    The main aim of the promotion is to:

    gain trust of new customers
    build a mailing list
    increase brand awareness

    Cheers

    I'd say free e-books is a good approach, as long as they are good quality.

    I currently sell two ebooks on the site, I could offer one for free. I like the idea of something like keyrings or something like that. people see a keyring everyday constantly reminding them!

    ebook is pretty good plus you cut shipping cost. Besides, you can also do pens, keychain (like the person above me mentioned), pen holder, etc
