Ten Reasons Why Internet Marketing is the Best Marketing Model

You are not convinced that internet marketing could be your marketing model of choice? Here are ten reasons that will convince you why internet marketing will be the best marketing model, no matter what type of products or services you offer.

1. No other marketing method can work for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Also, no other marketing method has the potential to reach customers all over the world, instead of the limited circulation area of whatever traditional avenues you choose.
2. Though it is not free, the Internet is the most cost-effective method of advertising your business and your products. Your investment in Internet marketing will involve much more of your time than your money. If you think there are cheaper methods of advertising, call your local newspaper and ask about display advertising rates.
3. You can reach a broad, diverse potential customer base, particularly if you set up multiple websites.
4. You can have a seamless vertical and horizontal business integration using the internet and spending the least cost. This can be achieved by having various websites in different niches and promoting relevant products in those niches.
5. Even those visitors who don't become immediate customers can be added to your database, and likely translated into future sales.
6. The Internet brings your products and services to life like no other media. Only television commercials can provide as much motion as a website, and television is not interactive—you can't click on a TV screen! (Besides, can you guess how much a television commercial will set you back financially?)
7. Just imagine the expenses that you may need to incur if you were to have a network of offices around the world. But, on the internet, by enlisting professionals, who are into affiliate marketing, you will have a bigger network of web publishers and affiliate marketers (in fact, millions of them) and at, practically, no cost to maintain the network. They will be able to do a much better job of promoting your products as they will earn incentives.
8. More than 1114 million people have access to the Internet and that number is growing every day. You have the potential to harness far more customers than a strictly land-based business ever will.
9. This is the only marketing model which is the most cost effective, requires least capital, generates the most revenues, with practically NIL overheads, requires no special skills except for common sense and with the highest growth potential.
10. With the latest Web 2.0 technology catching on like wild fire, it has become even more easier to market and monetize through internet marketing.
