How to Promote GDI

A lot of people have been asking me recently "How do I promote GDI", in particular since GDI was added to the Plug-In Profit Site very recently.

In this post I will try to answer this question and give a few ideas for promoting GDI. These will include both free and paid methods of promotion.

Here are 10 different ways to promote GDI (Global Domains International).

1) Use the Plug-In Profit Site to promote GDI - if you have a Plug-In Profit site you can just continue to promote your site and the Plug-In Profit Site (PIPS) opportunity in the normal way. When someone signs up for PIPS they will also signup under you for GDI. (Cost - $24.95 per month for a Plug-In Profit Site).

2) Write a review of GDI - if you have a blog or a website, why not write a review of GDI? Give your own personal opinion of the opportunity, what the commission are, what benefits you get and what the positives and negatives are. Many people search for reviews of business opportunities before they sign up, so by writing a review you have a very good chance of getting someone who is in the buying mood! Start a blog for free at Blogger.com if you don't already have one. (FREE).

3) Use GDI's DVDs - this is GDI's own recommended way of marketing the opportunity. They have various strategies for this including handing out DVDs to people on a daily basis (face to face marketing), mailing DVDs to people, using GDI's leads packages & DVDs. There is a comprehensive PDF guide to this marketing method you can download it here. (COST - $2.95 per DVD + approx $3 shipping for US citizens)

4) Use Article Marketing - you could write a short article either about GDI itself or a general article about work from home/ home business opportunities. Add an author resource box to the end of the article and include a link to your GDI signup page. Post this article to online article directories. Make sure your article is informative and not an advertisement (FREE)

5) Join the Home Income Team - The Home Income Team (HIT) is free to join and they provide a downline builder (including GDI), lots of great splash pages to market in the traffic exchanges, free training and a free website builder. Join HIT, add your ID to the downline builder and start following their training (FREE).

6) Forum Marketing - hang out in home business or work from home related forums that allow you to have a signature after your posts. Don't spam the forum - just ask and answer questions, be helpful and friendly. Add the GDI opportunity to your signature and once you have established a reputation people may decide to join GDI through you. (FREE)

7) Classifeds - you can post classified ads online and offline and there are hundreds of thousands of places on and off the internet to do this in. Anything from shop window ads & newspaper ads, to online classified websites. Search on Google for places to post classified ads and you will be spoilt for choice. (FREE & PAID options).

8) Traffic Exchanges - there are hundreds of traffic exchanges where you can surf to earn credits and promote your own opportunities with these credits. If you are going to use this strategy I recommend you join the Home Income Team as described in 5) above as they have lots of good splash pages. (FREE)

9) Email Signature - how many emails do you send out per day? Why not add a signature to all your personal emails promoting the GDI opportunity? Most email programs allow you to add a signature automatically. (FREE)

10) Business Cards - order business cards from GDI and carry them around with you. You can give them out to people you meet, leave them on noticeboards and put them in mail that you send. (COST - from $27 for 250 business cards).

I hope this gave you a few ideas and if you have any other ways of promoting GDI that have been successful for you please feel free to leave a comment below!
