Hey Affiliate!

I'm thrilled that you've decided to join me in this endeavor. I hope you make tons of cash.

Here's where you'll find ads and articles and promo hints to help you sell more e-books. Couple guidelines:

1. You're free to use these promo materials to sell the book they were intended to sell. Please don't swipe them to use for your own products. Every product has a unique selling proposition and ads work best when they highlight each products USP.

2. Don't forget to insert your affiliate link where I've indicated. Clickbank does a fabulous job keeping track of your earnings but if you don't insert your personal link, you won't get credit for the sale. So again... remember to insert your link.

3. Have fun! Freelance writing is honestly the best profession anywhere. Have fun with this and enjoy the ride.

Here are some ads you can use. Tweak at will to best fit your audience. Feel free to run the articles as often as you'd like. I'll occasionally send you a "fresh" article you can use but (as always) be sure to use your affiliate link in the bio.

A Freelancer Secret Revealed

By Beth Ann Erickson

 

From what I’ve experienced, there are some heavy-duty insider secrets

that allow some writers to pull lucrative writing assignments towards

them on a on a consistent basis.

 

But you say writing isn’t about money.

 

I agree. It’s not. Most writers write for self-expression, to influence their

world, you name it, most writers do not write for the money.

 

However, a steady flow of income can have a profound affect on your writing

career.

 

I call this phenomenon the “High Profit Writing Lifestyle.”

 

What I love about this lifestyle is that I now have more than enough time

and plenty of incoming c ash so I can write whatever I want to.

 

Simply stated, the techniques I outline in a series upcoming articles

easily supports (what I call) my “fiction writing habit.”

 

Fiction writers make notoriously poor wages.

 

Not any more. Now you can write short-term high-paying lucrative projects

and devote the lion’s share of your time to the activities you love most.

 

It’s cool to allow my characters to rumble through my mind knowing that

I can afford to give them their voice, breathe life into their actions, and

transcribe their stories on paper.

 

Way cool.

 

And I’d hate for you to miss living your dream!

 

Believe me, there is NO shortage of high-paying freelance opportunities.

 

Your next big paycheck can be but a moment away.

 

That’s fantastic news because you can download this information in an

invaluable resource.

 

Imagine downloading an easy-to-digest resource, digging through it, and

within 24 hours you can plug in the techniques that’ll work with your own

personal style.

A Sweet Little Tip That’ll Keep Assignments Flowing Towards You In A

Rational, Predictable Manner

By Beth Ann Erickson

 

Your freelance business is just that: a business.

 

You may be chagrined to find out that just because you’re a fabulous writer,

agents, marketing managers, and editors won’t beat a path to your door. You

need to make all these people aware of the fact that you have something valuable

to offer them.

 

As a copywriter, you can do this by drafting a stellar sales letter promoting your services to local businesses. Get a mailing list from your Chamber of Commerce and start writing, revising, refining, folding, and licking envelopes.

 

You can also write an effective brochure to send to prospective clients.

 

Postcards mailed on a regular basis are a great way to keep in touch with clients as well.

 

Scour your local paper and find businesses that have an ad budget. If they

advertise regularly, chances are they have a budget. See if you can get a little

piece of it by writing effective copy for those ads.

 

Books like Jumpstart Your Writing Career and Snag Paying Assignments

(http://FilbertPublishing.com) have a ton of ideas on how to promote your

business.

 

You need to do the same thing when you’re contacting agents, editors, and

publishers. Contact them with a well-crafted query whenever you have a new

project to present to them. Your Writer’s Market should be tatters by the time the

new update is released.

 

If you don’t have a regular promotion plan, you won’t have regular work.

 

Let me repeat that: If you don’t have a regular promotion plan, you won’t have

regular work.

 

Decide how many queries you’ll send out on a daily basis. Then do it.

 

Sending out one query per day is better than sending a batch and sitting back and

waiting.

 

You get a rhythm in your career when you send out a set number daily. And

never miss a day. Even when you have so much work that you can’t see

straight… send out your set number of queries.

 

Do the same thing for sales letters. If you want copywriting assignments, you

need to send out those sales letters.

 

I send out a set number of queries and sales letters daily. Because copywriting

pays better than articles, I usually send out more sales letters than I do queries.

But I keep that number constant.

 

Oh… and always tweak your queries and sales letters. As your writing skills

grow, so will your promo skills.

 

Don’t expect perfection on anything you write. My first promo letter (quite

frankly) sucked. But it sucked less than my competitions. That’s how I started.

 

Since then I’ve poured thousands and thousands of dollars getting my hands on

the best materials that’ll give me the edge when it comes to competing for

writing projects. And every dollar I spend on honing my skills pays back in

spades.

 

Keeping your promo plan regular will keep your stream of work regular.

A Simple E-mail Technique Will Land More Paying Assignments

By Beth Ann Erickson

 

Never send an e-mail message without including a short message advertising your business. You can easily set up your e-mail program to insert an e-mail signature at the end of every message you send. Just dig through the “help” section of your e-mail program and you’ll very likely find step-by-step instructions to insert your benefit-oriented signature into every e-mail.

 

So… how do you go about writing a signature?

 

Here are a few basic rules to follow:

 

  1. Generally speaking, keep it short. No more than seven lines is the industry standard. Make your signature longer, and you’ll likely raise the ire of those e-mail recipients who are forced to slog through an over-long sales pitch.
  2. Make your signature benefit oriented. Don’t talk about yourself, write about what you can do for your reader.
  3. Keep it simple. Don’t try to advertise more than one item. I opt to promote my e-zine, Writing Etc. That way, if I gain a new subscriber, I can pitch our other products to them on a regular basis.

 

I once knew someone who considered themselves to be an effective marketer. They’d constructed a high-powered signature that hard sold everything from copywriting services to CDs to vitamins. Not surprisingly, that “power sig” didn’t sell much of anything.

 

Don’t make this mistake. Keep your signature simple. Ask for one and only one action on the part of your reader. If you have multiple books, send your prospective customer to your home page. Get ‘em to sign up for a zine. But only ask ONE thing of your reader. Ask for more and they’ll instantly ignore any direction from you.

 

That’s basically it! Just for your reference, here’s my standard e-mail signature that we’ve used for years:

 

Make Your Writing Sparkle.  Write Killer Queries.  Get Published. Subscribe to Writing Etc., the FREE e-mag for writers.  Receive the e-booklet "Power Queries" when you subscribe.  http://FilbertPublishing.com

 

 

Notice how the signature focuses on the reader, not on the zine. Also note the short sentences and the freebie thrown in for good measure. Also, see how it’s easy to read, it’s focused on one item, and best of all… it’s short.

 

Now… this signature’s been used for a long time. You may be wondering about ad fatigue.

 

Nope. After much testing, we haven’t found a signature that beats this one yet.

 

Model your signature after this one and your sales will spike. Guaranteed.
