What To Do With Products That Don't Sell

1. Sell the reprint/reproduction rights to the product. You could make money selling other people the rights to reproduce and sell the product. People are always looking for new products to sell.

2. Giveaway the product for free from your web site. Just because it won't sell doesn't mean people won't visit your web site to get it for free. They may see another product you sell and buy that one.

3. Try auctioning off the product at an online auction. You may make part of your investment back. If you're lucky, you may even make a profit because people sometimes get into bidding wars and will bid a higher price than the product is worth.

4. Use the product as a free bonus for another product you sell. This will increase the perceived value of the product you're selling. People will feel they're receiving more for less.

5. Contact businesses with the same target market and see if they would be interested in using your product as a free bonus for their product. You could place your ad on the product and get free advertising.

6. Sell your product to businesses at wholesale cost as a promotional product. Businesses are always looking for products they can giveaway to their customers with their advertising on the product. You could make part of your investment back.

7. Barter your product to other businesses for things you need for your own business. You could trade for their products or services. This will save you money and help make up for your profit loss.

8. You could create an online contest so people could win your product. This will attract traffic to your web site. You also could get free advertising by listing it on online contest directories.

9. If you decide to giveaway the product for free, allow other people to giveaway the product for free. Place your web site ad on the product. This will spread your advertising and attract even more people to your site.

10. Ask businesses with the same target audience if they would be interested in combining your product with their product. You could then sell them together as a package deal and split the profits. You may have better results selling your product this way.

How To Make Money Writing Articles

If you write and submit articles on the Internet, you need to
make sure you are getting the most money out of each article.
Here are the 7 different ways to make money with articles:

1. Promote Your Website

Add your author bio at the end of each article with a short ad
for your products or services and a link to your website. People
who like your article and click on your link will be more ready
to buy from you than a cold prospect.

2. Promote Affiliate Products

You can promote affiliate products in your author bio, and make
commissions on all the sales you refer. Just register a domain
name (so your link at the end of the article looks
professional), and redirect it to your affiliate link.

3. Content Sites With Adsense

Use your articles to build content websites packed with useful
information. Content websites are likely to get lots of free
traffic from search engines. Place the Google Adsense
advertisements on your pages, and get paid for each click.

4. Blogs

Start publishing a blog. Search engines love blogs because they
are regularly updated with fresh content. Blogs tend to get a
lot of traffic from search engines. Break-up your articles into
smaller chunks and turn them into blog entries.

5. Mailing List

Collect your website visitors names and e-mail addresses – ask
them to sign up for your newsletter. Regularly e-mail your
articles to your newsletter subscribers, along with promotions
for your website.

6. Information Products

When you accumulate enough articles, compile them into an
e-book. Turn your articles into book chapters. Change a few
things here and there, and you will have a new information
product to sell.

7. Viral E-Books

Instead of selling the e-book that you made from your articles,
you can also use a viral marketing approach. Add promotional
copy to your e-book along with links to your website and
affiliate links, and give it away. It will spread around the
Internet like a virus, advertising your products and services
and putting more money in your pocket.
