Here at Subrideo we like to support our students in building their business and getting their message out to their chosen audience. One of the ways we do this is to let them learn from the mistakes we have already made when building our business. One area that a lot of mistakes are made is in the area of marketing. It is one of the most important pieces in setting up your business yet one of the most misunderstood. Lets face it, you can be the best therapist in the world but if no-one knows about you it will be difficult to make a living out of it. The whole area of marketing has become more interesting with the advent of the internet and what are called web 2.0 on-line applications like Twitter and Google Reader. While it is more interesting and easier to get set up using these tools it can be an absolute minefield for those of us who are not totally familiar with these technologies and struggle to see how they all fit together.

This is why it gives me great pleasure when I find a group of people on the internet who are trying to fill this gap and teach people how to market themselves effectively and all for free. What is the Thirty Day Challenge? It is all about selling your first $10 online regardless of what your market is. The following is from their website:

In a nutshell... The Thirty Day Challenge is about making your first $10 online. For a full 30 days we are going to be showing you exactly how to start your own Internet business and generate your first income online without spending a dime.

That's right, this is going to cost zip, diddly, nothing, nada, ziltch. The entire training program is free, and you won't have to spend a thing to get your business started and begin making money. No credit card required.

They will teach you how to use tools such as:

1. Twitter
2. Google Reader
3. Flock
4. Stumble Upon
5. ..... and a lot lot more

Which are all amazing tools to get your message out there and raise your online profile. I highly recommend signing up and checking this out as quickly as you can as it starts on the 1st August and there are a few videos to go through before then to make sure you have all the tools set up to start the challenge.

Apparently, they ran the same challenge last year and there are reports of some of the people who took part having sold well over a million between now and then. I don't know whether that is true or just effective marketing but we could all do with a little of that I think

Sign up and this time next year we could all be millionaires.
