Internet Marketing, Xbox 360, and Apples New iPad
Hey so it’s awhile since I posted here, however due to some recent activity at my blog, I’ve decided to send you a treat with a blog post. I added this cool bar thing at the bottom of my site thanks to Sean Supplee, which is where I learned about it.
But anyway…
So I’m gonna talk about some real juicy stuff here, and this is the stuff that is the difference between….
make no money and some money
makin some money versus good money
makin good money to LOTS of money
And I’m not exaggerating one bit. In fact, I’m gonna PROVE it to you with some real world examples.
Internet Marketing… business … if you want to be successful in these, one thing you must realize is that leverage is a key factor to success. Yeah there’s lots of factors, but lets talk about leverage today.
By leverage, I’m referring to maximizing the use of your current resources. Getting the most “bang for your buck”.
Do you play video games? Look at Microsoft’s Xbox 360 video game console. It was well publicized when the system first launched, that they were actually losing money on every console that they sold. Whoa, losing money? Microsoft sure isn’t in business to lose money, so what gives?
In essence, they were building a list of customers and leveraging their system to do it. The key in this case was they were willing to lose money up front so that more people would be using the Xbox 360.
Why?
Microsoft makes money on every game. They sell accessories like controllers, headsets, etc. They make money selling you downloads. They’ve got an entire community, and they want you hooked on it. They sell premium access to their online content. Oh and they also sell you points there too (basically currency to buy stuff on their system).
Suddenly selling at a loss isn’t such a big deal when they’re selling you more stuff left and right! And they KNOW you’ll buy something, otherwise there’d be no point in you having the system in the first place.
Big news in the tech/biz world, Apple just publicly announced it’s new iPad. Basically a giant iPod/Table PC type of device. Same pretty much goes for their iPod and iPhone lines as well. Think of all the cash they make there too! They’ve got accessories. They have an app store. They sell mp3’s. And they want you hooked on their smooth interface so you’ll buy everything else they come out with later.
So looking at Microsoft and Apple, they are both leveraging their products in order to create massive, massive profits… not just sales on the front end.
But the big question is, what are YOU doing to create your OWN profits?
So now we’ve got internet marketing. Look at all the top Internet Marketers, go back to their sites and SEE how they are raking lots of extra cash in ways you may not have even noticed!
Some simple things you can do today are:
Can you see how just doing a minor thing ONE TIME, can create lifelong streams of additional income for your business? You probably won’t see the results immediately, but if you start using more leverage in your business today, you may find yourself raking in insane profits in the future…
