No this isn't some type of eBook bullshit that I'm going to be yapping about here today its about the emails I get from the eBook fanatics like the Day Job Killer.

Wait What Your On There Subscriptions?.

haha yup and willingly too and the reason for that is to see just what little tricks they are using to intice people to buy there products, more or less I just read over the sales copy and keep an eye to see what type of so called claims of profits they are making.

From there you can sometimes pick up some ideas for your own legit sales letters, ect... anyway today I just got this email and was just checking out the website called Project Payday.

Now strangely enought the actual HTML link in the email was affiliateprojectx (dot) com/payday which then sends you to a redirected page.

Ok now onto the goods and why I am saying what this page did was a half decen't idea that could be tweaked to support some real offers instead of the lets make a million dollars a day eBooks.

The sales letter was not written with the intent to sell you anything and it actually makes no claims of you making millions, it actually makes much more realistic claims (Which is fucking surprizing for these guys).

Now they say everything is 100% free then you come to the bottom of the page where they say fill out your email address to advance to the next page, at this point I figured hey this is already a decent idea because the sole purpose of this so far has been to capture your email address then they can sell you stuff later.

On the next page (If you don't want to go that far), it actually takes the time to say ok in order to download this money making system and to get started today all you have to do is sign up for one of these free offers.

Oh wait a minute, they've got the following offers set up.

1) eAuction Tutor - I was promoting this at one time too
2) Quickbooks Business Kits - WTF I was also promoting that
3) Get A Brighter Smile
4) Work At Home Manifesto

Now if memory serves me correct the eAcution Tutor and Quickbooks are on MaxBounty with a sales payout of around $30 bucks I think but I'm not sure of the other too.

So now when you sign up for one of these things you can download your free money making system (No I didn't sign up and get the money making system).

But its a decent idea because it plays off the same old hopes that the user wants to earn money online, it avoids making huge claims of instant success, it uses numbers that some could achieve in one month (Between 500 and 2500), it captures the email address for later use, and it generates an affiliate commission all before giving away the system and most likely profiting from any links included inside of it.

What do you all think was this worth mentioning? Or do you think it was a waste of your time?

(If you think it was a waste of your time then boo hoo go cry somewhere else).

Ohh shit I missed this in the footer of that page, read what it says.

Rather Just Pay! You can also get started with a one-time membership fee of just $34.95
 
What the fuck is the point of this thread exactly?

To basically show people how easy it can be to capture and email address, and turn a commission, you don't need some fancy shit just a basic concept.

Sometimes Overthinking can be a bad thing.
 
And you needed to make a novel of a post to explain that?

I have my doubts about you... I think you're an ebook traitor!

The post was informative enough to teach some less advanced players that playing off beliefs to capture an email address can be profitable, in turn you can give something away for free while still earning cash from it.

As for an eBook traitor, well now your just thinking crazy I stay away from make money online eBooks unless I feel 100% that book has overwhelming value to the end user.

So you think that DJK was useful?

What other complete jokes of an ebook do you think are real gems in the useful dept? I'd love to see your list.

hahaha this page popped up when I went to the link in the OP:

www - wahwatchdog - org


There's your list - they even have grades next to them ROFL!!!
 
hmmm interesting idea
how does it know who signed up for the offer in order to send the book to them?

Far from it, the real DJK was useless information, super basic shit that everyone and there dog can figure out with a 10 minute search, I read it for free, just like Affiliate Site X, or The Niche Jerk, or the Rich Jerk, I read all there shit for free and haven't found one that held true value to me, everything I know comes from online free resources and offline marketing books.

You obviously mis-understood what I was trying to get at with this post and I sure as fuck wasent trying to say DJK was a gem.

I only meant that not every single eBook in this world is evil or useless and even though I'm with you on fighting against rip off eBooks and shitty recycled information that shouldn't be sold for those prices, I'm not against ones that do hold decent information (Although as stated I don't ever think I've found a make money online eBook in which I could give reference to for someone to buy it).

I say stick with offline marketing books if you want to learn marketing.

I imagine that it captures the email address on the first page and then you could echo the email address using PHP on the second page and put the email address in the affiliate link sub-id.

Then log into the affiliate account and get the email addresses and send out the "free report".

Hmmmmm any easy way to do that?
And yes, this is a valuable thread - a different twist on the email/zip submit thread if you think of it....

Spend 2 hours learning the PHP that is required. It is pretty basic (and I am not a programmer!).
