Internet Marketing – JV Giveaway Events
by Gary ~ November 1st, 2009
Today I want to talk to you about another Internet Marketing concept – that of the Joint Venture Giveaway, or more commonly just referred to as JV Giveaways.
WHAT IS A JV GIVEAWAY?
Basically, a JV Giveaway is a script that allows a marketer to invite a lot of other marketers to a web page to share their products in an event whereby the contributors (ie marketers) can offer their wares (e-books, reports, scripts, memberships etc) free to members (“customers”) in exchange for a person’s name and email address.
The marketer gains the subscriber and adds his or her name and email address to his list. The member gets whatever items they like the look of and can learn from for free. It’s a two-way exchange.
ONLINE JV GIVEAWAYS ARE LIKE REAL WORLD TRADE EXHIBITIONS:
Here’s a good way to conceptualize it if you are still wondering…
In essence, online JV Giveaways are like those big offline (real world) trade fairs we see from time to time where exhibitors put up their stalls and members of the public (and other exhibitors) get to wander around looking for items of interest.
WHAT’S THE BEST WAY OF GETTING STARTED IN JV GIVEAWAYS?
If you are new to Internet Marketing then the best way to understand them is to start out as a member and just go and have a look at how they work. There are a lot of details that I could add but it would probably only serve to confuse you. So, I encourage you to check a few out.
NOW TO ONE INCREDIBLY POWERFUL GIVEAWAY…
If you are an experienced Internet Marketer and you have a product that you would like to promote to build your list then you won’t find a better or more profitable Giveaway than the 100% Giveaway being conducted right now by Rodger Hyatt and Ryan Bessling.
It runs from 13 November 2009 to 30 November 2009. As at today (1 November 2009) in ONLY its 4th day of opening for the contributors to place their gifts (and text ads and special offers) at the Giveaway, there are already 916 contributors who have joined. That’s incredible! This event is drawing contributors like a magnet. And it will draw members the same way.
For any contributor wanting to join this HUGE JV Giveaway Event, you can get in on my invite link HERE: http://100percentgiveaway.com/go/35/jv
The free option gets you ONE gift to offer. But…
… an upgrade which costs only $9.97 (a mere pittance as opposed to the $27 or $37 in most other Giveaways) and it allows:
THREE gifts, two text ads, one promo page and your first gift up on the Random Hot Downloads page. These are tremendous advantages over the free offer.
The 100% part means that 100% of the sales you generate come to YOU – and that’s regardless of whether you upgrade or not. But… DUH! For $9.97 who wouldn’t upgrade?
So, check that Giveaway out. It’s the biggest and best I’ve seen all year! Well done to Rodger and Ryan for this.
PS: If you want to know how to participate in JV Giveaways to build your list or sell some products then get my Adswaps report (available right here on my blog). The Appendix explains the procedure in quite some detail. I know it works well because several beginners have already used my instructions to enter their first JV Giveaway events.

Gary,
Thanks for the Adswaps ebook. This is new territory for me and I’m looking forward to learning about it! It really sounds like a win-win for everyone involved! -norene

Hey Gary,
JV Giveaways are a great way to build your list. I’ve been using them for awhile now and have added many subscribers to my lists using this method. I’m usually involved in 2 or 3 giveaways at any given moment.
I must agree that the “100% Giveaway” is one of the best and biggest giveaway events of the year. And yes Gary, I do believe I used your link you sent me on Skype to sign up as a contributor.
One thing I want to add here is that even though you have purchased the upgrade which allows you to have more than one gift it’s still very important that you promote the giveaway. Some people think that because they purchased this upgrade they don’t have to promote but that’s not the way it works.
I know I don’t come around as much but I’m still watching you so you had better watch your P’s and Q’s. LOL!
Later,
Jeff Sargent

Hi Gary,
You are writing exactly what I need to learn these days. Thanks for the e-book. I’ve read it quickly and now I’ll be studying it closely. It is very well done.
I pay attention to your advice to use original products for giveaways which is why I haven’t joined one. I don’t have a product of my own yet.
When I do I may want you to review it first if you will be willing to do it.
I know how busy you are and time is limited.
I finally changed the look of my blog so it is closer to the look you suggested to me a few moths ago when you said “give it a busy look” or something like that.
Talk soon,
Vance

Hi folks, sorry for the delay in responding. I was in another city for a week attending a celebratory dinner for the 25th Anniversary of an Association that I am a member of. I decided not to take my laptop. I just needed a break.
@ Norene – If you read my Adswap e-book you will be a “full bottle” on the subject. There is an appendix at the back that will also walk you through how to set up a gift in a JV Giveaway too.
@ Jeff – thanks for the comment. Everyone is so busy. I do appreciate you coming here. Thanks for joining the 100% Giveaway. This is definitely the BIGGEST Giveaway of the year. There were about 1,550 contributors at the height of the contributor phase.
As you say, you must promote these events to stay active. Unfortunately, more than 1,000 people didn’t do that and they have now been downgraded to “member status.” But even with 450 active contributors in there it is still a HUGE event.
@ Vance – get to it mate. Get a nice ORIGINAL product for yourself. Look for a “knowledge gap” – ie things that people want to know about, research it and write it or video it. I prefer books. Nikki Stephens did just that and wrote a nice Social Networking expose.
Vance, get half a dozen people to review it. I may be able to give it a quick look over. Here’s a big hint… edit, edit, edit! Make it your very best before you get others to review it. That INCLUDES a spell check. I am always AMAZED at the number of people who don’t bother to do that and their work is choc-a-block with tons of simple spelling errors.
Thanks Norene, Jeff and Vance.
Gary
