Fastest way to sell your ebook? (step by step instructions)

So you have a great ebook filled
with valuable info that your
target audience would LOVE….

…if only they knew about it!

Problem solved.

I’m going to tell you how to get
a massive surge of sales quickly
without spending a single dime in
advertising.

How?

You’re going to convince your
“competition” to sell it FOR
you for a share of the profits.

It’s called Joint Venture Marketing.

Here’s how it works…

Set up an Affiliate Program for
your ebook that pays others a
commission when they send you a
customer.

Don’t worry, this is very simple.

The fastest, easiest way to do this
(for ebooks or any digital product)
is to go to http://PaySpree.com

You can get your 1st product setup
free :-)

Plus, they make it easy to capture
your customer leads and setup a
protected download for your ebook.

Cool, huh?

When that’s done, do the following:

1. Go to Google and type in the
primary keyword or phrase that
your target audience would most
likely use to find your product.

2. Visit the Top 10 to 20 websites
that show up on the first two pages
of results. These are the sites
that are getting the most traffic.

3. Make note of the sites that
are selling a “similar”, but not
“exact” product like yours.

For example, if your ebook is about
exercises that you can do at home
and one of the sites you visit sells
an ebook on nutrition, they’re a
perfect candidate.

You’re both in the Fitness niche
but not directly competing with
each other.

They get extra points if you see
a newsletter subscription form on
the site.  This means they have
built-in, targeted traffic that
you can leverage!

4. Find their contact information
and send them an email, or postal
letter, introducing yourself and
your product/website, along with
how you found them.

Tell them a little about your
product and how it compliments
theirs and that you would like
to propose a mutually profitable
joint venture.

Then ask them to contact you for
more details.  That’s it.

The “1st contact” is just about
getting them to respond, so make
it short.

When they contact you, explain
your proposal.

Tell them how your ebook will
benefit their customers.  Offer
to send a complimentary review
copy of your ebook to see for
themselves.

Then, if they’re happy with the
ebook and think it’s a good fit
for their customers/subscribers,
you’ll be happy to share ___% of
the profits for every sale they
refer.

*I recommend sharing at least 50%.
After-all, you need them. They
don’t need you.

If they agree, the next step is
to send them the “affiliate page”
address that PaySpree provides to
you that will contain their unique
affiliate link and any promotional
materials.

If all goes well, you could have
sales in as little as 24 hours…
depending on how quick your JV
partner promotes your ebook.

Your next step?

Rinse and repeat!

I’ve just given you a complete
business model that has made
others, just like you, extremely
successful.

All you have to do is take the
ball and run with it.

The Things I Have Learned And Changed Over the Years

I was on the phone today with one of my friends that I have known for a long time, Mark Anastasi. Mark noticed something when I took him on my Redneck Internet Marketing Retreat.

He said that he had noticed a change in me and it was an interesting point he made.

Mark said he has known me for years, and when he met me, I was very hungry and I came from a focus of being afraid to be poor.

But he said, now I come from a different place of making money.

It is interesting because when I first met him, I was running a company which had 47 employees, high payroll and I always did feel poor.

I had a lot of overhead and everything depended on me. And it just caused me to make money.

And to keep the pressure and my “stress motivation” high, I made sure that my bank accounts were low, so I felt as if that I was poor even though I was making millions, and that was a big driver for me.

It came to a point where I realized that I just needed to focus on the rewards, the things that I want, the places I need to go and to enjoy my land.

My land became a place that I wanted to have where I set different goals and, I created an environment where I transformed that fear of being poor to being a focus of creating a retirement.

I know that this makes sense for anybody but if it is really powerful for me, to say, okay, what I need to do is focus my energy,my mind, my money-making on what can I do to increase my retirement.

My personal goal is to become my own trust fund baby, so I can experience the true life of passive income.

A life where I do not have to bust my butt, I have been here online for 10 years, and for nine of those 10, I came from a place of scarcity, and now am coming from a place of creating an environment and realizing that I want to create an environment of passive income.

I thought that creating continuity was truly passive income.

That is not true. I just died of work after a couple of months and started letting people drop off.

People talk about buying houses and having renters as a form of would be passive income.

That is bull crap.

The renters suck, I have learned through many experiences. It is not true passive income.

True passive income is having money in a secure investment and having that money working for you, where you are just getting checks for doing nothing, playing around, literally sitting on your butt.

