The Power of FREE - Marketing Article

By:Kristy A. Taylor

Every single day thousands of people from around the world are
logging on to the Net for the very first time. Every single day
thousands of people from around the world are attempting to
factualize their dream of running an Internet business from home.
And every single day, these same thousand people are searching
the Net for that ultimate product or service that will BE their
home business.
Would you love to be the one selling these same people the
products and services that they need? I'll just bet you would!
But firstly you need to get these peoples' attention. You want
them to visit your site but so does every other marketer out
there. What you need is a lure... a bait! Surveys have shown for
years that the one word that gets peoples attention is the word -
sex! Yes, sex... but we're not going to use this word, (tricked
you didn't I) we are going to use the second most popular word -
free!
Free, free, FREE, fReE... it doesn't matter how you say it, it
always means the same thing - some item of some description is
going to cost you: nilch, nadda, nitch, nill, etc... You know it
won't cost you anything and if it is something that you can use
in your business, something that will help with some aspect of
running your business, then you are more than likely going to
take those few seconds to click on that link, fill in your email
address, and grab your 'freebie'. You know you're going to do it
if it's something that you want, so you know that others will
too. A 'freebie' will go a long way towards gaining new
customers. Offer them something for free that directly relates to
your web site and watch your customer base grow!
