Cross Promote Online For Maximum Profits

Cross promoting is when two or more businesses promote their products or services together. I try to find businesses that have the same target audience, but are not in direct competition with my business. Doing cross promotions with other businesses increases your profits, sales, and beats your competition.


How do you find businesses to cross promote with?

* Participate in e-mail discussion groups, online forums and newsgroups that deal with your target audience

* Subscribe to e-zines that deal with your targeted audience

* Note on your Web site or e-zine that you are interested in cross promoting your products and services

* Search in your favorite web directories and search engines to find targeted businesses


Cross promoting has many benefits.

* Save money by sharing the advertising and marketing costs

* Save time when both businesses share the workload

* You can offer your customers new products and services

*


Get referrals from the other business’ clients

* Receive valuable information from the business


Once you find a business you would like to cross promote with, simply e-mail them your proposal. Tell the business owner the benefits of the cross promotion. Explain to him or her why it would be a win/win situation for both of your businesses. Tell them what you like about their business, web site, products and services. Using these methods will increase your chances for a profitable cross promotion partnership.
