Ready to begin or ramp up your current online business? With so many tools and one-click promises, it's super easy to get overwhelmed with choices. When that happens, you can either 1) drop money away on things you'll never use or that won't give you great results 2) waste time on activities that drain your energy more than they increase your profits or 3) keep you frozen with inaction for fear of doing the wrong thing or choosing the wrong tool.
Well, sit back and relax. We have an app for that (sort of)! Ever success story you read about today once stood exactly where you are, at the crossroads of overwhelm: what works and what doesn't.
There are four key web properties you need in your online business. James Wedmore, online marketing and video strategist talks about them in his recent YouTube video. And, I can vouch for the fact that he does, in fact, use these exact tools in his six-figure online business.
Your Blog: Your Main Web Property
There are lots of web platforms to use such as Scribd, Blogger, Weebly, Facebook, and YouTube. How do you know where to plant the flag for your online business? The answer is: Wherever you have the most control!
Just like in the real world, the more control you have in your business the better. There's always some risk when you build your online empire using on someone else's real estate. Sure, you can get a lease; however, when that lease ends or the contract is terminated, you have to leave. You could be out of business overnight unless you've established an active following that will follow you.
If your business is online, then this can happen too. So the best practice is to have an online "home" where you have some control over the future or your company. That means your own blog, with your own domain, that you have hosted on your account.
Your Blog is your content platform. Here are the online tools you should be using -
