Hi everyone,

I wanted to follow up with you to give you a status report on using Success from Home magazine to market my business.

As you know my company was featured in the October 2008 issue of Success from Home.  We’ve had copies available since mid August.  So we immediately started promoting them.  You can see previous discussions here and here.

One of the things I did was I created a simple lead capture page to promote free copies of Success from Home magazine.

So far I’ve had 13 requests for the magazine.

3 were requests from Mona Vie distributors that were confused.  They thought they could order any issue. One was from a prepaid rep that was confused.

9 legitimate requests have so far lead to 1 new customer and 1 distributor.

My cost for sending out those 9 copies was $72.  My commissions from the new customer and distributor have been so far $231.  This means I’m making a profit of $159 so far.

I have NOT promoted this other than mentioning it on my blog, in one forum, and putting it on my web site.  I think the next step is to promote it via PPC and see what happens. Also I am going to make this lead capture page available to everyone on my team for them to use in promoting the magazine as well.

Pretty cool, right? Have you guys come up with any new methods to market Success from Home magazine for your businesses?
