Tips on getting referrals

Traditionally, people get referrals through face to face introduction.

Yes... You can still persist on using this traditional way, but it works only for close friends.

OK. Since we are now On-the-Line, thus we need some on-line marketing skills. 

I'm going to reveal some of the most effective ways of marketing online!! cheers~~~~~


HOW       ?
A very good W-H question.


Recalling that THIS webpage is a blog. So, what can you think about a blog?
Is a blog an online diary? or........?

Yea. Some people might think that BLOG is an online diary. Yes, indeed it is. But, at the same time as treating our blog as diary, why don't we use it to promote ourselves?

Therefore, 

Step # 1  Have a good blog and good content about what you are going to promote.
By doing so, people who pass by your blog will definitely know what you are up to. A very good start.  =)
Make your site as attractive as possible.
You can write the details of your product, a PTC website, or anything and explain how it works and what is the return of "investment". The recent up-to-date information is needed to convince the readers. And, don't forget to give PROOFS of your return.


Step # 2 Promote your blog. 
Promote your blog online! You would definitely have to promote your blog as to get readers and traffic. You can try to promote your blog on any social websites
e.g. Facebook, Friendster, Myspace, Twitter, and so on....
You can also try to get traffic from traffic exchange site (manual traffic exchange) or advertise on paid to click sites. 
Promoting is vital to get readers. Ask the readers who are interested in your site to subscribe to or follow your blog.
You can also try to forward an email to your contact list promoting your blog.


Step # 3 Don't forget to visit others site!

You can visit other people's blogs which are also promoting their product. Leave your link there

and give them comment. This might help yourself to get a decent number of referrals as well as that person.



I hope these helps~~~~

p.s. : The number of referrals won't just pop out like magic. Put in more efforts in promoting and you shall see the number blossoms after a period of time.
