Answer Upon - Free Advertising - How to Use Effectively
The phrase “Value Added” is widely known around the world, partly because it provides the taxation basis that businesses charge their customers on purchases in many countries. And so to most of us, “Value Added” means the government and supply chains substantially mark up prices and we end up paying more for the things we buy.That means the phrase has an unpleasant connation for most people - one all too similar to “highway robbery”. And that’s unfortunate, as
3. Another way would be by using autoresponders and offering something free over a period of time. Yes, autoresponders too have free versions so use one to 'capture' leads.

Surveys are a major tool that market researchers use to measure public and consumer opinion. Online surveys use the speed and low cost of the Internet to lower survey costs and get fast answers to questions. Survey makers are compensating people who take the surveys and fill out the questionnaires, with cash money, in the form of checks or deposits in your PayPal account.So what's so great about all this? Why are people signing up to get paid for filling ou
Now though there may be more free advertising opps. than one can take advantage of do you think it is possible to build a growing and sustainable business based on 'free advertising'? So far I have yet to read of a 'success' story based purely on free advertising. A few hits here and there, some sign-ups, maybe some pay-off's too in affiliate sales BUT that's it. Maybe more too but nothing sustainable in the rarified atmosphere of major sales and success.
So What Good Is Free Advertising Then? And IF it is good for something how can it be used to max-effect?
I feel free advertising can be put to great use but not necessarily for direct sales and sign-ups. If you achieve sales and sign-ups, great, but a far better use would be to test ad-headlines or ad-copy. Yes, free advertising could be used as a testing ground for ad-headlines and ad-copy BUT the results will have to be evaluated in a whole new light.
Firstly, the market you reach will consist mostly of newbie netpreneurs and/or low or no-budget marketers hoping to make a few sales themselves. Quite often these netpreneurs will be more interested in seeing if their own free ads have been posted rather than look for some other opportunity. If you can achieve even a few hits with these preoccupied marketers then you should consider trying that particular ad in more promising waters.
Secondly, If you are placing free ads in ezines then you should take into account the open-rate of that ezine? How many subscribers read the ezine they subscribe to? Out of which HOW FEW look at the free ads section? Maybe you have a good ad that could be polished to become a great ad but the ezine in which you posted it just does'nt have subs who bother with the free ads section. How will you know? You may never know, you'll just have to guess or keep trying in other ezines.
You could take steps though to increase the potency of your free advertising, for instance...
1. Let your free advertising focus on your main opportunity and stay there for a long long time. Remember the standard - it requires at least 6-7 views before an ad is clicked upon. That's for normal advertising, this here is free advertising so go beyond 6-7 exposures. Select and stay with one opportunity. Selecting one from the list of opps we have calls for a careful decision and this care will reflect in the sincerity of the ads you put out.
2. Make every click you achieve through free ads increase exposure of your main opp. One way of doing this is by having your own website which can be used to showcase any current opp while a home-page link will take the viewer to your main opp. (It is best to advertise one opp only but who can resist all those dream-opportunities that jump at us everyday?) With your own website you could add a page to advertise whichever current opp. you've fallen for while the home-page link keeps your core business in view too.

There is a phenomenon that is available to you that helps sell your preferred and more profitable product/service more frequently. If it is possible, and it usually is, when positioning your pricing structure, it has been found effective at producing a higher level of profits to have a three-choice menu.Choice #1 - is the "no frills" product/service with minimum but acceptable profit margins. 25% care only for price, no matter what the added values and how won

The easiest way to burn out your employees is to force them into sales positions without proper training. In my company we had set up what I called my; Bonzai Scout Teams and Blitz Marketing Teams, sales was the key.We often burned people out and when we did not have our people trained they would burn territory and then burn themselves out too. And in our business model everyone who owned a car wash was our potential customer so it was like fishing in a barrel

In any cleaning operation the cleaning supervisor or company owner is probably the most important person who can motivate cleaning crews to take pride in their work. But how one can motivate, instruct, communicate and lead the cleaning staff?In every job that I have had from cleaning floors to managing teams across the nation – I have used motivation to drive high performance and results from my teams and myself. Motivating and leading is what I love to do.
3. Another way would be by using autoresponders and offering something free over a period of time. Yes, autoresponders too have free versions so use one to 'capture' leads.
All in all, free advtg. should first be used for testing purposes and this can best be done at sites where free advtg. comes with free stats plus the opportunity to modify and resubmit various versions of the same ad. Once you have an ad that even other free advertisers find interesting then it is time to leave free and go paid.
