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

I already discussed with you my disappointment about eBay banning Digital Products. Since March 2008, all of us have shrived to come out with new ideas,  loopholes, and we have been experimenting hoping to find out the perfect idea.

In this effort John Thornhill from “PlanetSMS” emerges as a clear cut winner!

What about turning your eBooks into physical books?

If the thought has never crossed your mind you should look at multiple advantages of converting your eBooks to physical books:

• You gain more credibility. Yes, as a book author you instantly gain more credibility as you are seen as an expert.
• You get more exposure. Your book can be seen on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, you cannot get better than that.
• You have another product to sell on eBay. With the current eBay rules you cannot sell eBooks as digitally delivered items but you can sell them as physical products.
• You can do this for your own product or for and PLRs which is sitting and waiting on your hard drive
• You have another way to generate traffic and affiliate income. You can add links and affiliate links in your physical book, just as you would in your eBook.
• You have another autopilot source of income as John’s system is 100% automated

If you think that is hard to create a physical book, and publishing it is even harder, think again.

John has created a video series showing you how you can turn an eBook you have rights to into a book in under an hour. This is amazing, isn’t it?

And John figured a way to sell via online bookstores such as Amazon, this is really the worlds biggest online book store, you face an enormous exposure, you cannot get better then being an author on Amazon.

And the beauty is, when a book is sold they are printed and distributed automatically.

Trust me, you will be very busy to spend money an automated system produces for you.
Good luck to you, and read to find out more:
