Internet Marketing 101

I’ve fully submersed myself in the world of internet marketing, and I’d definitely consider myself a specialist now. I’m learning more and more every day about the tricks of the trade, and simply, it’s all about putting new information out there. Although it is a science and an ever-changing market.

I’ve developed some fabulous clients, and my Rolodex is building daily. I’m most excited about Watercube USA — I’ve successfully developed a logo, slogan and mini-Web site for the company. Do you live by the ocean? Are you paying exorbitant amounts for clean water? You might need a WaterCube unit; it purifies salt water for only $6 per 1,000 gallons! This is perfect for those living on an island, like in the Florida Keys. It’s very exciting being part of the beginning of a company that can skyrocket at any minute!

Also very exciting, I’ve decided to incorporate myself. I’m still trying to decide on a name, but since I’m technically working as an independent contractor for EPSIT and have several freelance jobs on the side, I might as well do it legitimately. I’m only 22, just graduated college, developed a niche for myself, and I’m basically running my own business. Life can only go up from here, and I have to say, I’m pretty proud of myself! I write Web site content, business articles, monthly newsletters, design advertisements, design logos, work heavily with social media and anything else marketing related.

I’ve always been a writer. I’ve loved it since my first complement on a poem I wrote in 5th grade. I started out running the high school newspaper and realized I definitely have a passion for writing, but I wanted to work in a field other than newspapers (It’s becoming antiquated these days anyway!). Once in college, I thought I’d end up starting my own magazine, and I still might one day, but for now I love what I do. I’ve gone with the flow of pop culture and technology and jumped on the train of search engine marketing. Although I love using colorful adjectives to paint a story onto a page, I’ve scaled back my writing and learned to write for optimization. It’s a WHOLE different world, but it’s very cool.

Every day is different, and I get most Fridays off; who could ask for more? Hopefully within the next few months I’ll be able to get my own place again and work remotely from Palm Beach (or anywhere fun, young in South Florida). I can’t wait to see where I am and what I’ve done six months from now!
