You can be a good listener when you're into online marketing by way of studying people's wants and needs.

What do they need?
You can try assessing what people's everyday necessities are by way of observing and talking with them about the products they prefer buying and why they buy it. If it's because of the quality or the savings they get, present to them a TripleClicks product that may address their preferences to make them shift their choices.

What do they want?
You can do a personal survey about people's indulgences: what they shop online and why they shop online. We have an array of products that will satiate everyone's taste: from electronics to gadgets and even romance (dating site). Try to figure out their likings and find a TC product that matches their standards.

Being a good listener in online marketing does not only involve your association with your customers but also by strengthening your knowledge in promoting your products and the company (marketing, advertising, and networking). Just by following tips, programs, and strategies in mastering your craft will make you a good listener.

Technically, you are correct as there is no sound produced to be able to listen. As “most of the communication” is online, hence in written form, you can only be a good communicator in the perspective.

Having mentioned above “most of the communication” as there are chance that you are either communicating with some of your team members on skype or through telecom if they are from your own country. Here the aspect of listening would be of prime importance and you have to apply all basics to be a good listener.

Although we are in the process of online marketing or business promotions where direct contact with people may not exist but the possibility can not be eliminated completely. Therefore, having the listening skill would be of added advantage.

Further, when having written communication you can apply all the basics of good listener in being a good reader. Read the content of the message thoroughly, be patient before replying and understanding the inference of the message received. Sometimes, you have to read between the lines and understand the message in that perspective to be able to reply.

I hope communicating with our team on various issues of theirs would make us realize on day to day basis that we apply the basics of listening more often than not.

Hence online business does not eliminate the importance of listening skills rather asks you of being more receptive.

Hi Alma
To be a good listener is 1. To get the attention of your audience.
2. To connect with your audience.
3. To know what they want and how to solve it.
4. To shut down what you have to say first so as to be able to know the actual need of your audience. You don't assume.
5. To understand that online marketing is a web traffiking market, that deals with an international audience and so as a result, you must know how to build trust and mutual relationship first with your audience.
Remember that people first join you before they join your business. This is your how to connect first with your audience.
6. To build good character as a person. A good listener is a person who is affectionate, compassionate, ability to bear other people's weaknesses and to help them. A good listener has a hearing heart and a hearing ear.
7. To learn not to interrupt your prospect while talking even when you know the end of the talk.
8. Not to be hasty in your approach. This is where most people fail. You don't.
9. To learn to talk less and listen more.
10. To be indepth and knowledgeable. How does this relate to you as a good listener? A listener is someone who is ready to share with a problem and associate with it. If you are not knowledgeable, how would you know where your audience is coming from and where he is going?
A good listener doesn't share in the problem by listening alone but by being able to solve the problem.
11. To have focus. An undivided attention. Most people are not where the conversation is, their heart is somewhere else.
To be a good listener, your heart must always be in the conversation and i mean, Always. That is the acid test of a good listener, the ability to listen with your heart.
All the best.

If you're TRULY engaged in online marketing, you need to listen to those around you. Otherwise, you're not truly engaged. Listening is at the heart of any marketing effort, online or offline, because you have to elicit the values of your target audience. If you do not know their values, you will fail at recruiting successfully. You might find the occasional customer that way, certainly, but by comparison, it will be as if by accident.

Imagine yourself in the role of a stranger who has never heard of TripleClicks, talking to me. The first thing I'm going to do is ask you about yourself: What do you do for a living? How do you have fun? What is it you would like to do? These questions will tell me exactly what aspects of TripleClicks will interest you the most and how to best engage you with them. It's the same with groups of people--you listen to them and find out their common value, and you advertise and promote to them based on that common value.

You cannot find that common value without listening.

Being a good listening means that you first have to understand what your PSA/CSA is asking of you. We have to make time for our team if we choose to have one. Everyone comes to SFI with questions and yes most of the information sought is right there in black and white. Yet, remember when you joined? You didn't read all the details either and your mind raced with anticipation of a big pay day. Or maybe you are just the thorough analytical type and read everything. Not everyone does.

Have some empathy and set the expectation with your team as to when you will be getting back with them about questions. No, we can't spend all day answering questions but if it means that your PSAs and CSAs are learning and following your recommendations then isn't it worth your time to help them gain more success so you can attain better success? Invest in others and it will make you richer beyond your wildest expectations.

Great leaders are great communicators but most of all they have to be a great listener .
Everyone love to talk , in fact most have a tendency of thinking what to answer while
Someone talking to them instead of listening.

