Super Easy Affiliate Marketing For Newbies

Since I've gotten a lot out of this forum, I'm gonna share a super easy affiliate marketing technique that I've been using to make the easiest money ever!

Some of you may know this technique but for those that don't or are having trouble getting started earning online, this is probably the easiest way to get started. This isn't going to get you rich, but it will get you started.

Step 1.

Peruse jvnotifypro.com for upcoming ebook launches. Find one that is being put out by a well-known marketer. I recently did this with Google Assassin because I knew the product would be hyped to death and there would be people searching for information on this product.

Step 2.

Go to Ebay and set up a Classified Ad with the product name as the title. To set up a classified ad, when selecting a category, choose Everything Else --> Information Products --> How-To Guides --> Self Employment

Once you do this, you will have the option to choose a Selling Format. Choose Classified Ad.

Step 3.

In another browser, go back to jvnotifypro and find the jv link for the product you want to promote. On this page, the author will give jv partners the information they need for the upcoming launch and most of the time will give a sneak peak at the sales page and graphics.

Step 4.

Copy the headline and any parts of the sales page that catches your attention and paste it into your Ebay Classified Ad along with any images the author provides (or just copy the images and write your own copy). Do not copy the whole sales page, people will not read the whole thing. Give them enough to get excited and then say "For More Information Click The Link Below"

Step 5.

Hyperlink the name of product with your affiliate link.

Step 6.

This is the important part.
Choose the upgrade option for Homepage Featured. This will put your ad on the front page of Ebay in their Featured Items listing. This will get you maximum exposure and a lot of views to your ad.

I usually let my ads run for 30 days which costs $10, plus do a Homepage Featured for $40. So in total I pay $50 for a 30 day featured ad. I have never once made less than 3 times my money for less than 5 minutes work.

For the Google Assassin launch, I made $700 recurring just from this technique.

Dovetailing on the list-building technique that Ruck has talked about on his blog, you can put your opt-in form right on your Ebay Classified Ad and if you offer a free bonus for those that buy through your link, you will get subscribers and a possible sale all in one. Killing two birds with one stone.

Hope that helps.

wow thanks for that information. Never heard of jvnotifypro.com, i think im going to try it out.

Does ebay classified allow payment via paypal?

Edit: where do i find upcoming ebook launches on that site?

Yes. But this technique doesn't require anyone to pay you directly. You just put up your Clickbank affiliate link and they buy through the main sales page. CB then pays you.

This technique is "set it, and forget it".

On the front page, toward the middle, its says Joint Venture Announcements.

Nice one. I signed up for that site and I also found this one http://www.nextbiglaunch.info/ . Thanks for sharing this method.

Funny. I just detailed the same method I use month in and month out for aggressive list building. Just another person that will agree that the method is killer. I got to ask why aren't you building a list to receive the link?

I am. At the bottom of the post I even mentioned your blog and technique.

how fast do you get a sale?

It cycles. You usually get a ton of visits the first few days (and thats when sales occur), then nothing for a while, then a time about half way through that gets more traffic, then slows down again, then more traffic at the end.

Ahh you didn't have to do that, but thanks for the plug man. This also works outside of Internet Marketing niches as well. I am sure you know that, and I think I screwed myself on the conference the other night when I slipped and the niche was spoken out loud.

Never really tried preselling hot upcoming products though, you gave me tons of ideas

I've been doing this for a while and was a bit pissed about Project Quick Cash - he tells you to promote launches. It works well - easy money.

OMG! One last little bonus about this technique that I forgot to mention...

With product launches, the name of the product is usually new, so there most likely has never been any searches for that term. If you can get going on a campaign early enough, and title the Classified Ad the name of the product, you will almost instantaneously get 1st page Google rankings due to the fact that Ebay, in general, gets top Google placements.

thanks for the info, i'll try that out.

are there any paydotcom-ers at jvnotifypro?

