Be Willing To Work For
Free
If
you are new to Internet Entrepreneurship, this can be
hard to absorb. You might reason with yourself that you
are in business and not charity. That thought came
across my mind once.
The Wonders of Giving
Something Away For Free
Let’s
face it – shoppers on the web love getting something for
nothing. So do not disappoint them. Give them what they
want. Still do not see the point? Alright.
The
benefit of giving something away for free is that you
can use the E-mail addresses you receive with entries
for future mailings such as newsletters and follow-ups
related to your products and services.
Case Study – The
Supermarket Nearest To You
I am
sure that you have seen people giving out free samples
of their products such as chocolates, drinks, etc. at
the supermarket. You have probably sampled them, too.
You
see, the companies selling those products are first
proving their worth to potential customers shopping at
the supermarket. If they like the product, they will
surely want more of it thus they will buy it!
How This Same Concept
Applies Into Your Internet Business
That
brings to point no. 2 – giving something away for free
allows you to prove your worth. The advantage of an
Internet Business is that unlike conventional
businesses, you do not have to spend a lot of money on
giving out sample products online. In fact, it can be
done at zero cost!
Sharing your expertise freely in your newsletters and
offering people to try out your services for free would
keep your prospects away from sitting on the fence or
feeling indecisive about contracting with you.
If
done correctly, the freebie you gave away can be viral.
That means the person who downloaded your freebie will
give away to a friend who will in turn give to another.
This is called “viral marketing”. This is will
indirectly increase your credibility and a higher chance
to make your sales.
For
example, if you a write a free report on a subject in
the form of an E-book, you can include your product
sales letters at the back of the report. With many
visitors downloading your free report, this will raise
your chances of making sales.
Working For Free
Regardless of any type of business you are into, you
have to work for free in the initial stages of your
business. If you are starting a conventional business,
you will need to invest time, money and effort into
starting one in your spare time. You also know that you
will not make money until the business is ready.
The
Internet Business is not much different. You will need
to invest the same entities into making your Internet
Business a success. However, the Internet Business
offers advantages over a Conventional Business whereby
you do not require THOUSANDS of dollars to invest in and
you can give something away free in unlimited numbers
with little effort and no money on your part (e.g. free
reports, trial software, etc.).
If
you want to create success on the Internet then consider
working for free. With a little generosity, rather than
to receive and you shall give, you should give and you
shall receive.
