You do the work once and turn on the “machine” and let it work for you 24/7 365 days a year.

I’m talking about Viral Marketing.

Here’s how it works…

You create a basic product on an in-demand topic in your niche and turn it into a PDF.

Write a salesletter and create a simple download page so that all others have to do is edit it with their name, order link, and download link and upload it.

Here’s the driving force behind this method…

- Include *Transferrable* Master Resell Rights!

Make note of this inside the PDF after the Title and before the Table of Content or the start of the product content.

You want everyone who gets their hands on it to know that they can pass it along.

Side note – they typically will be too lazy to do so if you do not give them the necessary means to do so. I’m talking about passing on the sales page, download page, instructions on setting it up, etc… everything possible to make sure they won’t have an excuse not to pass it on.

Here’s something I’ve done in the past with huge success.

I created a report, had a graphic made for it, created a simple, professional looking opt-in “squeeze” page for it and provided instructions on how to insert the autoresponder email form to the page and how to upload to their site so that all they had to do is send traffic to it.

I even included a ready-made email or two that they could paste into their autoresponder.

Just to make SURE they took action, I included a couple of traffic generation methods that they could use right away to start getting traffic.

But I took the report one step further…

I made it brandable so that others (if they chose to) could brand the report with their affiliate link to resources or recommended products listed in the report.

Of course, some of those products were my own.

FYI: I used ViralPDF.com to make it brandable

Do you see how powerful this can be?

I was getting affiliates signing up to my affiliate program week after week on total auto-pilot.

Now, you have to understand, every time someone downloaded this ready-made list building system they TOO had transferable master rights!

They could sell it or give it away.

If you REALLY want something to go viral, I would highly recommend that you make sure to include “giveaway rights”.

——————Hot Tip——————–

Include an Ad for your highest converting “squeeze page” inside your viral report so that you can build your list on 100% auto pilot while others do the hard work!

———————————————

To give it every chance of getting exposure on the net, submit it to ebook directories.

Just do a search for them in Google :-)

That’s it for today. This method is VERY powerful for those who choose to use it.

Take advantage of it.

It’s called Content Recycling.

Basically, you turn 1 ebook into
multiple profit centers by converting
it into multiple formats.

Here’s an example that works like crazy…

Take your ebook and create a video
version, say a powerpoint or step by
step how-to video, or even an MP3
audio version and offer it as an
upsell for an additional price.

You can offer this on a separate sales
page between the primary sales page
and the order form, or immediately
after the transaction (before the
product delivery page).

Approximately 30% will take you up
on this giving you an instant pay raise
with very little work on your part.

That’s called working smart :-)

The fact is…

Many people love having options and
choices and will be happy to have
more than 1 format to digest your
product.

In this day of smart phones and ipods,
we’re “on the go” and want to have
instant access to whatever we want
ASAP.

So while a PDF is great for desktop
reading or printing off, sometimes
an audio version satisfies our need
to listen while we’re working out or
shopping, or driving, etc

Give this “trick” a try right away
and thank me later for the extra
moolah you pocket.

…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.

If you found this useful, keep an
eye out for my future emails for
more proven strategies and tips
for generating online profits.

When you’re trying to sell your book, you want to have one outcome and one outcome only on your pages. Your audience needs to focus on one thing and not be distracted. So, whenever you’re creating a site specifically designed to sell something, you don’t want to have places for people to click around and go to other places. Basically, if you want the outcome for people to buy something, you need to focus your sales page on having your visitor perform that function and not any number of things.

Also, if you’re featuring video on your sales page, good for you! Video has become one of the top ways to improve conversions. However, it’s best to host the video yourself on your site. Too often, I see YouTube videos being used on sales pages. This is a big no no. The biggest problem about using YouTube as your video, is your visitor can click and go to the YouTube and totally leave your page. You definitely don’t want this to happen. You want the people to stick. If you want people to read, you want people to stick, you don’t want them clicking around and going to a thousand different places and leaving the page. You want to get them sucked in and reading into what’s going on.

I always typically start off my first line of almost any sales letter as a short – straight to the point letter, to kind of get my reader involved in the copy and get them to start reading. This strategy has worked very well for me over the years.

Another option you could consider is giving your prospect a preview of your book. So, let’s just say that you have two outcomes laid out for your visitor. The one outcome you’re looking for on this page is get them to sign up to get a preview of the book. The second thing you’re looking for them to do is to get them to go buy your book.

What you may want to do is create one page specifically to get them to preview your book. Then after they sign up and preview your book, then have them land on the page where they can go and buy the book. I think that’s going to be the best thing. So, basically, you’ve got an opt-in page and you’ve got a sales letter page. What I would do is I would set up an opt-in page specifically designed to give them the preview of the book, and then have them have the option to preview the book.

Remember, don’t have too many actions for people to take. Like in this case, you had two actions (to buy the book and to preview it). If you can separate those actions, that’s really going to help you out. Don’t have a bunch of links and other options on your website. Focus on one thing. You’ve got to make it one outcome, one outcome only. Don’t let them click around. I think that’s one of the biggest problems people make. If you know how to avoid them, your overall revenues will be much greater!

Publishing – Hard-Copy Vs Digital Ebook
By Matt Bacak

You have done some writing and you had hoped of one day getting your stuff published. However, finding a publisher that wants to publish your writings can be a long and adventurous task. First you have to find a publisher that is even willing to read it and then you are at their mercy while they decide whether or not they think it will sell. The other alternative is to publish the books yourself, but you quickly find out that the costs for doing so are beyond your budget. So, what do you do? Do you try publishing some, with the hopes of selling enough to be able to publish the rest? Or do you simply produce an ebook and sell it via places before you produce a hard-copy version?

I personally think that producing an ebook version and then publishing it afterward, is a great thing to do. It’s best to start out this way so that you don’t invest a ton of money into getting it published. After all, you want to see if it sells first, right! Producing a digital version is the best way to do it simply because it’s inexpensive and can be published with the click of a button.

Of course, the way you market your new brilliant book, will have a huge impact on your earnings, but at least you can see how well it sells or could sell based on your efforts. By publishing your book digitally first, you can learn a lot from the process, while getting it done a lot quicker. You also could potentially make a lot more money than you ever could from the publishing route. You’ll be able to keep all of the profits by selling it on your own. And just think, you could also get others to sell it who have related sites, and you could give them a percentage of the sale! So, you’ll have an entire army working for you and no extra cost to you. If you create a good enough buzz and market it well, you could make a bundle.

However, once you get it going, I would still publish the hard cover as well, for the simple reason that it’s going to open up more avenues and channels of distribution than you could ever get with an ebook. If you open the window of opportunity, you’ll be amazed at what can happen.
