“Seeking a Joint Venture Partner? Do it now, apologize later!”

You’ve started your Ask campaigns and bought Ask domains. What’s next? What other million dollar ideas can you monetize? Read on to find out.

Million Dollar Idea #2: Redirect domain names from your registrar for easy audio referrals. These websites will contain links to audios of what you are talking about. For example, let’s say you’re speaking on a teleseminar. You give listeners the name of your Ask domain which contains an audio file of a previous recorded seminar or product. This is another way to refer people to your products or the products of your joint venture partner.

You need to make sure that you don’t sound like you are trying to earn commission off the website that you refer people to. People don’t want to feel sold to even when you are just earning a commission. You can cloak the commission aspect by referring them to an Ask domain. By going to an Ask domain people can obtain the product you referred them to as well as input their concerns and questions. They will view this as a better trade for their time. They will feel like you are looking out for their best interests, not just for another commission.

Million Dollar Idea #3: Make online proposals to potential million dollar partners. Always make an online proposal in advance. Instead of asking for permission, apologize. This means that you have something to show someone before the proposal. For example, let’s say you want to partner will John Doe. You can buy and set up a domain called AskJohnDoe.com before you approach John Doe.

Then when you do approach John Doe, you will have something to show him. During the proposal presentation you can show him the website and explain how your partnership could benefit the both of you. The worst thing that can happen is that he doesn’t partner with you and you have to shut down the domain. Big deal! Setting up and disabling domains is easy. So don’t be afraid.

By setting up a domain beforehand you are making it easy for your potential joint venture partner to visualize the deal. They can see how you will make money together. They will be able to have concrete proof of how your partnership will work. All the potential joint venture partner has to do is say “yes”.

If the potential partnership says “no” and it doesn’t work out then simply apologize. Take the risk because more often than not your actions will lead to a fruitful joint venture. In fact, you may impress your potential joint venture partner with your skills, tenacity, and savvy.

Basically, you never know unless you ask and the worst they can say is “no”.

“Ask and you shall receive!”

You can use one or a combination of all of these ideas in your Internet business. The leaders in the Internet business world rely on these ideas and so should you.

Million Dollar Idea 1: Buy and utilize Ask domains for profitable partnerships.
An Ask domain is a website that revolves around an Ask campaign. For example, you can partner with a popular business author. You can create an Ask website with this person. It will be an Ask (Name of Author).com website.

Wait, what is an Ask campaign? An Ask campaign utilizes the Socratic Method by asking people what they want. For example, you can ask people about their problems and then create products that solve these problems.

How does an Ask campaign turn into an Ask domain? You set up a domain address such as "Ask(your name).com". On the website have text that says "What is your biggest problem regarding "X"? Have a text box where they can type in their problem. You would be surprised at what people have problems with. This is a much more effective research method then relying on your own opinions and experiences.

You can apply the Ask campaign to many different venues. For example, you can set up an Ask website about your teleseminar. You can also set up an Ask website about your product. For example, let's say your product is a book. You could have a virtual book signing and teleseminar about your book. You can ask people what they want to know about your book and the topic discussed in your book. In the future you can utilize this information to create new products.

This is the first million dollar idea that can get you started. Ask campaigns should be used on a consistent basis if you want to expand your Internet business. Get started on your Ask campaign today.

“The Nuts and Bolts of the Ask Campaign – Part I”

You know that you can reach your customers more effectively by engaging in an Ask Campaign. However, you are not sure how to run an Ask campaign. What should you ask? How should you ask it? Are there steps you can follow? Read on to find out how to run your own Ask campaign and achieve amazing results.

Ask Campaign Steps:Step 1: Ask your customer list this question through email:"What is the single most important question you have about ____?"

For example, if you are an expert in website conversion then you could ask:"Listen, my name is "X" and I'm wondering if you cornered me for five minutes, what is the single most important question you would ask me about converting more websites into cash?"

Send your customer list to a website where they can input their questions. Save the questions into a database.

Step 2: From the questions you receive, pick a smaller number such as 21 questions that you will answer on a teleseminar. Note: You could receive hundreds, even thousands of questions.

Step 3: Send a second email 3-4 weeks later that reminds them of the question you asked in the original email. Tell your customers that you have gone through the questions and deleted an overlap and have picked the 21 most pertinent questions. Tell your customer list that the teleseminar is based on these questions and is titled "The 21 Most Common Questions about "X"".

