Making Money Online Forum

Every startup needs to understand that the customer paradigm has dramatically shifted over the past two years with pervasive social networks and smartphones. The customer base is no longer a mass audience that can be driven by mass media, but a dynamic network of individual customers who interact with each other, and expect to interact with you as a business.

If your business doesn’t connect with your customers, individually and as a community, demanding customers will not only ignore you, but will actively keep other customers away. According to the 2009 Tribalization of Business Study by Deloitte Development, one third of all online communities now launched by businesses fail to engage even a hundred participants.

A new book by David L. Rogers, titled The Network is Your Customer, elaborates on this paradigm shift, and outlines the following five key strategies to thrive in this digital age, prioritized from the most basic to the most complex in value to the customer:

  1. Access to your business from the relevant network of customers. Every organization today faces the expectations of an always-on world. To compete, startups must find ways to provide customers an easier, faster, more pervasive connection to digital networks, via mobile as well as the Internet.

  2. Engage customers with relevant and valuable content. In an environment of media overload and rampant ad-skipping, startups that want to engage customer networks need to create content that customers actually want to consume. Funny videos and worthless give-aways won’t make your website go “viral” these days.

  3. Customize your interactions to meet unique customer needs. You need to give customers the tools to customize products, services, and content to suit their needs and interests, to engage them more deeply, add value, and differentiate your offering from competitors.

  4. Connect to the customer in your communication. Join in conversations with customers who are already shaping brand perception and sharing their ideas and opinions on the Web. Conversations may be on existing social media, or on your own brand forum established specifically for this purpose.

  5. Collaborate with customers on shared goals. One of the most powerful ways to engage customer networks is to invite them to collaborate with your startup on shared goals and projects. This requires the right balance of motivators (love, glory, and money), and the right balance of bottoms-up versus top-down control.

Many businesses that seem to understand the new paradigm still fall for some common mistakes, like the following, that can blunt the effectiveness of their efforts:

  • Infatuation with technology. Founders too often see a list of the latest hot tools, and go after them, without first making the proper analysis and connect to relevant customers. The best tools, if not relevant or used incorrectly, can’t save you.

  • Lack of customer insight. Startups launch plans without taking the time to understand the networked behavior of their customers, or the drivers for that behavior.

  • Lack of clear objectives. Without a clear scope and vision, efforts become unfocused, lack impact, and are impossible to measure. Everyone on the team has to be involved and on board, or the efforts will be fragmented.

This book outlines a good process for planning and implementing a customer network strategy to match your customers, your business, and your objectives – whether you need to drive sales, reduce costs, gain customer insight, or build breakthrough products and services.

The bottom line is that today, whatever your goals and whatever your business, the network is your customer. Connect to it and win customers.

Politico said he wasn’t, now Fox News (and Frum Forum) say he is. To help you process this news, read Ed’s post from this morning about Obama potentially spending a cool billion on the 2012 campaign and then have a look at Jay Cost’s graph of Republican fundraising over the last four cycles. Said Cost, believing that Steele was set to bow out, “In the end, this is what did Michael Steele in. He could not raise the money, and that just will not do moving forward.”


Or will it?


Ending weeks of rumors that he would not seek a second term, Steele plans to throw his hat into the ring during a conference call with RNC members at 7:30 p.m. ET, the sources said. Steele is said to be amused by false reports of his retirement and intentionally kept his plans secret for the last month in order to flush out competitors for the post, Fox has learned.


During Steele’s tenure, Republicans picked up 63 House seats in last month’s elections, the biggest gain in more than seven decades. But Steele has been dogged by criticism from some Republicans who see him as prone to missteps.


Criticism of Steele has helped lead to a crowded field of challengers seeking to head the RNC. Among those who have officially announced they are in the race are Saul Anuzis, a committee member from Michigan who ran and lost to Steele in 2009, and Reince Priebus of Wisconsin, a former member of Steele’s inner circle, along with former Luxembourg Ambassador Anne Wagner.


