Part 8 - Getting Partner deals
I am now going to tell you how you can get
your products seen by millions of people for no marketing costs to you.
Think about this, if you want to make a lot
of money, which would make more sense, to open one retail shop, or to find a
product or products that you can supply to many retail outlets?
Obviously if you are a wholesaler/distributor
to many outlets then you would stand a better chance of making a lot of money
right, agreed?
So then it is the same on the Internet. For
example I have been marketing a diet eBook on the Internet. I have made good
money from it.
Most diet web sites are on the Internet to
make money, and are always looking for ways to increase their income. So if you
approach them with a product and say you market my product on your web site and
we will split the money 60/40 or 70/30, they get the largest slice they are
usually willing to do a deal I have found as long as you have a decent product.
Let me give you an example www.ediets.com has 13 million people in its opt-in
mailing list that they email twice a month. They are always looking for new
material to tell the people on the list about, and they are always open to
opportunities to make money. So if you approach them as I did with a diet eBook
and does a profit split they are very happy, I can assure you. Now I am working
with them on back end products. Does this mean you can not approach the same
web site with another eBook? No of course not. There could be 20 of us all with
different products in their newsletter they send out to their opt-in list and
we would all make money.
I could spend years just targeting the diet
web sites with ideas and products. If you want proof of their 13 million list,
go to their web site and click on link at the bottom of their home page that
says company, you can read the below there.
eDiets.com, Inc. (OTC BB: EDET) is the
largest subscription-based online diet, fitness and counselling network.
Founded in 1996 and with corporate headquarters in Deerfield Beach, Florida, eDiets.com offers online subscription-based weight-loss programs using proprietary
software to generate customized diet programs. The programs are designed based
upon individual members' personal goals, food preferences and lifestyles. Over
1.2 million consumers have purchased memberships since 1997 and over 13 million
opt-in subscribers currently receive the company's leading proprietary
bi-weekly health and wellness newsletter, eDiets Diet & Fitness News.
Here 2 more examples that are not in the
health field;
www.gardenweb.com this web site has a massive mailing list. Although I hate gardening I could
write down a list of 50 to 100 ebook titles to offer this web site.
There are over 7 million gardening web sites.
www.pets4you.com this web site has a huge opt-in email list and is another market place with
massive potential for lots of different products.
There are over 15 million pet web sites.
There are 9,260,000 sites on depression
15,800,000 sites for stress
4,480,000 for arthritis
1,700,000 sites for irritable bowel syndrome.
A lot of the sites have elists but do not say
how big they are on their site. But you can also make money from the sites that
don't have an elist. I have contacted sites that don't have an elist but would
be happy to run an advert or banner on their sites for a profit split. So we
can also target any sites that have a good volume of hits.
For example www.ibsgroup.org gets 5 million hits a month. Let's say you put together a half decent report on
the latest findings on dealing with IBS (I know where you can get the info).
And you do a deal to sell the report on their web site. Lets be realistic and
you get one tenth of one percent buy your report and your cut is two pounds.
Does that sound realistic? The fact that these 5 million people are making an
effort to get to that site to get help, right. Do the maths on that.
£10,000 from one web site
One tenth of one percent of 5 million is 5000
sales at two pounds per sale to you that gives you £10,000 in income from that
one web site. What if I am totally wrong and you made a pittance of say
£1000.00 from that web site, which could be a monthly income. Plus if you are
really smart and do what I show you. You will have captured those people who
bought the report details so you could if you wanted to go back to them with
other products. If you wanted to say have a back end herbal product related to
IBS treatment. Guess what I am going to give you web site addresses where you
can find just about anything you want. It is an import - export portal site. I
have found manufactures/suppliers of herbal products in China that will make me what ever I want, or supply a ready made formula in my own label packages.
The mark ups are massive, (see misc section of this manual)
Think about that in detail, those 5 million
people are making the effort to get to that web site because they have a
problem and they are looking for help/information/solutions.
They are not making the effort to get to that
site to play a game or look at porn. They have a want/need and will spend money
if they see something that may help them. It's just a numbers game. You do the
numbers you will make the money.
Think about this, there are at least 100
million web sites on health related subjects alone. If between us we get even
anywhere close to having agreements to sell products through 1 percent of those
we would be so rich wouldn't we? I have tested a method/formula for doing this and
its working. I could never ever contact all the millions of web sites on the
Internet, so I have nothing to lose, and can only gain by showing what I know
works.
Are you starting to grasp the potential of
this yet?
There are millions of web sites that you and
I can contact to offer joint venture deals to. I have just being playing with
my calculator to see what this could grow into; I don't think I am going to be
able to sleep tonight from excitement.
So if you are thinking if this is so good why
aren't lots of other people doing it? My answer to you is; because it is so
simple most people will not have thought of doing it because most business
people and entrepreneurs are so conditioned in thinking that they have to work
hard and put in the graft and hours and are so busy being caught up in the day
to day running of their own business, that they never sit down to figure out
ways to work smart instead of hard. And like some people who read this letter
will think it's too good to be true, because they have been conditioned by
society and their past experience in life that good things can not happen to
them. So when something good does come their way, they dismiss it because of
their negative conditioning.
I know what you are thinking; I don't know
how to do it! I don't have any products! Not a problem, because I will show you
exactly how to do it, and I will show you how to get products to sell
regardless of the marketplace and if I know anything about it or not.
