Comments on: Marketing Outside The Lines http://www.onlineopportunity.org/marketing-outside-the-lines/ A Review of Ways to Make Money Online Thu, 20 Nov 2008 18:23:29 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: Jay http://www.onlineopportunity.org/marketing-outside-the-lines/#comment-28817 Jay Mon, 17 Mar 2008 02:23:17 +0000 http://www.onlineopportunity.org/marketing-outside-the-lines/#comment-28817 Hi Gerri, I'm glad the post helped! As far as sharing what works for me and what doesn't work, I'm still figuring that out. I do share bits and pieces in blog posts. For example, the Inbox Dollars post I made has worked out wonderfully in terms of recruiting referrals. Give people a step by step set of instructions that shows them exactly how to get a payout, and they'll join. What didn't work out so well there was the way that Inbox Dollars used to do their referral bonuses meant I made very little on those referrals. So while the marketing part of the equation was good, my homework on the benefits I'd get wasn't so good. (Inbox Dollars has changed their referral program since then, so that problem has gone away) I'm also learning a lot about how to market (and not market) a forum with <a href="http://advisory-panel.org">The Advisory Panel</a>. Eventually I'll do a post on what's worked and what doesn't. Hi Gerri, I’m glad the post helped! As far as sharing what works for me and what doesn’t work, I’m still figuring that out.

I need to do a lot of work when it comes to marketing and I will be looking to do it differently to everyone else. Any chance of you sharing what has and what hasn’t worked for you?

A good example of this is that everyone is marketing the same affiliate page on the traffic exchanges.The result is that only a few manage to get a sign up. Marketing outside the lines would be to create a separate website to promote the opportunity.This is what I do. Very good post!
