Chronicle of Journey of A Doctor Into World of Internet Marketing
As a start up business person. I used to think that cheap is the way to sell. But as I pondered over the issue and observed people’s buying habits, a lot of factors emerged responsible for liking or disliking a particular product.
One of the fact is feeling of pride that comes with expensive products. Seth has written a good paragraph on this.

Recently I added RSS function to my Facebook page. I searched and then learnet how to add RSS to Facebook profile and page. I did it with RSS Graffiti. After some initial stumbles I finally managed to get RSS up on my page.
That was few days back. After I finished I knew how to work with RSS Graffiti.
Recently I decided to build another page and I was blank as fresh blackboard.
This time I did the whole process again with some fractured input from my memory.
Had I written the steps last time, I would not have wasted time to relearn the process again.
Lesson learned! [Read more...]

Raising it too high would bring disappointment…
Recently I thought of exercising again to shed off few kilos. I bought a treadmill and was all set to go. First day I could barely last for 5 minutes. Within minutes of starting the briskwalk on treadmill I was short of breath and my body was short of oxygen.
I had set my target at 10 minutes.
I failed the mark. [Read more...]

When I just entered into internet marketing arena, I was an absolute newbie. I had no experience in business beyond the spellings of the term and I did not much about internet. I belonged to field of medicine but that was of no use here. Terms, procedures, processes and methods.
There was a lot of stuff I do not know. And there was no body I could ask.
Every newbie undergoes the same experience. I can reflect back and look myself in mirror when a newbie asks a question. [Read more...]

As the days of my employment turn into months and years, I cannot help looking more and more at negative aspects of being employed. All the positive things about a job have started looking so much ineffective. If you clearly have a look at the pros and cons of having a job, cons outlast the pros.
What to do?
Job is a need and reality for most of us. Most of us cannot just say goodbye and then work on our businesses. I have been in a job because I am a healthcare provider and to exercise my skills, I need a system and team to work. Being in a job is the easy way to get into the team because the system is built by someone else. [Read more...]

Every day begin with its own challenges and objectives. Each morning we wake up to new set of riddles and problems waiting to be solved. Knowingly or unknowingly we do prioritize the problems in order to tackle them, guided either by the compulsion or the dire necessecity.
Because we are used to solve our problems on quickness and need basis, we often get slackened when the criteria is not matched for.
Usually a thing becomes priority only when either it is too pressing and affects our equilibrium if not attended to.

When I started my journey on the internet, I did not want to spend money on the projects. Naturally I looked for free versions of services. When I think back, I sometimes wonder how much I had lost in name of saving money.
I looked for free services at every step. I wanted free autoresponders, free CMS [There were many so I tried everyone and still not satisfied. It was long before WordPress had come into the scene], free article submission service, free ebooks, free softwares, free logo makers, free banner creators and so on.
The result was a lot of time being spent on understanding and using the free service.
Professional logo creation was available at a small price. Instead of focusing on this task, I should have asked somebody to make for me and instead concentrate on taking the business ahead.
It was easier to purchase a theme for CMS and get special assistance rather than browsing through free themes and then looking for support in the forums for problems faced.
But being new I acted foolish and in a way timid. I was not from business background and therefore did not have a strategy from beginning.
Free attracted me and I am sure it attracts you people as well.
I am not against free services. They are good but then they are also not as friendly as the paid ones.
And if you take time spent in consideration, the free might appear very costly.
