Just like in the culinary arts, Internet Marketing would require some things from you before you could enjoy the many splendors it offers.  After all, we won’t be able to do a lot in the kitchen if we don’t have the proper tools, right?

The first thing you should arm yourself with is a working knowledge of how online transactions are facilitated.

There are four fundamental components in real world trading.  These are:

• Seller
• Product
• Buyer
• Payment

Basically, you will be the seller.  As a seller, you must have products to sell.  You will have to look for a buyer who is interested in your products.  The buyer must be willing to pay for your product.  Upon payment, you will deliver your products to the buyer.  After which, a sale is considered consummated.

This, in a nutshell, is how businesses are conducted.  It is no different on the Internet.  The same principles apply.

The first step in Internet Marketing, therefore, is Product Creation.  You must be able to offer a product that people will want.  Of course, it’s not as easy as it seems, but we will simplify matters in the succeeding chapters, and you will be provided with tips, tactics and suggestions as well.

Once you have a product that you believe is sellable, you have to look for a buyer.  This stage is called Marketing.  You have to promote your product and expose it to as many people as possible.  The wonders of the Internet allow you to do this for free, or at the very least for minimal charge, compared to offline marketing wherein companies spend countless dollars just to inform people of their goods.  There are many strategies that can assure the efficiency of your marketing campaign, and they will also be discussed in succeeding chapters.

Once you have a buyer, you must also have a way for him to pay for your product.  This is quite different from the way things are done in real life.  Online payment would depend on a number of factors:

• Payment method preferred by the buyer
• Buyer’s geographical location
• Payment system you have in place
• Your geographical location
• Terms of purchase

These factors should be considered as early as possible, that is, during the time when you are designing your website.  You must have a payment system employed in your site that could easily accommodate any buyer’s preferred payment method.  Again, this will be discussed in the following chapters.

As we move along, you will discover that the many money-making opportunities that can be found online are just variations of the model we’ve discussed above.  Yes, it’s that simple.  Business was never meant to be complicated.

These variations, and some proven ways to exploit them for maximum earning potentials, will be presented in the pages to come.

What will NOT be discussed in the subsequent chapters, however, is the most important requisite of being a successful Internet Marketer:

Patience.

Dear friend, if you’re expecting to become a millionaire overnight, then I’m sorry to inform you that you’re reading the wrong book.  Nothing that grand can come so quickly, unless of course you’re in Vegas and Lady Luck is smiling at you.

But you will earn a lot.  That is guaranteed.  All you need is a little patience in following the instructions that will be revealed in these pages.

It’s a small thing to ask.  After all, Rome wasn’t built in a day.

This book will contain all that you’ll need to know to start earning money online, and you will make money online!

But you will risk a big chance of failure if you do not practice patience.

Patience includes prudence, that is, diligently studying every scenario that you are confronted with.  This book will arm you with the knowledge and the tools to succeed, but eventually, it will be you who has to apply them.

You will experience different circumstances everyday.  This book will teach you how to deal with them.  But ultimately, you’re the one who has to learn how to adapt.

Without patience, your efforts will be for naught.  Without patience, even a guaranteed victory will crumble.  I can’t teach you patience, dear friend.  I could only tell you of its importance.

So please remember this very important requisite.  Keep it in your heart, and never forget.

Once you’ve done that, we’re ready to start.
