Recently, Brad and Shawn Casey got together to discuss the variety of opportunities Free IQ offers that can help you make more money online. We'll post the video as soon as it's available, but in the meantime we wanted to highlight a sample of the suggestions that may prove to be thought starters to increase your business.

As a reminder, the ideal online partner is someone that has:

• Deep subject matter expertise


• Content that people pay for - Consultant, Celebrity, etc


• Many relationships (a list)
  

These content providers can be a great resource to partner with in the content creation process or simply as a referral to Free IQ if they already have a product.

Do you realize what that means? Many people will have a market-ready piece of content produced, but there is a large percentage of experts in the world that have no physical product. What if you guaranteed one of them that you could increase their sales by ‘x’ if they partnered with you?

So, that's the first suggestion today: partner with an excellent content provider and agree on a revenue split, facilitate the product creation and uploading onto Free IQ, make them more money by increasing their exposure, and make a nice cut yourself.

The second reminder, which people often overlook, is that you can create sites to display Free IQ content. Practically, this means that you can publish information so your site gets credit for being the knowledge center on a given topic even though you may know nothing about it! And the content providers, the experts, won't mind because you are promoting them and their expertise.

Shawn actually talks about this in one of his Free IQ training sessions, Making Money With JV’s, Blogs, Minisites and More.

The final suggestion today challenges you to use video in ways you may not have considered before. The idea is that if you are doing any sort of product launch, or announcement of any kind, video needs to be a key component. It's proven that sales letters have a higher conversion rate when they contain video, and that video ads are more productive than static text and traditional banner ads. So, utilize the embed link within Free IQ and place your video wherever you are trying to convert a user to a customer, whether it be on your company site, email or a blog.

The marketing days without video are over.

Publish video wherever you are publishing marketing messages and watch your business grow.
