How to Promote Your Own Information Product

Creating your own information product is not enough to ensure monstrous profit from the World Wide Web.  You have to learn how to market the same.  The operative word in Internet Marketing, after all, is still “marketing.”

Here are some strategies that are sure to help you increase your earnings by boosting the sales rate of your information product…

1. Gaining affiliates.  If you’re selling something in the world wide web without seeking the help of affiliates, then there’s something wrong with your marketing strategy.  Worse, you’re losing thousands, if not millions of dollars, in revenue.  Why?  Because utilizing affiliates is the quickest and most efficient way of gaining a prominent presence in the World Wide Web.  Affiliates will get your business message across a wide audience.  And since they’ll be promoting your product via an affiliate link you’ll provide, leading to central sales page where you can convert visitors into sales, you’d be able to generate a massive amount of traffic.  And as you very well know, in online business, your success is always, always, always dependent on the amount of traffic you’ll be able to garner for your website.  

There are two ways by which you can employ affiliate marketing.  First is by establishing your own affiliate program.  You may require specific software programs and scripts, as well as appropriate web hosting features, for this approach.  Second is by joining affiliate networks like www.clickbank.com , www.paydotcom.com , and www.cj.com .  This approach is simpler, and it’s ideal for novices in this industry.

2. Joint ventures.  You’d also benefit a lot by partnering with established marketers.  There are many models for this business setup.  Let’s take a look at some of them:
  • You can pool together some products to create more attractive packages.
  • You can promote the campaign in your respective mailing lists for greater exposure.
  • You can merge your affiliate forces together for a more efficient campaign.

What’s in it for your JV partner?  Aside from the profit-sharing scheme you may agree on beforehand, you can also cross-promote each other’s products or invite each other’s subscriber to your respective mailing lists.  Joint ventures are beneficial for all parties and internet marketers are always amenable to proposals of this nature.

3. Pay Per Click Advertising.  This is a rather tricky maneuver because you will have to pay a certain amount to have your sales page’s URL advertised.  The trick is in knowing how much you should be spending.  And the rule is: spend only what you can afford to lose.  With PPC advertising in programs like Google AdWords, your sales page will appear prominently for every relevant query in Google.  Promoting an eBook about dog grooming?  A link to your sales page will appear every time a user searches for the term “dog grooming.”  However, you will have to pay the program every time a user clicks on your ad.  How can this be profitable, you might ask?  It all depends on the conversion rate your sales page is capable of.  If your sales page can convert 10% of your visitors into successful sales, and you’re selling your information product for $50, you can afford to spend $50 per week at $0.10 per click.  This will give you 500 visitors, and if your sales page can convert 10% of them, you’d have 50 paying customers, and $2,500 in gross profit.  It all boils down to testing.  You have to test your sales page to the ground so that you’d know how well it can really perform.  And you have to do this before availing of PPC advertising.

These 3 tactics are sure to catapult your sales rate to untold heights of profitability.  Study them well, and consider employing them once you have created your information product.  They can very well be the factors that will transform your product into a certified blockbuster.

Copy Writing Crash Course - Part 2

Modeling And Learning If we are to be witty about it, learning copy writing is not only about the “writing.”  A good part of it is also about the “copy.”  By “copy,” I mean the act of imitating or mimicking something that is already in existence. No, I don’t mean that you should become a fraud and steal ideas left and right. Performance Marketing Agency What I want to say is that you should take time to study excellent sales copies, learn the methods that are used, and develop your own style by patterning your thought processes in accordance with the ideas behind proven sales letters.
