7 ways to get free PR

Posted August 30th, 2010. Filed under Business

“The cleverly expressed opposite of any generally accepted idea is worth a fortune to somebody,” said F. Scott Fitzgerald.

But how can you use this principle in your PR to get media attention? My colleague, marketing expert Marcia Yudkin, says you can do it by:

1. Taking issue with a survey result.

2. Disagreeing with a common belief or counteract a stereotype.

3. Championing an underdog.

4. Revealing common misconceptions.

5. Making surprising predictions.

6. Exposing flaws in something assumed to be beneficial.

7. Describing the underside of something popular.

Example: Bob Baker and 3 colleagues in the music business collaborated on a press release titled “What’s Wrong with American Idol?”

Their press release criticized the popular U.S. talent show for misleading aspiring musicians and the public about what it takes to succeed in music. Baker’s reward for stirring up controversy: 5 radio interviews that highlighted his status as an expert on careers in music.

3 ways to create a sense of urgency

Posted August 29th, 2010. Filed under Copywriting

When you encourage prospects to act now instead of later, response rates increase.

1. One way to do this is to put a deadline on your offer.

Since 3rd-class mail takes an average of 2½ weeks to be delivered nationwide, make the deadline at least 8 to 12 weeks from the mail drop date. Alternatively, for any mailing that goes out September or later, a good deadline date is December 21.

Copywriter David Yale recommends emphasizing that the deadline date is final by adding the phrase “it’s too late” as follows: “This offer expires December 21, 2010. After that, it’s too late.”

For e-mail marketing, you can say the offer is good only if the recipient replies “today” or “this week”.

2. If you are not comfortable putting a deadline date on your mail piece, specify a time frame within which the reader must reply, e.g., “reply within the next 10 days”.

3. Or at least make it clear that this is a time-limited offer. Copywriter Milt Pierce suggests this wording: “But I urge you to hurry. This offer is for a limited time only. And once it expires, it may never be repeated again.”

Get ClickBank approved!

ClickBank Approved!

Do you agree “the faster you get approved with your new ClickBank product, the faster that you will start making money?”

The ClickBank marketplace is a great way to sell your products with an instant army of affiliates promoting for you, the problem is it can be hard to get your product approved to sell on their website.

If you agree that time is money then you’re going to want to make sure that you know all the secrets to getting your product approved fast, so that you can get to selling your product sooner rather than later.

Brian Dew have just finished a step-by-step video that will allow you to look over his shoulder as he sets up one of his products for the ClickBank marketplace, and share with you all the secrets on how he gets approved so fast over and over again.

Of course you could spend days or weeks trying to figure out on your own, but if you’re one of the kind of person that knows time is money then you really should access “ClickBank Approved!” now.

Should you write your own copy?

Posted August 28th, 2010. Filed under Copywriting

My answer may surprise you, but it’s enthusiastically “yes” IF these 3 conditions exist:

1. You are an excellent copywriter.
2. You enjoy writing copy.
3. You have the time to write copy.

Business owners and marketing managers who fit these criteria often produce copy that’s better and more successful than the pros. Why?

They know the product and the market intimately, because they live with it full-time. Half the battle in copywriting is really knowing the customer and the product, so the business owner or manager has the edge…IF he can write.

On the other hand, marketers who can’t write, don’t like to write, or don’t have time to write copy are better off farming it out to an agency or freelancer.

Scarsdale Diet author's writing secret

Posted August 27th, 2010. Filed under Copywriting

When you write with a clear picture of your reader in mind, your copy is much more effective.

Samm Sinclair Baker, author of many best-selling books (including “The Scarsdale Diet” with Dr. Herman Tarnower), had an interesting way of picturing his reader as he wrote:

Baker looked through magazines until he found a picture of a person he imagined was a typical reader for what he was writing.

He then cut out the picture and taped it to the edge of his PC monitor.

As a result, he was constantly looking at his reader while he wrote.

Baker says this helped him write more conversationally, because he was “talking” to the person in the picture as he typed.

List Building Nirvana

Posted August 26th, 2010. Filed under List Building

Never Fail List Building

Early this year, Facebook is declared to have overtaken Google as the primary traffic source. It symbolically means that the Internet is taking on a more social dimension and net users are becoming dynamic and interactive. For the online marketer, it means we can’t rely only on Google to feed the leads, NOT when we are bending ourselves over their rules and getting our Google accounts suspended in the process.

In a way that’s good news, because many of us marketers are gradually discovering new traffic sources and new ways to funnel leads to our websites. Bill McRea is one of them. He has been marketing online since 2002 and one of his niche site he’s famous for is his Guitar Warehouse. Today he’s making about $2 million per year and he relies mostly on free traffic.

He is also a blog marketing/list building type of guy, much like me. Today he launches his “Never Fail List Building” system, a traffic blueprint that he has perfected over the years to build his lists automatically using only free traffic.

To let you in on the nature of Bill’s methods, you will learn how to source for new content to publish on your sites and syndicate it to every other directories by taking full advantage of RSS feeds, ping-and-tag, article marketing and Web 2.0 properties, but there’s so much more to the details that my short description here does them no justice.

Never Fail List Building” consists of step-by-step videos and tools that would help you to get started building lists on day one. Here is what NFLB is exactly about:

If you are willing to put in a little bit of effort then this system can work very well for you. You have absolutely nothing to lose. ALL THE RISK is on Bill McRea, you have a 60-day money-back guarantee from him.
