Scrapbooking Freebies

Scrapbook Freebies - The Enormous Value Of A Giveaway

Everyone loves a scrapbook freebie, right? Research shows us that literally thousands of people a month search for scrapbooking freebies at Google and other search engines - perhaps you are among them?

And the best way to have a profitable business is to find out what people want - and then give it to them! If you know what your customers are looking for - and in this case we absolutely do - then half your work is done for you.

But, you say, giving something away ultimately has a cost. It costs you time and/or money to provide it.

Well maybe initially, but scrapbook freebies are nevertheless a must in your business because far from being an expense they give you so many opportunities to profit.

For a start, give one for signing up for your newsletter. Follow up with valuable help and information, and eventually include the chance for your newsletter subscribers to buy from you. Make it a discounted price, make it a "subscriber special" for example, and not only do you get a chance to profit but you make your customer feel special too.

Another way to employ this tactic is with digital scrapbooking. Give someone a free sample to prove the value of your work. Give someone some digital scrapbook elements to prove that your larger offer is of high quality and great value. Include a "satisfaction guarantee" and people will be comfortable buying from you.

Of course you always have to be careful to value that trust. Don't abuse people's confidence by offering second rate goods or by hitting them with a newsletter once a week that's just packed with stuff for sale. That will just tick people off and word of poor service spreads fast, which will do your scrapbooking business no good at all. Use scrapbooking freebies as a way in, then treat people as you would like to be treated and you'll go from strength to strength.
