As business people where here to network and ultimately make money! I know many of you have successful sold your products and services to other members while some have found ways to creatively promote other things as well.
Whether you want to share your strategy, learn from others, are start making money on BBWO. Let's begin to talk about practical strategies and tips that work best.
Here are some successful practices I have seen thus far:
1. Adding Photos of Your Products to the Photo Gallery and on your Page
2. Posting product reviews and promotional articles on your blog
3. Sharing Information About Your Service in the Forum or On Groups
Making Affiliate Sales
1. Add Your Affiliate links and banners to your personal page and blog
...... I've seen members add amazon books and widgets, website affiliate banners, their etsy store widget, and other affliate programs. Think of your page as if it was your own BBWO Website. Make the most of it, but don't get carried away with the ads. Ad overload isn't effective, it's annoying. Strategically place ads either on your page or in your blog posts. Please note: Do not take this suggestion and start posting affiliate ads on people's pages, because if I get complaints you will be banned.
2. If you have a blog remember to add your RSS Feed to your page on the sidebar.
3. Do you have an affiliate program? Share it here to increase your sales.
4. Do you by Black on BBWO? Share your purchases with the entire network, this inspires others, supports members financially, and keeps black dollars flowing back into our community!
5. Every one loves Top 10 Lists ... create a listing of top ten resources, websites, tips, or even books (great way to add your amazon books and get clicks) that people would be interested in your area of interest. I've already seen and featured one great listing of books, create your own list today.
6. Similar to creating a list, take the time to write a great review or howto guide in your area of interest. Every one is looking for good information, that's one of the reasons that brought so many of you hear! So capitalize on that by writing a great article, integrating your own products or services if you can, and making sure to feature your own site at the signature of your article. Remember make it informative and not simply a promotional press release for your product.
