90 Start a free-to-join business association from

your web site. Just ask all members to place your

association logo and link on their web site. For

example, if you had 1000 members, that would be

1000 people indirectly promoting your web site

without paying them affiliate commissions.

91 Make extra revenue by selling advertising space

on your web site, in your e-zine, in your free e-books,

on your classified ad site, etc. For example, you

could have a list of all the spaces your visitors could

advertise and the price of each space.

92 Switch your marketing plan when your market

dies for your product. Be flexible and redesign your

product for a different market. For example, if your

e-book is about starting an accounting business, you

could rewrite it for a gardening business.

93 Make your web site worth revisiting. Give your

visitors original content, free e-books, information

web site links, free useful software, etc. For example,

if thousands of other web sites are promoting the

same free e-book and that's what you're promoting

too, people are likely to have already downloaded it

and won't visit your web site.

94 Build your opt-in e-mail list using an FFA (free-forall links page). People can submit links to your links

page and you can send them a thank you e-mail. For

example, you could say, "Thanks for placing a link on

my web site. I would also like to tell you about a new

product we just released…"

95 Reward your customers for giving you product

feedback. It could be discounted products, useful

software, information products, etc. For example,

you could say, "Anyone who gives us helpful feedback

on how to improve our product will get a free business

e-book."

96 E-mail each visitor a satisfaction questionnaire

after they purchase. This will allow you to improve

your order system, customer service, site, etc. For

example, you could say, "Thank you for ordering. So

we can improve our business in the future for you,

can you please take a few minutes to fill out this

satisfaction questionnaire?"

97 Give a percentage of your profits to a cause your

customers would like. It could be a charity, school,

environmental improvements, etc. For example, you

could say, "Our business will donate $2.50 from each

product sold to the local library to help teach kids how

to read."

98 Take harsh criticism the right way and improve

your online business. Don't get down in the dumps,

improve the situation so it doesn't happen again.

For example, if someone e-mails and says, “I think

your product stinks because your instructions are

impossible to understand!”, you should find a

way to make the instructions clearer.

99 Try bartering before you buy services, supplies

and equipment for your business. You can use the

extra money you save on advertising your business.

For example, you could trade advertising instead of

paying for it. You could use the extra money you

save to upgrade your web site, product or customer

service.

100 Give away a follow-up e-mail course on an

autoresponder. Include your ad with each lesson.

People will buy quicker when they see your ad repeatedly. For example, how many times have you

bought something because you have seen the advertisement on TV over a period of a few of weeks?

Thanks for the tips provided.

It would be good if you edited this for layout and presentation as it is a bit difficult to read.

Cheers
