Planning A Successful Marketing Plan To Make Money Online
Since the last post I wrote about the “Top 5 Reasons Why People Fail In Making Money Online” I realized you guys have a major problem that need to be solved not 1 year later non tomorrow but RIGHT NOW.
As I was reading the comments, I realized a few of you guys have problems knowing how to plan a marketing plan for your online business. To be really successful in any online business you really need to know how to plan your time and things to do in your business. Because without planning and taking massive action on your plan you will not be able to measure your results to your efforts to get the end result you want.
I would not say this is a full proof marketing plan, but what I share here is basically what I have been practicing myself and it works for me
In any business regardless it’s online or offline you MUST have a marketing plan. Just in case you do not know what is that, a marketing plan is basically a sequence of stuff you plan to do within a certain amount of time to marketing a product or service.
To start making money from your marketing plan, you first need to write down what are your goals and objectives and time frame for your marketing plan.
Marketing Plan Example
Goal: 100 hits
Duration: 7 days
Marketing Method: Article Marketing Only
Amount Of Work Per Day: To publish 1 articles every day
Product To Marketing: Atomic Blogging
Targeted End Results: At least 1 sale (US$35 Commission)
*Do note you do not want to set your money goals or target goals too high as you will get yourself disappointed easily, it is only adviceable to set only achievable goals and targets to ensure you do not stress yourself too much
Once you have already decided on your plan of action for your marketing plan. This is the part where most people fail, you really need to be consistency taking action on your marketing plan and seriously doing it EVERY SINGLE DAY to get the most out of it! So for the example above mention, I will actually post an article every day just to target to hit 100 hits in 7 days.
You MUST Check Your Results Every Day
Then after, at the end of each day there is one more thing you need to do that many people always fail to do which is to track your results you get from your efforts. So let say you posted one article to promote a product. You have to find out using tracking tools how many hits actually went to the product page to determine your results. So lets say you only get like 5 hits from just posting 1 article in 1 day.
From there, you will need to evaluate your results. Will you be able to hit your 100 hits by the end of the 7 days if you continue to do just 1 article a day? Well the answer is obviously NO! Well with only 5 hits in 1 day with 1 article that’s really impossible, so that means you need to do some adjustments to your plan and increase the amount of effort needed, which is to post not just one article but maybe 5 or more articles per day
As each day past by, you will track the results at the end of each day and adjust your efforts as you go along. One note PLEASE DO NOT STOP doing the process and be consistence and do it all the way to end of the 7 days. Even if half way you met your goals like mention above, you must still continue on the process of marketing until the end of the 7 days please.
At The End Of The Campaign Here What To Do!
At the end of the 7 days, what you will do again is to summarized your results in one nice excel sheet with the hits and results you got on each day and how much sales you got. So let say after 7 days you get 100 hits from submitting 15 articles and resulted in 2 sales which is equal to US$70. So what you can do with these figures you need to find out what is your conversion ratio number to sale. So you will take (2 sales *100 hits)/100 which is 2% conversion.
With this conversion number now you now know that every 100 hits you get from article writing you get 2 sales to make US$70. So let’s say you want to make US$240 next week just target to get 300 hits from articles it’s that simple to be successful online
It’s just involved really lots of effort guys no kidding
I really hope this article has given you some tips and tricks I used in my business, I know this is not related to internet marketing but this process I felt was important for you guys to know before you embarked into any form of marketing tactic to drive traffic.
And trust me if you really do what is mentioned above in the next 7 days you will see results

2 more answers to make this an anchor post:
-Why you suddenly talkabout a month in “I will actually post an article every month just to target to hit 100 hits in 7 days.”
-Which of the tools do I use to do the tracking and in short how do I use it?
Great exercise selling… Atomic Blogging
Typo … just changed to day

Thanks for the ideas presented. In my case it is premature as I still have to register my blog and get myhfirst article(s) out. When I think of marketing plan I also think of something involving the total blogging effort. What I read above seems to me to be more of a specific and short term strategy. This is fine, but I would really like a business plan that focus more on the big picture. Perhaps you could have some ideas on this in a future blog.

What I put as 7 days is not the default duration you can even set it as 30 days, 60 days or 1 year it’s up to you
So what is Goal: 100 hits ?
In a way is it mean that writing 15 different article based on the 1 product to marketing ?
100 hits is how to wake up Alvin way too early in the morning.
It’s also meaning that you aim to get 100 clicks on the affiliate program you are promoting as the rule of thumb is: 1% of what you send to an affiliate will make a sale.
And if that’s not the case with Atomic Blogging… back to the first hits explanation
Thx Alvin!
Hi Alvin,
You’re right, we need to pick a method and stick with it consistently until it’s producing results.
So many of us are in the buy and try mode – buying soemthing new everyday, trying it for a few minutes, and then moving on to the next magic pill.
Gotta learn to ignore all those pitch emails!
