What is bum marketing and how do you make money using it? This seems to be an age old question that gets tossed around in Internet marketing forums almost on the daily as it seems but the truth to the matter is it's just a coined phrase that an Internet marketer used for his new product.
But Bum marketing is nothing more then article marketing.
The way you make money is by selecting affiliate products to promote and writing articles related to that product and submitting them to various ad sites and article marketing directories.
The kicker is to use your resource box as a tool and include a link to your affiliate product this way once people read your article and they want more information they can get it by clicking your resource box link.
The key with bum marketing is to be writing articles on the daily.
It's not a one time thing but a daily thing.
You may write articles that never bring in any sales for a month and then all of a sudden you will see a burst in traffic and those same very few articles begin to make money selling affiliate products.
The next kicker is start sending some traffic to an opt in page where you give something out for free in exchange for a name and email and a long lasting friendship.
Once you have done this you can build relations with these people by offering them helpful useful advice and down the road you can also offer them products and services via follow up messages.
This is how you can begin to cycle them into a automated money stream.
