FrugalIM: Resources for the Frugal Internet Marketer

Just a short post to introduce Frugal IM, my new mailing list for the frugal Internet marketer. One of the things I’ve been doing over the past year (and surely regular readers have noticed) is purchasing infoproducts and reviewing them here. This has been partly out of interest, but also partly for research. I’d love to be able to sell 4000 copies of an ebook just like Blogging To The Bank has done over the past couple of weeks. (Hey, I’m happy to sell 4000 copies of one of my printed books, so of course I’d be ecstatic to sell a similar number of more profitable ebooks.) So I’ve been buying these things and seeing what it is they do that makes them so successful (or not). I may post some thoughts about this whole process at a later date, but I’m sure I could sell a lot more copies of Uncommon AdSense (well, it’s probably not new enough now — I’d have to come up with a new product) by cranking up the hype level and engaging big-name JV partners. I’m not sure I want to do that, but again that’s for another discussion…

Anyhow, because of all of this research I’ve actually gotten my hands on a number of products with resale rights. Instead of letting them gather dust on my hard drive, I thought I’d offer them to my readers. Most can only be sold, not given away, nor can they be placed on membership sites. Which means I can only sell them via a website or a mailing list…. hence the Frugal IM mailing list. Join the list and I’ll send you a free ebook on article marketing (I do have a few I can give away) and then you’ll get no-hype emails on a regular basis offering you one or more infoproducts at cheap prices. See the site for more details and the signup form. If you have any questions, just use the contact form to drop me a note, or see the frequently-asked questions list.

Coming next, we’ll return to our normal programming. I’m going to talk more about my Invisible Fence Guide and attempt to answer the question What kind of sites do successful AdSense publishers create?. Hint: it isn’t about authority.
