There is No Failure in Trying…
I was reading Derek Gehl’s Blog on Marketing Tips. On his blog There is an article written by Jenn Blanchard about 7 topics for a killer viral eBook
Of course she makes great points on writing a killer viral ebook. But a reader on the blog made a really negative comment
If I had valuable information, or if I had the contacts in an industry that you mentioned, I would not be reading your ad in search of a good part-time business. Information on the internet has always been free; that’s why so many people use the net.
When I read that… I wondered how many people must have thought the same way. I responded to that post (which you can read but I’ll copy and paste it here, don’t you worry).
My Comment:
Although this is good advice but I think people reading James snow comment might feel discouraged. as He said, he doesn’t have any connections or info.
But anyways there is no certainty in viral marketing. You have to implement these kinds of methods many time to get that 1 lucky shot that’ll bring you tons of traffic. If your ebook doesn’t get viral. Try once again. If that fails too, try again.
You never fail if you try.. You’ll learn more about getting traffic. There is No Failure in Trying.
Now this is true for all the businesses, in education, in life. You’ll never exactly fail while trying. Failure is a learning process. Don’t forget You’ll fell many times before learning how to stand. Today walking is automatic process for you. If you had stopped trying before you learnt standing… You’d be spending rest of your life on your asses.
Going back to Viral Ebook Methodology.
She gave 7 techniques to write a viral ebook
Idea #1: Industry update report
Idea #2: Industry resource guide
Idea #3: Interviews with industry experts
and so on…
If I was working on this idea, I’d have tried any of the above tip and created a viral ebook. If somehow I failed, I would contemplate what exactly went wrong and try again. In fact I’d have tried all the above methods of write viral ebooks before just signing these ideas as useless.
In fact I’d have researched my own why some people can cause tons of viral traffic. If you notice there are few factors that makes it happen.
Often content is one of the main reasons of making things viral.
- Notice all the people who make things happen in your industry.
- Notice How they are doing things.
- Model their behaviour and repeat success (I said model not copy)
If you are reader of my blog, then you know I advocate lot of Hard work and Then Expectation to succeed.
Work Hard, Expect to Win - is my motto. Even if I am winning I’ll work hard. Why ? Cause its FUN.
