Turn Freebies into Cash System - Lesson 1

Turn Freebies into Cash System - Lesson 1

As internet marketing is still relatively new, it is developing very quickly and consistently and with more and more people coming into the market it has become more and more necessary to do many different tasks in a professional manner to be successful online.

The days are gone when you could just throw together a few web sites with some affiliate links or a web page with Google AdSense and watch the money roll in. Today you need to do more than slap a few sites together based on a little bit of niche research and keyword analysis.

To be successful on line you need to have a deep understanding of the many different aspects that make up an internet business.

You need to truly understand niche and Keyword research so that you can drill down and pick the right niche that suits you, together with effective keywords to match, without this understanding you will fail before you start.

You also need your web pages looking like they are professionally designed with good graphics, the need for audio and video is also increasing.

The copywriting on your squeeze pages, sales pages and presale pages must be spot on.

You must follow up your list consistently with professionally written persuasive e-mails.

You must have skills in Search engine optimization and other traffic generation techniques and the list goes on.

This has created the need for more and more specialized information and of course when there is a hole in any market it is quickly filled.

This void attracted the attention of the Guru’s and self proclaimed Guru’s in each of these fields to produce courses and information products to satisfy the need and as more experts have come into each of the specialized markets the competition has increased.

This has lead to the marketing strategy of giving away enough quality information or product to build their prospects confidence and trust in them before they hit them with the hard sell.
It has now resulted in the guru’s giving more and more away just to compete with each other.

Now because of this, I have found with all these freebie’s that the information now overlaps, and in some cases a Guru will be giving something away that another is selling. So when it is put together you end up with all the information, software and tools that you need to succeed in making money online.

As I mentioned earlier I was initially going to just list the freebies on a few pages but with the sheer number of freebies I have gathered and the information contained within, it would lead any person to total confusion.

So in the interests of getting you the quality information and tools that will get your internet business up and running as quickly as possible, I decided to compile this guide with only the best information from well known and highly regarded guru’s that have a proven track record. I have then listed certain pieces of information from each freebie for you to read in a precise manner.

This has created a step by step guide for you to follow that will help you to make money through affiliate marketing in the quickest possible time.

I know some of you maybe saying that you could hire people to do most of the work for you, in fact it is a very smart business decision to do so and this is one of the aims of this guide to get you to that point.

Although reality is, that the majority of people starting an internet business or working hard to ramp one up, do not have many thousands of dollars to put into their business upfront.

They have to do the hard yards themselves till they have the experience, confidence and cash flow to explore outsourcing. Some of you may wish and be in a position to outsource some aspects that they just do not like doing or can not get their heads around but this will be different for everyone and a decision and choice they can make for themselves.

Before we get stuck into it there are a few points I must cover that will help you to get the best from this guide.

1. You will find as I have found, that the free information and tools on most subjects do overlap, causing me at times to repeat myself, for example, niche marketing aligns and overlaps with Keyword research and tools as well as Search engine optimization (SEO), research and tools.

You will notice that I mention SEO in the niche section and vis versa, it will seem that I will be repeating myself and at times I will be, as this is the nature of the freebie beast.

Now, the important point about all this is that it also presents an excellent opportunity, as re-reading this information more than once will help you make finer distinctions.

This is a critical point as a deep understanding in the concepts and tools of the internet marketing game is critical for you to be able to implement the strategies that you learn effectively.

I have also found that learning this business through freebies, dramatically helps to efficiently turn your learning curve into profit because you get more than one perspective on most subjects, for example, one guru may explain something one way but it is not until you read it again from another guru’s perspective that has explained it in a slightly different manner using different examples, that the penny truly drops.

I cannot press on this point enough if you want to truly maximize your online business success.

2. You will find, if you have not already found, Internet marketing covers a large number of varied topics that require certain knowledge and disciplines that you may struggle with for example, You maybe a natural with the written word but not very tech savvy.

Everyone is different, where one will devour a subject and breeze through, others will not. So because of this fact and that I care about your success, I want you to be consistently aware of your attitude and your state of mind. Don’t let yourself get bogged down on subjects that do not interest you or you just can’t get your head around as this will lead to a loss of motivation and will be immensely destructive to your online business goals.

I have searched high and low and tested many products and tools to find the best freebies and then to finally combine them to give the full picture of a profitable strategy that is very easy to follow and implement, spending a minimal amount of money or without spending any money at all. While freebies are great I do encourage you to stay conscious of your progress.

In the interests of keeping the momentum going you will find it a huge benefit to your progress by seeking further assistance on those particular subjects that slow you down mentally and physically.

Some of you may find this through outsourcing or some of you may choose to get further help from a particular Guru that specializes in the area that you are struggling with and some of you will just breeze through the whole lot on your own.

It is entirely up to you and at your discretion. As I said before everyone is different and have different needs and wants, This is one of the reasons why this guide is so good as it gives you all the alternatives you need to make the decisions that best suits your needs, while at the same time, giving you all that you need.

Remember to stay conscious of your state of mind and don’t let yourself bog down.

3. I have also taken the assumption of little or no knowledge on the part of the reader, if there are sections that you know about then that’s great as that step will be easy for you and further cement the concepts in your mind some more.

4. Please remember while reading and watching the freebies, most have a sales message in them just be aware and don’t get annoyed with this otherwise you will miss the message that the freebie holds.

Attitude, Mindset and Motivation

At this point it is a good time to mention attitude, mindset and motivation. You are probably fully motivated right now and ready to take on the internet world but how do we harness this enthusiasm and carry it through when times get tough and doubt sets in.

This aspect is very important to success on the internet as you will be on your own most of the time and it will be up to you to keep your mind in the right place everyday so that you progress efficiently and affectively toward your goals.

A couple of books I recommend that you read, if you have not done so already is “Think and Grow Rich’ by Napoleon Hill and “The Science Of Getting Rich’ By Wallace D Wattles. Both these are timeless classics that explain the mindset and attitudes that are necessary to succeed they have withstood the test of time and are consistently mentioned by people with rags to riches stories as being fundamental in there journey to success.

I know you are itching to jump right into making money and this is good, I don’t want to dampen your eagerness but one of the biggest reasons why people fail in the internet marketing game is that they do not treat it like a real business, they don’t do what all good successful businesses do and that is to plan, yes create a business plan.

What This Guide Is Going To Show You And How

In this guide I will show you how to make money online through affiliate marketing.

There are many tasks and disciplines required in selecting and promoting an affiliate product successfully. Each of these tasks and disciplines have two distinct aspects to this

They are:

• Building your knowledge and understanding of each of the tasks and disciplines involved in affiliate marketing.

• How to go about implementing this knowledge, which is the hands on technical side.

My aim has been to make this guide as simple and easy to follow as possible. I will go through each task separately, guiding you through the appropriate links to the freebies that will first increase your knowledge and understanding, followed by the ‘how to’ so that you can implement the knowledge. I will also give you links to free software, when appropriate, that will help you with the implementation.

At times you will find some parts overlap, for example, some aspects that you will learn in the keyword research section you will also use in the traffic generation section, so I will just refer you back to that section when it is appropriate.

I will also give you links when appropriate to some video tutorials on parts that maybe a little more technical to help assist you in the implementation.

At first it may all seem a little confusing but stick with it as it will come clear as you progress and all of the pieces of the puzzle come together.

Lets get started.
