Hello it’s Tak Hikichi here. I appreciate you taking busy time
reading this newsletter this week.

========================
NEW PLR DOWNLOAD LINK
========================

This week, I am providing a download link for PLR called, “List
Building for Newbies”, (Short report) produced by Adeel Chowdhry.

I uploaded this product not necessarily for the content, but for the
overall strategy that the product creator proposes.

There is something remarkable taking place here.  Take a look at
his business model.

- Adeel’s Business Model -

1. He obtains a PLR that has giveaway rights.

2. Creates brand new set of graphics for the product.

3. Writes up a sales letter to include or to actually use.

4. Give it away to his list or new subscribers.

Imagine repeating this a few times a year using JV Giveaway events.
Each yielding a few hundreds subscribers when you give away…

This “one time” effort can yield residual income stream.

Well, here is the download link – this has no restriction, do what
you want with it. Be creative.

>> SUBSCRIBER ONLY LINK

===================================
USING OPEN SOURCE TO YOUR ADVANTAGE
===================================

If you heard of Open Source movement, you know what I am referring
to.  Things like WordPress, PDF converter by OpenOffice org etc.

I wanted to tell you about two exciting tools (no cost) for the
graphic challanged people (like me).

===============================
FLEXIBILITY THEME FOR WORDPRESS
===============================

1. One is brand new:

Flexibility Theme for WordPress

http://www.flexibilitytheme.com/

These set of new themes finally enable you customize header, footer
background images from within your WordPress Admin Panel.

I’ve never hired designer for WordPress themes, I’ve only used free
version, but free ones do have limits.

With these themes, you’ll on your way out of that.

==============
SUMO PAINT
==============

2. Sumo Paint is the second one I think you’re going to like.

Take a look at this tool – this pretty much allows you to have
Photoshop experience online.

With photoshop skills, you can do very cool stuff online.

–

A. You can touch and edit a photo – like that of my daughter

My daughter (8 months old) Isn’t she cute?

or

B. Create a BRAND NEW PRODUCT Around It.

1. Go to Elance at http://www.elance.com

2. Tell service providers how you’ll like someone to create a
tutorial ebook or video slides on how to use SUMO paint.

3. Hire a graphic designer for your new product.

4. Sell it online, advertising your brand new product that explains
how to use Sumo Paint.

– Now you have your own product to sell, if it’s a video product,
you can rightfully charge good price.

People are always on the look out for alternatives for expensive
softwares.  If you position yourself as someone who can teach
alternative “secrets” to this market, you’ll have another business
model.

==========================
MY HONEST TRUTH COMES OUT
==========================

If you’re like me, you probably feel the same way.  All these tools
are great and they certainly provide alternative solutions to EXISITING
challenges.

But if you haven’t used graphic tools in the past, chances are,
just because I am introducing you to a new set of tools today, even
if they’re provided free to you, you still wouldn’t use them.

Right?

You’ll probably read about it, don’t do anything and put it off.

I think that’s totally fine.

But if you leave it undone, things will never get completed.

So if you DON’T like creating graphics (even with the help of free
tools), then start networking with those who have good reputation.

This is when I go visit Warrior Forum

By visiting Warrior Forum, you can’t help but to notice players in
each area of product creation.  Some people are known as graphic
gurus, others are video guy/girl etc.

Make daily or weekly visits with them, get to know them while
growing your Skype list.

When you have a project and you don’t feel like doing any of its work,
you can outsource to the trusted source, instead of going with
someone you met through Elance.

Elance is good, but that’s my last option.

– Marketing is not always about what you know, but who you know.

=================
SEE YOU NEXT WEEK
=================

Merry Christmas to everyone and have great holiday season this year!

Thank you for reading the newsletter this week!

I just purchased a Master Resale Rights for Adeel
Chowdhry’s new ebook.

I originally purchased it with an intent to market, but
for you as a subscriber, I’m just going to give it
to you.

Here is the download link for ebook (Download Begins Automatically).
>> http://asktak.com/reports/asebookonly.zip (687 KB)

and here is the download link for the Reseller pack (Download Begins Automatically).

>> REMOVED (Available Only for LIST SUBSCRIBERS)

++++++++++++++

The reason I wanted to get this to you is when I first
began marketing online as an affiliate, I added bonuses
to build greater value in an affiliate offer.

This works especially great when you have a list.

A launch comes out, your list knows about it, they want
to purchase from someone and you offer nice bonuses.

Then I began making more money repeating it.

++++++++++++++

It’s easy to do because all you have to do is show them
links saying, “If you go to this website, this product
is sold at $27, but you can get it from me” and
actually have visitors go to such websites and let them
realize that they’re getting a better deal.

Make sense?  Just double check your rights come with
not only Master Resale Rights (MRR) and also Giveaway
rights otherwise you can’t just give away without the
permission from the product owner.

I already emailed Adeel and said he is fine with me doing
this.

So here is the download links again.

Ebook link
>> http://asktak.com/reports/asebookonly.zip (687 KB)

Reseller pack link
>> REMOVED (Available Only for LIST SUBSCRIBERS)

You can have both or either one.  But if you download
the reseller pack, you can customize the website.

++++++++++++++++

But here is one problem when you do this to build
“Email List” with a product like this.

The problem is, when you give away a product that belongs
to someone else, you’re only building brand for that
marketer instead of your own.  And as long as you’re
promoting someone else’, you really won’t become
super great at Internet Marketing.

So how do you overcome this???

I have a solution…

You can giveaway classic like Napoleon Hill’s
“Think and Grow Rich”.

Here is the download link

>> http://www.takuyahikichi.com/thinkandgrowrich.pdf

You see, this way, you’re not building brand for anyone
other than you.  And giving away classic books like this
is a good incentive for list building.

So let’s recap this.

1. You obtain products to giveaway or come up with your
own (See >> http://www.minireportcreationguide.com )

2. If you have to giveaway someone else’ product to
build a list, you stick with ones that DOES NOT dilute
your brand (such as Think and Grow Rich)

3. Once you begin marketing to your list, you can then
use MRR to set yourself apart from other marketers.

4. Be generous and people will stay on your list.

5. You rise above the noise.

++++++++++++++++

That’s it for today….
