28 Blockbuster Cash Secrets for Business Marketing and Growth

1. Set up a cross-promotion deal with another Web business. Allow them to sell your product as a back- end product to their existing customer base. The Web business’ product should be related to your product or service. If not, it may not sell that well to a different target audience.
   
   
2. Sell your product in a package deal with other Web businesses. You can both advertise it and split the profits. For example, if you are selling tennis rackets, maybe you could partner with a tennis ball business and package them together. It's a win/win joint venture deal.

3. Rent your products out for a set period of time. It's like selling but you get the products back to rent again. You could make more profit in the long run renting your products or services. People today have less money and would rather rent than buy something if they'll only use it once.
   
   
4. Allow people to subscribe to your products. It works best when selling information products, services or memberships. You could charge them per week, per month, per quarter or per year. It will bring in secure residual income. Plus, you can sell your subscribers back-end products for single sales.
   
   
5. Allow folks to lease your products. It's like renting them, but they have the option of buying at the end of the lease. For example, if you were leasing out computers, the customers would pay you a monthly fee. If they returned the computer at the end of their lease, you could lease it out again to someone else, or even sell it.
   
   
6. Add a message forum to your Web site. People will visit your Web site to ask questions and answer other people's questions. Some people will just participate on message boards so they can leave their link, but those people may end up buying your products or services, too.

7. Add an article section to your Web site. People will visit your site to read and learn new information related to their interests. You want to have original content so people can't go anywhere else to get it. You also want to update it regularly so they will want to revisit your site over and over.
   
   
8. Add an archive of past e-zine issues to your Web site. Your new subscribers will visit your site to read the past issues that they've missed. Your old subscribers might want to look up some information or ads they remembered seeing in your e-zine.
   
   
9. Add a free e-book directory to your web site. People will visit your site to download, study and read new information. If you do add one, offer e-book related products. Those people might decide they want to create their own e-book and submit it to your directory.
   
   
10. Add a free classified ad section. People will visit your Web site to place their own free classified ad and to read other offers. You can encourage them even more by telling them you will pick a few classified ads to run in your e-zine. This may influence them to subscribe to your e-zine or to revisit your Web site regularly to submit new ads.
    
    
11. Add an "About Us" page to your web site. People will visit your Web site to read about you and your business. This will help to make your relationship with your prospects more personal and persuade them to buy. Include some of your non-business information as well on your "About Us" page.
    
    
12. Add a guest book to your web site. People may visit your Web site to leave their opinions about your business and to list their signature file. Yes, they may only be doing it to get free advertising, but it could be a visitor who might eventually buy your product.

13. Add a free software download page to your web site. Visitors will come to find new software that will make their lives easier. Your software could be your own, freeware, submitted shareware or demos. The software should be related to your target audience.
    
    
14. Show your potential e-zine subscribers a sample issue of your e-zine. Black out some of the important information; this will make them more curious and get them to subscribe. Use a really juicy tip they have not probably heard of.
    
    
15. Give away a free follow-up autoresponder course. Publish your e-zine ad in each lesson. The more people who see it, the higher the chance they'll subscribe. Your e-zine needs to have a lot of original and quality content for this to persuade them to subscribe. Of course, you could also mention one of your products in each lesson.
    
    
16. Offer your potential customers a discount on a particular product you sell if they subscribe to your free e-zine. For example, you could say, "subscribe to my free e-zine and get a 40% discount off my latest e-book!" After they subscribe you, could tell them about your secret discount order page in the ‘thank you’ e-mail you send them.
    
    
17. Give other businesses permission to give away a free subscription to your e-zine as a bonus for a product they sell. You want the product or service to be related to your e-zine, though. Just think, you could have a lot of businesses offering your e-zine to their customers.
    
    
18. Ask your potential subscribers questions that'll persuade them to subscribe. For example, you could say, "Would you like to be able to retire before you're 40?" Another example, "Does the idea of working at home appeal to you?"

19. Write your e-zine's ad to sound like it is common sense to subscribe. For example, you could say, "we all know that knowledge is a key factor in making a business profitable."
    
    
20. Assume people are going to instantly subscribe to your e-zine. For example, begin with "Dear Healthy Subscriber." They may want to subscribe in order to feel healthy. Another example: "Dear Intelligent Subscriber." They will want to subscribe in order to feel intelligent.
    
    
21. Allow your subscribers to collect things from each issue of your e-zine. It could be e-books or software. They'll tell others and those people might subscribe, too. For example, you could say, "In each issue of our e-zine, we will be giving away a new, limited edition business report! Collect them all!"
    
    
22. Tell people what their friends or family might say as a result of them learning what's in your e-zine. People care about what other people think of them. For example, you could say, "Just imagine your wife telling you how proud she is of you for starting your own business!"
    
    
23. Make people feel like it's their idea to subscribe; they will be less hesitant. For example, you could say, "You are making a smart decision for subscribing." Another example: "Thank you for making an intelligent choice and subscribing to our e-zine!" Plus, you're assuming ahead of time they are going to subscribe.
    
    
24. Allow other e-zine publishers or Web site owners to republish small nuggets or excerpts of information from your free e-book with your byline or ad included. That is another way to market your business with the use of a free e-book.
    
    
25. Make extra profits from selling monthly updates of your free e-book. You could also back-end sell the extra, never-before-released chapters of your free e-book. You’ll have a lot more people reading your e-book and seeing your ad because it's free and because you allow others to give it away. Plus, you can make more profit from it by selling extra content.
    
    
26. You could recruit a famous and respectable person to endorse your product, Web site or service. People will click because they'll trust that person over you. For example, you could say, "(Famous Name) has even bought our product! Click here to see why!"
    
    
27. Divide your free e-book into reports, then allow people to use them as bonus products for products they sell. Just make sure they include your resource box or ad with the report. If you want to, allow them to sell the reports, too.
    
    
28. You could end your ad copy with a free bonus. When you give people a free bonus, it increases the product's perceived value. For example, you could say, "You'll get 7 free bonuses for ordering before (date)." Another example, "If you order this weekend only, you'll get the FREE e-book, (title)!"
