Who is the Average Marketer on the Web? A friend of my Soren Jordansen, has just completed a survey from his lists. If you don't know Soren he's from Denmark and owns a great Traffic Exchange, Dragon Surf, as well as a WordPress Blog where I saw this survey. Google his name to get to his blog.com The average marketer, and/or website visitor is: Fairly new to the game (less than a years experience) Working a full time JOB and doing IM part time.
Looking to replace the JOB with a full time IM income. Not building a list, thus failing to make any money from IM.
How long have you been involved with internet marketing? 6 Months or Less = 22.30% 6 Months to 1 Year = 22.30% 1 to 2 Years = 22.30% 2 to 5 Years = 21.19% 5 Years or More = 12.27%
It shows us that internet marketing is still in its infancy and thousands of new people are joining our ranks each day… I have heard a lot people say that marketing to the “internet marketing niche” is hard, the market is saturated etc. I completely disagree. I think this is the easiest niche to master, especially if you are relatively new to the game… What do you think? Are you working full time online? Yes I’m full time and I make a “full time income” = 7.43% I’m full time online, but I don’t make a “full time income” = 34.57% No, I have a job so I’m part time online = 57.99%
What is your income goal - why are you in internet marketing? To make a bit of extra cash to help make ends meet = 10.78% I want to create an extra stream of income (but keep my job) = 7.43% I want to create an income that will let me quit my job = 54.28% I want to be filthy rich = 27.51%
What is your monthly income from internet marketing? Zero, zilch, nada, nothing = 50.19% Less than $500 = 38.66% $500 - $1,000 = 6.32% $1,001 - $2,500 = 2.60% $2,501 - $5,000 = 0.37% $5,001 - $10,000 = 0.37% Over $10,000 = 1.49%
Are you building your own email list? Yes = 58.36% No = 41.64%
Now we’re on to something. There is a definite correlation between building a list and making an income online, and it’s crystal clear when you look at this… How many subscribers do you have on your email list? I’m not building a list = 29.74% Less than 500 = 52.04% 500 - 1,000 = 4.83% 1,001 - 2,500 = 6.69% 2,501 - 5,000 = 1.86% 5,001 - 10,000 = 1.86% More than 10,000 = 2.97%
The number of people “not building a list” does not match the previous question. My guess is that a lot of people have tried building a list but gave up because they did not see immediate results, and thus they fall into the less than 500 subscribers category. Anyone got a comment on that, or a better guess? Other than that the numbers are fairly conclusive. I would bet my entire business that almost all the people not making money online fall into the 0-500 subscribers bracket. The “high” earners (or maybe I should just say earners) correspond well to the lists sizes - however it does look like a few people with larger lists are failing to monetize them to their full potential. Do you own/sell your own products or programs? No, I’m only promoting products as an affiliate = 65.43% No, but I plan to create a product of my own soon = 18.22% Yes, I sell my own products and services = 16.36%
