Branding Yourself & Home Based Business
If NIKE made notebooks. You'd know it was made by Nike just from the swoosh. I'm not talking about building popularity. I'm talking about Advertising yourself, your label, blog or web site. When someone makes a post on their Instagram or any other social network. We will always look at the person that made the post. So the first thing you need to do is come up with a business name and label.
Once you've come up with a business and label. You'll always want to work and advertise under that name and label. For instance, starting up a Twitter account. Everything should be under the your home based business brand. That's the same for when signing up for a affiliate program. Affiliate programs will always ask for your business name. At the same time, they will ask if this is an individual account and who to send the check to. Then of course you'd add your real name and so on. Quick note, I'd get a P.O. Box to handle all of my home based business supplies, etc.
Let's say your site is up and running. You have a few affiliate programs. You need traffic. The first thing that I'd do is sign up with as many free social media sites. Facebook, Myspace, Digg, etc. If you choose to buy traffic then that's on you. As for me I don't buy any traffic or sign up with any affiliate programs that charge a fee. Content and keywords is all you need.
When advertising. Don't ever promote just the product. Advertise your business. When you make a post. Give the viewers what they want to see and a place to go. Meaning to your site. Your brand name and link should be in everything. Going back to what I said about content and key words. Think about what people are going to type in to find you. If you were to say, " Nike on sale." That would build up Nike shoe keywords and popularity. If you were to say, Brand Name shoes for sale. Like Nike, Puma, and more." Brand Name would be your web site name building site up. Plus you have content with the Title. Being able to have your site pop up in different text.
If your looking but can't find trusted affiliate programs. You don't have to look any further. These are programs that I use my self. Take a look at a new blog site that I've created. My Pets, is a work in progress. It's good for you to see something in the making. Plus help you along with your own creative ideas.
