Using Freebies to Promote Business

Wikipedia defines 'free' as something given or supplied without payment (also called gratis). Gratis is the process of providing goods or services without compensation. It is often referred to in English as "free of charge" (FOC) or "complimentary". I just googled the word 'free' and got over 3 Billion entries. I wonder if internet marketing can survive without the many so-called 'free' offers that permeate it.

The most powerful word in marketing is FREE!!! It is used in marketing everywhere and all the time. It is most honestly used when the offer is of goodvalue and is actually free. If you have to buy something else to get it or payexcessive 'shipping & handling' the offer is really phony. The Japanese say
that free is the most expensive.

Place Millions of Free Ads

In a standard business model goods and services are exchanged for monetary compensation. It would destroy this business model if companies offered goods and services free of charge although limited amounts of free goods are often given for promotional purposes. This is done in order to generate media coverage for their products and to encourage prospective buyers.

In the world of marketing free usually means the product or service offered is in fact a loss leader. This means in order to receive it you must give out contact information (like email, home address and phone number). This allows the givers permission to send you further offers using your info. Very often your personal info is sold to hundreds of spammers and telemarketers resulting in barrages of unsolicited email and annoying telemarketing calls.

The free offer market is all about generating leads and you have to be careful as to what you are actually paying to get something free. You must consider the value of your contact information weighed against the value of the free service you are being offered. You have a right to know how the owner of the free site is going to use your information.

Having said all of the above it is only fair to concede there are an enormous number of great free offers out there for the taking. So just use common sense plus spam protection and you will be fine!

Importance of Leads in Internet Marketing

HELLO ALL! How are you today? As Craig Ferguson likes to say: "Its a Great Day for America". I couldn't agree more! I once worked with a Japanese team of engineers whose manager lead us in morning exercises and always said: "Every Day is A New Day". This has become my mantra!

In the field of online marketing every day requires new leads. Leads, of course, being the life blood of successful marketing. A very good source of daily leads is a website called Free FFAs - a Veretekk automated marketing tool available at No Cost. Today I received 1691 leads from this system and yesterday about 2000. This is pretty much the normal daily yield of fresh leads. This is a no cost Veretekk tool which you too can utilize - Just Click Here!

Veretekk systems collect daily leads that are posted to our FFA systems. Name, email address, ip address and date stamp are available for download. But be sure to uphold the rules and regulations of contacting these leads before attempting to market to them. Today I received 1691 leads from this system and yesterday about 2000. This is pretty much the normal daily yield of fresh leads. This is only one of the many effective Veretekk Tools.

Buying and selling leads no longer works at all. There is an ethics issue with the entire process in my opinion. This process requires the capturing of peoples' personal information - for example: name, address, city, state, zip, phone,email.

When you buy a batch of leads, 100 other people are also buying these leads. And you are competing against a barrage of pitches they are receiving. Even if you are lucky enough to call first THEY DO NOT KNOW WHO YOU ARE and very likely they DO NOT REMEMBER giving anyone permission to sell their information.

As I write this (while watching CNN) I notice president Obama is speaking in Buffalo New York this afternoon. He has pointed to limited progress in the battle against recession - mentioning encouraging new job creation and emphasizing the role of small business in the recovery. My associates in small business online marketing tell me they have experienced no recession in their internet business. This supports my suggestion that now is a very good time to create your own online job and be the boss.