I know that I have to use my business, it’s my personal cash cow to create that environment for me.

And that my goal for

investments is security

not growth.

This thinking has led me to be in a different place, a greater place, and greater clarity.

Think about using your business as a way to create that retirement, so that you can truly enjoy your life, you can truly enjoy the things that the internet is going to bring for you, like it has for me.

These are just some things to think about… I hope this helps and inspires you.

If you aren’t ready for this then it may not make sense to you today, but save this because one day, down the road, it will make sense to you.

Changes in the Market Place

The noise in the market place is probably louder than I have ever seen it.

I am going on my 10th year and when I got in, there was not that much noise.

We really could say, okay we are going to pick the date to do our launch and everybody would kind of move their schedules and nobody would touch that date.

Unfortunately, today, we are at the point where the market has a lot of people in it, there are a lot more launches going on.

It is not that people are not paying attention to everybody else’s launches. It’s just that you cannot, no matter what you try to do to wiggle it around, you are still going to land on the same date as someone else.

There are only a couple of ways around it, and we are going to look at it from two beautiful perspectives.

One, what do you promote?

What thing do you focus on at the time? And I think the only answer to that is focusing on numbers.

You are going to look at different numbers and which one of multiple different offers to commit to of the the offers that are available on the same day.

You cannot send them all, so you have to listen to the numbers, and what I mean by that is discovering what the EPCs are.

The EPCs or Earnings Per Clicks are on the offers.  That will give you a better determination especially if you are going to run a business, the better determination of which one and which offer to mail.

There are circumstances where you will

want to mail outside the guidelines by forgiving and forgetting EPC…

That is when you have got a ‘mailer’, somebody that is promoting or will promote you back, you can forgive EPC.

Or two, it is a good friend you

want to support or it is  somebody

you wanted to get to know better.

Those are cases to forget EPC and mail an offer anyway.

The other side to this is, how do

you choose which day you go?

Well, that is another question and there are a couple of different things you can think of.

One, you can actually sit back and say to yourself, “I am going to just launch on my date,” here is my date and let everybody know your date and you just go and get all the support you can possibly get.

Now, if you take that approach, there will be other launches going on.  You remember one of the biggest and most important things is exactly what I said a little bit earlier.

One of the most important things is focusing on and getting that EPC up as much as you possibly can, because they might mail someone else’s offer.

You are going to probably get and make more money, and they will be willing to mail your offer and another thing is guaranteeing that you are going to make sure that these people are getting paid.  It is very important.

People will look at running a Clickbank offer faster than doing someone else’s offer if they have no relationship with them because they wanted to get paid, and there is a lot of stuff going on right now in the market place where people are getting paid.

That way you can guarantee the commission is another great way to make it happen.

Another thing and ,this is not the best thing that I have been getting really good, that is doing what is called the surprise launch.

I actually have my launch. I normally do something at certain period of time.

I just kind of hit around and ask when people have openings and I look for that opening on when people or there are no commitments going on at a certain period of time.

But I am in a level where I could probably do that better than most people

just because I talk to everybody. I am with everybody, I am on Skype with everybody.

I have got their texts and phone numbers I can call and say hey, I am thinking about going, when is the best time for you and then if I get enough people, then I will say okay I am going to do it then.

I have never seen the market place like this. I have never seen it where I even have to do that and say I am going on this day and paying them.

These are some things to think about so that you can get around it, I think, but the number one most important thing is EPC, whether it is what you are going to promote or what you are doing getting that number up, getting the visitor value up, getting them out, you are going to bring home up and making sure you get paid.

How to Instantly Decrease Your Refunds

There are a couple of things you could do.

One is increasing  the length of your guarantee.

Many people believe that a shorter guarantee is going to increase their refunds; the opposite is true.

The longer the refund period, the less refunds you are typically going to get.

But there’s another thing, I think it’s the big thing that most of us will forget, and it is trying to increase consumption.

The more you can do things to increase consumption of your products, the less refunds you’re going to have because many people are frozen with fear.

Frozen with fear of actually doing it.

If you can help them increase the consumption of your products and your services, then you’re going to have a decrease in your refund rates.

And there’s many other things you could do to help decrease it, for example, offer better sup-port.
Wow! That’s a great thought there, right?

