OK, guys. Here is my most sacred, most trusted secret that I’ve used in the past (and still use) to get 100 free leads in a day for little or no work. In all honesty, it’s not a secret, as I’ve published this in one of my ebooks that I sell in my ‘lifetime package’ on tis blog.

Here’s my secret…

Create a bonus product for someone else’s product. That’s it.

Sounds simple, right? Well, it’s easier said than done, buddy. But just listen up to how I did it.

A friend of mine, Ken Reno, was about to launch a new website that was dedicated to finding the most profitable keywords to use in Adwords campaigns. Of course, the target market for his launch were affiliate marketers who use Google Adwords, since they’re always looking for new keywords that they’re competition isn’t using or not dominating.

Luckily, I had made friends with Ken a while ago, as he was actually a customer for one of my earliest products. I had no idea that he was going to blow up the way he has over the past year, and now he’s even surpassed me in terms of the size of his list. I believe he’s past 10K now, and a few ‘gurus’ have interviewed him on how he grew his list that size. His secret was viral products, which I also talk about in “Internet Marketing Mastermind” in great detail.

(Of course, you can get your hands on it tomorrow - if you’re smart )

Anyway, I stayed in communication with Ken before his launch was even a twinkle in his eye. So, I always kept up with him and checked in on him, as you should with ALL of your online friends and potential business partners. It’s basically being friendly, which you don’t find a lot of people being online anymore. Maintain a friendly, homely attitude, and watch how much further your business will go…trust me.

Anyway, I asked him a while ago to put me on his ‘JV list’ for when he launched his next product. As a result, when he went to launch his website, I was of course notified 3 days in advance about it, so that I could start formulating a strategy to promote this to my subscribers. At the time, my list was only about 200 deep, so I didn’t have much to contribute to his launch. I did promote it, though…because he’s good people.

He later asked in his JV recruitment email if anyone had any bonuses that anyone wanted to add to his download section, as he was trying to ‘beef’ up the package. So, seeing this as an opportunity to make a dent in my struggling career…I actually told him that he could give his customers one of my $7 ebooks (Cheap Affiliate Profits) for free as a bonus, if it would help him out. He said yeah, anything would help. So, since the product used the infamous $7 Secrets Script, there was already a direct link to the opt-in form that customers normally saw after they paid for the guide.

I ended up creating a copycat page just like it that said his name and everything, helping him out. As a gesture, I asked him to add his affiliate link for Ebay Profit Loophole on the download page, too…to help him make some extra money off of the venture.

I figured something had to happen as a result of this, since he had numerous people promoting his launch on launch day. So what happened?

Well, it was late August when this happened, so it was still a good time to take my family to the beach, since it was still very warm outside (in the low 80’s). So, we went for a family stroll on the beach, let my daughter play in the sand, while I sat around tending to my then 2-month old son.

After a few hot dogs and hamburgers, and some sand in our shoes…we came back home.

To be particularly honest, I totally forgot that me and Ken had even did this deal. I had other issues to attend to, like paying bills, setting up studio appointments to mix down recordings I had previously produced for other recording artists I worked with…yada yada yada.

Anyway, I logged into my autoresponder, and noticed 120 new leads were added, and 105 of them had already double-opted. Ken had also scored 80 sales on Ebay Profit Loophole that day, too, bringing him some extra Clickbank money (over $500 in commissions on that first day).

Mind you, all I did was offer an ebook that I was selling to his customers. Cool right?

This was so cool because all of the leads were ‘buyers’ showing me that these people were already geared to buy IM products, and that they were interested in my information. Those were two key elements for how I built my relationship with these new prospects.

And that’s the story on how I got over 100 new leads for my mailing list in 1 day. Was it luck? No. The situation had been set up perfectly. I had asked Ken before we even did the deal, how many JV partners he had set to promote his launch. He said around 100 or so people were going to mail their lists about his site.

