Many new entrepreneurs either do not have the time available to
them or do not want to spend the time to do everything that is necessary
in order for your home based business to become noticed and successful.
A lot of the day to day activities that need attention are sometimes
time consuming and can become tasks that are deemed as not income
producing. Even though these tasks may not produce immediate income,
they are essential for the fulfillment of the ultimate goal. The ever
expanding and evolving technology of the internet and its systems will
help to leverage your time and efforts.
Social media is proving to be one of the best free to low cost marketing tactics available. Social media sites allow you to set up your profile, add your websites, post videos and pictures and display general posts of what you are doing or what is on your mind. These sites are great for establishing your brand if you are trying to create one. But one person does not have the time required to stay on the sites to constantly update their status. Services such as Social Oomph and Ping allow you to create a list of updates that you can schedule to be released at certain times or certain days. These do take a little time to set up in the beginning, but with some work and proper setup, they will reduce the amount of time that you spend on social networking and increase your exposure.
Lead generation is the key to any home based business. Without leads you will not get your message to anyone but yourself. Advertising for leads can be very time and money consuming if done the wrong way. An advertising service such as Lead Impact and others allow you to set up specialized advertising campaigns for your website. This is paid advertising in the form of cost per click, cost per impression or cost per view. You can leverage this technology to your advantage by targeting specific keywords and websites which will generate huge amounts of traffic.
Video sites such as YouTube is quickly becoming the next greatest search engine. When you make a video of whatever you want about whatever you want, you can post this to their site. When you post these videos, you are allowed to assign tags that are relevant to your video along with your website URL. When someone searches a specific keyword or phrase, lists of videos relevant to that search are displayed and they choose from there. Videos remain on the internet until you remove them yourself. They are there forever to be viewed by all which leverages your exposure for what you are trying to convey.
Just as with videos, articles remain on the internet forever. You can leverage this by writing content rich articles that can be targeted to a specific audience. Again, you will assign keywords to that article that is relevant. When someone is searching on one of the major search engines such as Google, Bing or Yahoo, results will display according to their ranking by that search engine. If your article ranks high enough for the searched phrase or keyword, it will be displayed at the number one position.
In order to leverage technology, you must first understand what you are trying to leverage. All of the sites and services mentioned have videos or tutorials showing you step by step instructions on how to accomplish this. You may have to spend a little bit of time setting up each strategy that you choose, but with good updates, videos, articles and advertising, you will have discovered how to leverage the technology of today to your advantage and your home based business will become successful right before your eyes.
