Where to Advertise the SFI Opportunity: Part 2

March 16, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment 

Think newsletters! Hundreds of thousands of Websites publish newsletters that they they send to their subscribers daily, weekly, or monthly. Many Websites feature a newsletter signup link on their homepages. When you find one, contact the Webmaster and ask if they will run an ad for you in their newsletter.

Here again, you may be amazed at how cheap newsletter advertising can be, and yet many of these newsletters have a large and dedicated readership. That is, they have a LOT of subscribers, and their subscribers carefully read every issue of the newsletter (including your ad).

For sample ads you can use to attract new SFI affiliates or to refer new TC customers, see the Sponsor text ads and/or the Refer text ads pages.

Or, if you’re a Team Leader, you can submit your own ads at:

https://www.sfimg.com/Input/ShowAdApproval.sfi

By the way, just as the first strategy created FREE Website advertising for you, so too can this create FREE newsletter advertising for you. Just remember to be patient in soliciting the newsletter publishers. Start running your ads BEFORE you ever bring up joining SFI, and when you do, do it tactfully. If they see it, they’ll get involved. If they don’t, that’s OK too.

Here are a couple more tips related to newsletter advertising:

A. Generally, you’ll get a much rate by agreeing to run your ad in multiple issues as opposed to just one issue. Be sure to check on this. Running an ad multiple times is also important because most people dismiss an ad the first time they see it. It may take five to seven exposures before the reader decides you must be legit or you wouldn’t keep advertising and actually inquires.

B. If the newsletter doesn’t accept advertising, ask if you could “sponsor” the newsletter. That is, at the top or bottom of every issue, it would say something like,

Southwest Garden Tips Newsletter is sponsored by
SFI
200 Countries. 24/7 Income.™

Where to Advertise The SFI Opportunity: Part 1

March 16, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment 

Where can I advertise to get good results?

A: Here’s the thing. If we were to tell all of our affiliates to advertise at Website XYZ, that Website would instantly and immediately be reduced to no value for anyone. Like a good fishing hole, if everyone fishes there, there will no longer be any fish to catch for anyone. Hence, we simply cannot recommend specific places to advertise.

That said, here are a some tips for finding good advertising sources:

1. There are BILLIONS of Websites and blogs. Use a search engine like Google to find Websites and blogs that interest you. Now start surfing. When you find one you like and/or that you know has a good amount of traffic, contact the Webmaster (there’s usually a “Contact Us” link in the footer or header of most sites) and ask about advertising on their site. You might be shocked at how cheap you can get banners on some fairly high traffic sites.

Also, don’t be surprised if some of the Websites you start advertising on decide to become affiliates themselves (sponsored by you of course). Each time this happens, you will have just created FREE (which is even better than cheap) advertising for your business!

Note: Do NOT broach the topic of them joining SFI initially or they will consider your contact to actually be SPAM and they will probably report you as a spammer. Get your ad on their site first. Later, you can start dropping a few hints (e.g. “By the way, you might want to consider allowing me to sponsor you in SFI. It’s free to join, but I can show you how you can earn about $60 a year on each person who signs up from your Website.”). You can have them sign up immediately under you by clicking on your banner on their Website.

Over time, you could have dozens or even hundreds of popular Websites carrying your banner ads for FREE—generating a commission check that grows and grows every month.
