Without a doubt, if you asked
me, Shane if there was only 1 marketing strategy that you
could use on the Internet, what would it be? Without
hesitation I would say joint Ventures. Joint Ventures are
easily the most lucrative Marketing Strategy ever invented
and if you learn to do it right, will likely be the ONLY
marketing strategy you will ever need to use.
A Good Internet Joint
Venture is your shortcut to success. It can send you more
qualified internet traffic rushing to your site in the
shortest amount of time than anything I've ever seen! And
it can mean bringing your product to market without
spending one single penny of your own money!
In it's simplest form,
Joint Ventures have to do with 2 businesses (or more)
joining forces to leverage off of each others success,
assets and/or expertise. There are hundreds of different
variations but let me just give you one simple example:
One variation of a simple
type of joint venture partnership used most frequently
would be where one business provides a product for sale,
the sales message and the product delivery while the other
business provides the recommendation for that product to
their own list of subscribers/prospects and receiving a
commission based on the sales generated through that
recommendation.
The benefits are great. You
can build your subscriber list, leverage off of your
partners infrastructure like using their existing servers,
software etc where you don’t have to pay a dime. Even
get instant credibility - If you pick the right JV
partner, you can acquire instant credibility and
reputation with their customers and lists. Credibility
sells. Let me give you an example, if you created a book
on "how to acquire real estate", you could
certainly make MANY more sales if you JV'd with Donald
Trump and put his name on the book as the co-author,
building your reputation and increasing your credibility
at the same time. Are you starting to see the incredible
power of this strategy?
Now I know that some people
may think that Joint Ventures are difficult to do,but if
they are telling you this, then I wouldn’t take anything
they tell you at face value because they’re either lying
to you or don’t understand it themselves.
Let me show you how easy it
is. Here’s typically what I do when rolling out a new
product. In this example, let’s pretend that I just
completed a new ebook on Penny Stock Trading and have
setup a web site with an affiliate program. I would go to
google, do a search on keywords like "penny
stock", "penny stock trading", "stock
market strategies" etc..you get the picture. The top
sites on the first page are typically your target
partnersbecause since they appear on the first page you
can bet they have lots of business, traffic, subscribers
and customers. I would visit each site to make sure that
they are right for my product and then I would first send
them a very brief email asking them if they would be
interested in marketing my product in exchange for a high
commission as an incentive.
Typically in this email you
should briefly introduce yourself and your product.
Describe your product and the benefits it would offer to
their Newsletter subscribers, customers and/or web site
visitors. Ask them politely if they wouldn’t mind
responding to you asap and provide your contact
information if they are interested in marketing your
product. Also very important, you need to give them access
to this product FOR FREE!..so that they can review the
product and feel comfortable about endorsing it. These
site owners have spent years building their business,
lists and cultivating their lists to be very responsive.
Any endorsement they do to their huge lists could mean
thousands of dollars in your pocket for very little
effort. More than half of them won’t reply. That’s ok,
move on it’s a numbers game.
Remember if just one of
these super affiliates decides to market your product
you’re golden. Once they contact you all you need to do
is setup their affiliate account and commission. This will
ensure that their commission will be calculated properly
when they endorse your product to their list. Just do this
over and over again to all of the relevant site owners.
Try doing 3 or 4 per day and after a week you’ll have 4
or 5 good JV partners willing to market your product.
Within a week you’ll be on your way to making thousands
of dollars per month, all for 5 hours worth of work and at
NO COST to you. Isn’t that easy?
The great thing about this
strategy is that you don't even need your own product to
profit from this strategy and here's how. Find someone
else's product, join their affiliate program (make sure
it's a two tier program), then use my strategy to find
super affiliates that would be willing to endorse this
product to their list and/or advertise on their HIGH
traffic site, then get these Super Affiliates to join the
affiliate program under you and you can collect a HUGE
amount of 2nd tier commission by having these Super
Affiliates do all the advertising for you, AND you can do
this over and over. Think of the INCREDIBLE potential!
That's all there is to it.