Let me remind you I am not a writer, I am not
some mad genius with a head full of books. I could not start with a blank page
and start writing a book. I am just a normal everyday person with a huge amount
of desire. I don't let the fact that I don't know how to do something get in my
way. If you are committed there is always a way. I will show you how I find all
the material I need on the Internet and the local library and book shops to
either but a product together myself, or pay someone else to do it. When you
are ready to approaching other companies on the Internet to do joint
venture/partnership deals please send me an email to let me know you are ready.
In the email explain the market place you want to target and why. Send me a
copy of your ebook or product, and if you have done it already, the marketing
material to go with the product. And I will then help you target the right type
of companies I think you should aim at. I have a template email that you can
use to send to companies.
Joint ventures can be used to make an almost
instant success of practically any business, especially when you have all of
the tools available to you online. Just about any business can take advantage
of doing joint ventures, both new and old, products and services. It doesn't
matter. What does matter is the fact that a properly set up Joint Venture can
be a Win-Win proposition for absolutely everyone involved.
If you were to think up every marketing
technique that you have ever been taught, I am thoroughly convinced that this
one marketing method could produce more profits than ANYTHING ELSE I or anyone
else could show you. It is simply that powerful!
I know you might have heard about this method
of marketing before, but I want to stress the absolute importance that this
could mean to you and your business. It is the easiest and quickest way to
produce a positive cash flow in ANY business, including yours.
Before we go too far into this report, let us
stop a minute and make sure we all understand exactly what Joint Venture
Marketing is all about. Although it sounds like a difficult idea at first to
learn, the whole premise behind it is extremely simple. Joint Venturing is
taking your products and leveraging them with another company with a similar
customer base to produce almost immediate profits for the both of you.
Everyone wins in this deal. Once you
understand just how simple it is to take advantage of joint ventures in your
business, you will wonder how you could have ever done business without this
no-risk marketing strategy, no matter what business you are in.
An Example of How Joint Ventures Work
For this, we will just use a simple joint
venture where Company A has a customer list or subscriber list.. .Company B has
a product which is a solution to a problem that many of company A's customers
need or want.
If the Company B were to rent Company A's
mailing list with an extremely well crafted offer he may be able to sell 3% of
them on his/her product. A Joint Venture comes in though if Company A decides
to combine efforts with Company B and endorse the offer. In other words, they
recommend the product with a satisfaction guarantee and privileged offer only
to their subscribers.
This simple joint venture could produce sales
rates of up to 30% or even higher! The response rate of 3% has now jumped to
30% just by having Company A & B work together. Then, they split the
profits which are much higher now because of their combined efforts.
Why does the response rate jump SO much just
because of the endorsement of the list owner? It is simple. The customers or
subscribers have dealt with Company A for some time now...They have started to
trust them. The recommendation is taken highly by them. The most powerful form
of marketing is word of mouth and this is where word of mouth can come into
play and practically guarantee the success of both companies involved.
This is only one example of how a Joint
Venture can work. There are really infinite possibilities which can be brought
into the equation to make them more successful and Risk-Free.
One Simple Technique for Finding Joint Ventures
Here is one simple technique for you to find
joint ventures on your own on the internet. The internet gives a vast advantage
in our marketing efforts when you learn how to take advantage of it. This
specific technique is for those who have a product that they would like to
sell...
Step One: Figure out and research who
your targeted market is or should be.
Step Two: Go to one of the major
Search Engines and search for keywords which relate to your targeted market.
Step Three: Browse the results and
chose those companies which are selling similar to your targeted market and
write down their names and email addresses. You are especially looking for
sites which have carved out a niche in a market and have customers who trust
them.
Step Four: Send my template email
letter telling the owner/s of the business that you believe that their
customers would greatly appreciate what you have to offer and that you would
like to joint venture with them for a Win-Win Situation for everyone involved.
Tell them to email you back as soon as possible so that you can explain more
and work out the deal.
(At this point if you feel you need help in
closing a deal with the company, I will be more than happy to help you.)
You will need to have a product ready and a
web site because the other company will want to see them. If you have been
doing adwords then this should not be a problem.
I have a template letter which you can have a
copy of when you are ready to email to companies which lays out the proposal to
do joint venture/partnership deals with them with your products.
I am not going to give you exact details of
what to do and say in this manual to stop you just nicking my methods and going
off and doing it without me, to make sure I get my cut of your deals.
Most of it is common sense but you have to do
it in right way. You have to approach the companies in a certain way. Rather
than you go off and try it on your own. I would rather help you do it right so
you don't lose deals.
Please don't go steaming in to the biggest
companies you can find. Let's start with some small deals until you get the
hang of it, and polish and perfect your approach. As in all selling you usually
only have one chance to make a good first impression.
With the bigger companies it may take more
than one approach, we may need to build up a relationship with them, get a
rapport with them.
Once you have proven yourself to me by
finding a market place, getting ideas for product, getting a web site set up
and getting a product together then I will give you more details on how to do
this.
But once again in will be in your best
interest to make money pretty quickly by using adwords. It is easy to do; cost’s
very little and will bring you in an income within hours of you putting up your
first advert. Being honest with you it will take you 6 to 8 weeks to start
getting an income if you just start with targeting companies to do joint
venture deals with, just down to the time it takes to get a decision from them.
