How many times do you hear marketers say, "I'd love to promote my opportunity, but I don't have the money?"
Well I'm taking away that excuse. There are 4 surefire methods of building any business that won't cost you a red cent.
All work and all have a proven track record.
If you've followed my writings for any length of time, you know my favorite is writing and submitting articles. That's the date I came to the dance with and I'd never leave her.
The second method of free promotion is brandable books and reports. It doesn't matter if they're free or fee, plenty of marketers will help promote your links, if you give them enough of an incentive.
Get a few heavy traffic sites or high circulation ezines giving away your books and your link will spread like wildfire.
The third method of free promotion is extremely powerful and can build any business fast. It's our old friend the Joint Venture. I don't care who you are or how big your advertising budget is, you can't reach even a percentage of your market by your own efforts.
That's where the Joint Venture comes in. By helping other marketers profit from promoting your offers, your links will spread fast and you'll reach prospects that would never see your offer any other way.
Combine your Joint Venture offer with your brandable books and your articles and you've got a powerful promotional campaign that money couldn't buy.
The fourth method of free promotion is creating your own affiliate program. Having hundred or thousands of marketers promoting your products is an extremely powerful marketing method.
The first three methods of free promotion are 100% free, but in order to run an affiliate program there is usually a one time fee. Depending on the merchant account you use, you can usually set up an affiliate program for as little as $50.
Pay your $50 once and your program can be working for free for years to come.
So the next time you hear someone say they can't afford to promote their offer, what they are really saying is they haven't learned how to harness the power of free promotion.
