Today’s news is a little about me… and all about you.

Firstly, about me, or should I say, Kikabink. We’re in the process of ‘reskinning’ our website. It’s not perfect yet. Well, it won’t ever be ‘perfect’ but there are a few issues we’re still addressing. Feel free to take a look, and if you notice something that doesn’t work or look quite right, please let me know!

Enough about us. Let’s talk about you.

I have several free – and HIGHLY valuable – gifts for you.

Gift #1: Killer Internet Marketing Tips

My first gift to you is a brand new ebook called Killer Internet Marketing Tips.

But that’s not all.

Gift #2: Killer Internet Marketing Interviews

My second gift to you is the Killer Internet Marketing Interview series – a series of four (4) approx. 60 minute audio interviews conducted with four wonderful, successful Internet marketers.

Now let me say up front, these are NOT your ordinary Internet marketing interviews. They’re not thinly veiled sales pitches or boring discussions about stuff you already know.

No way. When I invited each person to participate in the interview with me, I specifically told them I was planning a no-holds barred interview where I would ask tough questions and expect honest answers.

I wanted them to tell me – and YOU – the truth about what it takes to build a successful Internet marketing business.

I’m pleased to say… that’s exactly what they did.

So if you’re tired of superficial, fluffy, hypey interviews and want to hear four successful Internet marketers tell it like it really is… you’ll love these interviews!

Okay maybe “trash” is exaggerating (although see my example below!). Still, Internet marketing blogger Yaro Starak makes a good argument that you can (and probably should) write a product review that reveals the flaws of a product… and still expect to sell it through your affiliate link.

Yaro explains that while most Internet marketing product reviews are sales pitches - and that part of his motivation in writing product reviews is to sell products - by explaining the negatives as well as the positives, he ends up selling more.

I’m reminded of a product review I wrote on another blog a year or so ago. I called the product lame… and I still got an affiliate commission out of it! I’m not sure whether someone forgot to clear their cookies… or really did want to buy a lame product… or dismissed my product review… but it just goes to prove anything’s possible!

In any case, Yaro indicates that it IS possible to write genuine product reviews AND sell products if you follow these four guidelines:

1. Pick products you’re interested in that are relevant to your audience.

2. Write a thorough review after studying the product.

3. Build up credibility as a trusted source in the industry.

4. Build a large audience so that when you say something, enough people listen.

This is pretty much the approach we take at Kikabink News. I will say, however, that apart from the strange example above, we won’t write promotional product reviews UNLESS we genuinely endorse the product.

(No, I DON’T believe you can trash a product and sell it!)

Bottom line: if you plan to run a review site, be sure to discuss the cons as well as the pros of a product you review. Chances are you’ll build up more credibility and, in the long run, more affiliate sales.

When you think about the businesses that you patronize again and again… is it because they continually bombard you with sales pitches? Or because they consistently deliver a great quality product or service?

It’s obvious isn’t it - you keep on buying because of the great quality product or service.

The same principle applies to YOUR online business.

While I’m a strong advocate of reminding customers of the value you provide, and making them aware of the other great products and services you offer… at the end of the day, the BEST thing you can do to get existing customers to keep on buying - and buying more - from you, is to provide them with a top quality product or service.

This too will get your customers talking to others, and spreading the good word about your business. And word of mouth marketing is probably the most powerful!

So, if you want to sell more to your existing customers, deliver on your promise - indeed EXCEED your promise - in terms of delivering a great quality product or service.
