KinetiX launches VillagesWV.com
KinetiX and Barbour County CDC are developing a state-wide website to allow small and micro business people to sell their products and services online with lots of hand-holding and technical help. "It is our goal to make the world markets assessable to West Virginia entrepreneurs without the sometimes daunting task of taking on the world solo," says Norvill Clark, Executive Director of KinetiX. An example of the power of global niche marketing is the work KinetiX is doing with a group of young auto enthusiasts in Beckley. We are helping a car club develop their online presence. In just five months, members of this organization have been able to find, refurbish and sell nine older vehicles, primarily Chevrolet automobiles. Sales have been to customers in surrounding states; with inquiries even coming from Pacific rim countries. "This group is benefiting directly from the power of niche marketing. We anticipate similar results for VillagesWV.com participants."
Gwen Hagaman, KinetiX, Inc. President, succinctly states the goals of this Project "First, we want to get small and micro-businesses selling their products and services online. Secondly, we want these entrepreneurs to learn how eCommerce works by experiencing the process firsthand and lastly, we want these businesses to expand their use of the Internet in the sales process."
Another project we are excited about involves a couple of game enthusiasts; we are assisting them in locating other gamers who may need their database services. "These two young men have the technical expertise and computer equipment to support a couple of online games that are in need of specialized support. We have already reached two organizations showing interest in the services these gentlemen can provide. Summarizing KinetiX's expectations of this Project, Norvill Clark states, "we fully expect that by July 2009, these two entrepreneurs will be providing database, server and other support services to gamers throughout the world; at a substantial profit."
"There are no guarantees that your product or service will be successful through the use of Internet marketing", states Norvill Clark, "but if your organization wants to substantially increase the odds for success and if you want to dramatically increase your market reach and potential we encourage you to participate in the monthly courses that we will be providing throughout the state over the next several months."
In these monthly training sessions we will identify and provide the tools, techniques and strategies used to successfully develop a niche Internet market.
If you are concerned that you cannot afford to expand your marketing reach by use of the Internet-don't be! Internet sales is oftentimes the most cost effective way to reach your customers and most of the techniques we provide will cost you nothing but your own time and effort! These are the same tools that are proving successful for many small businesses throughout Appalachia.

Marketing Tip for the Month of August
Over the past seven years we've had countless conversations with people who dream of starting their own online business. But so many of them are afraid to begin; they are too worried they don't have enough money to get their business off the ground.
Understanding this dilemma, Derek Gehl, founder and CEO of IMC, an online marketing specialist, makes some very interesting points concerning this issue. "The truth is, you don't need a huge advertising budget to be successful on the Internet. You can easily start and begin earning serious income within a matter of months, with a budget of just a few hundred dollars or less-if you are prepared to do a lot of work yourself."
He recommends that you build your business on your own passions and interests. "Many people are successful in Internet sells because they are doing something they love... You must have a passion for the product or service you are providing because the hours can be long in the world of online sales."
Therefore, let your passion lead you to a lucrative market!Once you have identified the product or service that you would like to market, let KinetiX's trained professionals introduce you to the techniques that will increase your chances of being successful!
The other advantage of starting with something you are passionate about is that you will already be familiar with the niche market. You will understand the customer's needs and wants and the places where they meet and share ideas online. You will even understand their jargon. By starting with your hobbies and interests, you're giving yourself a huge head start. It's a topic you know, so you've got the expertise, experience, and passionate enthusiasm needed to succeed.
Then all you have to do is put yourself in a position for these perfect potential customers to find your product or service and create the interactive web presence that will enable you to be incredibly successful...doing something you love!