It's posts like this one and Ruck's 'Zero to Hero' blog article that give me a reason to visit BHW on a regular basis. Thank you pdaguy.

Great thread! I gave it a try

Unfortunately, I couldn't find the 'Homepage Featured' option, only 'Gallery Featured' was visible for me. Perhaps this is only available when you reach a certain feedback score?

^ yeah me too...just "gallery featured"

On the third page, for me at least, it says:

Maximize your listing's visibility
Featured Plus! ($19.95)

Showcase your listing in the Featured area of search results


Gallery Featured ($19.95)

Showcase your item in search results with an enlarged picture and close up views. Free Gallery Picture included.

Add pictures to make your items more successful and to take advantage of features like Gallery Picture, Gallery Plus, and Gallery Featured.


Home Page Featured ($39.95)

Get maximum exposure! Appear in our Featured area and your item is likely to appear on eBay's Home page.

maybe it's because we chose "Self Help" instead of Self Employment...I dunno

Yes,

Only certain categories allow classifieds which you can view here.

Also I am trying to teach my blog readers some fundamental but aggressive list building tactics so I will share something here that I did not share there. Given the nature of the company I feel ok sharing this here although I am upfront and honest about who I am, this could potentially bite me in the ass. I never really was one for giving a shit what people thought about me, so I hope you will benefit greatly from this technique.

If you do happen to participate in the upcoming launches with a featured ad, you can do everything pdaguy and I have said, however if you REALLY want to build a loyal list then try this.

*NOTE* This is blackhat and I take no responsibility for anyone's actions. I will not openly express the exact products and product owners I have done this too, but I will provide the method in it's entirety so you know exactly how to build a list that will respond to you.

When you create the ad and have your optin form on it, be really authoritative and confident and please KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOUR TALKING ABOUT. Tell the people do not even buy the upcoming product that you have certain means of obtaining it freely and your only letting in a select amount of people to get the product free. Stress the amount that you are saving them and that this won't be available for long.

Stress how big the product is going to be and most definitely stress what the price is going to be (if you know this). I shit you not when I say that in those few weeks that you start pulling search engine traffic and newbie marketers start to flood ebay looking for information you will build a massive list depending on the popularity of the upcoming product. Then you simply run the ad again for another 30 days after the launch letting people know the same thing.

Now where you will make your money for LIFE is "piggybacking" products like this all thru the year and setting up lists for each one. You could simply change up your autoresponder and easily funnel them into the same list though, which is what I do. I do this because I am sharing the same thing and I am piggybacking upcoming launches with the premise that people will get it free.

And they do

This forum along with techniques and other forums, I have gotten every product for free, or I simply buy it and share it, easy as that. The killer money comes in on like every other mailing. You will then email list (I would suggest cloaked urls here peeps) about a hot product on the market place that is a good converter. Send them the link and tell them to check it and that you don't think you will be able to get this one for free. You going to rely on the salespages to do your selling here so it's imperative you pick out kickass products.

Consistency And Domination

The ongoing tactic ties in like this. Build list #1 with the idea your going to go thru leaps and bounds and deliver the product on "the downlow" to a select group of people that optin. They have to optin because when it launches they only have a certain amount of time to get it free

Butter them up with the freebie and then stress about a week later on a hot product you can not obtain. The salespage will determine your sales, but you have already built this list and will gather enough sales to fund more ads for more products. Funnel them into this blackhat giveaway list and have your autoresponder hitting them with the same auto sequence as the first list.

Then all you do after each payday is set aside more budget on sales from the second list when you first list is probably on third mailing for a product which can give you even more sales. That's the consistency, then of course every now and then find a product for free here or somewhere else and broadcast it free to your list so that they stay happy.

I can't begin to explain how effective this is. Each launch you just build a new subscriber list in a 60 day period. If your quick and got your shit organized, you can literally piggyback the shit out of 15-20 products at a time.

Do it...I do
