How To Sell: The Back-End Method and The "FireSale" Method

The Back-End Method

This method is very popular in the ebook information industry. What it does is gives you the power to pull in more profits after you have made the initial sale to your customers by providing you with specific links enabling the reader of the product to buy other related products. Thus creating a built in back-end sales force that runs on autopilot.  

Imagine, if you will, having a product that you can not only resell over and over again, but one that has additional purchase links to other associated products within it bringing in more profits to you without you having to do nothing more than distribute the original file.  

It's a very easy way to earn extra money after the first sale when you have a good product with a strong back-end. Changing these back-end links to point to your own special affiliate links is also referred to as "rebranding". However, full rebranding gives you special permission and tools to change other important details that help drive traffic to your site by providing you with other rebrandible links and text you can change letting your customers know who has provided this rich resource of information to them, and most importantly, where they can get more! 

The "FireSale" Method

I'm sure you have seen this or at least heard of it before. This is when a company or organization has a massive sale at an extremely discounted price to move their merchandise.

Firesales have gained in popularity because of the sheer amount of profits being pulled in from them. It's not unreal to hear people say that they earned thousands of dollars in just 3 days. That's the power of the Firesale. A good Firesale will offer top quality products for an insanely low price, with the price going up by any given percentage or dollar amount throughout the length of the sale. It builds like a fire! Until it's all over and it has burned out, or run it's course.  

There are some marketers that sell products online who dismiss these types of sales and never get involved in them. I feel they are doing themselves a great disservice this way. If you can get some great products for an unheard of price, why not? There are specific tools you need to run such a sale, and speaking from experience I have to say that John Delavera has one of the best called JV Manager. It's pricy, but worth every single penny. Of course there are others, but my money is on John all the way.  

In addition, you'll need to have your own domain and web space that allows you to upload and access .cgi and, or .php files since many of these types of Firesale programs run on this scripting.
