Clicking on the last one takes you to the page below (this is just the key part of a much longer page):




 

 

 

That's Only $3.13 Per Article!

LIMITED QUANTITIES AVAILABLE -- ACT NOW!!

URGENT! Only 25  Article Packs Will Be Sold, and Only TheFirst 10 Webmasters Will Receive The Above Bonuses!!!

That's right . . .

In order to keep the internet from being saturated with these articles, and to keep the content as unique as possible, only 25 lucky webmasters will grab these article packs, and only 10 will receive the bonuses above. This will also lower the risk of duplicate content penalties.

If you put this off until tomorrow, then the website may not be here. . .

If you want the bonuses, and you come back tomorrow and don't see them, it's because they're gone. . .

THIS IS A TIME SENSITIVE OFFER THAT CAN ONLY BE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF IF YOU ACT NOW!

By now, you've seen the quality . . .


The sales pitch goes on... He does a pretty good job of making his point and selling the benefits.

But look at what is happening here. Basically, he's selling 25 packets of 15 articles each, for $47 a packet.

That's 25 x $47 = $1,175!

Which translates into $1,175/15 = $78.33 per article!

And he promotes by participating in forums where Information Marketers, people who need this kind of product, hang out!  Everytime he makes a post, his offer is in his signature on that post...

The free sample he gives away will demonstrate the quality of his articles and his competence as a writer.

And every sale he makes gives him the name and e-mail address of a buyer, potential repeat customer/client for his mailing list!  He can/will continue to make future sales to this client list!

Pretty Neat, Huh?!   ;-)
