Here’s some of the hottest uses for video and multimedia in audio-visual communication.

Online affiliate products: Affiliate marketing is very, very hot these days. And here’s why: selling other people’s products you don’t need a web site, no inventory, no shipping, no search engine optimization … you can simply direct link from Yahoo and MSN (and Google if they like the landing page) with a few pennies and reap rewards like you never dreamed.

Reportedly there were guys who were making a million dollars a week on Facebook with CPA offers plugged into their Facebook applications. Now, that’s a bit more sophisticated and not for everybody, but there are guys who are making $20,000-$50,000 a month with ClickBank, Amazon, and other affiliate products. Nothing wrong with that…

Make Once Sell Thousands (M.O.S.T.) products where you turn your expertise to cash. Last year, Fatloss4idiots sold $21 million through ClickBank affiliates, and there are literally 1000′s of open niches where you can create a video + booklet product and sell to the 1.6 billion people out there. What can you turn into a DVD + booklet information product?

IMPORTANT: Once you have a physical product, you can sell it on eBay, too. eBay no longer allows downloadable info products. But no worries, a physical product you can sell a higher price than a bunch of PDFs and there are a lot of poeple who really want something they can hold in their hands and put into their DVD player or computer.

Better Converting Website videos: The long-sales-letter model of website is no longer the best way to reach your target audience. A much better tactic is a video with simple opt-in box on white background; known to convert 50%-60%. They are infinitely more effective than a 24-page long letter model of selling.
