The best of all worlds is to have a product you can give away

free and still make money. That world exists. The product need

not be expensive or elaborate. It can be something simple - a

sticker with a happy face, a pen with a logo, or some other

intriguing item.

product away, charging the recipients only a nominal fee for

postage and handling. If you price your shipping fees correctly,

you can make thousands of dollars a month.

So how do you let people know about the gifts you have waiting

for them? The best way is by placing classified ads in national

magazines, an enormously successful method. Small classified

advertisements in such national publications as Popular Mechanix,

and The National Enquirer produce excellent returns on such

items, National publications such as these sell millions of

copies each week or month. Even a tiny return from this kind of

large readership means thousands of dollars in your pocket. One

advertiser noted his ads have generated returns of seven times

the cost of the classified ad. Other advertisers have done even

better.

in these national publications. Study every issue you can find..

created a money-generating format, and they're taking full

advantage of it.

contain a nugget of appeal that makes you want to send your money

immediately.

Now try drafting your own ads. write several versions that you

can try in different national publications. The ad should be

simple but hard-hitting. You want the reader to respond

immediately. Use the words that create an attractive picture of

your product for the reader.

high sales volumes at low prices, a proven technique in this

market. If you come up with an ad that grabs reader's interest,
