making-money-online-giving-free-ebookHave you notice how hard it is to try and sell to someone directly without giving them something first? We all know that writing pre-sale letter work quite well but here is an even better idea for any affiliate marketer or someone who is selling their own eBook.

You are going to learn how you can sell affiliate product or your product a lot more successfully by the time you finish reading this. Please stop reading now if you do not want to make more sales.

The method

You are basically going to give people a free eBook, which will contain beneficial content. You will have your affiliate link inside the eBook. Read on to learn how to do this successfully because most WILL do it wrong. I am going to assume you already know how to do research to find the best products to sell and might even have your own.

1. Create the eBook.

  • Allow distribution without changes.
  • Give valuable content and no hard selling.
  • eBook content matches what you are selling.
  • Hyper-link relevant words.
  • Should be around 7 pages only.
  • Pre-sell your product at the end.

You are basically going to give them a valuable eBook with a pre-sell in it offering them something that will help them even further. You want the eBook to be short and sweet :wink:

2. Distribute the eBook.

This is the sweet part :mrgreen: There are many ways to do this but my favorite is using Craigslist currently.

  1. Use Craigslist. Put your ads in the ‘small biz area‘ and be sure to mention FREE to them.
  2. Article Marketing. This work EXTREMELY well if you just give it to them and do not require them to give their email. After writing 20 articles you will get some sales.
  3. Use forums. This is a little more difficult without looking a little spammy but it is best to offer it to them in your signature. You could do a post on it but I think you should read their TOS before doing that.
  4. Use Pay Per Click. I love using this method because your traffic is very targeted and you are likely to have a high conversion rate :grin: Be sure to mention ‘free‘ in your ads — However, you do not want to attract tire-kicker, so please filter out the ‘free‘ keyword in your campaign.
  5. Use your blog. I do not do this because I do not like those kind of posting myself but it does work very well if you have a large group of fans and readers.

Does this work?

You bet it does because it worked very well for me. I do not mean to brag but I already made over a little $185 doing this for a Clickbank product in 3 days! :razz: The important thing you must do is too take action and stop reading so much.

Why am I not making any money?

The simple answer why so many people aren’t making money online is because they give up too soon and never try hard enough. They are in it for the money - not for the freedom and not because they are passionate about what they do. I hope that encourage you to find what you love to do because won’t be successful at what you hate to do.

Did you find this post helpful and interesting? Please consider subscribing and stumbling me :mrgreen: Thank you.

    [...]  My method: zip the book into a .zip file, create a pad file for it, and submit it to over 2000 download sites that are pad enabled.

    Great post! I am just working on writing a free report myself, except to promote my new blog, not a clickbank product. Nice work with the $185 in 3 days!

    Thats great Thomas, but I think you should keep it short. Around 20 pages would be cool with LOTS of “meat” and no “nonsense” talks.

    Good luck and thank you :mrgreen:

    Hi Sean - I was kind of curious about this, because from past experience, people including myself don’t always value something they got for free.

    But, I’ve heard that some people have had great success. And $185 in three days is pretty good.

  4. Admin Sean said:

    I agree with you Catherine, but lets use a different situation:

    If I offered someone VERY good and helpful info in the first place, they are very likely to download what I offer them…

    Or

    If someone is really looking forward to something or desperate enough…they will likely download it. There are many people who aren’t Internet MArketer and internet savvy, so you know :wink:

    It work though! (well for me so far).

    I’m not understanding. You’ve made “a little over $185″ in 3 days. First, great work. Second: if you’re giving away your, free ebook, how are you making the dough?

    I think I will try this method in the future. I don’t really have the time to write eBook now.

    I’ll report what’s the traffic like when I write one.

  7. Admin Sean said:

    Bill, did you even read the whole article :roll:
    I made about $185 and I put affiliate link into my “FREE” ebook :wink:

    Marko- You shouldn’t expect lots of traffic doing this, expect money.

    Cool post, this is one of the money making ideas I have been mulling over recently. Sean you keep giving me more work to do by coming up with all these great ideas! This one is on the back burner though as I’ve got all those articles to write :)

    Make sure your valuable content in the pre-sell ebook is not so valuable till they won’t need your product. :twisted:

  10. Nick Bakewell said:

    So, what, you pick an affiliate offer through Clickbank or Copeac and write a short eBook about it / preselling it, distribute the ebook, and watch the money come in?

    Sean,
    I’m glad to hear that this is working for you. I’ve thought about doing this before but I’ve never taken action.

    Great tips Sean. Congrats on your money making. You should expand your topic on how to generate more traffic. Since everything is about traffic, this will help a lot. This will be used in the future (hopefully) !

    Good post, I’ve never tried my luck with giving away eBooks before. This is going to be included in my next roundup. Keep up the good work here. :)

    If you are producing a free report or ebook, it is fine to drop a few affiliate links because the reports are free, so no one can complain.It’s a smart marketing move. :twisted:

    Very true indeed. I suppose there is no such thing as easy money!
