Promotional Tactic #8: Offline Advertising

This method has been around for a long, long time, but it's funny that hardly anyone is using it for affiliate marketing. Before the internet, people had to rely on other methods to generate leads for them. And even to this day, advertising offline is still a great way to make some Musclehead sales as an affiliate.

In fact, I know of one guy who makes his entire income by advertising in local newspapers, larger newspapers and niche magazines. It's quite easy, although you may have to do a little testing before you find a real winner. This isn't a free method, so it helps to have a little cash handy.

Your first step is to find some publications that would match the Musclehead's product. Local newspapers might not be the most targeted, but you can usually get an ad in these papers for around $10, so even if it does flop, you won't be completely broke.

The absolute best places to put these ads are fitness related magazines. I suggest you grab one of the banners that we've made for you, then place them in the magazines.

Now, there's an important step here that you MUST do. Go and register another domain name and put that domain name in your ad. Redirect that domain name to your affiliate link and away you go. It's really that simple. Think about some of the bigger magazines out there, can you imagine how many eyes are going to be seeing your ad? Some affiliates are making a decent income from this alone, so definitely don't discount this method.

Just as a last note, if you are going to try offline advertising, make sure you contact me beforehand. Offline advertising can be a great way to lose heaps of money if you don't know what you're doing, so don't hesitate to email me.
