Affiliate Marketing: Creating A Free Report Series
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008Dear Reader and Friend
I’m going to keep this step very simple and straight to the point, but remember, this step is of utmost importance to your affiliate success. I will go as far as saying that if you create a responsive Opt-In list following these steps, 75% of your work is done for you already. That goes for anything you’re doing online.
Your free report will be promoting the first affiliate program you chose from step 1. It should be priced around $40 or $50. And pay you around $20 to $25 per sale.
Creating your free report is no science. Either find 5 articles on your subject that you’re allowed to use, or create 5 articles yourself. The articles don’t have to be long. You can write around 500 words. Then send them out to your prospects over 5 days using your autoresponder. Make sure these reports are full of useful information. Don’t write just blatant advertising. You do however get a chance to advertise to them directly later.
How I create autoresponder series is by writing 5 to 10 articles on the topic the affiliate program I’m promoting is on. For instance, if I were writing a report on search engine ranking, I would create the following articles.
1. The Tools Of The Search Engine Specialist
2. Meta Data, Yes Or No?
3. How Mini Sites Can Generate Thousands In
Extra Visitors
4. Getting Listed In Yahoo! The Easy Way
5. Creating Keywords Relevant To Your Site
6. Search Engine Ranking On A Budget
7. The Biggest Search Engine Myths
And so on..
Everyone can write, I don’t care what you say. Keeping it simple is the best way to go.
Be dauntless by the task ahead of you otherwise you will delay doing anything at all.
Another tip I have for writing articles is to jot down points, and use those points to
build your article. For instance, when writing “How Mini Sites Can Generate Thousands In Extra Visitors”, I would jot down points like this.
* Choosing A Domain Name
* Where to find Cheap Web Hosting
* How to use Keywords Throughout The Web Site
* Submitting To Search Engines
* Tracking Hits
* Doing This All Over Again
I would then write 100 to 200 words per point and you are all set up!, there’s your first article/report for you to use with your customers.
Now when sending out your free report with your autoresponder, it should be set up something like this.
When the person signs up, he get part 1, then for the next 4 days he gets parts 2, 3, 4 and 5. In these messages, you will get the chance to advertise to them in the first and last sections of your message. Here I show you an example of an autoresponder message you can send out
