I have updated my J V Giveaways page and it now has links to a total of 13 Giveaway events some already underway with the remainder to start for members during March.

The Giveaways that have not yet started are looking for contributors and some are offering cash or prizes for the top recruiters.

I have signed up as a contributor in a number of these Giveaways and expect to build my list bigger and bigger as long as the giveaways run.

To check them out go to the JV Giveaways Tab at the top and click it.

Each Giveaway has a load of products for you to download totally FREE ranging from, ebooks, audios, videos and one Giveaway only has MRR/PLR products on it.

Why you’ll love using events like the Valentine’s Giveaway to build your list.

This Giveaway starts in 6 days so get in now as a contributor.

Everybody in Internet marketing agrees that ‘the money is in the list’.

From day one, you need to be capturing leads and then communicating with your sign-ups effectively.

In fact, the list building is almost more important that the website … and you don’t actually have to own a website to start this essential process.

A well-established way of list building is the Joint Venture Giveaway, and you can see one that I’m currently involved with here:

http://new-jv-talent.com/valentine/go/247/jv

Giveaways dominate in the Internet Marketing niche, but also flourish in other popular niches like Health and MLM/Network Marketing.

In this case, the Giveaway is concentrating on video training resources.

The basic process is this:

# A hosts sets up and advertises a JV Giveway event

# Contributors sign up and add their ‘gifts’ to the website … these are usually e-books, software packages, audios or videos

# These gifts are usually offered free of charge, but members have to sign up to the contributor’s email list in order to receive their gift … hence this is a ‘list building exercise’ for contributors

# After a pre-determined period of contributors adding gifts to the site, the doors open, and members can sign up and see what’s on offer

# Usually it’s a downloading frenzy, a trolley dash where you can download e-products for free … and many of them can be resold for profit

# Members are encouraged to promote the JV Giveaway, and incentives are usually given to encourage this

# Credits or commissions are usually awarded for referring people and possibly downgrade penalties if nobody is referred.

Many people sign up to Giveaway events just to help themselves to freebies, and there is nothing wrong with this.

If people didn’t do this, the marketers would not generate any new leads … so a Giveaway thrives on its ‘freebie seekers’.

However, there is no better place to be – if you’re serious about your online business and your list building – than at the front of the queue … and that means being a contributor and taking an active part in a Giveaway.

For first-timers, it’s best to take a free listing … most, if not all Giveaway events, offer a free listing option.

At http://new-jv-talent.com/valentine/go/247/jv there’s even a ‘Newbies Bootcamp’ which shows you exactly how to create a first listing at absolutely no cost to you whatsoever … and challeges you to sign up your first 10 referrals to convince yourself that this process really works.

Once you’re convinced about the process, having ventured nothing but your time, you can start to get really involved and get the additional benefits of taking an upgrade.

When you do this, you get text adverts and One Time Offers, as well as the ability to list more of your products.

Most Giveaways are so reasonably priced, you only have to sell one of your One Time Offers and you’ll have earned your fee back.

So, what are you waiting for?

Whatever niche you’re in, there’s bound to be a benefit in taking part in these Giveaway events.

Sign-up at http://new-jv-talent.com/valentine/go/247/jv right now and convince yourself that Giveaways really are the place to be if you want to build a list fast.

I hope to see your name at the top of the leader board at http://new-jv-talent.com/valentine/go/247/jv!

Start your own internet business as your New Year resolution for 2010
by Richard Moloney

I’ll bet you’ve thought about starting your own internet business at some stage.

Most people have … we’ve all seen how people make incredible amounts of money, seemingly from ‘nothing’, and it all takes place in cyberspace, no premises, no staff, no fleet of vehicles, just one person and their PC.

Or, it’s the dream of working for yourself and having the wonderful freedom to make money wherever you are via an online business that only requires a broadband connection and a laptop.

If you have ever thought about starting your own business on the Net, don’t leave it a moment longer.

Make your New Year resolution that you will finally make a start with your home internet business.

And if you have started already, make 2010 the year it really takes off.

There’s an easy way to do this, and it’s happening right now … but you have to get in quick!

You need to check out the New Year Giveaway at http://new-jv-talent.com/go/327

A Giveaway event is a great way to launch your online career.

Here’s how they work:

# A host sets up and advertises a Giveaway event – in this case the host’s name is Paul Teague

# Existing Internet Marketers sign up and add their ‘gifts’ to the Giveaway … these are usually e-books, software packages, audios or videos

# When the Giveaway opens, members (like you) sign up and get access for free

# The gifts are available free of charge to regular members, all they have to do is sign up to a Marketer’s mailing list to gain access

# As well as getting some high quality training materials, members also get to make connections with established marketers who can guide them to web success.

To see how it works, sign-up free at http://new-jv-talent.com/go/327

It really is as good as it sounds, and don’t think for one minute that because products are offered free, that they are of a low quality.

Marketers offer some of their best products in these Giveaways.

Why?

Because they know that if they make contacts with people at the beginning of their web careers, they will stay with them and learn from them long after the first free gift has been downloaded.

It’s a win-win situation, which is why they’re called ‘Joint Ventures’ or ‘JVs’ … everybody wins.

So, let this be one New Year resolution that you don’t break.

Sign up free at http://new-jv-talent.com/go/327 right now, and let this be the year you start your own home internet business.

I wish you every success.

I am in the process of creating videos to cover all the sections in my e-book called “How To Create A Video Using Microsoft PowerPoint”and also will be changing the site to include the videos as a OTO on it.  My reason for creating a number of videos rather than just one video is that it will make it easier for customers to find individual sections that they may want to watch over again.

At present the e-book can be obtained free from my site http://www.richardmoloney.com or if you fill in your name and email address in the optin box you will be taken to the download area.  You can also get it along with a load of other free gifts from the following giveaway sites Summer Special Giveaway and  Daily Available Giveaway both of which are live at present.  I have now gained over 100 persons to my mailing list from the Hidden Treasure Giveaway and also some from both of the above giveaways as well.

I wish every success to all of Alex Jeffreys new coaching students you are in for a lot of information and help from Alex in getting your own Internet Marketing business up and running.  If you are brand new to the internet you may struggle a bit at first but you can take all the time you need to get there.  Others in his first coaching course like myself have far exceeded my efforts to date.  Dean Holland has been able to quit his JOB and go full time in internet marketing simply by following what Alex taught him through the coaching course.

For those who are wondering why I am not doing much on Twitter at present this is because TweetDeck will not work on my computer at present, this is due to a fault with Adobe AIR.  I have emailed the Adobe tech help and have not had a reply from them,  when I phoned the help desk for the main Adobe site I was told that I had to ring the UK specific help number.  On doing this, and following a frustrating conversation with one of the tech help guys, I was told that because Adobe AIR was a free product they did not give tech help over the phone.  The only way I could get help was to email them and I would get a reply within 4 hours.  I tried to explain that I had already emailed the problem to them and that due to not getting a response was why I was ringing them.  The guy then told me to email the problem again and he would guarantee a response within 4 hours, 30 hours later still no response.

If anyone knows of a similar product to Adobe AIR which will run TweetDeck or other applications that currently run on Adobe AIR please let me know.

To finish up my webdesign course is coming to an end.  Another couple of weeks on placement and I will be able to devote my full time to making an income on the internet.  In the classroom training I gained a distinction for the formal part of the course and am now waiting for my City & Guilds Certificate to come through.

If you have any questions about any of my posts on this blog feel free to ask them in a comment below and I will do my best to answer them for you.  If I don’t know the answer I will ask those who are more experienced for the answer.  If you ask a question I will post the answer on my blog and also email you directly with it.
