Editors Note.
------------------------------------------------------------
Hello,
Welcome again to a new issue of your "SmartPromotion
Ezine"... and if you're new... it's great to have you here!
Everyone agrees that "building a list" is the nr. 1 priority
to earn a nice income online.
The problem is, most folks don't have the content to
give away in order to build a responsive list.
Until now :-)
Jimmy D. Brown has created a brand new and complete
follow-up system for you, that you can give away.
It's called "Making Offers ... Making Money! ":
http://www.ebooks-made-easy.com/momm
It works very simple...
You just copy and paste the 6 ecourse articles to your
favorite autoresponder and start giving it away.
(If you should need a f'ree autoresponder, without any ads,
you can get one here: http://www.freeautobot.com )
Since this is done from YOUR autoresponder system,
YOU will be the one building the list.
There are several products and services mentioned
inside the eCourse itself. You will be able to insert
YOUR affiliate link for those products.
If any of your subscribers who read the eCourse decide
to buy one of the offers through your link inside, then
you will earn a commission!
You'll also have the opportunity to place an ad at the
top of each of the six lessons to promote anything
you want .
Promote your site. Your newsletter. Your products.
Your favorite affiliate program. A traffic generation
service. Your advertising offers. Or products you
have purchased reprint rights to sell.
Every subscriber who reads any of the six lessons
you are giving away will be exposed to your offer...
and there will be those who buy. More profits for you.
Of course, you can also sell the entire package.
That includes the eCourse itself, the webpage template
and salesletter and the "minisite" page for promoting
the f'ree ecourse giveaway.
In fact, you have MASTER reprint rights. That means
anyone who buys the package from you has the right
to sell the package to others. This is an added bonus
worth $97.00+ by itself.
Go check it out now, while it's still new:

As always... to your online success!

Sponsor Ad
===================================
It's not easy to find great affiliate programs now days.
Especially ones that pay 50% commissions, have
amazing products, pay you every month AND let
you make money from affiliates you refer too!
You'll find all this and more with The ScamFreeZone's
Internet Success Associate Program though. Just go:
http://scamfreezone.com/t.cgi?a=160934&e=/assocs
and sign up for f'ree! You'll get all the tools and copy!
===================================
Smart Promotion Tip
===================================
Here's a tip that will probably go against your natural
instincts of what you should do if your sales are not
what you would like them to be.
The big mistake many people make when sales are low
is to immediately lower their prices.
But before you even consider this option, try adding
more content, more value to the package you already
offer.
In most cases a bad $40 product won't sell at $10,
but a great $40 product could sell as well at $75.
Lowering your price reduces the perceived value of
your product.

Article of the Month

"Unleash the Potential Hidden in your old Ezines"
==> by Harvey Segal
You've heard it said many times.
The number one form of promotion, most Internet marketers
would agree, is to publish your own ezine.
The main reason ?
You can build up a circulation of loyal subscribers, an
opt-in list, who will eventually trust your advice and be
amenable to your product offers.
To achieve this you'll need to provide valuable content
such as articles, tips, resources, tools in every issue.
But what happens to all that useful information once
your issue has been published ?
Usually it's lost - forever.
What a waste because, as you will now see, your
old ezines can prove your number one traffic generator.
The solution ?
First, you need to archive your ezines.
Now some mailing list services will allow you to do
this automatically - but that's the easy way out.
Do you really expect your reader to plough through
countless tiresome web pages entitled, for example,
Volume 1V issue 39 just to get to the good bits ?
No - you are going to have to resist the temptation
of the automatic archive and put in some extra
work but, I promise you, the results will be spectacular.
First, set up each issue of your ezine on its' own
web page. But don't just paste in the text as a straight
copy of the Email version.
Make it an attractive, well formatted page with active
links: add appropriate meta tags. Choose a consistent
style for all issues.
Now for the key item: construct an 'Index' page linking
to every issue and highlighting the top tips or articles
in each one, like a table of contents.
This page will also contain the sign-up instructions.
(Feel free to copy the style I have used for my own
ezine archives).
Your visitors will be delighted that they can easily
scan your best offerings and zoom in directly to the
particular issue.
And now we launch our traffic generating attack:
Submit these archives to the Search Engines. They
will just love those text rich and keyword laden pages.
Use your index page Url in your signature rather than
lengthy sign up instructions.
When you swap ads with other publishers who ask for
a sample just point them to your index page. And
similarly when you submit to an ezine announcement
list which requires a sample.
There should be a page at your site where you describe
your ezine and invite visitors to subscribe. Here's how
to persuade them - provide a link to the index page
showing what they can expect.
Here's my favourite:
As you probably know a great promotion tactic is to
contribute to a discussion group, adding a signature
to your posting so that your expertise will be recognised
and readers will hopefully visit your web site.
Now with the wealth of resources buried in your archives
there will be numerous occasions when they contain
the very answers to a discussion group question.
You can then submit a simple one line posting which
says "I've written an article addressing that topic at www....."
You don't even need a signature !
Your link will take readers right to the appropriate issue,
surrounded by your impressive resources and of course
your product offers.
Your old ezines live on - winning more subscribers and
potential customers day by day...
