Here's an example of one of the Landing Pages available to affiliates...

I Love SBI! (http://ilovesbi.sitesell.com/)

This page has an interesting story.

We ran a contest where people could create videos about how they love Site Build It! We had hundreds of entrants. The grand prize winner won $10,000.

To make a long story short we took the best 37 and made affiliate linked videos out of them using the Web Video Zone technology. Affiliates can choose from them and many other videos as powerful links for their site. These video links are converting about 30% better than any other link.

We want you to be our Partner-In-Sales!

Ken Evoy, president of SiteSell, wrote an eBook in 1999 that became one of the bibles of Online Marketing. That book entitled Make Your Site Sell (http://myss.sitesell.com) , sold over 100,000 copies. The concepts in that book are what led to Site Build It!.

Revised in 2002 that book is now free. It's still full of relevant information and anyone new to affiliate marketing should consider reading it. SiteSell affiliates use it as an excellent way to PREsell Site Build It! as a free download on their sites.

Over the years Ken wrote other eBooks including Make Your Content Presell (http://mycps.sitesell.com) , Make Your Knowledge Sell (http://myks.sitesell.com) , Make Your Words Sell (http://myws.sitesell.com) , Make Your Net Auction Sell (http://mynas.sitesell.com) , and Make Your Price Sell (http://myps.sitesell.com) . Some of these books are for sale but most are free. Make Your Content Presell (http://mycps.sitesell.com) even has a permanent cookie so that link is ALWAYS tracked to you.

He has also authored what are called the Masters Courses. These books provide detailed techniques for setting up an online business within various niches. These include the flagship course The Affiliate Masters Course (http://aff-masters.sitesell.com) as well as courses for Work At Home Moms (WAHMs) (http://wahm-masters.sitesell.com) , Webmasters (http://webmasterbusiness.sitesell.com) , Local Marketing (http://local-biz-masters.sitesell.com) , Service Sellers (http://services.sitesell.com) , and others. Each is a blueprint for success in that market.

What does all this mean to an affiliate?

Each of these books is a great PREseller for SBI!. You can develop content, PPC campaigns, and do email marketing around these books. You can even provide some of these books as free giveaways on your site.

Using our Book Build It! tool you can even embed your affiliate link into these books so that when someone clicks through to SiteSell from within the book your cookie is written... even months or years later.

SiteSell wants to be your Partner-In-Sales.

What are Life Time Customers?

When you bring SiteSell a new customer we feel that is an important event. New customers are the lifeblood of any company. They are especially valuable to us because Site Build It! customers tend to renew. This means the lifetime value of an SBI! customer is very high.

As our partner we want to reward you for your efforts. In addition to generous commissions, we feel that you should share in any future purchases by a customer you bring us. It's really only fair.

I wonder why more merchants don't offer lifetime customers?

So how do we track lifetime customers?

What happens if your customer deletes their cookies or buys a new computer?

We keep track of customers not only through cookies but through name, address, credit card, phone number, and ESP (OK just kidding). The point is we do everything in our power to make sure that customer is yours for life.

We want to be your partner-in-sales.

Whenever anyone who has your cookie joins the SiteSell 5 Pillar Program they become part of your team. You then earn a percentage of sales that are made through your team members' links. Your commission from team members does not reduce their commission in any way. They still receive their full 25% commission.

Some affiliates have hundreds of team members. Some actively recruit their team through the many Affiliate Educational links available... like The Affiliate Masters Course (http://aff-masters.sitesell.com) , Make Your Content Presell (http://mycps.sitesell.com) , or our Affiliate Marketing landing page (http://affiliatemarketing.sitesell.com) .

As the Team Leader you have access to your team members. You can coach them and encourage them in any way you wish. We even offer marketing strategies on how to do this effectively.

We want to be your Partner-In-Sales!

As I mentioned we offer over 60 different landing pages where an affiliate can send their visitors. These include the standard branding/information pages like our Home Page (http://sitesell.com) or our high-converting Visual Tour (http://buildit.sitesell.com). We also offer several "closing" landing pages like our Free Trial (http://freetrial.sitesell.com) page or our Proof (http://proof.sitesell.com) page or our Compare (http://compare.sitesell.com) page.

We also provide many other landing pages that are niche specific.

