Just want to let you know why somebody may be interested in giveaways:

• To increase the opt-in list – the money is in the list, we already know this, it is not a cliché, it is the soul of Internet Marketing, you want to be successful you need a list
• To download more Digital products they can use to market and/or to learn more. The truth of the matter is that “being a Guru” is a misconception, some people knows more then others, but nobody knows everything, and the learning process never stops because the internet is growing so rapidly, if you stop learning you are out of the loop in 6-10 month
• To make money. This is the purpose of this post, I’ll show you how.

Well, not all giveaways are born equal, but it is enough to look at the conditions of participation and you will find out which are good giveaways.

This is the right path of participating to Giveaways:

• You have to have a Digital Product to offer for Free, this can be an eBook, a Report, a Video, an interview, webinar, and my favorites are an e-course or a Report
• You participate to a giveaway in which you offer your free Digital Product, you download all the goodies from the giveaway and store them in a folder. Using my experience, 60% of the gifts have a real value, help me to learn more but also I can use them as free gifts in other giveaway which will come along, 30% have a medium value, 10% I am not interested in (just to be polite)!  From that 60% I select carefully around 10 very good products with Master Resell Rights, and I keep them, I can use them as free gifts or as OTO or I can sell them
• When you create your giveaway gift, you will add an OTO (One Time Offer).  You chose a product with real value, related with your gift, but more informative then yout gift. Only this way a person that was interested in your initial offer will be interested in your OTO. The OTO will have a decent price on it and, sure, some people will take it, some will pass it but if you have a big list you will make a profit
• If you don’t add an OTO to your gift, you are leaving money on the table, but you increase your list and in future you can send other offers.

In previous post I gave you an example of a good giveaway, if you didn’t decided to be a contributor, at list try to be a member and download all the goodies:

If you are a beginner, the part which is missing is probably the OTO, how to create one, how to use it properly, how to increase the chance your OTO to be picked up.

I’ll help you with OTO learning curve, offering a free lifetime membership from where you can pick up a lot of knowledge about how to create an OTO:

And I’ll let you know when other good giveaway will surface.

Until the next time, all the best
