Today I want to reveal to you a great no cost lead strategy.
Visualize having an army of lead magnets spread everywhere on the web on your side passively 7 days a week 24 hours a day. They can't call in sick, they can't plan to take the day off, they are work horses and are all at your command.
Just what I am revealing is forum marketing. In case you haven't heard of forum marketing or if you're not using, you are really missing out on a beneficial and consistent strategy to receive free leads.
There is an art to it, and in no way am I saying that you troll forums and spam your idea everywhere. The key behind it is to have a captive signature file with an irresistible, attention grabbing call to action.
An element that is absolutely good about marketing on forums is you don't even need a website. Just use your signature file and a responsive email responder. When you craft your call to action inside the signature file, you have the reader email your email autoresponder for the free report.
Now to the art of it all. Choose 3 to 5 forums that you are enthusiastic about the content or niche. Create an account in each. Then everyday post or comment on three to five threads per day.
Whenever you post, its critical that you share value. What that means is either start thread posing a question and beginning a quality conversation or you post in someone else's thread. The idea is to share your information and your beliefs about the subject in the thread to help out the current and the future readers of the thread. Do not spam the threads. It truly is horrible for branding and it will get you banned from the forum.
If you do this everyday in 5 forums with 5 post or threads each. That will yield you 25 little army men of lead soldiers out there doing your work for you everyday. That's 750 new lead soldiers added monthly that are visible to opportunity seekers that are curious about your subject! This has an massive compounding effect. What are you waiting for? Get out there and start your forum marketing!
