A Little-Known, FREE Way to Learn How to Market Online
Want to know a great way to learn how to market—from top marketers—without paying a penny?
Watch their product launches.
When a top marketer launches—or relaunches—a high-end product, they roll out a lot of free content to attract potential buyers to learn about their product. Some of the content is specific to the product they're launching.
They'll show you the results people have gotten from their product in the past. Or they'll show you how effective their product is in doing some profit-generating task.
The first kind of info isn't all that useful. Those aren't as useful. They can be inspirational. They can help you build the mindset of what it's possible to do.
But prelaunch campaigns that are like gold are the ones that show how the product helps you generate income.
Why?
In the process of showing how the product helps you, this type of free content gives you tips you can use in your business even if you don't use that product. It simply takes a little longer without it.
One excellent product relaunch I'm following right now is PortalFeeder.
Personally, I'm a PortalFeeder owner and have found it to be an incredible tool for building sites quickly. It streamlines the process of building sites and gives you a full range of tools to help build your search engine rankings and promote your site in ways that actually build traffic.
Like another favorite site-building tool of mine, SiteBuildIt!, PortalFeeder also provides complete training and ongoing support from a community of business owners who have already achieved the success you seek.
I've never mentioned PortalFeeder before because it's been closed to new members. I got in on PortalFeeder over a year ago when it first opened. Since that original opening day, PortalFeeder has been closed to new members.
Right now, though, PortalFeeder is preparing to open its doors again to a few new members. And they're giving out some great information in their blog to get people to sign up for their advance notification list.
In the past couple of weeks they've shared some great tips that you can use.
For example, in their April 16 blog entry, they posted tips on how to boost incoming links from an authority site that most people don't realize will provide links if you use it right.
In their April 13 blog entry, they posted an ingenious way to generate affiliate income.
Other posts discuss the difference between some of the obsolete business-building techniques that many new business owners use—to their detriment—and the way of business building that works today.
Their April 20 post falls into that first category I spoke of. It gives a case study of someone who built a steady—and still growing—income of $3,000 a month in only four months with Portal Feeder. But along the way, he describes all the tools that made this rapid business growth possible.
You'll find all these posts beneath the Advance Notification Signup Form on the PortalFeeder blog. I encourage you to check out these posts.
And while you're at it, sign up for the Advance Notification list. They promise more tips in their newsletter and advance information about when PortalFeeder will reopen.
Even if you're not interested in PortalFeeder as a platform for building a successful business, you can learn a lot from their tips—and even by studying any promotional emails you receive.
I take other people's promotional emails and save them in my swipe file. Then, when I do copywriting, I pull them out to give me ideas. There's nothing wrong about getting ideas from the best in the business!
