Your Questions About Internet Marketing Association

Sandy asks…
I need to decide on an Internet marketing association to join. I work for a B-B. Any suggestions.?
I am a member of the American marketing Association, and although they have an Internet marketing division, they do not offer a lot in this concentrated area….Thanks

Jere answers:
I don’t know if this is the area you’re asking about but it does offer worldwide marketing of websites which may be of use to you in the future for say your individual members websites.
It’s rarely an instant return on the Internet. You need your website coming up relevant to what people “search for” on the Internet. It takes time to get placement in the right places within the Internet and if you’re listed in the right category of searches you stand a better chance of returns. The following is one of the better ways.
For a small charge you can have a “Permanent” website advertisement placed in an index such as this in a choice of around 750 categories to target your business trade.
This will raise your website profile and increase its chances of extra sales because this site is indexed by the search engines placing your site within public searches.
The advantage of a site like this is that you don’t have to update your listing again.

Place a dot in the above!

Maria asks…
How do you feel about “marketing”?
How do you understand the term?
Does it bring negative or positive associations?
What do you think it involves?
I am asking not about what the books or the internet says but YOUR opinion and feeling on the subject without any resarch. Just brainstorm some answers 🙂

Jere answers:
Many think it is negative because it makes them think of TV commercials and pushy salesman.
I love marketing because I understand what it is. Marketing is the way you live.
If you want a girlfriend/boyfriend, you find ways to advertise that you are available.
If you want your parents/partner to buy something for you, you have to sell them on the idea.
I know that you’re only brainstorming opinions, but if you are interested in marketing, I could give you the names of some of the best material that you could study.

Paul asks…
How do I advertise my business with yahoo?
I provide a permission based broadcast email marketing program. It is web based so it can be used from any computer with internet access. We don’t do spam. It’s great for building prospects and customers for on-line or “brick and mortar” retailers, restaurants, association managers, and schools.

Jere answers:
To advertise your business with yahoo, just put a link here to your web site. The search engines would pick up the link and crawl your web site

Market Reserach consists of not just jumping directly once the research objectives are ascertained. You will have to ascertain what sort of qustions you ask, like sematic differentials, adjective scoring scales etc;.
