A compendium and Meeting place for Digital Artists

Looking to the future, some retail outfits will simply do nothing but internet new graphical design marketing, since this produces the most qualified customers

isn’t alone with these new ideas. Karon Runde, who manages one person company, believes the internet marketing boom has created a huge market for small time business owners. “For the first few years of my career,” said Ned Roden, “I was working 9 to 5 at a marketing firm, doing the typical corporate thing. Now, however, I have my own website, production center, and payment processing. This allows me to work from home under my own rules and with unlimited income potential.” Without a doubt, in the pre-internet marketing days, most new graphical design resellers only used the internet as a means to communicate via email with current customers. “Things in the industry really turned a corner when people began to acquire, not maintain customers online,” said Thang Gate, a noted internet marketer and web designer. “When acquisiton via online services got big, companies in the new graphical design sector finally woke up to the idea that the information super highway was here to stay - in a very big way.” Equally important in the online sales arena is affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing is reselling your new graphical design product through individual webmasters and their websites, giving them typically 5 to 20 % for each successful sales. This form of marketing is purely results driven, and it requires only a small investment on behalf of the company running the affiliate program. “We rely on affiliate marketing to drive our new graphical design sales and lead acquisition, mostly because some webmasters in our field are better at marketing online than we are,” said Bettina Stoutt, Marketing Chairman for Diss Abadie Partners LLC. And, as internet sales in the new graphical design industry explode, parallel growth is being noted in the internet marketing field, particularly search engine and affiliate marketing. “Search engines and affiliates have doubled our numbers,” said Scully Hussar, director of marketing for Gaynelle Williston INC., “and where there was once one or two big internet marketing firms, now there are well over ten in our industry. This growth speaks to the power of the information super high way.” “With internet new graphical design sales booming, we may have to cut back on in person sales teams,” said Waltersheid Reiswig, director of Human Resources for Maenius Vines INC, “mainly because we are losing money in that operational area. As we move forward, we’ll give those employees new job opportunities in our new graphical design company before we actually lay them off, so that they can continue to grow with our company if they so desire.” Marketing online, however, is not as easy as it looks. Thousands of websites compete for top positioning in the search engines, and, as search algorithms change and top search engines create new market areas, some websites can lose out. One day, you might be number one for “buy new graphical design”, a week later, number 100. The difference between these positions is obvious: no one wades through 100 results for a new graphical design product unless the first 99 are extremely poor. In general, most competitive industries online rely on top 10 placement, because of the reality of how web surfers behave. “After starting an internet new graphical design sales division in 2003, we saw our sales increase three-fold,” said Arlinda Narayan, director of marketing and sales for Kaighn Bushaw and Sabrina Plessinger Associates, “and this resulted in the creation of more jobs and employment opportunities in our company. Our number of employees has doubled, and our number of IT staff has quadrupled in a year’s time.” “When we added a website and shopping cart system, our numbers went through the roof,” cried Radics Mcsparin, Sales Director for Cecily Steinhouse Corp, a new graphical design manufacturing company, “this, teamed with high positioning in the major search engines really created a whole new market for us that was never expected.”
