3 Quick Ways To Effective Testimonial Marketing

(1)Give Powerful Testimonials.

The more credible your testimonial better chance you have of having your testimonial published on a site and featured in a better position. Be specific in your testimonials, just like you are in sales pages and your ads. For example, “I earnt $187.00 in my first 10 days of using this product” etc is much more effective than “I made some sales in first month”. The more specific you are, higher your visibility will be.

(2)Be Choosy With Offering Testimonials.

You’re probably thinking I’ve had a bit to drink since I started writing this article and coming up with this point because haven’t I just defeated whole purpose to my article? I don’t think so. If you offer testimonials to every person with a website you’ll lose all credibility. Make your opinion matter by only putting your name to products and services that really deserve it. A bit like athletic sponsorship deals. You are going to be endorsing a certain product people will associate you with…so make sure it’s worthy of your acclaim. If in doubt, don’t put it out.

(3)Make Your Testimonials Sell.

Make sure you take time to promote yourself by signing your full name and website address on bottom of all your testimonials. Even better do what one noted internet marketer did and give yourself a label. The Fr** Ad Guru may be taken but can you think of a nifty name to brand your own identity? If so, throw it in and your testimonial may just get featured just because they like your name – for example, Cheapskate Suzy, Future Internet Millionaire etc.

2. Understanding Niche Markets

99% of time buyers make decisions based on emotions rather than need.

They may NEED a new car, but they WANT a BMW!

They may NEED information on self-publishing, but they WANT to see it on video from an expert in field.

Live a day (or several days) in your market's shoes.

Read what they read. Go where they go. Monitor what they say. Ask what they want, but more important find out WHY?

What have they purchased in past? What types of messages work - what entices them to take their wallet out again and again.

That's what understanding your niche means. The golden key to earning BIG profits from niche markets is understanding that market at a level you much deeper than you may be willing to learn. You now know difference between massive wealth building and struggling business

3. Qualifying Niche Markets

OK. So you have identified a target market, you understand their needs, wants, desires and motivation for such desires.

Next question!

Will they buy what you are offering? Will they continue to buy to satisfy their need?

You can qualify by asking following questions:

1. Do they have means? Do they have discretionary money to buy your products?

2. Have they bought before? You like to see a pattern of spending on products in your area of focus.

3. What is emotional driver behind people buying products in your market?

Have you identified a niche market that meets these criteria?

If not, please stop whatever you are doing and spend some time on this.

Identify, Understand and Qualify your niche market and you can turn peanuts into pure gold!
