Have you ever taken part in a Joint Venture? Not sure what one is? There are many different types and these are often very varied in how the Joint Venture is managed.
There are several different types. The most straight forward type of Joint Venture (JV) is where you promote another persons product in exchange for an affiliate income, this is often set by the owner of the product and is typically 50% of the sale price of the product.
It is possible to promote other persons products by a simple e-mail approach, you may get no response but all you have lost is the time to compose an e-mail. On the other hand your proposition may be welcome and you can engage in a profitable JV partnership which may well last longer than the promotion that you start with.
There is another type of JV which is banner exchange, here you exchange banners for each others websites which promote each others products.
Another type is the giveaway event which is a way of promoting your product by giving away a gift or gifts in return for an optin to your mailing list. This type of venture is an easy way of getting your product noticed in the market place. Each giveaway has different rules and there are many such events that run during the year, so that you will have to take note of the specific requirements for each one.
Today I want to promote giveaway events that will take place in January 2010 (it’s nearer than you think!). In essence you need some form of gift or gifts to giveaway; it can be eBooks, video, and audio whatever. Make sure that it is useful; I always try to give incredible value. In return you get to capture the e-mail address of whoever wants to download your gift.
If your gift is an eBook you can put in your own affiliate links and/or make the book rebrandable. Rather than got into any more detail why not click the banner and read all about it for yourself?
I am giving away some of my products in two giveaways, you can get the information by clicking the banner links. The first one is Self Improvement Gifts which runs from Jan 5th until Jan 19th 2010
The second one is called the Naked Giveaway and runs from Mon 11th Jan until 25th Jan 2010
Try them out and reach a wider market for your products
