    Hello people, have you ever considered the power of FREE in your business?

    I know FREE may seem like a bit of a fad or non productive but lets look at all of the huge
    companies that use the marketing technique that is FREE...

    Theres facebook for instance. On there actual homepage it clearly says "Its free and it always will be"

    Now facebook is valued at around $100 billion how is that if its free? Well they first provide an excellent
    service and then they sell services on the inside. Ofcourse the fact that they are huge helps them along
    but you do not have to be a huge company to offer free valuable info and services first!


    Now lets take a look at google almost everything that google offer is FREE. Goolge maps, google keyword tool,
    youtube, google +, gmail, reader, play, tranlsate and many more.

    But what do thes two giants have in common? They both funnel people in and offer services on the inside...

    Loads of other companies are doing the same thing and so should you be...

    For instance some companies give away FREE magazines and even FREE merchandise to attract customers
    into thire funnel

    Email marketing is no different in that we can offer a valuable, useful FREE gift to attract people into our sales
    funnel. You see we want to be able to connect with people when ever we can; We do this buy capturing
    emails and we capture the emails by offering some for of value for FREE...

    Later on we sell!

    See FREE is not just a marketing fad it is a marketing technique..

    Add FREE to your funnel and build a list of market interested contacts.

    It is how most huge companies are working online so why not copy success...

    Good Luck

    Kindest Regards Louis Doughty

    No matter how many people knew that there is not a good quality or bad review on Free item but yet it is the higher search in the market.
    Who don't want to take part since it free and won't influence them much to get free thing .
    Free thing is always a good way to build your customers and awareness in order to generate more sales in future.

    FREE is most search keyword for IM beginner, therefore if we want to give away free stuff for advanced IM then it should be quality product or information.

    Great post and giving away free reports is how I build an email list. The only thing is that some of your subscribers will be forever stuck in "free" mode, so you really have to deliver value in order to hopefully see some revenue from them. The relationship building and trust phase can take awhile.
