Creating a Viral Marketing Effect with a Free Report
Using free Reports to create a viral marketing effect is not really new, but it can be very effective if it´s done right.
Here are some important tips to create a successful marketing campaign:
1. The Title – The Title of your ebook must grab the attention of your targeted audience. A good strategy is to ask a question or a “Call to Action” for example.
2. Content – This is the most important point when it comes to create a viral effect. Create useful and unique content!
3. Quiz – You can include a Quiz in your Ebook and post the right answer on your website! Don´t forget to include a link to the answer in your free e-book, this will lead the reader to your website!
4. Humor – Humor is another effective way to create a viral effect.
5. Brandable – Create a brandable report and give your readers an incentive to spread your ebook. You can set up your own affiliate program if you are selling your own products or you can include other affiliate links and make them rebrandable. (That means your readers can insert their own affiliate links into the ebook to earn a commission by giving away your free report).
It´s not easy to create a viral marketing effect with a free report or free ebooks!
Let your readers know that they are allowed to give the ebook away for free to their friend, their list or on their website.
To increase this effect you can give away a readymade Landing page to your readers, to make it as easy as possible for them to giveaway your report to build their list!
It´s very important to promote your free report, give it away for free on your website, post it to the most popular free ebook directories, blog about it, give it away to your list, post a download link at related massage boards and so on…
