Week running an online business - https://youtu.be/LTO_u3Ll8UI

Weekly online business update: http://www.neilcurtis.me

Each week I cover the main things I am working on in my various online businesses. Recently I have been focusing a lot on my Amazon Japan Services businesses, where we have two interns working to find clients and to increase awareness of our brand.

We have two university interns working with us on this Japan business so we hope to make significant progress.

Alongside this I have been improving my BBQ affiliate website that I set up during the earn1000.co.uk course. I have put on a new professional WordPress theme as well as improving On-Page SEO.

Watch the short video for more details.

Online business updates - http://www.neilcurtis.me
Amazon Japan has taken up a lot of the week, working closely with my business partner and our university intern.

We send out our first batch of emails to companies and had a very good response with 2 potential customers who need to be followed up with.

I am also getting closer to finalised my 1st order with China for a new e-commerce venture. I need to make a sale of a sample and then get customer feedback before I commit.

*Selling on Amazon Japan Business and more...*
https://youtu.be/xuipYj8rjpI - This week I have been doing a lot of planning for my Amazon Japan business, which offers a service to UK companies to help them get set up and selling on Amazon Japan.

We have an intern working with us at the moment who's role is to identify UK companies who are good targets for selling on Amazon Japan. We then have some specially written emails to help convert some of these companies in to business for our company.

We have a tripwire service for a very low cost of £19.99. This will convert a cold lead into a hot lead to which we can offer additional service. All is explained in the video.

I cover some other aspects of my businesses, such as improving on page SEO on my affiliate websites, my [new] cycling related e-commerce business, and my current e-commerce business.

*Working with an SEO agency and Onsite SEO*
https://youtu.be/QsIXbRCD6b4

more at http://www.neilcurtis.me - This is a weekly update on running my online businesses. The main topics today are SEO.

I have hired an SEO agency called Blink to ramp up my search engine optimization for my e-commerce website. Up to now my website has been progressing slowly so I wanted to give it a bit of a kick up the butt.

I had a couple of issues with that the agency was proposing for my website, but these have either being sorted or I have decided to step back and let Blink take their action and see where it ends up.

I have also decided to clank up the onsite SEO of my affiliate websites. For example by Amazon affiliate website that I created as a case study during the http://www.earn1000.co.uk course.

May 2017 commissions and traffic was down on May 2016 so I am going to give my website a full audit. I will look at title meta tags, descriptions, H1, H2, H3 tags and keyword use through my content.

I will also look at URL structure, internal and external linking, content length and call to actions.

Watch the video for more details plus a look at my Amazon Associates account and my Google Analytics account.

*Weekly update running my online businesses - 9th May 2017*
https://youtu.be/ecgx8eV0As0 - Weekly update on progress and work with my online businesses.

Selling on Amazon is currently the largest project that I think about on a daily basis, however the brand I am growing as a whole is the most important thing.

To this end I am paying a professional online marketing company to push my search rankings for product specific keywords, and also a freelancer who is working on a larger resource for my website.

For our Japanese company who sell on Amazon Japan as well as help other companies get over to Japan to sell on Amazon we have had an intern working with us for 2 full days now and is compiling a list of companies to approach.

I run a portfolio of affiliate websites and I am starting new ones all the time. I currently have 5 domains registered ready for content. We have created some standard operating procedures for creating content for our websites and are posting for writers on Upwork to create the content. We will get 20 pieces of content for each of the websites with a maximum of £500 per website.

Running and Growing an Online Business - May 2017 Update

https://youtu.be/XY2ip8_lTuU

Each week I record an update video about how things are going in my online businesses. I currently have two limited companies and under these official companies I have several individual projects.

Get more at http://www.neilcurtis.me

Most of the last week was spent on my Amazon businesses. I call it an Amazon business rather than an ECommerce business because 99% of all sales happen on Amazon at the moment. But recent events of inactive listings and crazy competitor prices have made me step up my off Amazon activities.

I am now investing around £900 per month on growing my ECommerce website. £200 is spent on a freelancer who is working on a big resource on the website that will serve to attract organic visitors and also backlinks to increase my authority with Google. The freelancer is also managing my social media accounts.

£700 is being invested in a professional SEO agency to boost organic search traffic for my product related keywords. Combined I am hoping this will have a major positive effect on my ECommerce website.

