price.

We choose our product line carefully to offer you a broad selection of organic, non-toxic, recycled and re purposed items taking into account the processes by which they are produced in an effort to reduce our impact on the environment.

Choosing a Charity - Every time you purchase from Mountain Avenue a large portion of that purchase is donated to one of our Non-Profit Partners. We offer you the opportunity to choose which of our Partners that donation goes to. In having this responsibility you become part of the circle of giving on a personal level.

Donation to Non- Profit Partners - Mountain Avenue will donate up to 25% of profits to our Non-Profit Partners.
