Conversion Tip, Free Stock Photos & Blog Inspiration
Published: Thu, 11/26/15
I just found these brand new free stock photos, and they're really good. You can download them from: http://www.freestockphotos.org I just downloaded a whole slew of them myself.
I find one of the easiest ways to brainstorm new blog topics is to browse through my photos or images. Often those images will spark a great topic for me!If you need some FRESH blogging inspiration, browse through the photos from HubSpot at the link above and find one that inspires a great blog post for you!
The "blog" image you see in this email is one of those free stock images. :-)
That brings up another "content idea" tip: Whatever you're doing, thinking, buying, trying, testing, etc that is relevant to your niche... is something you should share with them! Just like I'm sharing this resource with you here. :)
Consider something you've read lately, a cool resource you found online, something you bought, etc - and share that with YOUR audience. To give you another example, I was searching for "low carb gifts" on Amazon (I'm a low carb blogger) and found some great gift baskets - so I shared those with my readers. You can see just one of my updates here as a live example.
While I did use my Amazon link in that update, I don't consider that "selling" - simply "sharing". It's important to get your readers used to Product Talk. Discuss products with them freely, in a conversational way! I often mention products or companies & brands I'm not even affiliated with, and link to them or tag them in the same way I would when I'm doing a "promotion" (for profit).
Don't be afraid to sell, recommend, or just DISCUSS products. You are a market leader in your niche, and your readers would LOVE to hear your opinions! :-)
One more tip...
Read: Good Marketing Answers the ‘Why’ Question
It's a short read, but an important point that will make a BIG difference in your conversions. You're familiar with the concept I'm sure, but that post makes a really good point on the topic.
This is the reason the word "Because" is one of my favorite. Always use the word "Because" in your blog posts, social updates, emails to your lists, etc - basically in all of your content. Whether you actually USE the word itself, make sure you make the "because" clear to your reader... because it drives home your point and helps your reader make their buying (or clicking) decision. ;-)
* I realize it's Thanksgiving in the U.S. - Happy Thanksgiving! - but I'm committed to sending you tips you can USE as we close out this year... with just 35 days to go!
Grab the free stock photos, write a cool new blog post, get your BECAUSE positioned... and make sure you share some great Black Friday & Cyber Monday deals with your readers over the next few days! *cheers*

p.s. I grabbed these 6 Instant Profit Stream Products yesterday. Someone asked me if I bought the OTO on the next page. I did not - I just grabbed the main package of products you can resell for quick profit, or use to build your email lists. The other offers are great deals, but I didn't look them over very well.
Since all six of the products come with private label rights (and sales pages!), you can easily edit/update/customize them to your liking to make totally unique products to sell. Or you can just sell them as is, use them as bonuses (to your own products, to your affiliate promotions), etc.
