"Don't Make These Two BIG Mistakes!"

Using ebooks, short reports or ecourses is a
great way to build your list. As an example, you
can use all these things as an “incentive” for
joining your affiliate program, as a “thank you”
for visiting your web site or as a “bonus” when
someone purchases a product or service from you.

A lot of online businesses use them, but often not
to their full potential! It never ceases to amaze
me how much better their results could be if only
they considered more carefully what it is they are
trying to achieve.

Make sure that you don't make either of these two
BIG mistakes next time you decide to give away
an ebook or report.

You might think it's simple stuff but you'd be
surprised how often these to mistakes are committed
- ESPECIALLY the second one!



Mistake #1:

They upload these things to their web site and
publish the download link without capturing a name
or an email address! (Isn't the main point of the
exercise to build your list?) Why would you give
something away without at least trying to capture
an email address so that you can followup with them
at a later date?

Instead of uploading your items to your server and
just publishing the download link, take a little bit
more time to set things up properly. Set yourself
up a mini-site where you can direct people to and
for the cost of providing you with their email
address and name they can have the download link
sent directly to their email address. That way,
anyone entering in false information won't get the
download so you'll have a better chance of building
a higher quality list.

Now you not only have a person to market to, you also
know they're interested in your product or service.
Presto! Your list just grew.

Mistake #2:

They just don’t take the time to customize eBooks
and report with their own links inserted into them.
The thing is….if you're giving away an eBook with
someone else’s links in it then all your marketing
is paying off all right….for the person whose links
are in the e-book! Why would you do that? You are
working for them instead of helping yourself.

Sure it's often the quicker option to just slap up
someone else's e-book onto a download page but with
all the Private Label stuff available for next to
nothing these days, why wouldn't you spend an hour
or two putting together something that will make you
some BIG backend income in the months and even years
to come?
