Internet Marketer...What does IT mean?!

What is an internet marketer, or online marketer? What is internet marketing? Heck, what is marketing period even for that matter? Why should you care about it? What are the benefits and downfalls of it? SIMPLE. An internet marketer, or online marketer is simply someone who markets online. Funny thing, it is a fancy word for "sophisticated salesman or saleswoman". Tell you what the difference is though between an offline marketer and an internet marketer. Offline marketers pitch to family and friends, their cold market and people that quite frankly are much more resistant to whatever they have to say or sell. This is where the cold calling from the phone book, and prospecting random strangers, and passing out business cards to random people comes into play. All complete forms of ineffective marketing. What is marketing and at another angle what is effective marketing. Seriously folks. GET REAL. This is the 21st century and if you really think about, the best salesmen don't have to sell anything. Because they build relationships and focus on social media and technology, the product(s) pretty much sell itself.