For example, suppose you want to target the retiree market. This group is an almost perfect market for SBI!. They have time on their hands, love the ease-of-use of SBI!, and are looking for ways to supplement their "fixed" incomes.

SiteSell provides a complete "blueprint" for how to target this group.

We start with a marketing page (http://5pmarketing.sitesell.com/articles/retirees.html) providing a strategic overview of the best ways to find and approach this group. On that page we show how to target offline as well as online and give specific techniques for finding and PREselling to this group.

We also supply specific links that affiliates can add to their site to motivate visitors to click through. This includes three "I Love SBI!" videos ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-gD3NIE8P8) specifically targeted to the retiree market. On this link you will see the You Tube version but the actual affiliate link provides a "player" from Web Video Zone that actually plays the movie on the affiliate site.

And of course we have the retiree landing page (http://retire.sitesell.com) where you send your prospect to learn why Site Build It! provides the perfect online business for retirees. It explains how they can reinvent their retirement by using the many skills they've learned over the years to build another income stream based on their passion and experience.

We offer strategies and landing pages for many other niches including webmasters, work-at-home-moms, local businesses, travel, students, e-goods, and real estate with more coming all the time.

We Want To Be Your Partner-In-Sales

[Rick - Bitcom]

If you want to run PPC to any of our landing pages feel free. We will not compete with you even for our own trademarked terms.

Pretty amazing huh!

Not only are you free to bid on Site Build It!, SiteSell, Make Your Site Sell, Make Your Links Work, or any other SiteSell brand we also run NO PPC ourselves. We leave that marketing opportunity to you... the experts.

We do not compete with our affiliates because...

We Want To Be Your Partner-In-Sales!

Forgot to mention to all you PPC affiliates...

We offer a FREE module called TrackIt! that allows you to measure your ROI for your PPC campaigns.

Use TrackIt! to build an affiliate tracking link for each campaign and landing page you want to measure. Come back and view your conversion reports so you can see exactly what percentage of clicks turned into SBI! sales. The report provides...

• unique clicks
• non-unique clicks
• sales
• conversion percentage

for each campaign/landing page you want to track.

Hey Rick, I bought MYSS umpteen years ago, which of course got lost when the computer it was downloaded to went bye-bye. Also, since that time the ISP email address changed.

I decided it might be possible to download it again, being a prior customer, so I wrote the support with my current email address and what I thought it might have been back at that time.

I didn't realize it was now available for free, but thought I'd mention that I did hear back from support within a couple of hours telling me that, even though it was in the evening.

So support really is there, just like it says on the site, which is a good thing to know.

[Rick - Bitcom]

Hey Marcia...

Glad to here it's working for you.

So did you get it?

Here's the link if you need it again...

Make Your Site Sell (http://myss.sitesell.com)

Don't forget about...

Make Your Content Presell (http://mycps.sitesell.com)

Make Your Words Sell (http://myws.sitesell.com)

and of course the Bible...

The Affiliate Masters Course (http://aff-masters.sitesell.com)

They're all free and great overviews of how to make money online.

All the best...

[Marcia]

Actually, I signed up for the affiliate program when I bought the book way back when, which I did through someone's link. I didn't do anything with it, but if I'm still listed as being on board I assume they'd still get their 2nd tier spiff if I started promoting now. That sign-up must long gone, of course.

[Rick - Bitcom]

Love to have you start promoting us Marcia.

Let me know how I can help.

[Rhia7]

Here's an example of one of the Landing Pages available to affiliates...

I Love SBI! (http://ilovesbi.sitesell.com/)

This page has an interesting story.



I didn't see the others yet but I like court jesters so "I Love My SBI!" (A Music Video) by Jon from videojester.com caught me eye and I thought the video was very clever and creative! Well done!

[Rick - Bitcom]

Thanks Rhia... that's my favorite.

There's actually quite a few others that are good too. Very clever in a YouTube kind of way.

The real point is they are filled with the kind of emotion that really connects with visitors... and they convert.

[tn-morgen]

Hey Rick,
Only 25%? I thought as a 5P member I got a little more for someone signing up. Is this for non-5P members?

Morgen Marshall - been SBI'r for almost 3 yrs with a site of my own, but never closed a sale thru 5P

[Rick - Bitcom]

Hi Morgen...

Send me a personal email. I'll be happy to look at your presentation and see what I can do to help you out.

There's money to be made. Our top affiliate made 5 figures last month.

