Editors Note.
------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome again to a new edition of "SmartPromotion
Newsletter".
As you may know, I usually start my newsletter with a
special gift. And I don't like to change this formula :-)
This time I have a new Ebook, by George Chapin, called:
"How To Create An Automated Ebay Money Machine".
George explains in his easy writing style how to use
the Ebay auction site to create huge profits online.
You can download the book from:
http://www.ebooks-made-easy.com/eBayMoneyMachine.zip
(The book comes in .EXE format, and can be customized
with your own affiliate links. Details are located inside the
book, but if you can't wait, you may go right here:
http://www.ebooks-made-easy.com/branding.htm
)
There's bad news for those amongst you who use
email to do business online...
... and that's most of us...
You know that I use Topica to send out this newsletter.
If you look at the header of this email, you'll see the
Habitas sp*m control subject lines.
These lines tell sp*m filer services to pass the email
message. But there's a rumor going on that says that
everyone who uses email may eventually have to pay
to have our emails pass through those email filters.
And this is something that worries JL Scott, of The
International Council of Online Professionals. She
wrote an important article about it that you can read
right here:
http://www.i-cop.org/habeas/exploitation.htm
Don't skip it if you're concerned about your email.
To your online success!

PS: I just read Paul Prissick's latest Ebook "All About Hits",
and liked it very much. Paul makes it easy to get started with
an online business, and shows you how to make profit with
very little effort.
Everything is included. Proven sales letters, techniques,
detailed examples, resources and templates.
You may have heard this comment before, but it is the
truth... Paul Prissick "spills his guts" so you don't have
to bleed dollars and cents.
You can download Paul's inspiring book from:

Smart Promotion Tip
------------------------------------------------------------
Are you using redirect links? A redirect link helps you not
only to redirect your visitors, but also hides your affiliate
links or shorten a long URL and convert it into a search-
engine friendly link.
You can use a script to do this, but I prefer to use the
META refresh.
Here's how it works. Set-up a new page, and put this in
the < head> section :
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="0;
URL=http://www.long-url-goes-here.com/target-page.htm">
In the < body> of the page, place an actual link to the
target page with a message saying; "Click here if this
page does not refresh automatically."
You can also change the CONTENT="0; to something
like CONTENT="5.
The number controls how many seconds the page is
viewable before it refreshes.

Article of the Month
------------------------------------------------------------
This months article is written by Stephen Pierce, author
of: http://www.ebooks-made-easy.com/underoath.htm
'The Order Trapper Technique: How To Immediately
Save Lost Sales... And Boost Your Profits Right Now!'
We love this strategy and are very surprised that it’s not
being used by many internet marketers.
Generally sites will have a pop up on exit when visitors
leave the site without hitting the Order Page. Pop up
subscription boxes have been proven to increase opt-in
subscriptions to ezines... so...
...we wondered ...could it also increase sales?
If someone is ready to order or they are setting on the
fence and undecided, what do you do if they click thru to
the Order Page, but decide to back out?
Is there a way... one more chance you could get to try and
have them follow through with the order?
YES!
We tested a pop up on our Order Page for our Swing Trading
eBook. This pop up only comes up if they don’t click the
link that would go to the ClickBank order form. So if
they hit back, clicked another link or closed the
browser. This pop up comes up.
The headline simply says 'Oh No! ...Changed Your Mind?'
See the pop up by visiting this Order Page and then leaving:
www.rapidfireswingtrading.com/swing-trading/ordernow.html
This pop up box simply restates our money back guarantee.
However, to our shock and surprise, by testing a separate
link on this pop up box, 1 of 4 leaving the site purchased.
Our other test included a pop up box with a $10 discount.
This is possibly the most dynamic and effective order
trapping, sales saver we’ve ever used.
It was so effective we now use it as a standard delayed
pop up on our site.
See the delayed pop up by visiting the main eBook site at:
www.rapidfireswingtrading.com/swing-trading
The pop up is
on a 30 second delay so be sure you wait for it.
While this is now being used from the main page, when used,
from the order page, 2 out of 4 visitors that were leaving
without ordering would click and order from the pop up.
Incredible!
Now, from the main website page, this one simple delayed
pop up has increased the weekly sales by 57%
Awesome!
Well, ask yourself, how many visitors do you think hit your
Order Page but back out?
Finding out is easy. Just add a traffic tracking code
(we use WebTrends Line) to your order page to see how many
visitors actually reach your order page.
Compare the unique clicks to your order page each week
versus your actual sales for each week and see how many
potential buyers you are losing.
On your pop up you can use a different order link, or coded
link so you can see how many extra sales you are getting
from this simple pop up.
Just imagine what you can offer those who make it to your
Order Page but for some reason decide to leave the page.
This is your last chances to dance with them and pile it
all on. Do you some last ditch free bonuses you can offer?
How about a deeper special discounted price?
Anything, that’s compelling, original and has true value
that you have held out on should be offered hard and
fast... right then and there.
This is your chances to 'trap the order', and not have them
bail out but follow through with the purchase.
Now of course, you must have everything else on your site
in line. That means you have to have:
-1-> An incredibly strong product to deliver.
-2-> Strong, compelling, solid, hard hitting website copy.
-3-> An irresistible over the top guarantee.
-4-> Original, explosive bonuses with true value.
These 4 items must be in place if you plan to effectively
use the 'Order Trapper Technique'.
Stephen Pierce introduced the shocking truth about Internet
Marketing - the surest way to make money with any product,
from anywhere at anytime... 100% guaranteed!
