When I was laying out a lot of money to start up WebmasterTrafficTools.com and Power Linking, I was cash-poor but product rich. I traded for advertising like you wouldn't believe and found most people to be very open to methods of payment that didn't involve exchange of cash.

Take a look at your assets, all of them. Not just money you have in bank. Evaluate what you have to offer people in exchange for services or other products. Thinking in terms of "How can this person help me achieve my goals if I help them achieve theirs?" will go a long way in internet marketing.

You cannot do it alone. No one has. The next time you see a new Mark Joyner product released, think about web of people and partners he has behind him helping him develop, release and market that product. His name might be only one on product itself, but there are others who he has developed partnerships with, in his case on a grand scale, who help him develop and move his products.

Do a search for forums on Alta Vista with your keywords and you will find what you are looking for. Join a couple at first. Lurk and find out what you can contribute. Post questions and find others who are being most helpful. Feel free to contact them and propose a mutually-beneficial JV. We are all business people. JVs are good business.

If your proposal is good and your product or service is appealing, you should have no trouble attracting others with large opt-in lists or high-traffic web sites to help you market it if you give them a good piece of pie.

All of our JVs for Power Linking typically get additional commissions over our affiliates. Don't hesitate to offer more to partners because they will typically outsell an entire affiliate force if they are well-connected, have huge lists of customers, and have established a presence on web.

For best marketing forum on net, hands down, you will want to check out Internet Marketing Warrior Forum.
