Hello all. I'm a down to earth fun loving guy who happens to be a dedicated Christian minister who loves his God, calling and family. I'm also an Internet Entrepreneur or Web-preneur if you will. Writing is and has always been an integral part of my life.
By now most of us know that the web is littered with ways to make money some legitimate and some not so much. The key to making money with any opportunity is always marketing. Without marketing no one knows you exist regardless of how cool or awesome your product or service may be. It has been said that promoting a product or service without marketing is like winking at a pretty girl in the dark. You know what you've done, but she doesn't have a clue because she can't see you. How do you turn on the light? Promote! Promote! Promote! Companies spend millions on this aspect of their business alone, but what if you don't have millions to spend?
Well that's exactly what this article is all about. The very first step in marketing your product or service is to create a viable marketing strategy. Thanks to the web, you don't have to be a Madison ave guru to do this. The web by it's very nature is viral so viral marketing only makes sense. There are many sites around that cater to this marketing genre, but one of the best known is Chris Masterson's Free Viral you can find him by logging on to http://www.freeviral.com/?r=241623. . It is 100% free, easy to use and produces tremendous results when done properly. Another way of promoting your product or service for free is through the creation of groups or clubs centered around the product or service you intend to promote.
All of the major search engines from Yahoo to Google will allow you to do this for free, but one of my favorites is Yahoo Groups. Yahoo groups allows for the creation of groups and is extremely flexible in the sense that it allows for the placement of banner ads promoting your product or service and even the ability to incentivise the group.
