I personally know a guy (30 years old) who worked the usual daily grind, 9-5 for a company, just like everyone else who has a job (Just Over Broke). He got hold of an idea to market a service on the internet, about 5 years ago... He tried a few different things, discovered a new way to market to his prospects that was extremely cost effective.... the internet. 

He left his job and started working from home, 12 hours per day, trying new techniques to market to his prospects, investing $40 per week on Google Ad-words. In time, he discovered what would work to attract his prospects to click on his site, then he designed a platform to give them access to the funds to buy his products and services.

As he continued to test and measure what was working, he went from spending money on Google ad-words, to investing money into Google Ad-words, earning a return on his investment. He continued to refine his marketing and invest more and more, to the point where he was actually earning $4000 per month.

He continued to test and measure, try new things, new marketing messages and offers and then was generating $10,000 per month... He now had cornered the Australian market and had the knowledge and confidence to take on the US market. $10,000 per month in sales turned into $1,000,000 per month, then with more testing and measuring and working with the people from Google,  that soon increased beyond his highest expectations... to $3,000,000 per month...  He was investing more, i.e. $1M to $2M per month, but was also generating more sales ($3,000,000)...

Constantly moving forward, he is attempting to stay in front of the competition, because as he has discovered, the highest form of flattery is imitation...He has ventured into the European markets to continue to expand and develop new frontiers.

When you look at your target market, do you know where they look for your product and services? If you don’t, how could you find out? If you discover that they search for you on the internet, do they use Google, yellow pages on line or some other search engine?

Does your target market, frequent "Face book or twitter" and if they do, what is the best way to market to them effectively/efficiently?

Investigating the internet, do you know how to advertise successfully and if you get your ad-words right, do you know how to convert a click on your website into an enquiry, phone call and ultimately a sale?

Would you like to grow your sales by 10%, 20 % or more...  do you know how to on the internet?

I have a colleague who knows how to take advantage of the internet social media and if you would like to learn how to make the most of this platform, he is conducting a free education seminar in September.
