How to get targeted traffic?

One of the best and fastest ways to get targeted *buyers* to your site without spending a penny on advertising is through Joint Ventures.

Over the years, I have not spent much money on marketing yet have managed to do very well online without paid advertising or even much free advertising for that matter.

How have I done this? By forming mutually-beneficial alliances with other businesses.

Just approach them straight, without any tricks or gimmicks, and ask them to JV with you, for a cut of the profits (50% or more.)

Explain to them how their customers will benefit from your product or service.

Not everyone you approach will say yes. But people give up on JV's too easily and decide that it's not effective.

Just one powerful JV will give you the kind of exposure that most advertising never will. So, it's worth the little effort you put in at first.

 

Thanks great info

 

I don`t know what is means Joint Ventures until now.Thanks for this info

 

maroon, a Joint ventures is an entity formed between two or more parties to undertake economic activity together.. for more details refer this;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_venture

 

how you approach people to do JV with you?
as you said, some people reject your JV or some ok...
how many people you approach to do JV?
you could share a lot with us here...

 

A joit venture in business is bit different to a joint venture that is done to generate traffic. A joint venture in the business world would involve signing agreement, and legal documents, etc.

 

so, when both parties agree to do JV, what do they do? do they exchange link?

 

Interesting..When I first saw the post my immediate reaction was...search engines. This sounds like an excellent technique similar to quality link exchanges. In fact, I use the same type of method when trying to find quality link exchange partners.

 

This is everyone’s primary question when they’re starting out with JV’s…

“Where Do I Start?”

“And What’s the PROCESS?”

Here it is:


The first thing you need to do is nail down a solid offer. Why should someone partner with you?

Often, this involves hiring a copywriter and running a small ad campaign so that you can establish an effective conversion rate. Because 9/10 times, what your partners will want is to maintain their credibility while making guaranteed cash from a proven seller.

Once you have some numbers to work with, then you want to position your offer so that it’s unbeatable. This might mean that you’ll have to give up most of your profits, and it also might mean that you’ll have to add some more value to your product so that you can price it HIGHER.

(JV partners and Super-Affiliates will always head towards where the money is…)

Once it’s selling consistently on a small scale, and once you’ve put together a KILLER offer, then you need to build all of the mailings and other marketing materials in ADVANCE.

The more stuff you can provide for your partners - the BETTER.


Now, once you’ve got everything ready to go, what you’re going to do is approach at least 100 prospects that have a lot of marketing reach with a SHORT proposal that piques their interest. Be personal, be direct, and keep it very brief for your first contact.


You’ll get many “No’s”, a few “Send me more info” responses, and the odd “Yes”.

Follow up persistnely, and secure as many JV’s as possible. Secure a mailing date to kick things off with, and have viral ebooks, autoresponder plugs, articles and banners that they can put up as well to PERPETUATE their earnings (and yours).

It only takes a FEW decent-sized JV’s to really start things up, and one joint-venture will typically lead to a BUNCH of others - especially in the marketing niche.

So in summary, this is how i pull off a successful JV campaign:
—————————————————————-

1. Build the ultimate offer (proven seller, stats, unbeatable compensation, other incentives)
2. Prepare everything in advance (mailings, viral resources, articles, autoresponders, etc.)
3. Approach tons of partners that have substantial reach with a simple, short mini-proposal, asking if they’d like a copy of your course to review
4. Follow up like crazy. Be persistent
5. 5. Nail down mailing dates and establish long-term traffic streams
6. Flex the backend. Have upsells and additional offers ready to go, and over deliver in every way possible. Impress the hell out of your list.
7. Repeat steps 3-6

——————————————————–

That’s what has worked for me.

It varies industry to industry, but those are the fundamentals.

 

ok..just to add
for no.4, Follow up like crazy...i believe that you might have a good elaboration on this...you might sugest us to follow up ethically..i mean that we set every 3 days to follow up. if the period too close, people can get messed up with our email..and like to be forced.

 

Is the financial arrangement with a JV the same as an affiliate, eg. they get a percentage of only what they sell?

If so then is the only difference between the two being that a JV is just the agreement that they will mail their list?

 

Great JV tips, may I ask how do you get / search for JV partners ? It sounds cliche but there are tonnes of potential partners out there.

 

Recycling trafic is one of the way to turn one time targeted visitors into regular visitors for overtime such as retaining them through bookmarking site..

 

I will explain a case in point:

I own a traffic exchange and I have an online friend who owns a hosting company.

How did we become friends? He was on my list of people interested in traffic building and SEO. He asked questions and I gave him answers he needed. Over time we built a relationship as I helped him and he in return offered to help me.

So from this a JV was formed, I told him I wanted to offer his hosting service to my upgraded members, and he offered to give those members a discount on hosting as long as they were upgraded on my site.

I helped him by sending him new clients, and he helped me by being able to offer another great reason for my free members to upgrade.

This is just one example of how a JV formed and worked for me, it is different for everyone, but one point remains the same. It comes down to networking and building relationships with like minded individuals.

 

Great example John, thanks
