What does
flu have to do with building your list?Well a lot!
A flu, just like any other virus is able to spread itself to anyone it comes in contact with.
And when we are building are email lists, we want this same type of viral effect to take place. This viral effect is known as viral marketing.
Viral Marketing is allowing people to giveaway and use your free product or service in order to spread your message quickly over internet. I also call this form of marketing wild fire marketing because as soon as it starts, it will spread your marketing all over internet like a wild forest fire. When this happens, it will be difficult to stop it.
The idea behind viral marketing is that you include your ad with a freebie people giveaway or use. The ad will be an advertisement of your ezine or newsletter. Below are ten high impact viral marketing strategies:
1. Allow people to use any of your freebies as free bonuses for products or services they sell. Include your ad on all your freebies. A lot of product owners are willing to do this.
2. Allow people to reprint your articles on their web site, in their e-zine, newsletter, magazine or ebooks. Include your resource box and option for article reprints at bottom of each article.
3. Allow people to add their link to your free web site directory. Just require that they return a link back to your web site, advertising your directory.
4. Allow people to sign up for a free web site on your server. Since you are giving away space, require them to include your banner ad at top of site.
