Offline Selling Without Money:
When you are looking to promote ClickBank/PayDotCom or any affiliate program here are some offline tips.
Choose products that appeal to people and tell it in person. Phone, friend, in a line at a grocery store, on a bus, in the park. Just let your imagination go wild with this one.
Give them a link. Get a TinyUrl at http://tinyurl.com/ test the link before you use it just to make sure it works. Pass the TinyURL to a lot of people. The more the merrier. Put in on bulletin boards around your town. With a TinyURL or some other service like it you don’t even need your own website.
Enter your link in the “Enter a long URL to make tiny” box then click on “Make Tiny URL!” and a TinyURL is created just for you.
An example of a TinyURL is http://tinyurl.com/p87tr this url links to http://bbracken.burnthefat.hop.clickbank.net which is to “Burn the Fat” a top selling eBook on Fat Burning Secrets of the Worlds Best Body Builders and Fitness Models. The advantage of using a TinyURL link is that it’s simple for people to write down and you to remember. Plus an added benefit is that affiliate pirates cannot steal your commissions by changing the affiliate information in the link to their affiliate id.
Another example of a TinyURL is http://tinyurl.com/f3y2b this URL links to http://bbracken.4idiots.hop.clickbank.net is to “Fat Loss 4 Idiots” another top selling eBook the description is “Download the Idiot-Proof Diet within 60 seconds - and look good in the mirror again”.
or recognize the affiliate link you will lose out.
Share the link. Get out of the house this reduces depression (if you have any J ). When you talk to the person about a link they now know the link has a face associated with it. Once a person is familiar with you, your promotion becomes a warm market. Much easier to sell.eZine Advertising - $2.00 an ad per eZine with up to 1,000,000 readers.

More Tips on Marketing
Decide and study who your target market is. Also decide how you are going to reach to them (without spamming, of course).
Announce and promote the product in your mailing list. The bigger and more responsive your subscriber list is, the more sales you can make. You can make your money within hours.
And always refrain from spamming!
This is because most of the Traffic Exchange members, like yourself are either webmasters or Internet Marketers. Members like you surf Traffic Exchange programs to earn credits so that others can visit their own site. Very likely, no members of Traffic Exchange programs are in the mood to purchase anything through the web pages seen in Traffic Exchange programs. But if you are going to use this method make sure you are advertising something that is irresistible to a web site owner or marketer. Make sure that the product or service benefits him/her so as to make him/her more money when marketing their web site or a product that makes them a boat load of money.
Writing Articles
Writing articles is a great way to drive traffic to your website, get established as an expert in your field and get your name out to thousands of people which will establish credibility.
Make an effort to include a few vital keywords in every article you write.
After you write your articles, submit them to article directories such as www.ezinearticles.com, www.goarticles.com, and www.articlecity.com.
Include a short description of yourself and a link to the product’s sales letter in your resource box. Interested e-zine publishers will take and reprint your article(s) in their own e-zines, giving you exposure and if done right, this method can generate targeted traffic to your affiliate links. To have this done right, your article must provide useful information and is of the same theme as the product you are promoting.
Submission to article directories is often free but some may require some money to list.

Paid eZine Advertising:
ClickBank/PayDotCom literally have thousands of products you can use. What about posting a advertisement with your link on a pet shop bulletin board. People buy eBooks on pet training, dog training, how to make you cat live longer etc.
Why not post an advertisement in a laundry mat, grocery store or just about any where you can post a card or 3 x 5 inch card. Many are interested in health issues, lose weight, cure bad breath, stop cancer etc.
Do businesses need Anti-Virus Programs and Spyware Removal? Yes. Leave a business card with a link a product that would interest them. A good selection of products can be found at either Clickbank or PayDotCom.
What other products could a business use? Do some research and then present the product to them.
Free source of Business Cards: www.vistaprint.com you can get 250 of them for free. (There is an advertisement on the back of the cards but free is good.)
Have you thought of creating cheap flyers? Why not try an experiment and go from door to door with them. Take a flyer to businesses in your area.
What about putting you TinyURL on you car, truck, your garage door or just about anywhere you can. Find a sign maker and ask them to make a vinyl decal (Note: There may be a small cost to making the decal.) that you can put on your car, sign or just about anything. Remember dark car, light colored letters and light colored car, dark letters. Window lettering always use lettering such as white, yellow or a light color since dark colors like black will not show up at a distance.
