MAKE $800 A MONTH WITH AFFILIATE DROP CARDS

WHAT IS IT :

A business card with eye catching ad copy that promotes a
www.Clickbank.com or www.JVzoo.com affiliate ebook for sale.

(see example affiliate drop card below)

WHERE TO GET AFFILIATE PRODUCTS:

The 2 best and simplest places to sign-up for free and to find affiliate
ebook products to promote are at: www.ClickBank.com and
www.JVzoo.com and you want to choose a ebook to promote that has a
wide appeal to most people, such as making money, weight loss or
gambling, etc.

Note:

Once you pick and sign-up to promote an ebook product you will be given
an affiliate link that is very long, such as this:

498950leszm6vfy7w4o-0xrp9k.hop.clickbank.net

and that link won't fit easily onto your drop card, so what you will want to
do is one of two options to turn that long affiliate link into a shorter link.
First option is you can use for free www.TinyUrl.com and turn your long
affiliate link above into a shorter personalized link, such as this:

tinyurl.com/dropcardprofits

which will now fit easily onto your drop card and make it simple
for people to type out and get to your affiliate ebook products sales page.

Second option which is the best choice as it will look more professional is
to buy a domain name, such as a .com or .info at: www.CheapDomain.com
that is personalized to the affiliate ebook your promoting and then have it
forwarded for free to your affiliate link, which will take people to your
affiliate ebook sales page.

HOW TO MAKE THEM :

By using a basic desktop publishing program such as PrintShop or
OpenOffice, just copy the basic design of the sample drop card above or
come up with your own design and then on card stock paper print out 10
drop cards to a page and print out 50 pages to give you 500 drop cards,
which is the least amount I recommend to print out and distribute and
once you have them printed out simply using a paper cutter cut out your
drop cards to the size of a regular business card.

WHERE TO DISTRIBUTE THEM:

The success of this idea will depend on the amount of drop cards you get
out into the public and seen, so here is a short brief list of places to leave
your drop cards:

Shopping Malls, Bulletin Boards, Sporting Events, Gas Stations, Flea
Markets, Restrooms, Etc.

Everywhere you go carry drop cards with you and leave them where ever
you can and you can also get more drop cards out to the public if you just
hand them out to people as you see them, as I said this ideas success
is a numbers game, so the more drop cards you hand out the more people will
see them and the more you can earn.

PROFIT POTENTIAL :

If you pass out 500-1000 drop cards a week you should average 20+ sales
a week, so if your affiliate commission per sale is $10, then you will earn
$200 a week or $800 a month.

To your success,

Martin

    You could also ramp this idea up and use - flyers and postcard mailers.

      I have been using drop cards for years...

      The ones that look like real money work great:



      But my double sided full color business cards that promote
      my weight loss site work far better than the drop cards do
      when used as Dale Calvert advises in the below video.

      Plus my site promotes a real physical weight loss product that
      people will sign up for on a monthly autoship plan so the recurring
      monthly profits are far better than any click bank digital product.

      I think the reason why handing the cards out as opposed to just
      dropping them works so much better is because of the 3 second
      negative statement you make when handing a card out... then you
      walk away. This creates a lot of curiosity that compels them to go
      check your site out.


      Cheers,
      Steve

    Does anyone else just get a spinner when trying to view the card?

      Just open the image in a new tab and it will work no problem. In Foxfire on Windows- Right Click over image, select Open Link in New Tab.

        Martin I have noticed a lot of your business ideas are centered around different types of discount cards. Do you honestly make a good profit off of each of them? Is the pizza card the most profitable?

          Yes, my main income comes from my offline pizza card and discount card business.

        BTW this an interesting technique..just wondering how much response you get from this. Maybe best to send seekers to an autoresponder, right?

    I don't know in other countries but this is pretty much saturated in Malaysia. People are biz card blinded now here from my experience. I've noticed in several occasions people taking the biz cards and throw em in the nearest bins.

    Now it only relates to the "Making money" and "lose weight" niche. I don't know for others.

    The aim of marketing is to make selling superfluous. The aim of marketing is to know and understand the customer so well that the product or service fits him and sells itself.....

    This sounds something similar to handing out CPA offers via flyers in a public stadium and area.

    It never really striked me as something that worked, but then again maybe I'm a bit of a Doubting Thomas.

    The smart thing to do here is hook up your offer with a steady distribution channel related to your offer.

    Dating niche? Give a florist commission, and have your card go out with every order.

    Dollar store. Thrift shop. Card goes out at the bottom of every bag. Anything especially where you can find an independent owner/operator you can talk to. They'll be interested in making extra money for no effort, and no corporate red tape.

    'Course...you gotta go talk to them, and that's going to scare a lot of people off.

      Thanks for sharing your ideas and thought, I am in the work of setting up the bag idea with a new money making idea I'm working on, so I will post here once I get all the details worked out and make money with it.

      All the best,

      Martin

    I never thought of drop cards for anything other than MLM but this is brilliant, with the right weight loss offer.

    bad question, what is drop card?

    I just heard, is it like brochure/pamphlet?
    {{ DiscussionBoard.errors[8424870].message }}
    • Profile picture of the author MartinBuckley
      A drop card is simply a full color business card that promotes an affiliate
      product or CPA offer on each side and you drop them on the ground, or place them in high traffic areas where people will see it and pick it up and
      keep it and hopefully order or sign up for the offer you are promoting on your drop card.

      All the best,

      Martin

      If you've got a good offer, Fiverr has plenty of gigs for handing out flyers (just ad some sort of tracking code, or ask them to take pix for reliability issues), and of course if you're a do-it-yourselfer, you can check out your local college. Usually there are plenty of tech students, so handing out cards between classes near the computer labs, and this will usually work well for IM sorts of offers. You can probably find a good department for handing out all sorts of niche offers. If you're shy and don't like chatting it up, bulletin boards are everywhere on campus!
