All along in my lecture on How to Make Millions in Web Development, I've been emphasizing the indispensability of marketing.
Having a skill or a business is one thing, knowing how to make large number of people buy from you or pay for your service is another.
If you're an expert in a particular field but you don't market your business or skill in any way, your subordinates will make more money than you if they promote their skill.
Business or skill without marketing equals POVERTY.
As a web development student, prospective student or professional, consider the following strategies to hit millions in web development.
Budget money for marketing
As a web development student or someone who is going to go into web development in the future, don't plan to make the same mistake over 90% of people are making.
Over 90% of people who learn skill or go into business hardly had plans or budget money for consistent marketing. Don't make that mistake.
If you're a web development student or prospective student, while you're saving money for acquiring the skill, also save money for marketing the skill.
If you're already a professional web developer, reserve a good percentage of your profit for consistent marketing.
The money budgeted for marketing should be used for learning marketing strategies and actual promotion.
Pay people to teach you how to promote your products or services both online and offline. Practice consistently and spend good money in consistent promotion.
Don't stop marketing
If you stop marketing, you start losing money. Remember that you have competitors and many of them are marketing consistently.
Even Coca Cola, in spite of its popularity, is still being promoted with millions of dollars. They understand that if they stop promoting, their business will start declining, as they don't have monopoly right in the business.
So, always set aside good percentage of your profits for consistent marketing.
Build list of prospects consistently
One of the best marketing strategies is list building. List building is all about connecting with so many people who are interested in your products or services.
Social media has made it so easy to connect with many people. You can connect with prospects on WhatsApp by making them save your contact while you save theirs so that they can view your WhatsApp status and receive your WhatsApp broadcast.
You can also create groups on WhatsApp, Facebook and other social media platforms and get people into it.
WhatsApp is my favourite platform for list building. I build list on email and my website too.
Just spend money to learn how to build lists of prospects in different social media platforms. After learning the strategies, you can sit back and choose your favourite platform(s).
After which, you must spend good morning in social media ad to get as many prospects as possible to your favourite platform(s).
When you spend money to build list of prospects, these prospects become your customers and potential customers for life. You will be spending little or no money to market to them all your life.
If you failed to build list of prospects, you will continue to spend huge amount of money any time you want to advertise your product or service.
Give value for free to build trust
Someone who received my Web Design eBook and tutorial videos for free was so surprised. He wondered how I could give such value for free.
He asked me, why are you giving all these valuable tutorials and eBooks for free?
According to him, he has never received anything as valuable as that for free. So, he wondered!
Listen, after building your list or while building your list, you must make effort to make your prospects trust you enough to buy from you.
One of the best ways to make people trust you on social media is by giving them something very valuable for free.
You can write an eBook and give them for free, you can teach them for free just like I'm doing now.
You can answer their questions and mentor them for free for some time. Just find out something that will truly help them so much and give it to them for free.
As they're consuming your free gifts, their trust for you and your product will naturally grow.
If you market to them subsequently, some of them will consider buying from you.
Don't stop posting on social media, be consistent
Sometimes, posting every day on social media can be very tiring but you must be disciplined enough to do so if you're serious about building trust.
You don't just have to post anything that comes from your mind, you must ensure that your contents are valuable. It can be entertaining, educative or informative.
Just make sure that you're posting values.
Don't post your business advert every day. If you do, your prospects will get tired of it.
Many people have chatted me up appreciating my email and whatsapp post. They're truly learning and I'm glad they're.
Celebrate your successes publicly
Whenever you make a breakthrough, celebrate publicly with your prospects. Tell them your success story. Show them how they can also make success.
If you develop a fantastic website, showcase it to them. If you make millions, showcase it but do so carefully and intelligently with security in mind.
If you're too private, you may die poor. You must learn to live a public life to activate success that follow publicity.
Learn to celebrate yourself for others to celebrate you.
Use positive testimonials to build trust
Still on building trust, if someone chats you and appreciates your expertise, screenshot it and showcase it.
Build a testimonial system in your website and collect reviews from your customers and prospects.
Showcase their reviews to build trust. The reviews can come in form of screenshots, videos or graphic design.
So many of my students who paid for my ICT courses including web development have chatted me and were thanking me for so much value they were getting from the tutorials.

Use Webinar
Learn how to make a presentation before a camera. Learn how to use webinar. Webinar means web seminar, that is seminar that is conducted on the web.
Listen, people trust you more quickly when they see you speak live.
You can start by making videos with your phone. When your confidence grows, go ahead and go live.
Exploit affiliate marketing system
One mistake I see people make is trying to do everything about marketing their business all by themselves.
Don't do everything all alone. You don't have all the talents. Give other people opportunity to promote your skill and be honest and generous enough to pay them well.
I have an affiliate marketing system. People who are promoting my products and services are called Heroic Ambassadors and Fans. They earn 20% and 10% respectively from my academy and services.
I want to work with everybody, I want everybody to earn from me. You can do the same.

You must learn copywriting, you must!
I cannot overemphasize the importance of copywriting in social media marketing. If you have no knowledge of copywriting, your presentation or social media posts will be less attractive.
You must learn how to write hypnotically. You must learn how to hypnotize your audience with your pen. It is a must if you must make huge exploits on social media.
Sometime ago, I gave some people who performed some tasks for me, my copywriting eBook and it was very helpful to many of them.
Recently, I decided to send the copywriting ebook to you via email. Hope you've gotten yours? Hope it was very useful?
If you've not gotten it, check through your email, you can subscribe to my email lectures by clicking here Or continue to watch my whatsapp status, I might share it in my whatsapp status soon for free.
