Okay, that may sound a little contradictory, but if you keep reading for a minute, you will find out why this could be one of the best Internet Marketing ideas you will ever try.

 

You have heard of Viral Marketing, yeah? Well did you know that viral marketing is one of the best ways for you to sell a product or service?

 

Why? Because thanks to the way that viral marketing works, you do not need to have a big list, or a lot of money to put into an advertising campaign – but you can still have a huge impact.

 

Here are 5 tips that will help you to make a huge ROI (Return on Investment) from giving away a free ebook.

 

1. Write a short ebook (report) about how to get the most out of an affiliate product that you’re promoting. Or choose another subject that fits a particular product.

 

Put the link to the product inside the ebook. Make sure that the information in your ebook is both interesting and valuable to the reader.

 

2. Contact the person whose affiliate product you are going to be promoting and offer it to him/her to give away to his list.

 

3. Contact newsletter publishers and offer to let them give the ebook away to members of their lists. (Of course, you are going to send everyone to your squeeze page, right?)

 

4. Put the link to your squeeze page at the bottom of your email signature and on your signature at forums, blogs you post on, etc.

 

5. Set up JV partnerships with other people who are promoting similar – but not competing products or services and give them the chance to give away your ebook.

 

Here are some other ideas to keep in mind when writing your ebook so that it is perceived as valuable by your target audience and your JV partners.

 

Use screenshots, graphics or photos so you are not only telling your readers “what” to do, but they can see “how” to do it also.

 

If you are not a writer, you can hire someone else to ghostwrite it for you. (Just a hint, do not only go for the cheapest price – otherwise you may as well write it yourself, because the quality will probably be about the same.)

 

Have someone go through it to check for grammar and spelling mistakes.

 

Read it out loud to check that it makes sense and flows smoothly.

 

If you are handy with graphics editing software, create a cover for your ebook. People will see it as more valuable if it looks like a “real” book. If you are not so handy, you can always outsource that.

 

People do not want to read 50 or 60 page reports – everyone is pressed for time. Keep your ebook short – between 12 and 18 pages is just about ideal. Get rid of the fluff and cut right to the heart of the information that you are giving away.

 

Put the link to your affiliate product in a several different places throughout the book. You never know what one idea is going to spark someone’s interest or overcome their last objection and be the deciding factor in them buying your affiliate product.

 

Because your ebook is going viral and will get passed around in ways you never imagined, put a signup box or link to your squeeze page in the book, to grab new subscribers.

 

 

As you can see, sometimes giving something of value away for free is one of the best ways for you to make money.

 

This is one of the best-kept secrets of successful affiliate marketers. Follow it, and you’ll soon see your success on the rise as well.