So, knowing the traffic pulling power of 100 affiliates/JV partners, I instantly jumped on the opportunity to offer a bonus product to his launch. Crazy enough, I think I was one of three people who offered bonuses on his guide…and mine was the only one that had a ‘back end’ offer (my Ebay Profit Loophole book)

Seriously, if you have any contacts in your niche who puts out digital products, stay in touch with them! Become their best friend if you can, and offer as much as you possibly can to them. When you hear about a product launch ahead of time, try to contact the product owner and tell him/her that you’ll promote their product launch. Then tell them that you have a bonus for their customers, and let them check it out.

The bonus could be a simple ebook or any kind of digital product. You know how easy it is to come up with these kind of products. If you suck at it…there’s always PLR…the easy way out.

Just make sure that you include an opt-in form for all the people to sign up for in order to receive your bonus. If your partner is not a big fan of this, simply include a one-page ad at the beginning or preferably the end of the ebook plugging your mailing list. Then, your partner can simply upload your guide to his/her site, and let their customers download it directly from the vendor without having to sign up for anything. This could definitely be a benefit for the both of you.

A good place to find JV partners:

Conquer Your Niche Forum
They have a separate folder on there for people looking and requesting JV partners for their launches. These are great people to offer a bonus product for, since they’re open for all business at that point.

I would recommend the Warriors Forum, BUT…I have a huge grudge with their admins.

Now, I’m going to answer a few questions that people have asked me…

1) How much is the bundle of ebooks you’re releasing?

Well, I’ve decided to sell this bundle for $47, with some bonuses I’ll announce later on the blog, and not via email. The bonuses will only be for the first 10 customers…as I don’t have too many of these bonuses to go around. You can keep yourself in the loop if you’re subscribed to the blog. I have a lot of email subscribers, and I don’t want to send an email TWICE to them today.

Everyone told me that I should sell this bundle for $47, as everybody and their mama is selling their stuff for that price. It’s not that I’m trying to follow suit, but I truly believe that this release is one of my most information-packed releases I’ve ever put out.

I’ve put out 40-50 page guides in the past for cheap, and this time, I think I’m due my ‘just desserts’ for my hard work, you know?

2) Does “Internet Marketing Mastermind” really work? I don’t want to buy into something else that’s not going to help me in the long run.

Well, I’ll answer this question with a testimonial from someone who purchased a review copy of it a month ago from me in a special sale I was holding. No, this is not some made up crap, and I wished I could’ve gotten a picture or video for this, but he’s like a lot of other people, who just doesn’t have the money for a hi-speed connection just yet, so video was out of the question. Anyway, here’s what Steven had to say about it:

Hi Tim,

I’ve had an opportunity to read your new digital book, Internet Marketing Mastermind,

What I found was a real world marketing system, which if applied, will lead anybody to a successful Internet career.

In your system, you cover every aspect of marketing, from selecting suitable niches, to building products from scratch, from generating traffic to a website to marketing the products, from attracting and keeping joint venture partners, to creating profitable email lists. Most importantly, you teach how to win and keep customer loyalty, from customers who will buy again and again. Of course I know this works, because I’ve purchased just about everything you have ever written.

The Internet Marketing Mastermind is a complete system. And what’s really incredible, is that you provide a college level course in Internet Marketing in under 100 pages, by eliminating fluff and wasted rhetoric, and getting straight to facts from page 1.

What I found best of your “system” though, is that incredibly rich selection of resources you have included, particularly FREE to use resources that I never knew existed.

The Internet Marketing Mastermind is an awesome and fitting end to your career in this niche. It is truly an excellent work.

Thank you for writing such a rich and complete system.

Wish you continuing success in your future internet ventures.

Steven Stewart

Noticed how he said a ‘fitting end to your career’. Well, it’s not the end of the world, but I have been venturing into several new niches, mostly doing CPA campaigns getting paid per lead. That’s instant cash money lol. But you have to understand how well, the information in “Internet Marketing Mastermind” has helped me with these campaigns.

I’m not a big fan of flashing account statements and such showing that I get money. After experiences I have had in the past with some people I worked with…I’d rather not do it, since many of these screenshots of paypal accounts and clickbank accounts out there are fake. Trust me, I know half of these guys, and this is the case.

So, why insult you by regurgiting the same garbage that we all hate and loathe to death?

