We help many new entrepreneurs develop their own products, write ebooks, create reports, generate training programs such that they quickly have their own high, medium or low-ticket products to sell online.
Having your own product is the key to making serious money with your own online business…but it doesn’t happen automatically. First you need to get the attention of your market.
Just as important though is how you get traffic to your websites that sell your own , or other people’s products when you have to start from scratch – no visitors, no traffic, no sales and no awareness in your niche market.
The good news is that you can do it – and often within a couple of weeks you can dramatically go from “lost in the web” to consistent traffic and sales with just a few key steps.
Those steps to getting traffic to your new website are:
1.Create Content – Blog & Articles
Create a new blog and share stories/content about aspects of this “new” market for you including how you have used the product you speak about – try and blog once a day for the next few weeks (even if it’s just a few paragraphs) targeting keywords that are in line with what people would use to seek out the product you speak about online.
2.Go Social – Where Your Market Is
Build a social networking presence around the market (Twitter, Facebook at least – LinkedIn possibly as well) and also use your Twitter/FB accounts to launch social bookmark accounts with Digg, Delicious, SU, Reddit, etc… then each piece of content you can share via FB and Twitter, bookmarked with Digg, etc… to help drive some additional traffic plus legit backlinks
3.Get Involved
Post in related forums a couple times each day with helpful advice and post a link back to your site (either affiliate link or ideally your site where you capture contact information)
4. Create Interest and Automatically Capture Top Leads
Create squeeze page (basically a landing page with a giveaway – hard to know what that could be without knowing your market or product, but there is always a way to put together a quick report, listing, video, etc… to capture name/contact info of those you send toward the page (from your blog, social networks, forums…)
5.Turn Interest Into Sales
Develop an email follow-on sequence (start with 5-7 emails) that follow up on the offer from your landing page and in each one, link back to your affiliate offer
6. YouTube – Use It To Generate Powerful Leads and Sales
Youtube – your unique perspective is that you already know, use or understand how the product benefits others – create a series of 3-5 minute videos where you can share information and utility of your products. In your YouTube description, link back to your squeeze page.
Follow this formula when you have a new product to sell on your website (this system works equally well when you are selling your own products or when you are pre-selling affiliate or partner offers)