But having better support means supporting them on whatever they have purchased.

Sometimes, it could be a little thing like getting a link.

Being accessible is huge to decrease your refunds, but I think those three things right there are very important for each and everyone of you guys to think of.

So what can you do to increase the consumption?
What are you willing to do to make the guarantee even better, maybe even longer?

And what are you willing to do, not only to increase the consumption but also to get better support on your products or services.

Attracting Super Affiliates

If you want to attract super affiliates to you affiliate program, you got to think a little differently… in the sense of, Are you giving to receive?

I think a lot of people are missing out on a clear thing that has been unwritten law for many years, and that is go first.

Give.

Are you mailing for the people that you want to get the mail for you?

I think it’s a key factor in getting and attracting super affiliates.

Now, you’re more likely to get super affiliates coming to you, but how do we do it without having the ability to be able to mail?

Well, you’ve got to have a good converting offer.

People love to mail offers that are going to con-vert and make them money, but people also like to follow what everybody else is doing.

So, if “everybody’s mailing that offer”, they’ll be more likely to mail that offer, too.

It’s utilizing the crowd mentality, that kind of keeping up with the Joneses mentality to get people to mail because that’s going to be huge asset to getting people to promote your products and your services.

You’ve got to also think about something else.

If you’ve ever seen network marketing companies, I don’t think there’s that much difference from affiliate marketing and network marketing. Think about it from this perspective, think of affiliate marketing as network marketing except it’s a two tier structure.

You’re at the top and you’ve got other people promoting.

So if you look at what network marketing organizations are doing to motivate their people, to incentivize their people to market the company.

How can you utilize those tactics and those strategies inside your company?

Another angle that most people don’t even think about but it’s huge.  Another thing is going out and just being with them.

Where are they at?

Where can you find a group, a group of people that you want to mail for you if you can get around them and be with them and get to hang out with them, maybe at the bar or wherever it is.

You are going to find the likelihood for them to say yes is going to be higher.
Both now and later on down the road.

So think about what you can do.

I mean, there are many of you who will need to use these strategies to attract to super affiliates, but some times, you’ve got to go first if you want them to come to you.

Two Sneaky Little Tricks to Make More Affiliate Sales

For all you marketers out there, I probably should have said three sneaky little ways because you would have read the article faster.

Hint: Odd numbers pull better than even ones.

Unfortunately, I did not want to pull a third one out of my butt that I have never done.

First thing is something that most people don’t do.

Take a video of yourself buying the product and send the video out to your subscribers showing you bought it, giving them social proof.

That way works very well. It is kinda of like playing a game when you were a little kid called “follow the leader” or “monkey see monkey do”.

The second trick is something simple that only a few people do.

Throw in your own special bonus and tell your list if they buy this product you will give them “X” bonus.

Then just have them email you the receipt and you send them whatever it is that you promised them. It works fairly well.

Ok, Ok folks, I did actually come up with a third one. While doing this something else came to mind… I just forgot!

Inside Today’s 
Affiliate Marketer’s Mind

We have come to a time when seasoned affiliate marketers are not just marketing anything. (Like they used too.) But, these days they are looking for a few important aspects with the offers.

1. EPC
2. Continuity
3. Guaranteed Pay-outs

Many affiliate marketers are getting sick and tired of emailing down blackholes.

Here’s a few things to take in high consideration:

Many affiliate marketers spend large sums of their time, effort and money building up their email lists. So, sending an email and not getting paid or having it not make them any money means one important thing: Opportunity costs.

Because they could have just mailed something they knew that makes them money or even mailed something of their own and made 100% of the money.

Let’s take a look at these three essential areas that you must cover whether you are creating an affiliate offer or looking for one to email out:

First, EPC.

For many affiliate marketers that look at their email list like a REAL business, they focus and manage numbers. They pay close attention to their email delivery rate, their clicks and the amount of money they make per each click.

EPC stands for Earnings Per Click.

That means that for every click they send they get back X dollars or cents.

So, what numbers should you be looking at getting per click or EPC?

Well, it really varies on the affiliate marketer. But, I have noticed that if something is getting over $1 a click it gets more attention than other offers.

