Press Release Body: When you saw this heading you possibly thought of real estate or
search engine placement.

While this is very applicable to these two systems I want to take you a little
deeper into the concept of positioning yourself for success online.

Position is really a life skill with its own set of strategies and skills.

Position: A place or location. A strategic area occupied by members of a force. An
advantageous place or location. A point of view or attitude on a certain question.
Sports. The area for which a particular player is responsible. The arrangement of
the pieces or cards at any particular time in a game such as chess, checkers, or
bridge.

Over the past seven years I have been involved in Internet Marketing. The first five
as part time and the last two years full time. Many people asked how I made the
graduation from part time to full time and the answer is always positioning.

The Concept of Positioning.

If you have played or watched sports at any time you will know that positioning is
the key to winning or losing. In football you need to be in position to accept the
ball if you are going score.

The same applies to your life and business.

My basketball coach always told me that I needed to put all my effort to get into
the right position and once I got there I could have a rest. I think you would know
.... he lied. Once you get into position there is no rest as you then have to
maintain that position.

Positioning is a skill that can be developed:

It is very important to do your homework because positioning is a skill that is
developed by training and studying. It is not a haphazard occurrence.

Last year I was looking at a new business I could start up online so I looked at
what was growing and developing. In doing this I found that baby boomers are an
economic force in the community and that they like gadgets, technology, investments
because they are rapidly approaching retirement and health for a similar reason.

I also found that streaming audio was becoming something that people wanted to use
on websites without the need for special servers, a lot of technical ability etc. In
fact in my research it was the fastest growing multimedia tool people were looking
for. So I went out and found a product I could develop to position myself in the
middle of this growing market. Hence was born MP3 Sound Stream that allows anybody
to add streaming audio to their website easily and simply.

Positioning for life.

I know that we are mainly talking about business in this article however if you do
not also use positioning in your everyday life then it will not flow over into your
business. Success is a mixture of both personal and business strategies and this is
why so many people when they come into large sums of money loose it within five
years and are back to where they started if not worse off.

They had not positioned themselves in life to handle the pressures and
responsibility of their new found wealth. This is possibly why many people who start
working for themselves also do not make much more than they did in their job. They
never re-positioned themselves.

Summary

As I mentioned before positioning is a skill you can develop.

1. Find out what position you want or are capable of attaining.

One of my friends is a great sales person. He sells welders and turns over millions
of dollars selling this equipment. A few years ago the company he worked for decided
that it would be better for him to train a lot of other sales people so they could
do even more.

It turned out that the company actually sold less with more sales people because the
positioning of my friend to train people was not in his ability. The company
actually went backwards so they repositioned him back into sales and re took the
market lead again. His position was sales not training.

2. Take action and hold on.

In an instant society we are all looking for the quick fix however we all appreciate
those who can maintain a solid position. I belong to an online MLM company and for 4
years nothing much happened however I knew that it was positioned for success. Today
it is growing in leaps and bounds. Unfortunately some of my friends left a little
too early and have missed out on the benefits of holding on. If you believe in what
you are doing do not give up.

3. You don't have to make millions to succeed online.

The concept of positioning is really all about strategies. Remember the old saying
how do you eat an elephant. A bite at a time.

Positioning is the same. You do it a bit at a time. First you learn then you apply.
Then you learn some more and then you apply what you have learnt. By being
consistent you will see it start to pay off.

Finally let me tell you one last story. While I was writing this article my son was
watching a documentary on the salmon in Canada that migrate up river to lay their
eggs. Some of the scenes where they would jump up waterfalls bashing against the
rocks to get to their final destination impressed me. The point is they would either
make it or die trying.

Now there are people who are going to make out that becoming successful online is
easy and both you and I know this is a lie. Just like the coach who told me I could
rest once I got into position. The fact is it will take hard work and there will be
casualties however if you are determined to succeed you will have a better chance of
success.

Some people will just find this all too hard so my advice to you is take the easy
road and don't start.
