The ins and outs of Giveaway Sites...

I see Cody Moya of "Resell Rights Giveaway" is launching some new sites, including an Audio Giveaway site, a Advertising Giveaway, and more. The principle remains the same - set way back in time with the first "12 Days Of Christmas" giveaway, and maybe even before that. Publishers promote the site, to earn points and drive their own particular "giveaway" to the top of the ladder. That way, they can gain some more subscribers. They may also gain sales of back-end products, perhaps using the "One Time Offer" (right after subscribing) technique. The subscriber gets a free product. People love free stuff, but they do not value it. That's the inherent problem. People tend to simply hoard all these great products on their hard drive and rarely, if ever, actually read or use any of it. In fact, they probably have a lot more than they can handle. The operator of the giveaway website gets a LOT of traffic. You can do wonders with this kind of targeted traffic, and you also gain a list of subscribers and a list of marketers. The only problem with all this is that it devalues every other marketing product for sale on the web. I mean, would you go out and buy a product if it's on a giveaway website? The key is to be selective. Guard your rights jealously. If you have a product, give away samples or cut-down versions. Do not offer full Resale Rights to your main product - UNLESS it's focus is to drive traffic/gain subscribers/make back-end sales. In that case, you want other people to sell it or give it away. This is how marketers like Ewen Chia say it should be done, in "Unlock Your Empire". They call it a funnel, from a low-priced product or giveaway to a full-priced back-end sale. It's a very good tactic. In the long term, you make more money by building trust and freely providing good content than you do by simply going for a one time sale. If you're not creating, but learning from these products do not bother downloading everything. Choose one or two products you feel you'd benefit from, and read them. Really read them. If you're re-selling you just need to use the usual methods. Use a limited time limit, a raising price, or extra bonuses. Or even just limit the amount to be sold. Add extras, to make your offer irresistable. And don't forget, even though you may have downloaded the product for free the buyer doesn't neccessarily know this. They may not be aware of the giveaway site... Here's some current places for great freebies: 1. Instant Marketing Library Standard 2. MembersSite.net (join link) 3. Resell Rights Giveaway 4. SureFire Wealth (free membership) 5. The Warrior Forum (there's an e-book giveaway section, search Google for it)

Resell Rights Giveaway

Right, folks, you know how these work by now :-) Think 117 Gifts, or the various christmas giveaways (12 Days Of...) or even the Autumn one. Basically, some marketers give away lots of stuff in exchange for your e-mail. There's no catch. You don't even have to stay subscribed, if you don't want to. But for goodness sake, use a spare e-mail address so your primary account isn't overrun! I'm not offering anything in this sale (after all, you have my entire members site to delve into...) but I do like this one. Mainly because there's some cool software included that you won't see on the usual "giveaway" sites. Go to http://www.resellrightsgiveaway.com to join. And, apparently, it ends in a day or two!

"UYE" Bonus Removed Soon

The bonus package at "Unlock Your Empire" is actually a top speed-reading/power-thinking course that can really train your brain to assimilate data, fast. An essential technique for todays power marketers! It's worth over $67 and included only for another 24 hours or so. I already think everyone involved in marketing should hear "Crazy" Marlon Sanders words of wisdom - so this bonus is just the icing on the cake! ==> http://www.netpreneurnow.com/unlockyourempire I also think anyone who keeps a scratch file of great marketing material should take a look at that site. It's converting at almost 10% for some peoples lists, and it's an amazing example of a great offer -- top product, attractive site, informative and entertaining.

Unlock Your Empire

Wow! This came my way yesterday and I'm VERY impressed. It's called Unlock Your Empire and it's from Ewen Chia, Jo Han Mok and Marlon Sanders. The names alone should convince you to check this out... Marlon - the man behind the popularity of eBooks and Mini Sites (as well as being the "Guru's Guru"), and Ewen and Jo Han are the geniuses from Singapore responsible for a string of products and websites lately. This new product is the result of a secret no-holds barred conversation between the three. And believe me, it's gold dust! There are hours of audios with full transcripts available in this package. You will learn the secrets to unlocking YOUR personal potential - discovering the REAL information about starting and maintaining a profitable internet business. You will probably find this the most eye-opening discussion you'll ever have the opportunity to listen in on. And once you get it, please don't leave it on your hard drive. Absorb it. Learn from it. I guarantee your mind will feverishly be soaking up all the hot tips, advice and straight-forward information thrown at you. To be frank I'm surprised these three reveal all that they do! Anyone can afford this package. And once you purchase, you'll be granted a Dealership to resell - making over 90% commissions per sale! You'll get an attractive website and promotional materials to help you. Just check out the site below... Unlock Your Empire

Strangest Spam Report

I guess cries about spam are reaching new levels of absurdity. Today I received a warning about a spam-report... from an article responder! This is just a autoresponder setup to send an article, when a user requests one. It does not (can not) send mass mailings of any kind, only respond to an e-mail. Yet someone said it was spam... A number of my articles have always been available using this method. Some ezine-directories even insist on it. As from now - this has stopped :(

Create Flash Banners

Although it's hard to admint, software aimed at marketers is often way overpriced. Sometimes you're able to find many excellent utilities and applications as Shareware or Freeware. Look before you buy, folks! This particular utility is called KoolMoves and it lets you EASILY create attractive Flash banners or intros for websites. The amazing thing here is it's only $39 from their website, or just $14.95 if you are in the UK and get a copy of this months Personal Computer World magazine - where there's a copy on the Coverdisc :)
