Skyrocket Your Sales With Advanced Viral Marketing Strategies...
Definition of Viral Marketing
Here is your definition of Viral Marketing.
Viral marketing is a marketing strategy that motivates individuals to pass on some kind of a marketing message to other people in return for something like a free ebook, referrals etc. This kind of a strategy creates a buzz around the product/service.
In the offline world, this is known as "Word-of-mouth" or "Network Marketing". This essentially acts like a 'virus', spreading the message to the masses, made popular by MSN's (now Bing) free hot-mail service.
Famous marketing gurus Jimmy D. Brown & Ryan Deiss have thoroughly analyzed viral marketing
in their e books, "Niche Factors" and "Viral e Book Brainstorm".

The Essential Elements in Viral Marketing In order to effectively implement a viral marketing campaign, you need to have some key elements build into it.
What are those key elements?
1 - Freebies (Give away free products/services) >Top<
"FREE" is the most powerful word that draws in huge crowd. It essentially plays on human psychology and is also a highly potential "Internet Marketing Strategy".
Successful online marketers have used this strategy to the fullest extent. Most of the viral marketing campaigns have this key element incorporated into their marketing strategy.
They give away value added products, eBooks, newsletters, tools, software, services etc., in return for the freebie hunter's email and contact address.
The emails and contacts harvested through this technique is then later on used to up-sell low to high value products or services. Thus making money on the back end.
This is a very effective way for “Lead Generation” and building mail lists. I have my mail list tripled using this strategy.
Remember, "THE MONEY IS IN THE LIST".
It is your warm market to promote to any time you want.
At the same time, your mail list is like a double edged sword. It can also harm you if not done properly.

Leveraging on Your Existing Communication Network
Most of the folks lead very active social life. Scientific studies tell us that almost every individual on an average has a network of about 4 to 12 people as their close family and friends.
Some individuals and popular personalities have a wide network of people, family and friends. People working as waiters or bar tenders, for example, may communicate regularly with hundreds of customers every week.
Network marketers and “MLM” businesses have long understood the power of these human networks. No different here.
A successful online marketer taps into this source and is able to generate viral leads and referrals for his or her internet business through his or her network of people. In the online world this is accomplished through viral emails, viral videos, viral eBooks etc.
I will go over the sneaky and advanced techniques in the links at the end of this page.
Please visit them regularly as the pages will be continuously updated.
3 - Easily Communicable and Transferable
An easily transferable message is like a virus. Remember the virus season? A virus spreads across when it is easily transmittable, through touch, sneeze, cough etc.
Your viral marketing message should be exactly like this. Easily transmittable and communicable.
There are number of ways you can communicate your message to your network. Examples would be:
-> Emails through auto-responders
-> Your web site pages or squeeze pages
-> Free down-loadable e books, graphic, software etc. with reseller rights
-> Viral videos
-> Social media and forum discussions
-> Sales funnels (extremely effective and rewarding) etc. The point to note here is that, your marketing message should be very simple, effective and easily communicable.
Your message should not get lost on the public during the process and should retain its integrity from beginning to end.
4 - Scalable
Scalability of your marketing model is crucial for success with this strategy.
Now, take the hot-mail example itself. It requires its own mail servers to house and handle the vast email accounts and its speedy delivery. In order for this to handle its growth, numerous mail servers are required and readily available.
So you need to plan well ahead your strategy and resource requirements.
You must also consider at this time various hosting and outsourcing options. More on that later.
5 - Leverage on Human Psychology (Human Tendencies & Behavioural Pattern)
This is my favourite topic. Playing on human psychology is "The Numero Uno" skill you need to have to stay in this game and make it BIG.
Clever viral marketing plans take advantage of this strategy.
What is the craze Now? iPhones, iPads etc., right? What is the ‘psychological, factor behind it?
None other than "the desire to look cool" isn't it?.
This is a common human tendency. The desire to look cool, possess something invaluable and then to be proud of that, the longing to be popular, praised, loved etc.
The passion, desire and urge to inform and communicate over the internet, generates countless websites and email messages.
Strategically place yourself to build on human tendencies, motivations and behaviours and develop a viral marketing plan for the transmission of your marketing messages, and you have a "Winner".
There are various resources available on the net about selling to human psychology, otherwise known as "Copy-writing".
I have read a number of eBooks about this. But found success with only a couple of them worth mentioning. I also enrolled myself into coaching and training programs provided by respectable online marketers.

PLR (Private Label Rights) product: PLR eBooks are the best way to start. Why? Because, you can get them from various sources for reasonable price. This makes a great product to be given to your visitors as freebies. You include your PLR on your website as a down-loadable item on your "opt-in" form. Make sure that the PLR is highly relevant to your website topic and will add value to your reader. The reader will provide his/her contact details in exchange for the freebie. There, you have a list now. But let me also tell you this. You must spin the content to make it look unique and truly you. It should be different from several others using the same PLR content. This is extremely important. Your PLR content should be highly relevant to your product/service and must add value to your reader. Auto-responder: For your viral marketing campaign, this tool has to be there. You will setup a series of sequential emails, after your visitor provides you with his/her contact address.
You will now start recommending your own products/services or affiliate products and start making money from the back end. But note that, you will not probably make any sale until after you have sent out about 6 to 8 emails to your customer. So be ready for that. But this is a great and effective way to make sales from your visitors. This is covered in detail in Email Marketing.
