Email Marketing

So... You have no money, very little time, and no experience to get you started... No worries! This is how everyone starts out, and then they become a success... Just like you're going to be! So, how do you do it without any money, experience, time, or a product to sell?

My answer: 'Affiliate Marketing'

You don't need your own product, website or any money at all to get you started at this kind of home based business... You sell other peoples products. That's exactly what Affiliate Marketing is!

I've put what you have to do in steps, so you don't get confused... Follow them exactly how they are (or you can add something to it, to make even more money). Enjoy!

Step 1. People need to pay you, sign up for Clickbank and Paypal, those are the two most popular ones internet marketers use as a payment process.

Step 2. Now you need to pick your "Niche", a niche is something that interests you and can be very profitable. Cars would be a good niche topic if you're interested in them, even the topic 'Internet Marketing' (the niche I have chosen) is great, but the downside is the competition. You may want to see what people are interested in these days by going on to Overture and looking at what people are searching for.

Step 2. After signing up with ClickBank, you may have already noticed, there is something called 'The ClickBank Marketplace' (there's a link near the top of the page saying "Marketplace"). Now search for something that is related to your niche, or just type in the niche itself. So if you picked "Cars" as your niche, go ahead... type in cars and see what comes up. After you have enough affiliate programs to promote, you're ready for the next step.

Step 3. Now you're ready to promote your products. Sign up for programs like ListJoe, Your Lucky List, The List Machine, ListDotCom, and Thunder List. They are all great, because they allow you to send free emails to everyone... About anything! You can even promote the affiliate program of your choice (in fact that's what most people do). So you got some ways to promote your affiliate products, let me cover the rest... Free Advertising Blog, blogs have lots of traffic, especially that one! It's free to join and you can post your blog post (or ad) to millions. T-2000 Ultra, again, this is free to join and targeted people in the buying mood (meaning people who are interested in your niche and who are in the mood to buy) will view your ad so they can have their ad being placed on that site.

That just about covers it... Affiliate marketing is easy to understand, and makes loads of profit (since the total you're spending is zero). So go out there and give it a go... I am sure it will work for you!

ListJoe (unlike the rest) allows you to send an email to more people simply by reading emails sent from other members and clicking on links which allow you to earn credits (from 5-15 I think it is). But not only that, ListJoe gives you 200 starting credits. And if one credit equals one person you're aloud to email... You can email 200 people as soon as you sign up for the program. So you can absolutely be sure that if you send an email to 1000 people... 1000 people will view your webpage. And if you combine that with the information I gave you about the best day to send an email (Friday would be the best day to send your email), you'll have a tremendous competitive edge!

So simply click here now if you want that competitive edge I was talking about before.

Let me tell you why the email programs like Your Lucky List and The List Machine are runners up... They all have a random matrix, a random matrix is sort of like a bonus to your downline (downline meaning the main people you email). Sometimes your random matrix is high, and sometimes it's low. And it changes either weekly or daily. I suggest that if you decide to use any of those programs with a random matrix... Send the emails on a Thursday, since people who subscribe to programs like those usually get a lot of emails in their inbox... Sending the email on Thursday will increase your chances of your email getting read.

* Don't forget to run the email you're about to send through a filter... Test it, see whether it'll get through or not... If not you may have to put a * between the word(s) that make the filter think it's just junk mail.

Free Advertising Blog - Blogs are generally high traffic, and so this marketer had a great idea of a blog where everyone can post their own adverts. This was (and still is) a great idea, it's one of the most visited sites on the internet today. Thousands of people view your ad on the blog and there's a possibility that only 10% will click on the link and 10% will purchase the product. But that's still great (even with a $9 product!) Do you see how powerful this blog can be to your affiliate program promotion?

T-2000 Ultra - This is a system based on you promoting the system. It's kind of hard to explain (their website would do a better job than me at explaining their system), But I'll try my best. Once you get someone onto the page, they decide to sign up, and the sign up process is a bit complicated (it's where your ad(s) are). The person who wants to join needs to click on the ads and wait about 20 seconds before a code appears, and while that 20 seconds passes they take a look at your site that you're promoting. As I said it's really hard to explain.

When you send your email is just as important as what is in the email. Tests have shown that one day of the week gets drastically higher sales while another day gets the most clicks. One commonly believed piece of Internet marketing folklore says that the best day to send out email is Wednesday. This is false. There is one day of the week that consistently out-pulls the worst day by 89%, and outperforms all other days by at least 23%.

Summarized Results:

· Emails sent on a Friday result in at least 23% more sales than emails that are sent out on any other day; Friday emails out-pull the worst day (Wednesday!) by 89%.

· Emails sent out on a Tuesday get the worst percentage of clicks (or views).

· Wednesday emails get the worst sales.

· Thursday is the best day to send emails to get raw clicks.

Imagine the cumulative earnings you will generate by applying this information to your online business. Combine this with the fact that many still believe the myth that Wednesday is the best day of the week to send email and this information alone will give you a tremendous competitive edge.
