"Your Online Business...Just Like Any Other Business...Almost!"Copyright 2002 John EvansCan you compare your online business with the store down the street, or around the corner? Yes, you can!The basic difference, of course, is that you do yourselling on the Internet, and the local stores sell from -well, stores. Kind of obvious, isn't it?They have merchandise. You have merchandise Theysell to customers that come into their stores, and yousell to customers that come to your web site.Which proves...? That you BOTH need customers.But, they do have a very distinct advantage over those of us on the Internet, although a small one. They havea store building that sits out in the open for all passersbyto see. We, however, need to advertise in order tobring customers in, because we do not have a 'storefront' for all to see. Either way we do business, we all need to advertise!Our advantage is of being able to advertise for FREE, using ezines, sig files, etc., and reach masses ofpeople easily, and quickly. Do they have competition like we do? Of course. Theysell bread, and the store around the corner sells bread.Take the grocery stores, for instance. How many are inyour neighborhood, all selling much of the same food goods? That's called 'competition', and we all haveto face it, one way or another, at some time. Right?Does one stop selling bread', just because the guyaround the corner also sells bread? NO!Do we stop selling a particlular item online, just because others are also selling it online? NO, WE DON'T...!Businesses are built on competition, and our online businesses are no different. If a certain piece of merchandise you sell is notmoving well, maybe it is time to replace it. ButNOT just because others also sell it.If others are trying to sell for $3.95 what others,and you, are selling for $19.95, THAT is notcompetition, that is called "cutthroat" business.Whatever the competition is, we need to face it,and deal with it as best we can.So, don't be afraid of competition ... we all have it.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++copyright 2002 John Evanshttp://www.dailybiz.com/freeads.htmYou can use this article but please leave it intact.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Article Tags: Online Businessjust, Just Because
