Unleash The Power Of Perpetual Marketing

2006-05-15T20:25:00.000-07:00

I describe perpetual marketing as a large number of
people promoting one web site so they can all receive
the traffic generated by each other.
For example, you decide to create a free ebook that
you will give away to your web site visitors. You ask
a large number of e-zine owners to give away the
ebook in exchange for their ad in the ebook. You can
just ask them to link directly to your web site when
they promote the ebook. You, of course, will have
one of your own ads on that web page.

Let's say you get 8 out of 20 e-zine owners that agree
to giveaway the ebook. The 8 e-zines total subscriber
base is 75,000.
Now, you can ask more e-zine owners if they would
like to promote the ebook in exchange for an ad inside
the ebook. This time you can say, you already have 8
e-zines already promoting the ebook with a subscriber
base of 75,000.
The next group of e-zine owners you ask will be more
tempted to promote your ebook because there is a
greater chance they will receive a lot of traffic from
the deal. It's win/win situation!

Do you understand the power of perpetual marketing?
You could have 20 or 30 e-zines promoting your web
site at no-cost, very quickly! You could create a new,
free ebook every month and repeat the process.
This isn't the only way to use perpetual marketing.
You don't just have to contact e-zine publishers you
could do the same with web site owners. You could
use a total monthly visitor total as motivation.
It doesn't have to be just an ebook either. It could be
a contest you're holding on your web site. You could
place the other web site's ads on the contest page in
exchange for them promoting the contest.

These are only a few ways to use perpetual marketing.
You could use your own imagination to create new
ways to use perpetual marketing that will increase your
traffic and sales.

How To Find The Best Products On The Internet

2005-10-03T18:49:00.000-07:00

If you've ever embarked on a shopping
expedition on the Internet, you know it's
easy to get lost in a sea of look-alike products
and copycat offers. The Internet offers
everything you could ever want. In fact, it offers
about 50 different versions of everything you
want. The problem is, not you or anyone else
on the planet has time to sort through all the
offers for the best one.

That is the beauty of ClickBank storefront
websites. ClickBank offers over 11,400 of the
Internet's best, most in-demand electronically
deliverable products. But don't be overwhelmed
by the sheer number of products and
opportunities ClickBank offers. Everything is
appropriately categorized, making it easy to find
the products and opportunities you want.

But not all ClickBank storefronts are created equal.
These storefronts are run by affiliates, and most
of their parent companies only allow them to sell
about 20% of the products and services
Clickbank offers.

If you want to find the most extensive selection
of products, visit a site like :
1stPromotion.com .

1st Promotion is the only ClickBank Storefront
to offer the full line of ClickBank Affiliate Marketplace
products, so if you want access to the best
selection, that is the place to visit. With the
vastness of the Internet expanding every
minute of every day, 1st Promotion strives
to continuously make shopping at their
ClickBank Storefronts as enjoyable as possible.
Their marketplace includes an extensive
selection of shopping categories, such as
Business-to-Business, Computer and Internet,
Fun and Entertainment, Health and Fitness,
Home and Family, Marketing and Advertising,
Money and Employment, Society and Culture,
and Sports and Recreation. Also, if you are
interested in owning your own Internet business,
becoming a 1st Promotion affiliate offers top
commissions on over 11,400 ClickBank products,
and more benefits than all the other ClickBank
Storefronts combined.

1stPromotion has also just announced the
industry's first search box plug-in which duplicates
the abilities of the search box located on the
Pro Storefront, and allows webmasters to very
simply integrate this capability right into their
other existing web sites. This unleashes virtually
undiscovered streams of revenue for many of
1stPromotion's members. Either way, next time
you decide to do a little Internet shopping,
use a 1st Promotion ClickBank site and you'll
findexactly what you're looking for in no time.

Want to own your own ClickBank Storefront and
earn commissions of over 11,400 of the Internet's

It makes me sick.....Hurricane Katrina Info

2005-09-01T16:12:00.000-07:00

I normally don't write about things like this, but sometimes
you have to speak up about things that are just plain wrong!

I have been watching the news about Hurricane Katrina as I am sure
you have been too. My heart goes out to these people and I pray
they get the assitance they need as fast as humanly possible.

What makes me sick are the emails I have been receiving over
the past few days from people "claiming" to help. Maybe they
are sincere maybe not. I don't know.

--------------------------------------------------------
Case #1 - A Scumbag Marketer
--------------------------------------------------------
One marketer sent out information about how you can help. I
clicked on the link because I want to help out as much as I
possibly can.

