Referral tips
Now that you know how to get cash back from your eBay purchases
with B.C., you may also want to make money when other people
shop eBay and hundreds of other participating retailers like 1.800.
flowers, PetCo, StubHub, Oriental Trading company, and more.
Ten ways to build your downline of referrals:
- Get a pipeline to your upline. Ask your referrer for help --
s/he has a vested interest in your success and should be willing
to provide some "secret sauce" tips or be able to connect with
someone on the team who is willing to share ideas.
- Tell eBay sellers! Buy something on eBay! Every time you win
an eBay auction or BUY NOW, tell the seller exactly how much
money you earned as a cash back to show the potential. If you
ask a question of an eBay seller you may be able to work the
topic in casually. It's a dance to try not to over sell because it's
such a wonderful way to make some extra money. Of course,
sellers should always tell their clients about B.C.!
- Tell eBay buyers, including your clients! If you're a seller
you can use the "Additional Checkout Instructions" section of
listings, and use invoices to evangelize B.C.
- Write a blog. It's easy to add details about B.C. if you write
about passive income, eBay, money making opportunities,
online shopping, collectibles. But you may have an opportunity
to promote B.C. in writing about your other passions. For
example in a blog about parenting, you can write how mom's
can make a little extra. If you write about fishing, you can write
how you won cash back on your latest fishing rod. If you're a
sports enthusiast, you can write about how you got 4% back
from stubhub.com.
- Comment on other people's blogs. This is the easiest way
to evangelize is to find someone else's blog and then comment
on it. You'll need to be careful as often the blog author's have
the ability to moderate. Some blogs allow you to put in a URL,
which is great. Auctionbytes is a wonderful trade publication
that will allow just about any comment.
- Join a social networking site or other online community to
evangelize. These are wonderful for connecting with like minded
people and also offer an opportunity to make money and blog.
- Create your own Web site, like this one, so you can link all
your affiliate commissions in one place to help you make money
on other people's cookies). Be sure to shop GoDaddy! or
Yahoo! on your B.C. account to get the cash back savings.
- Join a traffic exchange program. Traffic Swarm is an
excellent way to build traffic for your Web site.
- Submit your Web site to a search engine. We recommend
ION40 because you can submit your URL, and they'll help you
get good Google rank. You'll earn cash simultaneously.
- Get a free Web page from www.cashbackatebay.com:
How to use your free Web page:
- If you have an eBay store, create a link from your ABOUT ME
page. Or add it to your invoices, "additional checkout
instructions" window, and answer all questions using a
Postscript with your promotional message.
- If you write blogs or comment on other people's blogs, you can
promote your B.C. affiliate link using this URL. In so doing you
disguise the URL destination, so you are sure to get the
referral credit.
- If you have a Web site of your own, you can use your Web
page as a backlink. This will help increase your Google page
rank. And search engines won't recognize it as an affiliate page,
which also boosts your rankings with Alexa traffic rankings.
