Time Management as a Marketer

Time Management as a Marketer

Information overload can lead to us moving around from one thing to
another and feel like we are getting nowhere, or at least achieving the
tool for the time we have spent. It is easy to fall into the trap of
trying to do e-mails, writing articles, talking on social media sites
and whatever else all at once. This jumping from one thing to another is
a time destroyer. If you want to help yourself as a marketer, learn to
turn off the e-mails, the social media and whatever else is distracting
new from your goal. Be reasonable with the plan and goals you set
because this way they will be achieved. Here are my tips –

Make a plan that works for you, be reasonable and realistic
Focus on one thing at a time and stick to it.
When writing, or doing any task, turn everything else off, including a
busy phone.
You can read your e-mails, Facebook etc. at the end of your day.
Set deadlines.
Don't stop until the task is done.
If you can't meet your deadline, make another short deadline.

The BBC News wrote about the topic here also, saying we are consuming
information like never before. It's true!Time management for Internet
marketers is a crucial element of marketing online that I have learnt
over the years. Someone who is still working their day job can have a
larger output of work if they focus.

Bottom line is putting the effort and be on track and you will succeed.
We all struggle with this most days so it is a learning curve of
discipline. This is one of the biggest assets or business tools your
business can have!
--
my motto is "Keep it simple" and "don't leave anything for tomorrow that
can be done today."

What Are QR codes?

What Are QR codes? They come to us from Japan where they are very common. QR is short for Quick Response (they can be read quickly by a cell phone). They are used to take a piece of information from a transitory media and put it in to your cell phone. You may soon see QR Codes in a magazine advert, on a billboard, a web page or even on someone's t-shirt. Once it is in your cell phone, it may give you details about that business (allowing users to search for nearby locations), or details about the person wearing the t-shirt, show you a URL which you can click to see a trailer for a movie, or it may give you a coupon which you can use in a local outlet. The reason why they are more useful than a standard barcode is that they can store (and digitally present) much more data, including url links, geo coordinates, and text. The other key feature of QR Codes is that instead of requiring a chunky hand-held scanner to scan them, many modern cell phones can sca...

What Is Internet Website Content?

What Is Internet Website Content? Content is made up of multiple elements, and is primarily the; * On-page visible text * Images and image Alt text * Anchor text in hyperlinks to internal or external pages * Hyperlink titles in links and menus * The descriptive Title and Description meta-data In the context of Google, a picture is NOT worth a thousand words! Moreover, words must be accessible, not embedded in images or Flash movies, JavaScript, slide shows etc. In 15 years as an SEO consultant, if there's one common denominator evident on websites, it's that there is a profound reluctance to expend time, money, and creative energy on unique text content. Brevity is the watchword - economical use of words is encouraged by design, branding and marketing advisers! * The branding gurus want you to use the textual equivalent of sound bites - bullet points and short sentences! * The website designers want the entire content of the page to be above ...

The REAL Value of Keywords

An important question in SEO is how much intrinsic value resides in a specific keyword and, whether SEO has the potential to take everybody on a fool's errand? When it comes to bigger companies, for instance, can a massive SEO investment in trying to achieve top ranking for almost-generic, ultra-competitive keywords be worth all the disappointment and soul-searching? Surely, in so many cases, there has to be a better way? At the other end of the scale are smaller companies with a limited marketing budget, particularly in the business-to-business sphere. There is often a fine balance to achieve when it comes to investing in SEO for what can only be low-traffic keywords in niche sectors, even where higher gross margins per sale indicate otherwise. Realizing this, many companies will skip the on-line sales dance, or resign themselves to having a website that is little more than an 'on-line brochure' presence or a support mechanism for Pay-Per-Click or social media activities. ...
