Basics 2: Finding Products for Internet Marketing

1 You could promote a physical product that you can make or buy for significantly less than your retail price. Find out how to use eBay effectively by studying a book such as "The eBay Business Handbook" by Robert Pugh.

2 Alternatively, make a deal with a local shop to promote their most desirable product on the internet for a significant percentage. You could start with a "blog" (they're free from blogger.com) although a proper website generally looks more professional, and image is everything.

3 Or go to a site like clickbank, choose an ebook (on a subject that you know about) which is backed up by compelling advertising copy (this is all available free of charge), and then promote it. No postage or packaging costs are involved and you receive a commission for each sale - this is called "Affiliate Marketing".

4 If you have the knowledge and the confidence, you can write your own eBook. Convert it into a PDF file which your customers can download. Perhaps do one that you give away for free and make a second ebook available for sale. Get affiliates to sell it for you.

5 Watch Mike Dillard's free videos, and then buy his indispensable "MAGNETIC SPONSORING" for less than the price of a tank of petrol. The (virtual) package comes with its own training, marketing system and back office. To get anywhere in marketing yourself, you'll need to read it anyway, so you may as well promote it (and you can get it from here on the "Magnetic" page) .

6 When you purchase a high-end product such as "YourNetBiz", you'll find that the package includes hundreds of eBooks on many subjects, to which you have the rights and which you can sell, keeping all the revenue. Many of them are very useful marketing resources which you will want to use yourself.

7 This one's for serious marketers only: go straight to the top tier and sign up to a high-end outfit such as "My Internet Business". Since the asking price is substantial, only committed customers will be interested, but a single sale will put a lot of money in your pocket. Follow-up emails and calls are all done for you, the back office is stuffed with video tutorials, eBooks and valuable information and the sales pages are slick.
