Welcome From Your Publisher...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Hi and welcome to the Classified edition of MIBW.
Don't forget to look over the classified ads, you never know
what you might find.
I am reprinting the Voice Your Opinion From Tuesday's edition.
I got a lot of great responses so for those of you who missed
it, you can read it below and send in your opinion.
The question came about from an article I published in
Tuesday's edition from Willie Crawford about offering free
bonuses with your product, is it a good or bad thing. There are
many aspects and factors to this question so I got a lot of
good pro and con responses. Don't forget to send yours in.
Also there is only a couple weeks left in March and the Buy One
Get One Free Sale will be over soon. I don't plan to have
another sale for quite some time so take advantage while the
sale is on. http://ezineadhelper.com/adrates.htm
In today's issue, I have reprinted another one of my oldie but
goodie articles " Stop Renting Your Profits" which asks the simple
question: Can you survive without affiliate programs??
Something to think about huh?
Also I have an article from Merle of
http://mcpromotions.com
who always writes great articles. She shows you the various low
cost ways to create .pdf files without going broke.
Whether you are into ebooks or not,there are tons of reasons to
create .pdf files, so this applies to all business owners.
Remember the next time you create an ebook in .exe. format,
only Windows users can view them, not Mac users so .pdf is
always a good option to have for your ebooks.
That's about it for today. Stay tuned for tomorrow's Nifty
Thrifty Edition along with
Sunday's Ask The Admistress edition.
Have a great weekend
Your Publisher,

Bonuses Worth it or Not?
We all like to sweeten the pot when selling a product or
service online. We have seen it done for years now. That is
probably the reason we have purchased many different services,
ebooks, software, etc.
But are we just adding bonuses that aren't worth the time it
takes to mention it? Does adding useless bonuses increase or
decrease the value of your product, the answer might surprise
you.
I think this is a case of "Do What We See Others
Do". I have seen some sites offer so many bonuses I wonder is
the product even worth it? Do you even remember what the
product was in the first place?
Maybe you should ask yourself, if you were to remove the
bonuses from your product or even your ezine, would you sell
as much or does it depend on what the bonus is in the first
place..
That is today's Voice Your Opinion...
Can YOU Take the "No Bonus Challenge?" Send me your opinions

"Why Pay Big Bucks for PDF Software: Consider Your Options"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
By Merle
http://MCPromotionsPress.com
If you've ever downloaded a document or purchased an
ebook online, odds are it was created in something
called "Portable Document Format" (PDF). PDF was
initially created by Adobe and is the standard for
online documents, as they can be viewed on a variety
of platforms and computers.
To read PDF documents, a computer must have "Adobe
Acrobat Reader" installed, which comes at no charge.
If you don't already have it on your system,
you can download it here:
http://adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
Now if you want to create a PDF document, you could
go out and spend a few hundred dollars on Adobe
Acrobat Software. But there are other, lower cost
(even free) options. If you plan on
creating reports or ebooks, or any other document
to add to your website, you'll want to take a
look at what's available in the PDF creation
department.
1) http://PDFMoto.com : A
Web publishing system
that converts documents you create in any Windows
application into PDF. They offer several different
versions, so pricing varies, but they do offer a
free version that is limited to 50 documents.
2) http://PDF995.com : Free software that allows
you to create PDF documents as easily as hitting
the "print" key from within any application. The
free version has an advertising splash page that
comes up every time you run the program but you
can purchase "keys" for $9.95 each to remove them
if they bother you.
3)
http://Sanface.com/txt2pdf.html : Txt2PDF
Shareware that is actually a Perl 5 program that
converts your old text docs to PDF format. Runs
on any platform that supports Perl. The personal
edition is only $39.00
4)
http://www.oakworth.demon.co.uk/gymnast.htm
Gymnast is a text to PDF creator for Windows.
This downloadable software is actually freeware.
Very powerful and easy to use and it's loaded
with features. Just open the software, select
the document and convert it.
5) http://tinyurl.com/la4j
: CutePDF Printer is
totally free. This software has no annoying ads
or banners. Choose print from within any application
to create a PDF instantly.
6) http://Win2PDF.com : This software creates PDF
files from any Windows NT, Win 2000 or XP application.
Price ranges from $35.00 to $69.00, depending on which
version you wish to purchase. Installs as a print
driver so all you do is click print from any software
app you're using and you're done.
As you can see, you have plenty to choose from when
it comes to software packages, but what if you just
have an occasional need to create PDF's? There are
some websites that will allow you to create documents
right online at their sites.
Here are a few to get you started:
1) Adobe: http://www.Adobe.com
Look in the left hand column for the button that
says "create PDF online." You can create up
to five documents free; after that you'll need to
pay $9.99 a month or $99.00 per year for unlimited
usage.
2) Create Your Own PDF:
http://www.sanface.com/createpdf.html
Just paste your text into the box and hit the
button. Presto, you're done.
3) GoBlc: http://www.gohtm.com/
Free online conversion service that allows you
to upload any document. They do the PDF conversion
and email you back with the file.
One of the biggest problems with PDF documents,
especially when it comes to ebooks, is that they're
not easily modified for use by affiliates /associates.
Many .exe ebooks allow you to download them and
easily customize them with your own affiliate links.
When it comes to viral marketing, rebranding ability
is of the utmost importance. This gives others the
incentive to freely give away your ebook if they
can insert their own affiliate links. This was
a problem with PDF, but not anymore.
1) Viral PDF: http://viralpdf.com
With this software, you can easily rebrand your
PDF ebooks. It's actually a set of two Windows
files. Once you create your material you can
give it to your affiliates along with a small
software application that allows them to rebrand
the links in the ebook with their own. Only $67.00
2) Custom PDF Maker :
http://CustomPDFMaker.com
A script that allows your visitors to enter their
links into a webpage, press a button and the PDF
is created with their links in it. Only $19.95
3) PDF Link Changer:
http://PDFLinkChanger.com
Software that searches through a PDF file, displays
all url's and email links and allows you to easily
change them. If you create marketing materials
for your affiliates, this one's for you. Purchase
without resale rights for only $19.00
No matter how you choose to create your own PDF's --
with software, on the fly online, or rebrandable --
by taking the time to check out these resources,
you'll save yourself a lot of time and money.
Remember, when it comes to PDF creation, Adobe's
not the only game in town.

