elling information products with reprint rights is an easy and excellent way to get a fast start making money online as well as by mail.  Especially since they can bring you free traffic to help you build up your mailing list.

When I first started my own online business I had nine years previous experience selling reprint rights products by mail order. It didn’t take long to figure out that there is tons of other folks that also wanted to make money in mail order.

All I had to do was advertise something and it would pull in small $10 - $30 orders and even as much as $100 on repeat or back end orders. Once I turned dead looking reports into a decent new looking product that I would personally buy they sold really well.

I have gotten orders for as much as $250 at a time but mostly in the $30 - $100 range. Like a pretty toy or a fun gimmick, anything that I personally liked in the mail order realm others liked also. So I just created juicy sales flyers using the hottest titles I could find to get orders.

I even cleaned up the print in many of the reports with my word processor making my products look fresh. I soon found that if I created a new product series by bundling together random titles that others liked them too. And they sold well and still do today.

I naturally was drawn to making money online after a while. I actually bought a $47 Internet reprint rights series of e-books that also came with short videos that showed me how to get set up online and taking orders.

Once I learned about using pay per click advertising and could take orders through PayPal I was able to start actually getting online orders. Because I had a lot of time and experience in making my own mail order flyers I naturally wanted to make my own cool sales letter web sites.

Instead of using Microsoft Word I started using Microsoft Front Page (There are free site builders out there like Composer). To me it is like being a hunter or fisherman. It is like finding that magic bait that catches fish like crazy!

Another advantage to reprint rights is that you can have built in PROFIT CENTERS within the products that are links for more of your stuff. They can also be links for affiliate offers as well.

The free advertising or free traffic comes when others buy and start selling your reprint rights products. Your info products can be short informative 7–15-page reports.

Another bonus is that as you begin to put together your catalog of products you can offer both basic reprint rights and master reprint rights as well. Offering master reprint or resale rights is an instant back-end product.

Whether your info-products are Internet or mail order based the basics remain the same:

1.) You need targeted sales content.
2.) You need to build a large mailing list.
3.) You need to follow up with your list.
4.) Offer anything on the front end (a free report, a juicy discount, do whatever to build your list) because …
5.) Real profits start on the 2nd order.
6.) And leverage the efforts of other sellers to build up your list.
7.) Focus on selling repeating income products. It can be a newsletter, web hosting, auto responder service, etc. This is the path to true profitability.

Hey, if you want [tag]FREE TRAFFIC[/tag], Jimmy is the man to listen too!

Are you a “traffic juggler”?

That is, do you attempt to get traffic to your site by doing all kinds of activities ranging from SEO to PPC listings to buying solo mailings?

In other words, do you “juggle” your traffic generation activities like multi-colored balls – never holding on to one for very long and always moving on to the next one?

As a recovering “traffic juggler” myself, I can tell you this with great certainty … you and I aren’t alone.

Sadly, most internet marketers wear the same hat. They complicate things by trying every new traffic strategy, buying ever new traffic tool and joining every new traffic program.

It doesn’t need to be that way.

In fact, what I want to suggest to you in this article will make your life a whole lot easier, and, as a direct result, will actually get more traffic to your site than ever before.

Brace yourself for a life-changing statement –

** If you have your own product to sell online, you only need to focus on ONE traffic strategy! **

Yep, you read that correctly.

Instead of trying to do a gazillion things, there is a very simple, very effective approach: focus on the ONE thing that really matters, the ONE thing that produces the greatest results, the ONE thing that will get you all the traffic you’ll ever need.

And that ONE thing is to…

** Start, Strengthen and Spread Your Own Affiliate Program*

Let’s look at that statement in 3 steps for simplicity purposes…

Step 1: *START* Your Affiliate Program.

There is one major reason why you need to [tag]start your own affiliate program[/tag] that stands head and shoulders above the rest: every traffic generation concept (past, present and future) can be done FOR YOU, BY OTHERS if you have your own affiliate program in place.

Let that sink in. Chew on that for a while. It’s such a paradigm shift that most people don’t even realize the tidal-wave-like power behind the concept.

Instead of you working with PPC ads and you working on the SEO stuff and you buying the solo mailings, you can get others to do this FOR YOU as a member of your affiliate program.

So, to begin with, you need to start your own affiliate program. A great place to do this is Clickbank.com.

Step 2: *STRENGTHEN* Your Affiliate Program.

After establishing your affiliate program, it’s important to “strengthen” it. That is, you will need to train your affiliates to do all of the marketing for you. You’ll also need to provide them with marketing materials such as brandable PDF reports, articles, advertisements, banners, etc.

But, let’s take this another step.

Instead of loading some marketing and training materials to your affiliate center and leaving it up to your affiliates to figure out how to use them, why not point out how to use them?

