"P" Your Way To Online Success With Great Promotions! © 2002 Jeff D. Schuman ==========================================================
Jeff Schuman here with another article on making money from the comfort of your own home with my Amazing Sales Formula and Internet Marketing!
This article is going to deal with GREAT PROMOTIONS and the impact they have on The Amazing Sales Formula and your making money at home!
In some of my past articles I looked at how having a GREAT PRODUCT and working with GREAT PEOPLE can have such a major impact on the success of your own internet marketing business.
We followed that by talking about GREAT PRICING and all of the elements that go into establishing the price for the products you are selling!
Today we want to look at the importance of having GREAT PROMOTIONS to help you get the word out to the millions and millions of potential customers and business partners out there!
Every Great Promotion contains several key things!
1. An Offer to your prospect 2. Powerful action words 3. Perceived Value to your prospect 4. Relates back to your primary product 5. Has a deadline
Promoting a product or business opportunity on the internet is easily done by offering something of value to your prospect! You want to get them to look at or consider what it is you are offering them!
The FREE eCourse "P" Your Way To Online Business Success is a perfect example of this.
My main product I am offering you are Free to join affiliate programs at my Team-Schuman.Com Site!
How I've chosen to market it is through a series of eReports delivered to you by email over a period of days by an autoresponder.
My autoresponder contains the eCourse I have written and then is set to send out the reports to your email address on the days I tell it!
By offering something FREE to you I increase the odds of getting you to open your mail and read this eCourse! The use of the internet as the promoting vehicle makes it very easy to offer FREEBIES to your prospect to accomplish this.
Take a look at what I offer when subscribing to the course itself.
250 free business cards http://www.vistaprint.com
Complete Money Making Newsletter Set-Up Free! http://www.team-schuman.com/pips.html
Free eBook "30 Days To Success" http://www.team-schuman.com/30days.html
Free eCourse "P" Your Way To Success Send a blank email here: pcourse@aweber.com
I have offered... * Free business cards * Free eBooks * Free newsletter * Free money making system
and a FREE training course that contains perceived value (I HOPE) because they relate back to the content of this Free eCourse.
These can be delivered instantly to you and can help you make money on the internet with no product and no website of your own!
Could I give away pencils or coffee mugs that say Team-Schuman Marketplace on them?
Yes!
But how would
I deliver them to you instantly and would they contain the same perceived value to You as the FREEBIES do?
That is what promoting your online business is all about. Having an offer that is so irresistable to your customer and getting it "SEEN" by them!
Over the years there have been many GREAT PROMOTIONS! Offers so irresistable that they had to be checked out by you and I! They all contain words so powerful that we could not resist the temptation to at least check them out!
Words like FREE, 50% off, offer ends soon, limited time offer, Buy Now Pay Later, No Money Down, No Payment For 1 Full Year, No Interest for 90 days, Secrets Revealed, and many more!
Of course there are hundreds of more powerful words when it comes to GREAT PROMOTIONS! Perhaps you can think of some right now that relate to a product you are selling. Or maybe it is a product you have recently bought. How was it promoted? What caught your attention? Why did you finally buy it? You get the idea!
The only thing we haven't really discussed yet is the deadline. Why is a deadline important? Because it creates an image that your GREAT PROMOTION won't last forever.
To me the most powerful word to do that is FREE! Whenever I see or hear the word FREE in the back of my mind is the thought "For How Long?" Nothing lasts forever.
No Great Promotion is going to last forever. We all know that. Even more directly put are phrases like Offer Ends Soon, Only 15 left, This will sell out fast! These powerful key words help to create a sense of urgency with a deadline to your GREAT PROMOTION!
How do you advertise your Great Promotion? That is a whole course in itself. But I like to increase my recognition through Top Of Mind Awareness (TOMA)!
The internet really makes that possible through the use of autoresponders.
Here is something you can check out on FREE Autoresponders that really makes automating your promotions easy! http://www.team-schuman.com/getresponse
"UNLOCK THE MOST POWERFUL SECRET TO DOUBLING YOUR SALES!" "With NEW intelligent software that's FREE."
New, sophisticated autoresponder allows fast, repetitive, personalized and consistent email follow-up. SAVE time and money.
GRAB YOUR FREE VERSION NOW! A email follow-up tool for FREE! Don't wait, go now: http://www.team-schman.com/getresponse
If you are looking to build an online business of your own then all of the FREEBIES so far can be bookmarked and saved to refer back to over and over for years to come!
That's the beauty of the internet. You can be promoting for days, weeks and months down the road just off of your efforts today.
If you are a person who likes marketing and advertising then you will love internet marketing and network marketing on the internet because of the many exciting ways you can promote.
I listed some of my favorites here. If you want to check them out send a blank email here: promotions@aweber.com