[tn-morgen]

Rick,
I lurk in the forums at SBI, I'm one of the SBI-U instructors for Don Coggan, but my local college put me off till fall.

I think you should be able to find me there, but maybe I can get to you thru the 5P interface?
M

[Rick - Bitcom]

Hey Morgen...

Tell us about your SiteSell Education initiative. I'm sure lots of folks here would love to hear about how affiliates can sell classes along with their SBI! site sales. It's a great opportunitiy to make some nice money.

[Rick - Bitcom]

As we mentioned before many of our customers have created I Love SBI! videos that are packed with emotion and convert like gangbusters.

Our Video Build It! tool allows you to select from a wide choice of videos to put on your site. The Web Video Zone technology creates a "player" with affiliate tracking code embedded so that your visitors can actually play the video on your site.

Pretty cool eh?

Here's what one of the players looks like on a site...

http://video.sitesell.com/underground/video-screen.jpg (http://ilovesbi.sitesell.com)

This one is called "I Love My SBI!" (A Music Video)
by Jon from videojester.com. Click on it to go to the I Love SBI! landing page and see the video.

No matter how powerful and successful online marketing has become most people would still rather buy from a real person. The impact of your presence and the emotional content of your message is just plain greater offline.

SiteSell recognizes this and that's why we've created a complete Offline Sales Kit for marketing to people offline.

This kit includes...

• A 17 page PREselling Guide

• A 49 page Offline Sales Guide

• A 97 slide Powerpoint with notes to help you make a totally professional presentation

• Marketing materials including ads, flyers, and a customizable leave-behind Booklet

• over 20 pieces in all for you to use as needed!

Great offline Site Build It! prospects include...

• Chambers of Commerce

• Retiree groups

• Local associations (Kiwanis, Rotary, KofC, PTA, etc.

• Trade shows

You can even create your own "event" by doing a "Tupperware-style" evening at your own home. Some ambitious, highly successful affiliates have rented a hall and promoted with flyers, newspaper ads, word-of-mouth, etc.

Take a look at our Offline Marketing Page (http://5pmarketing.sitesell.com/articles/offline.html) to see ALL the possibilities.

Affiliate support is very important at SiteSell. That's why we created the 5 Pillar Club.

The 5P Club is our affiliate micro-site. Actually the term micro-site does not do it justice. We have literally hundreds of pages of instruction, promotional links, and marketing advice in The Club. It's where you'll find all the tools an affiliate needs to become successful promoting Site Build It!.

We offer basic instruction for the affiliate newbie. Solid core strategies for the intermediate affiliate. And many advanced strategies for the experienced affiliate.

The 5 Pillar Club is divided into these sections...

• The Promotion Center
All links including text based, banners, videos, and landing pages

• The Marketing Guide
Here you'll find strategies on how to use the links in the Promotion Center including how to market to webmasters, retirees, stay-at-home moms, students, local businesses, and many others. You'll find articles on how to market offline, PPC, how to use the various free eBooks as PREsellers, and the specifics of using the over 60 Landing Pages.

• The Accounting Section
Commissions, visitor and link stats, account settings

Also sprinkled throughout the club you'll find a Quick Start Guide, an Orientation Guide, details on how to grow your team, and much more.

Of course you'll find the Affiliate Masters Course (http://aff-masters.sitesell.com) . It's a great way to learn about affiliate marketing and also a great way to promote Site Build It!.

Take a look at the Marketing Guide (http://5pmarketing.sitesell.com/index.html) to get an idea of the depth of the 5 Pillar Club.

This is a club we'd love to have you join.

We want to be your partner-in-sales!

I wouldn't...

Would you believe Allan Gardyne (http://www.associateprograms.com/articles/160/1/Best-affiliate-programs)?

[Rick - Bitcom]

We've got our Buy-1 Get-1-Free Holiday Special starting on Dec. 12. Our top affiliates usually double their commissions during this 3-week sale. That means someone will probably get a $20K check in January.

We've got special banners and sample promo content you can use.

It's a great time to join what Allan Gardyne calls "... the best Affiliate Program on the net."

[Rick - Bitcom]

It's alive and kicking. And a great chance for affiliates to get a super Holiday Bonus in January.

Here's a page with some strategies on how to take advantage of it. (http://5pmarketing.sitesell.com/articles/holiday-special.html)

Happy Holidays to all!
