5 Lesser-Known Online Business Ideas
===============================================================
Copyright 2004 Dirk Wagner
1. Ask people to find a hidden link in your ad copy. If
they find the hidden link tell them they will get a prize
or freebie by clicking on it. This will increase the chance
that they will buy your product or service because they
will read your whole ad copy.
2. Start a members only web site. Tell visitors what's in
your members only site and what it costs to get access.
Offer them a free membership, if, in exchange they link to
your web site, post your banner on their home page or agree
to advertise your web site in their e-zine for a set period
of time. Usually they will agree to the free advertising to
save money. This is a powerful way to get free advertising.
3. Want a popular discussion board? This technique is based
on the number of postings made by any one person. You could
give away a free product or service to any person that
posts ten or more messages on your discussion in a month.
It could be a free e-book, report, e-mail consulting etc.
Just keep track of everyone's postings each month. This
could also work for e-mail discussion lists.
4. Give your visitors an instant article directory. Tell
your visitors they can instantly add a free article
directory to their web site by linking to yours. Just place
your ad or banner ad on top of the article directory for
your main product or service. All those links can add up to
a large amount of traffic for your web site.
5. There a millions of web sites on the internet. Instead
of marketing your web site as a web site. Market it as a
free web book. Design your web site with a title page,
table of contents, chapters, etc. Just place your ad or
banner for your product or service on the top of each web
page.

When Do You Ask For A Refund?
===============================================================
By Kim D Regan
Have you ever asked to have your money refunded after
buying something online? Do you do this often? What are
the reasons you've asked for refunds? Savvy marketers
will try to find out why without making you feel you
should not have asked. This would be valuable information
to them. Anyone selling on the internet should be willing
to have a fair and prompt refund policy. To back up their
products and claims without hesitation. It is especially
important to do with online sales since the transaction
is done without being able to "read" the salesperson and
operation face to face.
Fairness and ethical behavior goes both ways. Due to the
fact that online info products and downloadable software
are easy to copy and "keep" while also obtaining a refund,
the buyer kind of has a special "burden of honor" too. I
have asked for refunds when a product was totally
misrepresented and poorly done. In one instance the video
and audio courses were sold as being "convenient and
viewable anytime and anyplace". Turns out it was a
convenience for the marketer since you had to view them
from his site, and you guessed it, the site was very,
very S-L-O-W. If I buy something costly and you sell me
like that, I want to download and OWN it.
Another time I went through an ebook that had not been
cheap to buy and it just didn't contain too much I didn't
already know. I was just about to ask for a refund (and
no,I don't do that often, only a few times EVER) when I
decided to look again at the ads that made me bite on the
offer. The seller had not misrepresented anything. And
his offer and presentation were not "junky". I simply had
learned more about the subject than I thought and hadn't
realized it. Good for me! The additional value for me
then became studying what was very good ad copy. I didn't
ask for that refund.
A common situation you may find yourself in is not being
ready for the level of material you are reading. A little
more study at the basic level and perhaps simply putting
the material away until you are ready may be the answer.
Some advanced topics will not make sense without base
knowledge. Due to the vast scope of some subjects it might
be hard to cover it in one product or course series.
Don't hesitate to ask for a refund if you truly feel the
product was misrepresented. Educate that marketer about
what you feel was wrong. If they don't improve, they
deserve to give all their money back. Just don't be one
of those awful people who buys an expensive product
KNOWING they are going to ask for a refund. That's the
same as stealing and is unethical. If we want the
convenience and gratification of being able to immediately
download what we have purchased to continue, we can't
bleed the online merchants dry.
