Tommy & Mary McGuire: Successful StoresOnline Merchants

To make up the decreased sales, Tommy looked around for venues and opportunities to make up what had been lost. It was then that he decided the Internet could be a good avenue to offer his line of products.

Tommy hired a local Web site designer and began to build a nice Web site. After over 500 hours of work on the Web site, it was going to be nothing more than “an online brochure.”

Tommy and Mary realized they were not getting where they wanted to go on their own, so they attended a StoresOnline Preview and then a StoresOnline Workshop.

Tommy emphasizes the difference between his experiences on the internet before and after StoresOnline. “From my experience, trying to start my own…website and talk to the local computer gurus and website builders,” he says, “and wasting money with them, I finally came to the point, you know, I need…real professionals.”

Yahoo Search Marketing Tips

If you haven't explored the world of pay-per-click marketing, StoresOnline suggests that you start with either Google Adwords or Yahoo Search Marketing. Here are a few brief ideas about Yahoo Search Marketing for PPC newbies.

Yahoo Search Marketing allows you to display ads on search results pages when people search for your keywords. You choose the keywords, and you determine how much you will pay for each click. You only pay if someone clicks on your ad and visits your site, and you are in complete control of your keywords, your ad, and your budget.

The first thing you'll need to do when you set up your advertising campaign is choose keywords. Yahoo Search Marketing helps you choose keywords and keyword phrases based on your web site and suggestions you enter. You choose your maximum bid for each keyword, and you can set up different ads for different keywords to improve your targeting. You are in complete control at all times.

One great feature of Yahoo Search Marketing is that it makes local advertising on the Internet very easy and affordable. You can choose geographical areas you want to advertise to, and Yahoo sends your ads only to their visitors in those areas. This means that you will not get clicks from people who can't do business with you; your ads will be targeted to your local area and bring in local visitors who can, and will, use your products or services.

Yahoo Search Marketing has been improving their search platform for quite some time now. The system they have created is somewhat different than Google Adwords, however it does show promise and handles a decent amount of website traffic to make YSM worthwile looking at.

Good luck with your online store and internet business!

What Makes A StoresOnline Success?

Every StoresOnline Success Story has different elements, however there are basic elements of success that you will find with each StoresOnline Entrepreneur. We've highlighted a few of these success elements for you:

Hard Work - Jerry Lillie’s story shows how his hard work paid off on his journey from a corporate layoff to signing that same company on as his distributor.

Determination - Karla with a K compares her first experience with eCommerce as having a skeleton of a successful e-commerce business. “It didn’t have any way to track traffic, to track conversion rate, or really to—it didn’t have a natural connection to any shipper or merchant account solutions. It just didn’t have a lot of things that StoresOnline has.”

Making the Most Out of Life's Unforseen Circumstances - Jeffrey and Deanna Vaughan never imagined that Jeffrey’s debilitating knee injury would be the beginning of a successful e-commerce business.

In Control of Personal Destiny - Sue Anderson made her living as a freelance photographer for over twenty years, but she says that she was starting to burn out. “Freelance photography is wonderful," she admitted, "but it can be very stressful. I finally got to the point where I wanted a change in my life,”...

There are many reasons why a person seeks out an entrepreneurial opportunity - these stories help showcase a few of the elements of success that StoresOnline Merchants possess and continue to nurture as they enjoy their personal successes. Will you be the next StoresOnline Success Story? You won't know unless you try.

StoresOnline: What is the Truth?

I’ve spent time reading through other blogs about StoresOnline and found that they are missing a lot of critical information. They give the appearance of “personal experience” amidst all the bad language and blame, but there seems to be a lack of personal responsibility to their dreams and to others. They seem to spread their doubt and bad attitude without a true conviction to offer a helping hand or any encouragement or alternative aside from complaining.

Most of those posts reminded me of this famous quote:

What comes out of you when you are squeezed is what is inside you. - Wayne Dyer

StoresOnline may not be the company for everyone, but if you are new to eCommerce, if you need a website building software program that is user friendly, and if you need technical and customer support that is available to you for the life of your website, then StoresOnline may be the company you choose to team up with.

Every person has their own story – If you have read those “truth telling blogs” then I suggest that you balance what they’ve said with testimonials from people who have had success with StoresOnline. When you read testimonials from people who have been on the same road you have and have actually experienced StoresOnline first hand – you will see why they are excited about their new found business and freedom. Click here to go to the StoresOnline Testimonial section.

I am contacting these success story merchants and asking for them to comment of the following items:

1) StoresOnline Merchant’s personal experience with StoresOnline Customer Support

2) Personal website experiences with StoresOnline Pro or StoresOnline Express

3) A StoresOnline Merchant’s personal experience with the StoresOnline Programming Department

4) A StoresOnline Merchant’s favorite feature of StoreOnline Pro or StoresOnline Express software

5) Helpful tips for other StoresOnline Merchants or other online business entrepreneurs

6) A thank you message to a Customer Support Representative or Programmer that has assisted you in the past with a StoresOnline website issue

I want to hear from their experience what made them choose StoresOnline. Keep checking back with this blog and get some balance to the “truth about StoresOnline” that is out there.
Best of luck in your online endeavors.