3) What are the books about?

Basically, I’ll throw you a few bullet points that you can expect to see on the sale page tomorrow. I’m not a big fan of these types of sales pages, as people don’t read them all the way through, anyway. So let me give you a few benefits:

• You learn over 25 ways to build a mailing list
• You learn a strategy that I dubbed as “Bully Marketing” for making cash on demand
• You learn TWO ways in which you can start an online business from scratch with NO money in your pocket.
• You learn a secret that will propel your business in a heartbeat. The thing is, many people are doing this…but they’re doing it from the wrong point of view. This one secret was responsible for me pulling in over $20K in gross sales from Ebay Profit Loophole last year.
• You learn the one thing that 95% of internet marketers aren’t doing…and it’s not about “taking action” or some nonsense like that.
• You learn how to get a huge surge of traffic to your websites, for cheap, if not NOTHING.
• You learn one tactic that actually KEPT people on my mailing list, instead of unsubscribing…even though I email everyday.
• You learn my #1 business belief that I incorporate in EVERYTHING that I do. You might think you know what it is…but YOU DON’T…trust me.
• You learn a tactic that makes average people a boatload of cash everyday. I used it several times to make thousands on command…and people were happy to give up the cash.
• You learn ‘AIDA’. What the heck is that? You soon shall see my friend…but it’s a formula I use when I’ve written my sales letters for my products and my email promotions.
• You’ll learn about the 40+ websites I’ve used to build my mailing list. You probably have NO idea about more than a fraction of these sites.
• You learn about three words that I look for on a website that let’s me know that I can be a JV Broker for them. This is so stupidly simple, that you’ll probably dummy smack yourself for not seeing it sooner. I show you how to make JV Brokering a cakewalk with these “magic 3 words”, because you don’t need a product, a website or a list to make some serious cash from it.

Wow, that’s a lot of bullet points…and that’s just from “Internet Marketing Mastermind”. LOL And for your information, the book finally came out to 108 pages after some last minute formatting. I wasn’t trying to make it long, but that’s just how it came out, you know?

“Secrets of Relationship Marketers EXPOSED” is pretty much about what to do AFTER you’ve built the list. I really go in depth as to what I’ve done, that people don’t really see. It’s not that I’m playing a gimmick to my subscribers, but it’s truly all about building a relationship, correct?

To be real honest, my other ebook “Secrets of Relationship Marketers EXPOSED” would seem more like a ‘bonus’ for my subscribers. In a recent survey I did, mostly everyone wanted to build the list in the first place, which showed that there was a true need for people to actually learn how to establish an online business.

And to me, that’s totally understandable with me. I just know for a fact, that a way to quickly establish an online business is to build a mailing list in a niche. I can honestly say that because, I built my online business that way. I also know for a fact that several of my JV partners have done it this way.

There’s no shame in trying to hide this fact. But, it must be shared with you because I want you to finally believe that it does work. I’m sure that you’ve been told this on hundreds of different occasions by everyone you know who says they’re a guru. Build a mailing list, and bank off of that. That’s called email marketing, my friend. You’ve already known how to do it, you just gotta DO IT.

The only reason why I even have these two ebooks going up for sale tomorrow at Noon, is because no matter how many times you’ve been told to DO IT, you need different ways in which you can accomplish this, right?

I mean, how many times have you read an ebook, and said “I can’t do this…doing the work seems too much for me”…

I’ve said it over and over as I was buying book after book every day. This turned into refunds, naturally.

So, why not show you a TON of different ways in which you can get the job done? That way, you have many different routes to choose from. There are tons of ways to establish an email marketing business. What I’m doing is breaking the mold, so to speak, by showing you several ways to “get r done”. LOL

So, if you keep an eye on my blog, I’ll let you know what the BIG bonus is for tomorrow, and pretty much, if you need me, contact me. If I don’t respond right away, it’s because I’m either fine tuning everything for tomorrow, or I’m cleaning food off of my walls courtesy of the kids.

Trust me, I’d rather be talking to you instead of doing the other boring and grueling stuff.

Comments are welcome!
