Today is the start of one of my favorite sporting events of the year, The Masters. This is the golf tournament that is held at Augusta National Golf Course in Augusta, Georgia and is invitation only. Pretty much, you don’t just say, ‘I am going to play in the Masters this year’, or next. You have to earn your way in by winning and be extended an invitation to play in the tournament.

Yes, I am rooting for Tiger Woods to win it, but not just because he is by far the best golfer in the world right now. You see, I have been a golf fan since way back when…I grew up rooting for the likes of the Golden Bear, The Merry Mex, Arnie, and Tom Watson. I am rooting for Tiger because he has brought the game back and made it more popular than it has ever been before.

The Masters is very similar to one of my favorite things in the Information Marketing world; Giveaway Events. You see, you don’t just ‘join’ one, you have to be extended an invitation to participate in one, or several.

How do you get extended an invitation? To begin with, you need to be on someones mailing list. You can do that by signing up for somebody’s newsletter, and if that person is one who participates in these events, you will receive an email from them to become a member of whatever giveaway they are promoting.

Here is a list of the giveaways currently going on:

Easter JV Giveaway
Back To Basics Giveaway
Kings Ransom Giveaway
Peter Cotton Tail Giveaway
Power Dynamtics Giveaway
Mothers Day Giveaway

Once you join that giveaway, you become a subscriber of someone elses mailing list. Now, once you have joined the event, you have the option to upgrade. What the upgrade does in most of these giveaway events, is it gives you the ability to download any gifts you want without having to subscribe to someone elses list. If you don’t upgrade, each gift that you want to download, you will have to subscribe to another list. Now, you do have the ability to unsubscribe from these lists if you want, especially if the person you downloaded from doesn’t provide you with any valuable content (that’s what I, at the very least attempt to do with my subscribers), which a majority of them don’t.

I can’t remember the first giveaway event I got into, I just remember that I thought it was very cool that there are people out there (I almost said marketers), that were willing to give you something for free in exchange for your email address. Of course, that was almost two years ago, and I have learned a ton since then.

One of the things that I have learned, was that in order to successfully be a contributor to these events (and there are a lot of them), you need to have an eproduct that is attractive to the visitors of these events. Once you have found an ebook like this, you can get your autoresponder set up to gather the email addresses of the people who download your product. It’s at this point that you have the capabilty to start sending them valuable content that relates to the product that they have gotten from you.

What that means, is that if they have downloaded a book on dog training, you don’t want to all of a sudden start sending them offers for the best way to take care of your lawn. That makes sense doesn’t it?

Now, go back and read the title of this post. You’re probably asking yourself ‘how’ you go about ‘mastering’ the art of participating in giveaway events. Let me tell you this, most people who are invited to join these giveaway events and want to contribute to grow their own mailing lists, don’t get this part.

The Easy Giveaway Plan will show you how to master this process, and once you have, you can start increasing the number of people on your mailing list and lining your bank accounts with cash.

So, go pick up a couple of products from any one of the giveaways listed above and then pick up The Easy Giveaway Plan and be well on your way to building your list and becoming independently wealthy.

Til next time,

Here’s to YOUR Successes,

Ron
