Customers As Your Viral Affiliates
Should You Get A Blog?A blog is a type of website. It allows the website owner to easily write messages that get posted to the site ..... ...... on using a shopping cart into which you can insert a discount code. That you can get in many places. And you can even get one free at http://www.chamberofcommerce.pl/own_store
For a model, you can use the affiliate program at http://www.qlbr.com/aff_shoppoland_program . Use the concept and make your own marketing materials. Note that it just uses a simple free form for affiliate applications and the store that it promotes uses the free shopping cart mentioned in the paragraph above.
But back to the private sale and your customers as viral marketers.
There are many ways to get your customers started.
Email, of course, is of the first. Just send the information about a special offer to your mailing list. Email is fast, direct and you can generally predict a response rate.
A postcard is second. Postcards have legs. Unlike email that gets deleted, and web page addresses that are forgotten, postcards hang around. They get read, they get filed, they get put on refrigerators and they get results. They are particularly attractive when they make your customer feel important by telling the customer that this is a private sale. Customers respond.
The real money comes with the follow up email or postcard with a special offer for a unique and special item that is available only to people who are on your list.
As you develop your viral marketing business model, you will develop tactics and strategies that keep your customers telling others about the special deals that they are getting through you.
And you will find that your customers are the best viral marketers that you have.
