Olympic Giveaway

July 31, 2008

I am running a giveaway event to coincide with the Olympic games in Beijing this year. The date for the event are:

Start Date: Friday 8th August 2008 (opening ceremony)
End Date: Sunday 24th August 2008 (closing ceremony)

If you would like to sign up as a contributor to the event, here is the link to do so:

If your not sure what a giveaway event is, or why you would want to be involved in one here is a quick(ish) overview:

What happens at a giveaway event is that a whole load of marketers get together and offer you free gifts. Now, sad as
it may seem they are not just doing this out of the goodness of there hearts! If you request a free gift from one of the
marketers you will have to supply your name and email address to them and it will be added to their email list.

Each marketer is required to promote the event to their own lists. So lets say for example 100 marketers join an event and
each one has on average a list of 1000 (both values pretty conservative). That would mean 100,000 people would get to
hear about the event. Of that 100,000 say only 10% actually visit the giveaway. That’s 10,000 people looking at the free
gifts offered by the marketers and potentially being added to their lists! And as every one knows “The money is in the list”

Hopefully this shows you why you should want to be involved in Olympic Giveaway. It will help you to grow your list and in
turn your income.

What If I Don’t Have A List?

Every marketer involved in a giveaway event is required to promote it (that’s only fair after all!). So if you don’t have
a list already this could be a bit of problem but there are other ways to promote a giveaway event. Here are a few:

Safelists
Traffic Exchanges
Text Ad Exchanges
VirulURL, List Effects etc
A post on your blog
Forum post signatures
MySpace, Facebook, Twitter etc

I’m sure you could think of some more. The thing is , you only have to worry about this once, because after your
first giveaway event you’ll have a list you can promote to. So for any future giveaway events it’s not a problem. This can be
a great way to kick start you list building.

What Do I Need, To Join Olympic Giveaway?

You need to have some sort of gift to give away that people will want. You need a squeeze page to collect name and email
addresses and you will need an account with an autoresponder service. That’s it really.

I will be putting together some videos to show you the whole process of setting up your gift, squeeze page, autoresponder
and ways to promote Olympic Giveaway over the coming weeks leading up to the launch on Friday 8th August.

If you’ve got a list, this will be a great way to increase it’s size and if you haven’t got a list you really should! So this is a great way to start.