Here's what made me sick to my stomach...

He had the nerve to actually require you to enter your name
and email address into an optin box in order to get the info!!!

What a marketing SCUMBAG! I normally don't talk like this, but
this one really got on my nerves. Why not just give the info?

Is this guy really that bad off that he has to profit
from these poor people? That's about as low as it gets!!!

--------------------------------------------------------
Case #2 - Buy My Crap and I'll Donate (I don't think so)
--------------------------------------------------------
I am certainly not going to buy anyone's stuff and HOPE that my
money goes to these people. Think about it, it first has to go
to this person and then they have to take out their supposed
costs and then, MAYBE, they'll forward they money on to a worthy
charity.

I DON'T THINK SO!!!

What is this person thinking? Hmmmm... if I use this DISASTER
which has left thousand of people HOMELESS... I can get my
product into the hands of more people... YOU IDIOT!

Again... another person who seems to be high on crack!

If you want to by a product, then buy a product. If you want
to donate, then donate directly to the source. PERIOD!

You don't have to buy a product in order to donate your
money to worthy charity or organization. Just do it.

Let me make my stance PERFECTLY CLEAR!

YOU DON'T PROFIT FROM OTHER PEOPLE'S MISFORTUNES!

These people are devastated, they lost their jobs, their homes,
some lost their loved one's lives, or maybe even their own life
due this major catastrophe...

How dare these people try to profit from this distaster!

I urge you to NOT support these SCUMBAGS!

--------------------------------------------------------
If You Want To Help The Hurricane Efforts
--------------------------------------------------------

Here's two links to legitimate organizations
to donate your
money to if you want to help.

FEMA - http://www.fema.gov
Red Cross - http://www.redcross.org

Feel free to pass this message on to someone else.

Take my name off of it... I don't care. I just want to make
sure your kindness goes in the right direction and you are not
putting faith in people who are trying to profit from this.

Help someone and donate what you can today.

List peoples web sites in the directory that will

10 Killer Ways To Multiply Your Sales

2005-06-05T07:19:00.000-07:00

1. When you make your first sale, follow-up with the
customer. You could follow-up with a "thank you"
email and include an advertisement for other products
you sell. You could follow-up every few months.

2. You could upsell to your customers. When they're
at your order page, tell them about a few extra related
products you have for sale. They could just add it to
their original order.

3. Tell your customers if they refer four customers to
your web site, they will receive a full rebate of their
purchase price. This will turn one sale into three sales.

4. When you sell a product, give your customers the
option of joining an affiliate program so they can make
commissions selling your product. This will multiply
the sale you just made.

5. Sell the reprint/reproduction rights to your products.
You could include an ad on or with the product for
other products you sell. You could make sales for the
reproduction rights and sales on the back end product.

6. You could cross promote your product with other
businesses' products in a package deal. You can
include an ad or flyer for other products you sell and
have other businesses selling for you.

7. When you ship out or deliver your product, include
a coupon for other related products you sell in the
package. This will attract them to buy more products
from you.

8. Send your customers a catalog of add-on products
for the original product they purchased. This could be
upgrades, special services, attachments, etc. If they
enjoy your product they will buy the extra add-ons.

9. Sell gift certificates for your products. You'll make
sales from the purchase of the gift certificate, when
the recipient cashes it in. They could also buy other
items from your web site.

10. Send your customers free products with their
product package. The freebies should have your ad
printed on them. It could be bumper stickers, ball
caps, t-shirts etc. This will allow other people to see
your ad and order.

How to Avoid the "Richard Harris Syndrome"

2005-03-27T02:43:00.000-08:00

My friend Michael Hopkins had some really good tips
in his monthly newsletter this month. Here's one of them.
If you happen to visit his newsletter make sure you check
out his views on Mike Chens "Secret Weapon". I think he
hit the nail right on the head.

========================================
How to Avoid
the "Richard Harris Syndrome"
by Michael Hopkins

It's almost inevitable when working on your online
business that distractions will keep coming at
you from all sides.

How often have you started a specific task only to find
yourself following some link that leads to another
link and then another..?

Before you know it, you've spent two hours surfing
around and the task you set out to complete
hasn't advanced at all.

I like to call this the "Richard Harris Syndrome"
after the celebrated Irish actor.

Harris was a party animal in the extreme.
His wife once explained that he would often pop out
to the corner shop to pick up a packet of cigarettes
only to disappear for 3 weeks on a massive "bender".

You can see the parallel here...

