Yes it true that Marketing strategy always works on good planning beforehand. Without pre planning & vision, one cannot reach their target.

So true! I like this statement from Charles F. Haanel, Do you assert yourself or Do you follow the majority? Remember that majorities are led, they never lead. It was the majority that fought, tooth and nail, against the steam engine, the power loom and every other advance or improvement ever suggested.

Funny the very first thing I teach everyone is this: No one becomes a leader by being follower. When you follow successful people - you can expect success but only if you do what a successful person does not what they SAY. Then I explain if you want to be a leader and not just find success, you take what you want from those successful people - throw out what you don't want, and do things your own way. Because again no one becomes a leader by being a follower. :)

Well Bruce, there are those who have succeed and beat all odds. I feel sometimes having a business plan slows down the created flow. But thats the entrepreneuress I am.
I met a lady name Carole Dore', she stated in her lessons, that, had she had a business plan, she would have waited to get stared. In 1992, I started a Child Care business, with no business plan. When I wanted a loan, they wanted to see my business plan...on what I was going to use the money for. Thats when I needed a business

QueenHajar, Note that I said "If you do not have a game plan - you are very UNNLIKELY to succeed." Big difference in unlikely and won't.
Also I did say "Having no plan - is a sure way to fail!" and I say that because of exactly what you said... many STARTED without a plan - believe me if they found success, they figured out a plan.
Last - not all plans are business plans. I think most people need a marketing plan. I don't believe anyone succeeds without a marketing plan unless they are one o

Many successful Entrepreneurs and Entrepreneuress started their business without a business plan.
What they had was a burning desire for their dream. The Author of Think And Grow rich,
Napoleon Hill said, "What the Mind can Conceive, and Believe, It can Achieve". What he did do, was to first master himself.

Planning is the foundation for all business growth, regardless the venue. We have always included in the overall Business Plan (a must for those looking to use Tax deductions in the USA) the long term and End game.
Then used cash flow projection for the shorter terms 6 month annual etc. Amazing that, in over 50 years, most all projections and business growth and eventual sale, turned out as planned....
WHY, because we worked the PLAN

I think internet marketing is great for business, and the epitome of the world. But I am actually very successful in what I do - so I happen to know just how to market - as such I know how incredibly shady marketing is.
SEO is the hardest method of marketing to achieve while being the easiest way to reach success. However social marketing is FAR more beneficial for the lifeline of a a successul business. The question to ask yourself is - which do you want a successful business, or to make lot

I think internet marketing and SEO is good for online business. What do you think?

Do you have an actual plan for success? Or are you just tossing ads up places and hoping something works? Without a clear plan - you are very unlikely to succeed.
Have a game plan! This way you are never left saying "I don't know what to do next".
Having a game plan means figuring out who you should target your business at.
Having a game plan means knowing where online the people you are targeting your business at frequently visit.
Having a game plan means having all the proper materials nee