Your customer list will then attend the teleseminar because they want to see if their question will be answered. Plus, they want to know the answer to the other questions that were asked.
An Ask campaign is a great way to connect with your customers, but also remember these general business tips:

Tip 1: Your business is only as good as the questions you ask.

Tip 2: You don't want to be tied to your product. For example, you may have created a successful product in the past. Your product may now have become obsolete. So instead of sticking with the original product you can create a new product.

For example, one Internet business guru created a popup generator product. Then the market was flooded with popup blockers. So he created a popup blocker product as well. Then he took it one step further and created a software program that will stop the popup blocker so popups could once again show up on a persons' computer.

Combine your Ask campaign with these general business tips and you are setting yourself up for business victory.

“The Origin of the Ask Campaign”

Most people don't know where to begin when they start an online business. Should they go to seminars? Or should they start working on their website immediately? What should you do with your existing list? You can answer all these questions by simply asking.

There is a business technique called the "Ask Campaign". What is the story behind the ask campaign? Let's begin by looking at your current strategies. You need to have several streams of marketing because one or more of the techniques will become obsolete or less effective at some point in time.

For example, you may have an email marketing technique that proves obsolete with new technology. If this is your only marketing stream then you are stuck. But, if you have several marketing techniques you will still be profitable. The key is to then make sure to add back another marketing technique. These marketing techniques can be created using the "Ask Campaign".

The story behind the Ask campaign revolves around working with an athletic business that has an online presence. A bookstore nearby the athletic business was packed. People filled the bookstore because Al Gore was signing books. Why was Al Gore signing books in a bookstore? Didn't he have enough celebrity already because he was the former Vice President?

Then we thought that what if Al Gore had a virtual book signing? For example, he could offer a teleseminar sponsored by his publisher. The first 500 people to sign up for the call could get a free signed copy of his book. Al Gore could then talk about the book: why he wrote, how he wrote it, etc. So for the cost of a $49 teleseminar, you can hear from the author. This is more powerful than a regular book signing. Plus, both authors and fans could listen to the teleseminar from the comfort of their own home in their pajamas!

So we tried to get these type of teleseminars set up with big authors. However, the response from the big time authors was less than desirable. So we gave up. But then thought, wait, what about regular authors? A virtual teleseminar would be fantastic and profitable for authors. You offer a teleseminar for $49 that includes a copy of the book. This way you could have hundreds or even thousands of people versus being stuck in one location, such as a brick and mortar bookstore.

The Ask campaign started with a virtual book signing. We contacted online business people that have written books and have a database list of customers. We asked them to offer a teleseminar.

“The Power of Portable Viral Marketing”

The key to a thriving marketing system is to find the right message and send it to the right target audience. Essentially you have to have the right voice in the right market at the right time. You can find the right voice and right message by asking your audience about what they want. Run an Ask campaign to find out what they want and give it to them.

How important is viral marketing as part of your marketing campaign? Viral marketing is crucial. Advertising and buying media is very expensive whereas viral marketing brings your more advertising for less money and effort. Viral marketing is a way to get people to communicate among themselves through word of mouth.

Technology has enabled people to take everything with them. For example, they have iPods on which they can download print material, audio, and video. If you have print, audio, and video on your website only then you are limiting your options. Why? The attention span on the Internet is very short. You will lose many people before you have finished communicating your message.

Portable devices like the iPod, on the other hand, enable people to download all of your content and listen to it at their leisure. They are much more likely to pay attention to all your content because they can listen to it while at the gym, riding in the car, and wherever they want. Plus, downloading this information is very quick and easy for them.

Viral marketing works better when you tap into communities and social networks. You can survey these circles of people to find out what they want. Ask for information in a non-aggressive manner. Slowly weave your way into these groups to find out what they are looking for.

Viral marketing gives people the ability to do what they know how to do already. It gives them the ability to speak to others about things they are passionate about. These things can be you and your products. Viral marketing is a marketing campaign that is like a snowball going down a hill. The longer the snowball rolls, the bigger the snowball becomes. It builds on itself. Viral marketing follows the same concept.

Also use social networks, such as myspace, to build lists. You can build a friends network on myspace that consists of thousands of people. These are people that you can email at any given time. You can build a relationship with these people. You can promote your products to them. A side benefit is that they will often promote your products to others as well.
