-don't need previous online or marketing experience

-don't need your own huge mailing list
-won't pay a penny to submit articles to get your word out
-don't need to leave your home office

Think about it. The "Big Three Marketing Machine" of your articles, eNewsletter, and your print or eBook are the most important "assistants" you can every possess. They relentlessly go out and deliver your message to your eager-to-buy Online audience. The one audience where there is no competition for your information because you only seek out a Free, targeted audience. After a few months, you can make this marketing even easier with automating messages and using a low-cost assistant to delegate this to.

Three Steps to Build on to Get The Highest Profits Ever

1. Write a short informational article from 150-800 words.

2. Subscribe to a few opt-in ezines you can later submit articles to. Try these: aahealth-subscribe@egroups.com, aageneral-subscribe@egroups.com, aahome-subscribe@egroups.com, or article_announce-subscribe@yahoogroups.com

3. Submit one to two articles each week, and watch for emails saying that this Web master or owner wants to publish your article on her site. After you submit over 20 or so, you will become a household name, and many people will come to your site to browse first, then later buy.

Even if you don't think of yourself as a writer, these short articles are easy write once you repeat your effort several times.

Instead of knocking yourself out trying to do it all alone, imagine what it would be like to have all the how-to's, opt-in ezine and top web site resources in many categories such as business, personal growth, even spirituality in ready to send links. You also don't have to go looking for new email addresses because the opt-in ezines provide your targeted readers.

When you submit your short article or tip related to your topic to 10 or more ezines with just one click, you will be published! (Just think how long and arduous the journey is to submit to print magazines) and out of 1000 subscribers to each ezine, ten to twenty readers will contact you saying they want your information for their web site. If you wanted to reach the same 15,000 in one day through traditional marketing, it would take $615 in stamps, 15,000 envelopes, and some $120 for printing the article, plus weeks to capture their email addresses.

Wouldn't it be great to never again have to work so hard with little results? Just think of the confidence and power you will gain when you expand yourself in this easy format. Think of many thousands reading your book next month rather that the few sales you make at the back of the room with a talk, or the press release you send that lands in the round file.

Did I mention it's just you and your computer?

-Less trouble
-No telling in person
-No selling in person
-More Convenience
-Spend less time
-Spend much less money
-Have vast, endless opportunities
-Little or no competition
-Eliminate the middlemen
-You reach greater #'s of your targeted market

You get to have a great adventure--and keep all the profit for yourself AND leverage your time for multiple, fast sales.

Stop doing what doesn't work--Delegate some of your work to the Internet! And, if you don't want to take time for this method, teach it to a low-cost assistant who can do it all in less than six hours a week.
