The advertising co-op is an Internet marketingstrategy that should bring sustained financialsuccess.

(1)Responsive highly targeted advertising

(2)Low cost

How An Advertising Co-op Works

Members of the same program pool their money topay for advertising. Typically, a co-op group willconsist of 3-12 members.

The best advertising buy is often a solo ad or top sponsor ad in an ezine. Let's say for example that a top sponsor ad in an ezine costs $120 (US). If 10 members participate in the co-op, the cost per individual is only $12 (US).

Suddenly, highly targeted advertising is within reach of everybody. The members should be advertising a program where each member has his/her own individual referral url.

To organize the co-op you'll need:

(1)an URL (website) rotator

(2)ad trackers

When the ezine ad is run, the ad will contain the URL of a rotator. Inserted in the rotator will be the referral URLS of the co-op members. As ezine readers click on the URL in the ad, the referring website URLS come up in rotation for the co-op members.

To insure the integrity of the co-op each member should convert their referral URL to an ad trackingURL and submit this second url to the co-op organizer.

Each time the ad tracker URL is clicked a hit will be recorded by the ad tracking program. All co-op members can be assured that the ad responses are distributed evenly since they can compare number of hits with other co-op members.

It is an advertising axiom that TARGETED ADVERTISING brings the best results. By TARGETED I mean you are advertising directlyto a group that has demonstrated an interest in essentially the area you are promoting.

Such as advertising a search engine submission service in an ezine devoted to website promotion.

Final thoughts:

(1)Do not advertise in any ezine you have not subscribed to.

You want to make sure the ezine offers QUALITYinformation and is being read by its subscribers.

(2)Distribute a list of co-op participants with nameand email address to all co-op members.

(3)For network marketers the advertising co-op is theperfect promotional choice.

(4)If you are a member of a free-to-join multilevel advertising program, where you can contactdownline members, organizing a co-op can have longterm benefits for a very modest cost.

Even though you are doing paid advertising for aprogram that does not give an immediate cash rewardto co-op members via 'sales', THE LIFETIME BENEFITSFROM INCREASING YOUR ADVERTISING FIREPOWER CAN BE DRAMATIC!