Example: List 10 great newsletters where they can purchase solo mailings to promote your offer. Put something in there for every budget. (What a nice treat it will be when one of your aggressive affiliates purchases a $500 solo mailing to promote your offer!)

You’ll be SHOCKED to see what this one additional step can mean to your bottom line.

But, you could take it even another step further.

How about offering to personally train 10 affiliates in how best to promote your offer? You could teach one how to use ezine advertising; another how to buy PPC ads in numerous engines; still another how to distribute ezine articles.

(Here’s an idea: how about you purchase a copy of the latest traffic tool or manual for one of your affiliates and get them involved in using it to promote you?!)

Can you imagine the impact?

Step 3: *SPREAD* Your Affiliate Program.

Finally, you want to continue growing your program by recruiting more and more affiliates. As your numbers grow, so will your results.

The bottom line is simple: instead of “juggling” a bunch of different traffic ideas, a much more effective use of your time is to focus on ONE source of traffic: your own affiliate program.

Juggling is great for clowns, but lousy for internet marketers.

Don’t be a clown when it comes to your business.

Hope you enjoyed this valuable article. No matter if you are in mail order or selling online… Using Affiliates to move your products and services is the only way to do business.

Here's an article written by one of the greatest Internet marketers on the planet. When it comes to getting ultimate traffic - he's the one to listen to because he doesn't spend money on pay-per-clicks, SEO, etc. He specializes in 100% FREE traffic!

What if there was a magic bottle that you could rub and a traffic genie would pop out to beckon to your every internet marketing command?

After the initial shock wore off, you’d be quite happy to have it in your possession, right?

Well, in a manner of speaking, such a genie exists. She exists in the form of an “affiliate manager”.

An “affiliate manager” is someone who oversees the operations of an affiliate program in exchange for compensation.

And, out of all the traffic “tools” on the market, the affiliate manager is the one that you should be using daily in your business if you own your own product.

Why?

The bottom line is: more traffic, which results in more revenue for you.

But, specifically, there are 3 reasons why you need an affiliate manager…

1. Recruiting.

Your affiliate manager can [tag]recruit new affiliates[/tag] into your program for you. Instead of you spending time trying to find (and then convince!) affiliates to join your program, your “affman” can do this for you while you focus on other things.

2. Rewarding.

Everyone knows that simply getting people to join your [tag]affiliate program[/tag] is not enough. It takes a lot of effort to get passive affiliates to become (and stay!) active. An affiliate manager is responsible for motivating your team to remain involved in your promotions.

3. Running.

Beyond getting [tag]affiliates[/tag] into your program and making sure they stay active, your affiliate manager can “run” as much of your operations as you want her to. Here are just a few things my affiliate manager (props to Nicole!) does…

* Creates training materials
* Write follow-up mailings
* Communicates with affiliates
* Answer affiliate support questions
* Monitors contests and incentive programs
* Posts to our blog
* Clerical stuff (creates rebrandable files, etc.)
* Circulates content (article directories, etc.)

I could go on and on, but you get the idea.

Perhaps the best part of hiring an affiliate manager is the fact that it doesn’t have to cost you a penny in out of pocket expenses. That is, you can setup your agreement to be performance-based: you pay the affiliate manager a percentage of the overall revenue generated through her
efforts … the more revenue she brings in through the affiliate program, the more she earns.

Now, the question is –

** Where do I find an [tag]affiliate manager[/tag]? **

There are actually quite a few ways to find quality (emphasis needs to be on “QUALITY!”) [tag]affiliate managers[/tag] for your program. Let me share just one…

One of the easiest ways to find an affiliate manager is to visit your favorite affiliate marketing (or internet marketing) forum and post a request asking for recommendations or responses for your needs.

You can do this in two ways -

1. Post a PUBLIC Request.

That is, you post a message for everyone to see, with brief details on the position you have available and that you are seeking recommendations or interest to explore further.

2. Post a PRIVATE Request.

The other option is to identify those participants at the forum who appear to have experience and/or knowledge in affiliate marketing who might be good affiliate manager material. Then, you would simply contact them privately to see if there is interest in discussing your needs.

Running your own affiliate program is a tremendous [tag]traffic generation tool[/tag], but it has a lot of parts. There are many different activities that are involved in successfully running an affiliate program, and hiring an affiliate manager to oversee your operations is a great way to free up your time to work on creating additional products and other “creative” work.

A good affiliate manager can bring in affiliates, train and motivate them, and run your operations for you. Her efforts bring in the traffic; your efforts turn the traffic into orders.

It’s the closest thing to a traffic genie in a bottle that you’ll find. Rubbing is optional. Using this strategy isn’t.