So Listening and not interrupting when someone talk is the greatest gift of all. I personally
Am a great listener, I can listen for hours if someone want to talk to me.
Sometimes I take notes of some Important things not to forget to talk about it or to answer
If that comes in a form of question. Some people want you just to listen to
Them what they wanted to say not necessarily wanted advice or answer from
you . They Just want to let it out to feel better, and you have to have that sense
of Knowledge to know the difference , I learn that over the years of practice.

Practice, practice and more practice. We are not born with it. We are born
To talk, to talk anything don’t need that much of a practice unless we wanted to
Be a public speaker, teacher, and some other required position.

But to be listener, a great listener you have to practice. The way it has been
Said, Be slow to speak but Fast and patient to listen.

Especially when you are involving in this kind of business witch make you
Involve with different cultural back ground people you have to be able to
Communicate and understand their situation by listening patiently and calmly ,
all this come By practice . Try to listen some motivational recordings, or your
choice of what you wanted to listen not music though , only speaking words
for 10 to 15 minutes without interruption or when some one talking to you
just listen Without interrupt the person even if you get tempted to jump in.

Just practice, you will be a great listener.

The question"How to be a good listener engaged in Online Marketing" is very interesting.

Listening is a part of the communication. We need to be effective in our communication endeavors if we are to succeed in Marketing. The adjective added here is Online Marketing. we have to construe that written communication needs to be answered too. Now we have to see the communication of listening in Internet Marketing. To say about listening we have to appreciate the facts about communications.

Basically communication is two types: Written and Oral communications.
Written communications comprise of writing and expressing our views,opinions while sending reports, or trying to convince others to turn to our view point. Because the fact of 'Online' is added.
While writing communications (INTERNET/Face Book,Twitter etc): We need to be direct, simple, precise and without any interlocutions. Then the party on other side need not have to strain to respond to that. Simple because without any complicated, ambiguous verbiage. Direct in the sense what you want to say/ask/solicit from the other party straight away without going in to other details.The briefer the write-up the better it is for the communicator & the communicated. The longer the message, the more the communicator will be 'committing'. However, the most important aspect of the written communications is salutation, and courtesy. We have to 'place ourselves in the shoes of the other'. In other words what do I expect to be treated as, the same treatment I have to extend to the communicated. After all courtesy begets courtesy. Give respect and be respected. Let, Business be apart we are first Human beings and at all costs that 'human touch' needs to be maintained. With these basic precautions, when a communication is sent, we will get a reply 'in the same coin'. One more thing is we need not be assertive to convey our view point. If it has really worth, that automatically becomes assertive of itself. That does not either imply that we need to be sloppy or convincing. It needs to be matter-of-fact expression...

Coming to the Oral Communications: It has again an expressive part of it--talk/voice/expression and the method and manner of communicating it--popularly called Body Language. It may not be believable but out of our spoken language, the body language comprises of 83% and spoken word 17%. I am bringing out this point to emphasize that we need to be highly careful while speaking, talking or expressing our views. We may be intending to say one, but if our body language expresses something else, I think we have not succeeded in our mission of communication. The way we see, sit or stand lean against a wall combined with our expression in the eyes, demeanor all these weigh a lot while communicating.

About hearing and/or listening: For most of the commoners these two words mean one & the same. But etymologically and literally there is a lot of difference. Hearing is only hearing. In this way we need not put our heart & soul in to it. Simply the other person is saying something and we are hearing. But the person opposite who is conveying his/her ideas,views,or opinions will feel easily let down, belittled though not put to shame! Therefore in Online(including offline) Marketing whenever we are saying things we expect the other to pay attention. That is what is required of us while hearing..listening. To give an idea to the other that we are listening, slightly bend forwards, look straight in to the eyes of the other with on & oft expressions like..O.K, so then?, what happened next etc., so that the conversation is not understood by either party and onlookers that it is a dialogue and not monologue. IF SPEAKING CONVINCINGLY MAKING THE AUDIENCE SPELL BOUND IS AN ART, THEN LISTENING IS MUCH MORE THAN THAT, as it requires a lot of attention, concentration and focus. For writing we can think, jot down points and then write. But for speaking/listening we need to be adept at subject matter, as we have to say/react to things extempore!! I think this will help

Firstly, try being a good listener without a computer in front of you for a month then go for six months then a year. If you can do that offline you can do it online too. It would be good to practice it for both ways at the same time. It takes practice to make it perfect. Sometimes, you can catch persons trying to commit suicide before they act upon it. Same way you can catch someone trying to commit online marketing suicide. I guess just like offline there is active listening and passive listening. Passive listening is having the tv on and trying to listen to someone speak. Active listening is making sure your ears are pricked to hear everything someone is saying, with no distractions then repeating what they say just to make sure that you heard accurately what the person is saying including what they didn't say. I will repeat myself it takes practice. So start today!