So that explains why he didn’t show up at the RNC chair debate: He was lying low, cagily making it look like he wouldn’t run again so that, er … more contenders would jump into the race. Frum Forum’s whip count puts him at around 45-60 votes in the first round of balloting, with 85 needed to win; several of his former aides and allies (Reince Priebus, Gentry Collins, etc) are in the race as challengers, so a key question will be what happens to their supporters if/when they’re eliminated in the first few rounds. Are those supporters so disgruntled with Steele that they’ll gravitate to a consensus alternative, like Saul Anuzis? Or are they actually clubby RNC insiders who prefer Priebus and Collins to Steele but will resort to the chairman as a next best option if their preference is eliminated? Or will some outsider with fundraising appeal, like Norm Coleman, sweep in to provide yet another alternative?


There are only two reasons to conceivably back Steele, as I see it. One: The GOP did, after all, win 63 seats on his watch, and he’s been lying low enough over the last few months that at least it looks like the gaffe-o-rama phase of his chairmanship is finally over. All of which is well and good, but in that case I urge you to follow the link up top and eyeball Cost’s graph again. The question isn’t whether the GOP did well this year, it’s whether it could have done better if the RNC had been flush with cash. Gentry Collins argued that poor fundraising might have cost Republicans an extra two dozen House seats, but given that he’s now challenging Steele for the chairman’s position, take that estimate for what it’s worth. Two: If you believe that, in an age of online donations and targeted giving to campaigns, the RNC will never again be relevant the way it once was, then maybe it’s better to keep Steele in place. It’ll avoid a nasty public squabble between pro-Steele factions, led by Palin, and anti-Steele factions like the “Bush establishment,” and it’ll spare us the spectacle of Steele doing interviews to dump on the GOP after he loses. Plus, if Steele’s reelected, Republican outside groups are bound to start planning way ahead to pick up the slack in case the RNC can’t get its act together to fulfill its traditional fundraising and GOTV roles. No one cares about the RNC as an organization, only that its functions are being done and done well by some conservative outfit. If Steele’s reelected, it means that some other outfit or outfits will be pressured to step up. Inconvenient, but not fatal. I think.

I've gone through many of the trials & tribulations of attempting to make money online. In this article I'll give an overview of the pros and cons of some of the ways to make money on the internet by relaying my experiences with them.

Blogging
While searching online for money-making tips one of the more prominent strategies you'll likely come across is to start your own blog. This can generate income by way of ads on your blog that pay a miniscule amount every time a visitor clicks on them. That miniscule amount doesn't sound too bad if you consider getting thousands of hits on your blog and a fraction of those hits going to the ads as well.

The reality of the blog itself is that it can take a very long time and a lot of hard work to establish a blog that generates enough traffic to make you anything. You'll likely see nothing coming of your efforts for months, if ever. Blogging for an income really depends on your patience, determination, and the ability to market your blog. It also depends on the topic you're blogging on and what kind of interest it garners. If you blog on a very popular topic, you're going to have competition, and you may not be able to tap into the popularity of that topic because you're overshadowed by more established blogs. If you blog on a very obscure topic, you may find readers, but you may not find enough to make it worthwhile.

In the end, blogging is a possible source of income but a fairly unlikely one. Consider this option only if you have the time and persistence to stick with it for the long haul. I personally gave up after realizing I just did not have the patience.

Pay-Per-Click, Pay-Per-Post, etc.
If you're desperate enough you may consider those sites that pay you for clicking on ads. Those sites that usually pay a few cents per click. Yes, those. The only real way to make money on these things is to refer a ton of people. I'm not sure how you'd go about referring a bunch of strangers, but I certainly wouldn't want anyone I know to know that I was sitting around clicking ads for pennies at a time. This option is a waste of time.

As for pay-per-post, there are forum operators out there who need someone to post on their board to make it appear active so that new members are encouraged to join. They'll hire people to post and pay them a measily amount for it. I'm not sure exactly how much, as I haven't fully investigated this option. It seemed too much like the pay-to-click option for me to bother.

Marketing Schemes
Yes, schemes. There are so many marketing "programs" and "systems" out there. How many of them are legitimate? I don't know. I guess some of them can be considered legitimate, but none of them really look like it. They want you to join up and then get more people to join up under you... or something. You know, typical pyramid scheme-type stuff. Some people do make money doing this, though if I was one of them I'd imagine I would feel like a bit of a scumbag. I wouldn't recommend this, although I'm no expert on the details.