Stop Renting Your Profits: Can You Survive Without Affiliate
Programs?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
By Donesia Muhammad
This article may be hard for some marketers to understand.
This article may actually change your mind on how to properly
succeed online.
This article will show you what I have eventually learned and
what you will learn as well.
Renting Your Profits, What Does That Mean?
For all of you who are making money from affiliate programs
and other money making programs, congratulations. Affiliate
programs and other money making programs can help you
supplement your income online. I should know. Not only am I a
member of various affiliate programs, but I also run my own
affiliate program as well. So don't think this is an
anti-affiliate program article.
Notice, I Said Supplement Your Income.
Now what are you going to do the day you get that email that
says
"Thank you for your participation in our affiliate program,
but we have decided to discontinue this product, and effective
immediately you can no longer spend all your time promoting my
product. Have a nice day"
So what are you going to do. You have spent all your time
promoting this product. Your entire ezine is focused on this
product.
Now what are you going to talk about? Now where are your
profits going to come from?
Remember a long time ago, every successful marketer told you
one thing
If you want to succeed online, you need to have your own
product or service that you own outright 100% or you will
never achieve marketing success.
THIS IS THE FIRST, MOST IMPORTANT STEP TOWARDS ONLINE
MARKETING SUCCESS.
Let me say this again..
THIS IS THE FIRST, MOST IMPORTANT STEP TOWARDS ONLINE
MARKETING SUCCESS.
I am not referring to products that you have the rights to
resell and reprint. This a great money maker as I have ebooks
that I resell myself, but you know what. That's not my main
source of income.
Why?
I didn't write this ebook. If the author sets a certain
criteria for their material, you have no choice but to comply
since it is not your material in the first place.
The benefits of owning your own product or service online are
endless. You make the rules. you collect all the profits, end
of story..
When I first started out, I heard that same line, and said to
myself " I can't invent software or develop some sort of
service, I'll just rely on these affiliate programs."
Didn't even care what the product was, just as long as it had
a high commission, you can be sure I signed up for it.
REALITY CHECK
Everyone else was promoting the same thing. By the time I got
around to promoting it, no one cared, and I was lucky to see
$10!
I had to use their material to promote, had to stick to their
guidelines. Even if I was successful, it dawned on me that I
am helping to promote someone else's products and services.
So I thought about what I can do to carve a niche in this
world of marketing. If I can't think of a product to come up
with, what about a service? That's why I came up with Ezine Ad
Helper.com
You see my original website My IBiz Helper is great but I
didn't have anything unique to offer my visitors, so I came up
with Ezine Ad Helper.
It is not a reseller of another ad coop, or anything else like
that.
Ezine Ad Helper is owned by KDM Publishing, which is owned by
me.
So while my service oriented business is far from being a new
concept, it is mine, and that is what you focus on.
HOW CAN I COME UP WITH AN IDEA FOR MY OWN PRODUCT OR SERVICE?
Okay once I realized that I was not going to put Bill Gates
out of business, I thought realistically about what I wanted
to do.
Take stock of your skills, abilities, all of your previous
jobs, and the skills that you have learned online before. If
you have had any previous sales experience, then half the
battle is won.
There are various products and services that you can do to
appeal to the online community. It is not as hard as you
think.
Now in terms of making millions, well that's another story.
Like any real business, you will be lucky to see your first
profit anytime soon, but remember nothing comes handed to you.
Web Design, Desktop Publishing, Script Installation, Web
Hosting, Writing Sales Copy, Graphic Design, Resume Creation,
Virtual Assistants, get the idea..
SO ARE YOU SAYING THAT AFFILIATE PROGRAMS DON'T WORK?
Please don't get me wrong. If I thought affiliate programs
didn't work I wouldn't have one for my own site. Here is what
I figured out:
If you have your own product or service, then select only a
few key affiliate programs that will compliment your main
product or service.
Stop signing up for everything just because it offers a high
commission. Look for solid products to enhance what you are
already offering. After all, I don't expect to see an ad for
tobacco at a children's website so think before you sign up..
If you cannot take this first simple step of owning your own
product or service outright, then you are already placing
strikes against you in your path to Internet Marketing
Success..
So now you can ask yourself after reading this...
Are You Going To Keep Renting Your Profits Or Are You Ready To
Own And Own Big..
