When
I first started out in online business (almost seven years ago now) it
always intrigued me to see marketers go out and pull a circulation of
half a million potential views for their products just by getting
themselves ten or fifteen deals with other marketers. Half a million
targeted, almost guaranteed to be interested, ready to buy viewers,
customers even. Wow. Imagine what that would do for your business.
(This
is usually the point at which I pull out my calculator and start
playing with numbers looking at the earning potential, I don't know any
marketer that doesn't do the same, so feel free!)
So how did they do it?
Well that's what I wanted to know too, especially as I was on a budget
and didn't have much cash to hand, meanwhile they were doing all this
for free. So I went around and bought courses, bought info products,
bugged people in the know with all sorts of questions.
The methods they were using all seemed suspiciously similar.
They'd say to me, it's easy. Go check out google (or yahoo, and what's
now known as Overture.com back in the day) and search for 'Online
Business'. Then all you have to do is find the people who are
successful, and e-mail them with your offer.
Something wasn't right here. What was it?
Think about it for a moment. If these marketers are really selling
thousands of their 'How to Joint Venture' products, then how many
people are contacting everyone on the first 10 pages of these search
engines! They must be getting hammered with e-mails.
I gave it a shot anyway, here's what happened...
All of these list owners were replying to me with 'Look, you have a
good offer, but since these products started popping up telling people
to just use search engines and contact the successful, I've been
inundated with more offers than I could handle in a lifetime'. (Oh and
trust me when I say that was was one of the kinder responses stating
the same point).
It became obvious to me what the problem was.
These marketers may have used these tactics when they first started
out, but it just didn't work anymore. This method was saturated (and
this was almost seven years ago) yet no one seems to correct themselves
or come up with alternatives to such an outdated technique, and how can
they afford not to when half a million or more circulation for a single
product are at stake here?
Something had to change, and it did:
It took me seven years, it took me more than $38,000 to hone a new
method for successful joint venturing, not to mention many many
hundreds if not thousands of hours sitting in this very chair that I
write to you from now, but finally, I did it, and now it's all yours.
Check this out.. (Hint: I didn't even contact a single big name
marketer to pull this off or pull random names from search engines to
make this work)
