Are you placing your ad on the web and not getting any response?
There are three basic things that you must do in order to succeed when placing
your ads online:
1. Be Consistent.
A one shot ad will simply not work. This is true even when placing ads off-line.
If you do not plan on running your ad a minimum of 6 to 12 times, then you should
expect that your efforts will fail.
The more exposure you give your ad, the greater the chance that it will accomplish
what you are trying to do, which is to get a positive response. Place your ads
consistently.
2. Target Your Ad.
Aim your ad at the type of customer you need to attract for your particular
market. It is a waste of time and effort to run an ad that gets the attention
of someone only to discover that what you have would not be appropriate for
that individual.
Determine what type of person would most likely be interested in your product
or service and find those places online where that type of individual would
be found.
An excellent source for prospects can be tapped by placing your ads in one
of the many online newsletter or e-zine publications that already cater to that
particular target market.
You can find online publications that cover just about any subject imaginable
by doing a little research at one of the many newsletter/e-zine directories
that list them for you.

3. Work Your Leads.
Respond to the initial inquiry for more information. Then make certain to follow-up
that lead with another message, usually several days after the first contact.
Considering making use of a FREE Auto-Responder service that will help you
to automate the process of follow-up.

Keep in constant and continuous contact with your leads but do not become a
pest about it. Daily contact without first having some additional contact from
your prospect would be too much. Allow them time to review your info.
However, a once-a-week message may work perfectly to keep your offer fresh
in their minds and is exactly what you need to do to close that first sale with
your prospect.
Follow these few tips and it will vastly improve your rate of success to turn
cold prospects into new customers.
