Written by JIM GREEN


Here’s a novel way of test marketing new produce for free from an existing web site. Mayberepparttar idea is not so new but it’s new to me and I know for a fact it works - because I tried it out andrepparttar 108794 results were spectacular.

In a nutshell…

Recently I developed five new interlinked products which I was loath to thrust upon an unsuspecting public without some idea of their uptake potential. I looked at several online test marketing software kits but baulked atrepparttar 108795 price tags. Then I decided to undertake a little experiment. I added two new pages to www.writing-for-profit.com of whichrepparttar 108796 first was devoted to Product No.1 (which co-incidentally comprisesrepparttar 108797 other four) withrepparttar 108798 second page offering a free ebook extollingrepparttar 108799 virtues ofrepparttar 108800 new package. Bearing in mind that this new parcel was disparate from my core produce I featured these additional pages with navigation buttons entitled ‘WHAT’S THIS?’ and ‘AND THIS?’ Then as belt and braces security so as not to confuse visitors I explained in a regular page why I was doing this by coming up front and confessing that I was test marketing.
