Taking the correct steps to expand the volume of incoming traffic is the key to success. Over the years, several concepts have been designed to promote this. Many of the methods have proved ineffectual, demanding more new strategies! Making use of the giveaway event is one such strategy one can employ in order to increase leads and hence traffic. 

What’s a Giveaway Event?  

Giveaway events are where something free is provided so as to attract a large number of potential buyers and visitors, hence giving possible leads. This technique boosts sales and has been a much tried method in the real world, so it isn’t surprising that it’s being done online as well! 

There are various other ways to plan an online giveaway event. Here’s a basic method which can be modified and tweaked however much you want, suited to your needs: 

How to set up Giveaway Events 

• First, pick whatever you want to give away. It has to be something related to the business which shall be beneficial for your company as well. Giving away health and fitness related items like discounts coupons for health products is a nice way of increasing the credibility of your health and fitness business.

• Block a day for the event since giveaway events are meant to draw large crowds of people at a specific time for an interactive session. The place could be a community-based website.

How to Promote Giveaway Events 

• To promote the giveaway event one must set up a website since that will be a private as well as a public area on the world wide net. The public area is where the announcement for the giveaway will be put up. The announcement confirms the place and time as well as a section where members can register. Once registered they’ll receive a secret password which will be the key to the private area. This signing up of members will help you build a list of leads.

• Blogging, optimizing the giveaway website by putting them on search engines and setting up social networking sites can help promote the event and attract a lot of people in a short span of time.

• Let the advertising go viral and you’ll build a lead list in no time. All you have to do is tell your interested customers to let their friends know about the giveaway.

The actual event during the giveaway should take place within the private section of your website. Message boards and live chat rooms integrate contests and games with the private section. These contests add liveliness to the environment of the event. While establishing strong links with the potential members of your network, you can also promote and introduce your MLM or other business.

Good Luck!

To your success,

JV Giveaway Success

First things First!
Before you begin to earn money, you’ll need to get some paid or free web hosting with free auto-responders or you could pay for one. Once this is done, all you need to do is open a simple website.

How do you earn the Money?
As a JV partner, if you want to make some money, the first thing you have to do is find some item you could sell. The best place to sell the product is at a JV giveaway. Today, several marketers host JV giveaway events where you can participate.

After you’ve Joined the JV Giveaway
Once you’ve joined the giveaway, you’ll need to find products that are not that commonly searched for or have been recently made. Try to gather about 10 such products so that you can give away 3 and keep the rest to make sure your package sells.

You’ll need to create a giveaway page, a simple sales page for the one time offer (OTO) and in the end, a page saying thank you, to be successful. JV giveaways nowadays mostly have the box where one can enter one’s email id which then gets added to a list, hence doing away with the idea of a page for signups.

The Role of an Autoresponder

The next step is to find a means of gathering email addresses. A free or paid auto-responder service on your website can be of great help since it’ll host a script onto your website. Getting paid auto-responders like Aweber is preferred, but if you’re working on a fixed budget free auto-responders are advised.

Look for free auto-responders to use on your giveaway webpage by doing a simple search on Google. There’ll be a lot of result pages, but the best are those which don’t send you advertisements via email.

Now you’ll need to have some sort of webpage hosting service. If you have a host already you won’t need another, but for those who don’t have one try Dream Host. In case you can’t pay for the web hosting, look for a site that does not display ads on your page.

Now all you need to do is make the sales page which will be used for the OTO. Make the OTO to the point and short. A header, a small opening paragraph, a list of benefits, the list of products and a short description, an order link with a guarantee and a conclusion make up this page! Members will see this page before getting their free products. This is one way of making money fast from giveaways.

Keep these basic pointers in mind in order to participate successfully in the next JV giveaway event.

Good Luck!
