7 secrets of using guarantees to increase your sales
You can make it easy for people to buy your product or service by taking the risk out of their decision
Based on the techniques of hypnosis and Neuro-linguistic Programming, you want them to picture in their mind what it will be like in the future after they have bought it.
It may be difficult for them to do that if there is too much risk involved so your marketing task is to remov the risk.
The way you do that is through some sort of guarantee.
Most potential buyers will be a bit skeptical of buying whatever you sell and a guarantee removes a significant part of their risk.
People want to know that you will “put your money where your mouth is.” If you have confidence in your own product or service, this will help your customers feel at ease, leading to more sales.
For this reason, the concept of “risk reversal” is crucial.
If you can’t stand behind your offer of promo keychains with a guarantee of some sort, people are likely to purchase from someone who does. So make sure you don’t help the competition by missing out this part of your offer.
Some people are too scared to offer a guarantee as they worry that people will take them up on it.
The reality is that some will but, provided you deliver good quality and don’t make unjustified claims, you will win more business by having the guarantee than you will lose in this way.
Here are 7 secrets of making your guarantee as powerful as possible.
1. Promote the value of your guarantee: Specify the details as though it is another product that adds value to your offer. Spell it out in plain, simple English. Make sure it is “no questions asked” to help put your customers at ease. (more…)

You Have to Invest in Making Money Online Part 2
In my previous article, I started with PPC-advertising. Take really good time in investigating PPC-advertising by teaming up with people or your company. The number one tool is to find keywords that attract more valuable traffic to your website. That is a money-investment.

When you decide to write articles, it’s a free way to advertise. But to leverage your time in article writing, you can choose for a tool that can submit your articles to many publishers. Write one article, submit it and you will see your articles going to different publishers in one click. (more…)

Internet Authors don’t use quills
In the 1980s I was a member of an active writing circle. We were discussing that old chestnut, ‘how to write’, and one member proudly said that he couldn’t be bothered with these new-fangled word processors that were just about starting to appear in offices and homes. No, he said, he had an electric typewriter. That was good enough for him. It did all he wanted to do and produced submittable copy. He had got used to it, it suited him and he was happy to stick with it. Other, more modern members, saw the benefits of computer technology and were anxious to talk about which machine to buy, value for money, and suppliers. (more…)

How To Increase Your Website Traffic For Free
Search engine marketing is an incredibly lucrative and incredibly under-utilized aspect of any online marketing campaign.

Ezine Marketing: 3 Essential Components Required to Make More Sales From Your Email Newsletter
Contrary to popular opinion, marketing by email newsletter is not yet dead, despite the pervasiveness of blogs and social networking. What I like best about ezines is that I have a list of people who like, know and trust me, so anytime I do something, such as offer a teleclass or a product for sale, they are a ready, willing, and responsive target market.
Several years ago when I debated about eliminating my ezine from my marketing mix and substitute a blog instead, I heard a very strong and resounding “No!” from my readers. (more…)

Internet Authors are protest writers
Traditional Publishers take ages to notice a trend. In the 1980s it was so-called ‘Magical Realism’ that had to be around for a while before the people who put the books out noticed what it was. In the 1990s it was the worrying wave of ‘Tragic Childhoods’ books – a series of stories that the public have been snapping up in Britain. After the sales went into the millions, it finally dawned on publishers that they had a new trend on their hands and they started looking for authors to meet the demand. In English bookshops there is now usually a whole section devoted to this area, right next to Crime Fiction, Romance, SF and horror, and so on.
In the noughties, the new trend comprises a group of so-called ‘Protest Novelists’. Also called ‘Challenging Writers’ in the US – because these authors tend to challenge the Status Quo in many areas, such as economics, politics and society – these creators have come up with a series of novels that question everything. In the age of George Bush, they are, perhaps, reacting to the lacklustre but massive conservatism of the American establishment, and are looking outwards to examples of other ways of doing things. In the first Superman film in the 1980s, the Man of Steel was happy to endorse ‘Truth, Justice and the American Way’. Challenging Writers are happy with the first two eternal verities, but are starting to ask whether the third always leads to the other two. That’s one question, but there’s plenty more. In the new era, niche publications such as Orlando vacations can find their followers easily.
It may not be a coincidence that the emergence of this New Wave of novelists coincides with a renewed interest in the film arena with the world of the 1960s. A recent film has been looking at the early career of Bob Dylan, illuminating his break with Protest Songs and his move into the electric field of pop music. It happened, and the experience is a deeply moving memory for many older people. Strangely, the audiences at that movie are of all ages. It’s not just the Hippies of the Flower Era that ache for some sort of critical examination of today’s political standards, it seems. The new generations too are keen to work with books and films and songs that don’t just tell stories, but ask ‘why’ such things are happening.
Traditional Publishers can’t cope. For many years now, any submission that smacked of ‘politics’ has been thought of as suspect. The people who occupy the high-rise offices of the large publishing firms are themselves part of the ‘Establishment’. Why would they want writers asking them what they are doing? Many Protest Novelists are finding a less than warm reception in these plush suites and are having to look elsewhere for exposure. No wonder that many are turning to the world of Internet Publishing. Any author with a story to tell can log themselves on to a print-on-demand site like Lulu and get their books ‘into print’ within days. Then, armed with a few copies, the Challenging Writers can hawk their samples around friends and relatives and find out whether their ideas are striking a chord. Of course they are. The world we live in is changing, and not necessarily for the better. Readers, like writers, have questions, and are happy to have their brain cells exercised by writing that isn’t simply mass entertainment and suffocating adventurist nonsense.
Who knows how many years it will take for Traditional Publishers to notice this new trend. Then, when the light starts to go on in their heads, the focus of their attention will no doubt be – as it always is – sales, and not content. If the new school of Protest Novelists starts to make a big impression on the reading public and sees their circulation grow into the thousands, then publishers will do what they have always done – wade in with their chequebooks at the ready. They will sign up the star names of the movement, and maybe even claim to have ‘discovered’ the new genre. Sound familiar? It’s what the record companies did in the 1960s, to people more or less like Bob Dylan, and if you’ve seen the new film, you’ll know exactly what I mean. For the reader now, as it was for the listener back then, the choice is much more simple. Does the work on offer mean anything to me? If so, then the new novels will find a welcoming audience, who will grow with time, happy to join in the debates that this sort of book is trying to inspire.