Away from the Amazon ECommerce business we have taken on an Intern to work on the Amazon Japan / Export to Japan business, which combined with another Intern who will start in about a month we hope to really push this business forward.

Also in this video I cover some updates with one of my affiliate websites that I built during the http://www.earn1000.co.uk course.

How I run my online businesses in 2017
https://youtu.be/kG4tBaX-9As

http://www.neilcurtis.me - growing several online businesses with the goal of selling.

This video is part of a regular weekly update video where I cover the main things I have been doing with respect to my online businesses.

To summaries I have 4 main areas to my online business in 2017. One is a portfolio of affiliate websites that my wife now manages since she has joined my business.

Another is a cycling related website that started life as a small affiliate website but is evolving into a physical products business that I am to grow (with a business partner) into a fully fledged ECommerce business that we will eventually sell.

I also run another business with a different partner that deals with selling in Japan. We sell our own products on Amazon.co.jp (Amazon Japan) as well as offering a service based business to help other companies expend in to the Japanese marketplace.

Finally, my biggest project at the moment is my parenting brand ECommerce business. 99% of sales happens on Amazon at the moment with most in the UK but also some in Italy, Spain, France, and Germany. I am growing my own ECommerce website with initial goal of driving more sales through Amazon but eventually to sell direct.

In this update I cover how we are progressing with our 1st cycling related physical product as well as my current situation with my parenting ECommerce brand.

Working a lot on my Ecommerce brand, which at the moment it thriving on Amazon UK, Italy, Spain, France and Germany. I am working hard on my own audience and I am doing a lot on email marketing and content marketing.

The Amazon Japan area of my business is focused a lot at improving my existing listings, which is proving difficult because of the strict Amazon Japan rules about what terms can and cannot be used in the Titles and Descriptions.

With my affiliate websites they are being taken care of by my wife. She is updating all of my existing websites and taking a bigger picture approach.

This video recaps last weeks work on my online businesses and looks forward to the next priority tasks.

Most of last week involved my giveaway competition that aimed to grow my email newsletter subscribers. It was a success gathering 1930 new email signups costing around £0.15 each. Getting this kind of cost per email signup using any other paid source would be very hard to achieve.

I also did a lot of planning about how I could improve my current products that I sell on Amazon and what new products I should introduces. I am just about ready to push forward to this following a couple of Skype video chats with my Chinese supplier.

Finally I am starting to plan more seriously how I run my businesses. Starting with my Amazon Japan business myself and my business partner are structuring and documenting all aspects of the business and the day to day activities. Inspired by the book The E-Myth Revisited.

Weekly Update on running my online business
- https://youtu.be/xT8AY4FqgnI

Running my online business - Day in the life of an Entrepreneur - http://www.neilcurtis.me

So to start off I want to mention that over the last month my Amazon ECommerce business has paid me over £10,000, which is absolutely fantastic. This is spread over Amazon UK, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. More details in the video.

Most of the last week was spend organising the giveaway competition for my ECommerce brand. The goal was to attract as many email entrees as possible that I will then engage with via a well structured email marketing newsletter.

I hooked up with a few bloggers who posted my competition for me. I submitted it to competition websites and I shared on my own social channels and email list.

The entrees are coming think and fast. As I write this it is at 860 unique entrees :)

I have done a bit of Amazon Japan work. Best thing to do is watch the video for more details.

Day to day running an online business - 28th February 2017 - https://youtu.be/mqdds_ahgR0

These are going to be weekly rather than daily videos because I just do not have enough time to record and edit more videos. I love doing them but time is the master at the moment.

The past week I have spent most of my time planning the promotion of a giveaway that I am running that aims to boost email signups to my ecommerce business.

I have also completed a Google Adwords campaign for my Earn1000.co.uk affiliate website course as well as a few other things.

Watch the video to see what I am planning this coming week.

http://www.neilcurtis.me - 21st Feb 2017 a Day in the Life running an online business as a SOLO entrepreneur.

Today I'm focusing all my efforts on my email autoresponder for my ECommerce brand. I am in the process of getting some buzz around a competition I am launching and I am expecting (hoping) to gather lots of email addresses from my target audience.

Once I have these emails I need to do something good with them. So I need an automated introductory series of emails to engage and build trust. I cannot just ram my products down their throats, I need to have a long term strategy for my customer communications.
