| In the preceding chapters, we have examined all of the major elements of a successful promotion campaign. If you use only the tools presented, you are assured of success. For those of you who wish to leave nothing to chance and wish to go the 'extra mile' we are presenting some extra rocket booster fuel in this chapter. These are programs and resources that did not easily lend themselves to classification and yet that deserve to be included for the extra impetus that they can lend your campaign. |
| The Best Compendium or 'Kitchen Sink' site |
| "What on earth is a 'Compendium' or 'Kitchen Sink' site?" I hear you say! |
| These are both terms to describe sites that otherwise defy description because of the all-encompassing nature of their content. They offer everything but proverbial 'kitchen sink'! |
| Ad-Universe, has over the last few months become my most trusted research tool and information source in all matters relating to marketing on the Internet and has helped immensely in the preparation of this manual. I strongly urge you to add this one to your arsenal. |
| Banner Exchanges: They're FREE so why not use them? |
| We talked earlier about how fast things change on the Internet. As little as a year ago, no self-respecting Internet marketer would have been without his banner spread throughout multiple networks, fervently believing that his prospects would be mesmerized by the power of his banner and be forced to click through..... |
| Of course, like so many other unrealistic pipe dreams, it all came crumbling down. So much so, in fact, that once almighty giants of the banner advertising realm like AllAdvantage went out of business. |
| That said, why not use them to your advantage. We use exclusively two exchanges and only post banners on high-traffic pages where we do not mind if we lose a prospect or two. These are specifically our FFA and Classified pages. |
| Just ReWard Banner Exchange - This is our own high traffic banner exchange. All of our sites and pages where the banners are shown are targeted only at online marketers. Therefore, this is also your target audience. As a Ten Steps member, we will give a 1:1 ratio, which means that a banner shown on any of your sites or pages will result in your banner being shown once somewhere else on the network. Many of the PRO programs, especially the FFA and Classifieds allow you to post your own banner. Simply paste in the code that you will find on the site once you set up your account. |
| BannersGoMLM - Part of the My-Success Center umbrella business. This is one of the best banner exchanges because of its unusual format and the ability to earn banner credits based on the performance of your downline. They also provide links to places where you can easily design your own banners for their system. |
| Two More Ways to Get Extra Hits to your Page(s) |
| EzyTraffic - How many times do you start your browser in a day, a week, a month? Now you can get a new visitor to your site or program page every time you start your browser. You also get 10% bonus showings for all of your downline activity. This is truly a no-pain way to get extra hits. |
| ExitExchange - For this one you need to have a page where you have access to the HTML code itself since you have to insert some code between the body and HTML tags. Once this is done, every time that a visitor leaves that page, a new window opens on their browser with an advertisers site. At the same time, you have earned a credit to have your chosen page appear elsewhere. Again, you can earn credit for downline activity. |