So, how do you avoid going off on those
e-business benders? How do you keep your focus on
the task in hand and keep on top of the total
information overload that we all encounter daily?

Here are a few tips that will help you with that...

-> Set short, medium and long term goals for
your business. The long term goals will help you
determine where you want your business to be in,
for example, one years time. Set short and medium
term goals for today, tomorrow, this week and this
month that will help you reach your long term goals.
Consider creating a timetable of activities for the
week and then stick to the timetable. The timetable
might contain things like 'deal with email',
'develop a JV', 'study a marketing technique',
'work on bringing in traffic'. Allow a reasonable
length of time for each task and, once the time has
elapsed, move on.
It's important to be realistic when determining
how long any given task will take. Read this article
for some good tips on this.

-> Create a 'To Do' file that lists the specific
things you need to get done in order to achieve
the goals you've set above. This can be a simple
text list.
Similarly, create a 'to read' folder containing
those ebooks you haven't got around to studying.
You might consider putting Quick Launch buttons
to these files and folders (as well as those programs
you use all the time) on your Windows Launch Bar.
For details on how to do this, see here.

-> Create a 'To look at' folder in your
Favorites/Bookmarks. By creating a folder like this,
you'll avoid spending all that time browsing around
to sites you don't need to see right now while, at
the same time, keeping them somewhere convenient
for you to study later. (Once you've studied them,
don't forget to delete them from the list).

-> If you're working on something and making little
or no progress, then do something else for a while
or take a break. Keep it in the back of your mind
and note down ideas that may occur in the meantime.

-> Use your Favorites/Bookmarks to organize all the
sites you access regularly for your business:
membership site login pages, affiliate
program login pages,
web hosting admins, download pages, useful sites,
and so on.

-> Don't waste days (weeks?) trying to do technical
stuff that's beyond your ability. If you need to,
for example, install a script or add some advanced
functionality to your website, just run a project
on one of the many freelance sites
(like Scriptlance.com). In many cases you'll
get it done within the hour for
a few dollars.

-> Keep copies of your answers to those
questions you receive often from your
visitors/customers. Rather than typing out
the full reply each time, just copy/paste
the answer. For quick access, I keep my
ready-to-go answers in my 'Drafts' folder
in Outlook Express.
Also, aim to reduce your email workload
by adding FAQs to your website.
Encourage people to visit the FAQ
before contacting you.

-> Use rules to organize your incoming email.
Have your favorite newsletters go to one folder,
your customer questions to another, an so on. This
will help you be more efficient in dealing with your
email and will help eliminate inbox clutter. Learn
about setting up rules in Outlook Express here.
Also, set a time (or times) to check your email
each day. Don't keep checking it every ten minutes
as this will just distract you from the tasks on hand.

-> Avoid procrastination like it's your worst enemy.
If you have a tendency to put things off rather than
tackle them right now, you may find this article helpful.

Okay, those are just a few ideas that you may find
useful in helping you deal with e-business overload.
The important thing now is to put at least some
of them into action today.

All the best.

Are You A Watcher Or A Reader?

2005-03-20T22:54:00.000-08:00

If you're like me , I've found that I learn
new things much easier by watching (a video)
than by reading. Well, in my search for new videos
on blogging techniques I found some really great videos
over at Jim Edward's
(TurnWordsIntoTraffic.com) Blog
that got me up to speed on several things.
In the videos Jim is interviewing Thomas Pierce

Blog thing under control. Here is the link, see for yourself.

Finding Your Focus

2005-03-20T22:01:00.000-08:00

One of the first things you need to do when you decide to create a new online business, whether an Ebook Store or something else, is to know what it's all about. You need to focus on some or all of the following questions in addition to any others you may have.

1. What is my financial budget?

2. What am I going to sell?

3. What am I trying to accomplish with my business or your mission statement?

4. How will I interact with my customers and vice-versa?

5. What are my methods of product delivery?

6. How will I accept payment?

7. Will I have any employees or am I running this business solo?

8. How much time can I realistically spend on my business a day, week, month?

9. Will I sell my products only from my website or from other online shops as well, online only, online and offline, offline only?

These are just a few. You probably have others not listed here. Based on your answers to the FIRST 6 questions in the list above or your own variation of something similar, those answers will effect the steps that follow. Because if you are selling digital products you don't want a website that screams sewing supplies!! And if your delivering your products digitally, you certainly don't want to charge shipping and handling charges!This is why KNOWING what you're business is about beforehand is so important to building it.
