Hi everyone,

Ray here with a quick, unexpected Blog post for you before 2009 rolls in!

Last week you may remember I sent an email out to you on one of my subscriber lists about a certain product from John Thornhill regarding a resale rights version of his bestselling product Auction Profit Streams.

You see if you remember, I STRESSED to you in this email that I was not making one red cent from the promotion - better still, John knew nothing about me promoting him either!

I DIDN’T include an affiliate link in the email and NOR did I tell John about the promotion to MY list.

Shortly after the promotion went out, I received a really great email of thanks from John (well I think his words were “maximum respect for that” :)) as I know at least 4 of my subscribers went on to purchase his $297.00 product, and these were sales that John:

• Didn’t need to advertise for
• Didn’t need to recruit JV partners for
• Took 100% of the sales dollars
• …and wasn’t expecting!

…and this is a great way for you to build your relationships online for 2009.

Go the extra mile to help OTHERS and forget about the short term windfall of income a promotion to your list brings, and strive to think in terms of the long term success of your business and that of the person you are unexpectedly helping…

The secret is though, NOT to expect anything done in return for you and to just feel good about giving to others - trust me it WILL pay you back in the end!

…and if you haven’t noticed, check out he Lee McIntyre banner on my blog for Standing Start Profits… the first one to guess what’s happening here will willl a special prize worth $130.00!

…and because it is New Year soon it is WAAAY to easy to guess!

Have a great New Year and let me know your thoughts AND your guess in the comments…

Hi everyone,

Ray here with a quick new video on my plans for 2009, and how YOU can profit bigger than ever before…

I have said enough, so I will let the video do the talking…

Hopefully the audio quality is good enough for you as I was driving, but turn up those speakers and it should be fine - thanks to Omar Martin for the heads up!

Regards and like I said in the video, have a great Xmas!

Ray

Your comments are appreciated as it is the last blog entry of the year!

Hi folks

Ray Johnson here, and were now into the 3rd installment of my Back2Basics blog series.

I am going back to basics to take ALL my Blog readers starting RIGHT NOW from complete scratch, to having your own product, their own professionally made website, graphics, salespage, affiliate programme AND TRAFFIC to generate sales.

PLUS the complete system for building a REAL long term business online by following my basic step by step FREE advice.

Remember, YOU DON’T need to be technically gifted, as I am keeping this advice as step by step as it gets, because you don’t have to get it 100% right FIRST TIME around, but you DO have to get your business GOING.

With all that said, let’s get cracking with stage 3.

So now you have our ebook done, it is packed with useful, solid content that will be enjoyed and applied by the reader, it has been converted to PDF, added into a ZIP file and uploaded to you web server in your ebooks folder…

Well you had better DOWNLOAD your ZIP file again, because NOW we are touching on VIRAL marketing! (Did I surprise you? You were expecting a salespage right?

OK, so what is Viral Marketing?

Well, Viral marketing is a marketing strategy that encourages people to pass along your own product to others in order to generate added exposure for you…

So how do we do this?

EASY!

Simply grant resale rights to your eBook and price it quite low (depending on other products in your niche). Now go into Notepad (found in the programs section of your computer) and create a TEXT document that tells others that your work HAS resale rights or simply DOWNLOAD A PRE-MADE EDITABLE VERSION HERE

You can then EVEN include free bonus eBooks that contain your affiliate links, and INCLUDE them in your zip file - now you know why!

I have thrown in a FREE bonus eBook you can brand with your affiliate links HERE

As soon as you have done this simply add BOTH of these files to your Zip file you downloaded from your web server and LEAVE it on your desktop, because NOW we are going to craft your salespage.

Ok, sounds daunting right?

Well it can be unless you use this simple 4 step formula called A.I.D.A.

Attention
Interest
Desire
Action

So you need a strong headline to engage the reader on the problem your product solves, you need to create an interest in your product that clearly demonstrates the current problem, next create desire showing why they need to purchase your product to solve that problem they have, and a strong call to action to make them buy.

Take a look at my salespage for ideas here:

OUTSOURCE2SUCCESS.COM

if you need ANY advice, just email me direct on:

contactray@ray-johnson.co.uk

When your salespage is completed in your HTML editor, you simply save the page and ADD it to your ZIP fie you downloaded earlier (the one containing the bonuses and your eBook) this is to make it as easy as possible for others to rsell YOUR product, getting exposure to YOUR affiliate links AND bonus eBook containing your affiliate links

…and then you are good to move onto the next steps - Creating eyecatching graphics for your product (coming soon).

AND the 2nd Back2Basics post HERE

Make sure you keep on track, as by the time we are all done, you will have your own product ready to sell, your own affiliate system in place and the MOST important aspect of your LISTBUILDING in place…

This will be perfect for you as you will be able to begin from DAY 1- building your list THE RIGHT WAY to bring you the most subscribers and profits from your business.

Because remember, on Tuesday, December 2nd at 7.00PM EST I will be launching my brand new product called SubscriberListSecrets and the information contained in this product will giveaway the entire reason I am giving you all this help for FREE… and give you the COMPLETE blueprint to base your new business on.

With all that said, let’s get cracking with stage 2.

So you either purchased my INSTANT BUSINESS IN A BOX or simply used PLR material you already have, (that’s fine too). You should have now edited the product to include your name as the author and edited the affiliate links inside the product to point to you.

Now it is time to convert it to PDF, (eBook format so that it can be read but not edited by others. You can do this using the FREE word processor included in Open Office. Now simply save the file somewhere you can access it later.

Once this is done simply create a zip file with WinZip and add your PDF eBook to it and name your Zip file.

Next - go into FTP of your website and create a folder (directory) called:

ebooks

…and simply upload your Zip file to this folder, so you will have created a download link to your product. Lets look at this example:

http://www.yoursitename.com/ebooks/yourexactzipfilename.zip

…and then you are good to move onto the next steps - Creating your salespage (coming soon).
