Clean Up the Environment
Most people want a clean environment. Tell your
prospects that you'll donate a percentage of your
profits to help clean up the environment. For
example, you could say, "I will donate $1 from every
product I sell to help clean up the environment."
Most people want to eat good food. Give your
customers free coupons to a nice restaurant when
they purchase your product. You could contact
a highly recommended restaurant and ask them if
they would like their ad on your web site in ex-
change for providing you with coupons to their
restaurant.
Most people need or want new information to
absorb. Give your customers a free e-book or tip
sheet when they purchase your product. For
example, you could say, "When you buy 2 or more
products at the regular price, I’ll send you an e-
book with 1000 recipes for apples."
Team up with eight to ten other sites to promote
the same web site. Just include everyone's products
on the web site you are all promoting. You can also
do this with free e-books too. Get others to promote
the free e-book in exchange for an ad in it.
Give free e-mail consultations to your customers.
When you e-mail them back your advice, include a
small ad for a back-end product you're selling. For
example, "If you would like to learn more detailed
information about publishing an e-zine, I highly
recommend visiting http://www.(your web or affiliate
site).com".
Encourage your customers or visitors to e-mail
you questions about your product or web site. Just
include your sig file with your reply. For example,
here is a sig file: Jon Blank, Author And Publisher,
http://www.----------------.com
Give out free web space on your server. Many
of your visitors may want to publish their own web
site. Just require that they publish your banner ad.
For example, if you gave away 100 free web pages
and got only 1 hit a week off each one, that would
be an extra 5200 visitors a year!
Design web sites for other businesses for free.
Just require them to publish your banner or text ad
somewhere on their home page. For example, you
could create web page templates and graphics for
them. Other people will see your work and want
to visit your main web site for more information.
Make your potential customers forget about the
competition. Just tell them to forget with a factual
and believable reason why they should. For example,
you could say, "You should just forget about doing
business with our competition, they don't offer free
shipping like we do."
