Seven Ways to Keep Earning After Youve Completed the Sale
So you've just sold another digital product; things are going great, right? Well, they might be, but unless you separate yourself from the crowd, you're probably still leaving money on the table. Here are seven simple ways to keep the money coming in long after the initial sale. 1. Throw in a free ebook with giveaway rights as a bonus for buying the product. It doesn't have to be long; anywhere between five and twenty pages will do. The key is to give them a strong incentive to give it away. The bigger the incentive, the bigger your profits. 2. Let them join your affiliate program as another bonus for purchasing. Combine it with number one and see what you're able to come up with! Give them powerful pre-selling tools such as review articles of the products you are selling, and text ads to run on websites and/or ezines. 3. Back-end them with products you can earn recurring or residual income from. Some examples are web hosting and autoresponder services, as well as private membership sites. 4. Teach them how to achieve the same level of success that you enjoy. Tie in multi-tier affiliate programs that help them to reach their objectives. This can be shared in a free viral special report that keeps multi-tier affiliate commission coming in for months, even years. Obviously you don't want to reveal everything you know, just enough to help them on their way. This free special report can be a powerful pre-seller for an ebook written by you or someone else. 5. Monetize your customers with joint venture deals. Be careful to do this sparingly, and make sure you're giving them something of value on a regular basis that gives them something to lose if they ever unsubscribe from your mailing list. 6. Ask them to take a survey and discover what your next information product will be about, based upon their responses. Throw in a free viral ebook as a special thank you, which should continue to expand your list and your profits as it is spread all over the Internet. 7. Recommend multi-tier affiliate programs for them to promote. Write a series of quality articles about these different products, and allow them to change your affiliate links to their own. Be sure to create a solid resource box with your website or ezine subscription address that should keep the hits coming, and the money flowing like never before! These are seven simple ways to continue monetizing your list long after you've completed the sale. Use a combination of all seven in your own creative way to help springboard yourself to extraordinary success online. Cherish your customers and continue to earn their loyalty, while propelling yourself to unimaginable heights. The sky's the limit! **Attn Ezine editors/Site owners**

Learn Judo and Beat the Summer Traffic Blues
Did it seem like as the Fourth of July fireworks went up, your traffic went down? Or perhaps you are dreading your visitors taking a vacation and leaving your site home alone this summer? If this is you, then I advise taking some time out to learn a bit of Judo.
Judo and the art of website management
Judo? What on earth is the connection between seasonal traffic problems and Judo? Well let me explain a little about Judo and it might start to make more sense.
Judo is an interesting form of combat, because Judo techniques don't rely on outright strength or size. Instead, the participants use suppleness and flexibility of response (ju means "flexible" in Japanese) to turn their opponent's apparent advantages against them. In Judo, you don't actively resist an opponent's move. Instead, a Judo player uses the momentum generated by his opponent's attack to bring him down.
Are you beginning to see the connection? If your visitor numbers or conversions nosedive at certain times of the year, don't fight it ? use it to your advantage. This is how you can manage your online business Judo-style.
But how does this work in practice? Well, when fewer visitors and customers mean you have more time available, you can?
1. Overhaul your site
Have you been too busy dealing with orders and enquiries to give your site that much-needed makeover? Take advantage of the extra time to implement all those great content, navigation and conversion-improving ideas you are too busy to even think about during the rest of the year.
2. Add to your product line-up
This is a great opportunity to add both new tangible products, and extra downloadable ones as well. If you have nothing else to do, a few relatively undisturbed days will give you more than enough time to put together a new ebook on your area of expertise.
3. Build links and credibility
Articles (like this one) are a great way to generate both links and credibility. Any extra time a traffic lull gives you can be used very effectively in writing and posting informative articles. As they are picked up and start appearing across the Internet, your both your inbound links and credibility shoot up.
4. Create new partnerships
Your busy schedule may not allow you much time to do your own browsing, so take advantage of this slow traffic days to get out and look around a bit yourself. Are there any potential partners out there who you could work with to your mutual benefit? A new joint venture can potentially be worth hundreds of additional customers, so this time of browsing and exploring new possibilities has a huge potential payback.
5. Save your advertising bucks
You're keeping track of your conversions as well as your visitor stats, right? Well, if you notice a drop-off around weekends, holidays or other vacation times then, whatever you do, don't use paid advertising to make up the shortfall. If your search engine-generated free visitors aren't in the mood to buy, visitors coming through paid advertising probably won't either. Instead, save your money and use it at those times your historical data tell you give the best bang for your buck.
6. Have a summer sale and get rid of old stock
Kill two birds with one stone: Clear out old inventory while simultaneously encouraging those visitors you do have to spend money with you. Make sure you email all your previous customers about the summer deals too, and you may find you get a stampede of repeat visitors cleaning out your store.
7. Christmas is coming
You may not be able to hear those sleigh-bells just quite yet, but in retail terms, Christmas is just round the corner. Have you thought about how you will get the most out of this year's holiday season? Set your strategy now and ensure this year will see bumper sales.
8. Take a break yourself!
Come on, even following half of my suggestions is going to keep you very busy - even if you do have fewer visitors than usual. So, the final thing to remember is that you are your site's biggest asset and, since you need a break sometime too, why not take it now?
If your visitors are packing up and going to the beach this summer, don't panic: Learn a bit of Judo, and let "The Way of Flexibility" (the literal meaning of "Judo") help you turn your summer blues into a bonanza of new opportunities.