Selling Stock Photography
A lot of stock photography websites will pay you every time you sell a photo you've posted. This seems like a solid option to me, unfortunately I don't currently own a camera that has a resolution high enough to meet the standards set by many of these sites. I posted a photo on a site with lighter restrictions, and I think it's a decent enough photo. I put it up for only two bucks, but it hasn't sold once. I don't know whether that's due to the lower traffic of the site, the quality of my photography, or what. I'd like to try this out more in the future. I'd recommend giving it a whirl if you meet the requirements.

Play Online Poker
I haven't tried this, as I have a policy of trying to make money from nothing rather than investing anything of my own. I guess I could try building up from ten dollars or so. That would take studying and practicing poker to become good enough to consistently win, though. This one can be a real risk, even if you're good. The emotional ups and downs of winning and losing are a negative in my book, as well.

Freelance Writing
I'm trying this out right now. By posting this article here at Associated Content I'll earn $1.50 per thousand views it gets. I didn't do it just for the money though, I swear!

Hopefully I've saved you some time and given some insight on a few of the ways to... "make money", online. One thing to keep in mind is that there is no magic system out there that you can sign up for, put in a minimal amount of work, and get paid. Even the most logical of us seems to subconciously search for it, though. You just have to forget about that and find something that you can work at and make work for you. Good luck.

Every startup needs to understand that the customer paradigm has dramatically shifted over the past two years with pervasive social networks and smartphones. The customer base is no longer a mass audience that can be driven by mass media, but a dynamic network of individual customers who interact with each other, and expect to interact with you as a business.

If your business doesn’t connect with your customers, individually and as a community, demanding customers will not only ignore you, but will actively keep other customers away. According to the 2009 Tribalization of Business Study by Deloitte Development, one third of all online communities now launched by businesses fail to engage even a hundred participants.

A new book by David L. Rogers, titled The Network is Your Customer, elaborates on this paradigm shift, and outlines the following five key strategies to thrive in this digital age, prioritized from the most basic to the most complex in value to the customer:

  1. Access to your business from the relevant network of customers. Every organization today faces the expectations of an always-on world. To compete, startups must find ways to provide customers an easier, faster, more pervasive connection to digital networks, via mobile as well as the Internet.

  2. Engage customers with relevant and valuable content. In an environment of media overload and rampant ad-skipping, startups that want to engage customer networks need to create content that customers actually want to consume. Funny videos and worthless give-aways won’t make your website go “viral” these days.

  3. Customize your interactions to meet unique customer needs. You need to give customers the tools to customize products, services, and content to suit their needs and interests, to engage them more deeply, add value, and differentiate your offering from competitors.

  4. Connect to the customer in your communication. Join in conversations with customers who are already shaping brand perception and sharing their ideas and opinions on the Web. Conversations may be on existing social media, or on your own brand forum established specifically for this purpose.

  5. Collaborate with customers on shared goals. One of the most powerful ways to engage customer networks is to invite them to collaborate with your startup on shared goals and projects. This requires the right balance of motivators (love, glory, and money), and the right balance of bottoms-up versus top-down control.

Many businesses that seem to understand the new paradigm still fall for some common mistakes, like the following, that can blunt the effectiveness of their efforts:

  • Infatuation with technology. Founders too often see a list of the latest hot tools, and go after them, without first making the proper analysis and connect to relevant customers. The best tools, if not relevant or used incorrectly, can’t save you.

  • Lack of customer insight. Startups launch plans without taking the time to understand the networked behavior of their customers, or the drivers for that behavior.

  • Lack of clear objectives. Without a clear scope and vision, efforts become unfocused, lack impact, and are impossible to measure. Everyone on the team has to be involved and on board, or the efforts will be fragmented.

This book outlines a good process for planning and implementing a customer network strategy to match your customers, your business, and your objectives – whether you need to drive sales, reduce costs, gain customer insight, or build breakthrough products and services.

The bottom line is that today, whatever your goals and whatever your business, the network is your customer. Connect to it and win customers.

Ending weeks of rumors that he would not seek a second term, Steele plans to throw his hat into the ring during a conference call with RNC members at 7:30 p.m. ET, the sources said.

Or will some outsider with fundraising appeal, like Norm Coleman, sweep in to provide yet another alternative?


There are only two reasons to conceivably back Steele, as I see it.
