Marketers Tools

New people are coming online every day, and many are looking for ways of supplementing their income and starting an online business. With that in mind I will be posting some tips for the beginner. Newbies, as they are so affectionately referred to…

Newbies are at a disadvantage, and they are also easy prey for the “ethically challenged” marketer. So the VERY FIRST TIP is: DO YOUR RESEARCH!

Newbie Basics

We will begin this marketing course with the basics. This will be very basic for most, but will get the newbie off to a good start. For those with experience, just bear with us through this initial start and there will be some meat later in this course that will benefit almost any marketer in some way.

Copy and Paste Training

This in itself will save you many keystrokes and typos. I can’t count the times I have seen an ad with typos in the url, which in effect makes it totally useless. My suggestion is to make a text file in notepad, wordpad, etc with all the URLs, email addresses, key words, one line promo text, ads, etc that you will be promoting. Then when you submit an ad or link, copy from your text file and paste where needed.

When you are able, click your link to test, just to be sure.

To “copy (or cut) & paste”, position your cursor at the beginning of the text you want to copy (or cut), hold down the left button on your mouse, drag the cursor over the text you wish to copy releasing the button when you reach the end of the text you wish to select. The text should highlight in blue.

Now ‘right click’ ON the BLUE, and click on “copy” from the drop down menu box. Go to the location where you wish to paste the information to. Place the cursor in the appropriate location, right click on the cursor, then click on “paste” in the drop down menu. BE SURE to click on ‘submit’ or ‘save’, otherwise the paste is not likely to ‘save’ were you have placed it.

Happy Marketing