My personal rule of thumb is to make sure that I get at least $1.50 a click. Now, here’s where many guys fail. And something to take into consideration…

THE DOUBLE EDGE SWORD:

If we just look at the EPC on a given day and don’t take in consideration the long term value of the EPC then you can lose money in the long run. Let me give you a good example:

I mailed an offer for Patric Chan, it made me $0.70 per click. So I dropped the offer the next day and moved to another one that was paying better.

I logged into my affiliate account 3 months later and his stick rate on his continuity program was very high and I was still getting paid. Now my EPC on that offer was well over 1.50. I was shocked and excited.

Here’s why it’s a double edge sword, because a lot of offers you’ll mail will have a continuity piece to it but a lot of times they won’t have a good stick rate.

That’s why I never usually take that into consideration to give an offer the benefit of the doubt but in this case my theory was wrong. So, you know what I did? I emailed him and asked him if his offer was still going – it was so I mailed it again. This time harder than before.

Second, Continuity.

A lot of affiliate marketers do in fact pay attention to continuity. Because they like getting paid again and again. Especially if they are using a guaranteed affiliate pay-out system such as Clickbank.
Think about this, you mail something for a low ticket you can get a lot of buyers and a lot of people on the Continuity.

Although here are some things to take in consideration. The biggest thing to take into consideration is the stick rate and how clear they are on the continuity.

Sending your subscribers to an offer that’s not clear on the Continuity, will piss off your subscribers and they may never buy from you again.

Third, Guaranteed Pay-outs

Next let’s think about guaranteed payments. This right here is probably the number one thing affiliates marketers are looking for because it does not matter how good the EPC is or the Continuity if you don’t get paid.

How do I look for Guaranteed payments.

If it is somebody I can strangle quickly, like somebody in the area.
Somebody who is an affiliate of mine as well, because if they don’t pay me I can take it out of their affiliate checks.
People that are using third party affiliate programs where you are pretty much guaranteed a payment.
Examples would be Clickbank and Paydotcom.com.

Clickbank cuts a check and mails the payment to you themselves. Paydotcom is a third party managing the affiliate program. The person with the program you are promoting pays you but, you can get Paydotcom in the middle if there is a problem.

Bottom line marketers want to get paid.

How to Instantly Increase Your Conversions Using a Hot List

Before I can even tell you how to increase your conversions with a hot list, you probably need to know what the hell a hot list is.

A hotlist is the list you build of the people that went to your sales page and put their name and email address in an opt in form to go to the second step, which is completing the order form.

Right now I have seen two ways that people have created hot lists. One is what I call an in between page that says step one of two “hidden opt in page”

The other way that I have seen it done is an opt in page on the sales letter,
in which nobody can see the order form unless they opt into the opt in box.

Hopefully that makes sense, it is kind of hard to explain writing it, but I guarantee you if you go to any of my sales pages you will see this in action.

So now that you know what a hot list is, let’s discuss increasing your conversions. Many people think that this is just a way of collecting emails,and they forget that you can still communicate with them, they are the hottest people.

The idea behind this is, if they don’t buy, continue to mail them until they do. This is what I suggest you do.

Three to five emails in the follow up sequence to the non-buyers is sufficient enough. Make sure if someone buys that they are immediately taken out of this follow up sequence.

What exactly should you put in those follow up emails?

Here is what I do.

I create a list of the biggest reasons that they might have not filled out the order form.

Then I write an email that address those reasons and overcomes them.

Reason number one is answered in email #1

Reason number two is answered in email #2

Reason number three is answered in email #3 and so on.

Confidential Conversation with a Click Bank Account Manager

Confidential Conversation with a Click Bank
Account Manager

In a recent conversation with A Click Bank Account Manager regarding the best trials and reoccurring stick rate, something very valuable was discovered the ClickBank account manager not only analyzed their accounts, but also spoke with other account managers, and they all came to the same conclusion.

They noticed that with a reoccurring program, the accounts with the lowest chargebacks, lowest refunds, best retention rate and the highest front end sales conversion were those with 14 day trials at $1.00 with a price of $67.77 or $67.95 reoccurring.

They also discovered a lot of people have a myth that the straight $67.00 price is king, but have found that any price without cents on the end (.97) raises a red flag on peoples credit card statements.

So things like $17, 27, 37, 47, 97 all stand out on a credit card statement when mixed in with other normal charges that include dollars and cents (1.99) on their Credit card statements.

So you are probably asking why would that be? The answer is taxes. Everything has tax on it.
