Internet marketing is a skill that every business person and entrepreneur should have. It is a skill that is required in today’s new economy. You can’t get by with old school sales any more when 80% of the population go to the internet for answers to questions and when they are looking to buy, they look first for information online.

If you don’t have a presence on the internet for your business, you are missing selling to 80% of the population. Most buying is done as people are emotionally charged and want to get thins instantly. That is why having products available by internet is much more valuable than owning a store front.

If I wanted to buy a stereo, I would search the internet to see which one has the best ratings. I would then search the best price for the model I chose. Sometimes it is in the store, like Best Buy, sometimes it is on eBay, or maybe even Craigslist. But most of the time the best deals are online. So, I take out my credit card and make the purchase.

The guarantees on products now make buying from the internet a safer process. The attitude of skepticism has gone and delivery of a quality working product is the norm.

So what kind of things will you learn with an internet marketing education? You will learn different kinds of marketing such as how to write articles about your product and distribute them to hundreds of ezines at a time. You will learn video marketing and social media marketing which is the very place your customers are hanging out and looking for opportunities to buy. You will learn how to write press releases for your business as well as Pay Per Click and Banner advertising. These are just a few of the ways you can get your service, product or idea in front of millions of people for little to no money at all.

Conventional advertising still works, but costs a lot more to implement. A bit of both is ideal for your business. But, if you are building your business on a budget, there is no better place to spend your money than on an education on internet marketing and how to get your message out to the masses.

Once you learn this skillset. You will be able to apply it to any business or product you choose. You will be able to sell any product to anyone, anywhere and at anytime. There is no better way to spend your money than on your own marketing education.

Every Faith principle, every spiritual law that God set forth in His Word was for your benefit. It was designed to put you over in life.

You can have what you say if you learn to release faith from the heart in your words. This is spiritual law and once you receive this, it will change your life.

Jesus said, “…as thou has believed, so be it done unto thee” (Matthew 8:13). He didn’t say it would only work if you believed right. Whether you believe right or wrong, it is still the law. “…God is not mocked, whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap” (Galatians 6:7).

This is based on the same basic principle as seed-time and harvest. The words you speak are seeds that produce after their kind. Just as sure as they are planted, you can be equally sure a harvest will follow.

Faith talks. When faith talks, it talks faith, not fear and unbelief.

Words are containers and carry faith or fear and produce after their kind.

What would happen if Jesus walked down the aisles of your church and laid His hands on you and said, “It will come to pass that after I lay my hands on you, everything you say will happen just as you say it?”

Half the congregation would probably jump up and say, “That just tickles me to death!”

The enemy has so programmed the minds of people until instead of resisting him, they have just sort of buddied up with him and begun to speak his language.

This is the main reason the poor get poorer and the rich get richer. The poor speak their problems and their fear and doubt in achieving more stops them from ever achieving anything. There is always an excuse and a reason why they can not do what it takes to break through. Whether it is lack of money, lack of transportation, lack of skills, lack of education, lack of opportunity, they speak of that lack and that is what they believe in their heart and it is what they receive by fact of spiritual law.

The rich on the other hand have an attitude of abundance and prosperity and believe that anything can be done, and they have the resources to do it and they take the action with the belief in their heart that what they were sowing will reap rewards.

Is it not time we started changing the words that we speak? If we know that our words  produce after their kind, there should be no corrupt speech to come out of our mouths, only that which is good to edifying.

“We seem to gain wisdom more readily through our failures than through our successes. We always think of failure as the antithesis of success, but it isn’t. Success often lies just the other side of failure.”

Leo F. Buscaglia quotes

Too many of us give up once we hit a road block and things don’t go the way we had hoped.  Attitude is everything. If you quit every time you stumble, you will never accomplish anything great. You will be working a JOB for someone else your whole life.

As a Japanese proverb said, “If you fall seven times, get up eight.”

“Be careful how you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts.”

God revealed this truth thousands of years before psychologists did. Behind everything you do is a thought, so in order to change your life, you must first change your autopilot.

Every behavior is motivated by a belief and every action is prompted by attitude.

Imagine traveling on a boat with an automatic pilot set to east. If you decide to reverse and head west, there are two ways you can do that. The first, is grab the steering wheel and forcibly change the direction. The problem with this is that you will eventually get tired and give up, only for the boat to head east again.

This is what happens when you try to change your life with willpower. You say, “I’ll eat less…exercise more…quit procrastinating and get organized…put more time into my business.” This willpower can produce short-term results, but there is a constant resistance because you haven’t dealt with the root cause.

There is a better and easier way…Change your autopilot by changing the way you think. Change always starts in your mind first. The way you think determines the way you feel, the way you feel determines the way you act.

The first way to do this is to stop thinking immature thoughts, which are self-centered and self-seeking. Babies by nature are selfish. They think only of themselves and their own needs. They are incapable of giving; they can only receive. Unfortunately, many people in business never get beyond this stage of thinking and are greedy and self-serving. They do not give, they only want to receive.

You must start thinking more maturely, which focuses on others and their needs. The apostle Paul says, “When I was a child, I thought like a child, I talked like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish things behind me.”

Are you still running your business like a child? Are you putting others first or do you still have immature selfish thoughts?

If you learn to serve others and give more of yourself, more will be given unto you. It is time to grow up, change the way you think and do business and change your autopilot on a course to success.

Accepting Your Assignment

It was God himself who has made us what we are and given us new lives through Jesus Christ; and long ages ago he planned that we should spend this life in helping others. Ephesians 2:10

You were put on this earth to make a contribution, not just to consume resources. God designed you to make a difference with your life.

While many books offer advice on how to ‘get‘ the most out of life, that is not what you were made for. You were created to ‘add‘ to life on earth, not just take from it.

This is one of God’s purposes for your life and is called a ministry or service.

Whenever you serve others in any way, you are actually serving God and fulfilling one of your purposes. The Bible says “It is he who saved us and chose us for his holy work, not because we deserve it, but because that was his plan.”  You are not saved by service, but you are saved for service.  This gives your life great significance and value.

How much of your time are you being useful in the service of God?

Jesus said, “Your attitude must be like my own, for I, the Messiah, did not come to be served, but to serve and to give my life.”

It is not enough to keep learning more and more. We must act on what we know and practice what we claim to believe. We must share the knowledge with others, for this is our purpose. The old comparison between the Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea is true. Galilee is a lake of great life, for it takes in water but also gives it out. In contrast, nothing lives in the Dead Sea because with no outflow, the lake has stagnated.

So what does this all mean for you and your business practices? The common practice in MLM and Network marketing is to sell yourself and people like Mike Dillard and Jim Rohn preach giving as much as you can and people will follow you. Well, they are completely correct and have made fortunes for themselves by repeating a command that was given by Jesus 2000 years ago. Serve other people and you will be blessed abundantly.

If you are not helping other people with their business and trying to do whatever it takes to make their business grow, you should start now, for you will get more people to follow you and be blessed with a life of prosperity.

Get out there and make a difference.
