Method 16: Enter into a Joint Venture Partnership

If you don’t already have a site and an email list of your own, a joint venture can be one of the best ways to make money quickly. When it comes to joint venture partnerships, there are three things to keep in mind:

1. Most good JV partners will reject you initially. If a person immediately
accepts your JV offer, there’s a good chance that she is not receiving
many offers. On the other hand, if she doesn’t respond initially or tells you
that she’ll need more time or a better offer, this probably (but doesn’t
always) mean that a lot of people are pursuing her as a JV partner.

Why is this important to understand? Because you will get rejected many
times initially when you first begin sending out offers. It is important to
understand that partnerships can often be a numbers game; and that you
shouldn’t be discouraged too easily.

2. Be courteous and make a generous offer. Often, the simple presence of a
JV partner will boost your sales and your profile as a marketer far beyond
what it will do for you in direct sales from that partner. For this reason, it is
always a good idea to approach JV partners with a generous offer; and to
be patient, kind, and courteous.

3. Stay focused in your presentation. If you’re looking for a JV partner who
can drive traffic to your site; and you are willing to offer a profit-sharing
arrangement in exchange, then say that upfront. Make sure they
understand exactly what it is that you need from them; and exactly what
they will get for participating.

If you do these three things—and if you remain persistent—you have a good
chance of finding at least a few JV partners who will be willing to work with you and promote your project.

Method 7: Become a Freelance Writer

Before we get into this one, it’s important to keep in mind that freelance writing is not for everyone. If, today, you don’t feel comfortable with your writing skills, then using them to make money is perhaps not the best way to go. Even if you work very hard, it is unlikely that you will be able to transform your skills significantly enough to make money with your writing in the short run. In the long run, however, this might be a viable strategy. On the other hand, if you feel comfortable with your writing, then freelancing is an excellent way to make money fast online. With that said, let’s take at your two major options when it comes to sources of freelance writing jobs.

These sites allow freelancers to post bids on tens of thousands of writing, translation, graphic design, programming, and administrative assistant proj

Method 6: Freelance as an Administrative Assistant

One easy way to raise some cash fast is to work as an administrative assistant. Usually, this means doing things like record-keeping, database entry, and other repetitive tasks; however, in other situations, it might mean something like submitting links to directories, managing an affiliate program, or something like that. Whatever the case may be, the only requirement is usually that you be good with computers and with the Microsoft Office suite of products. Other than that, you will probably be given a detailed set of instructions that explain exactly what you should be doing on a daily basis. When looking for administrative assistant jobs, a good place to look is www.elance.com . If you need immediate payment, you should look for one-time, small jobs. Put in a low bid; and offer to work around the clock until you complete it. If you do a good job, there’s a chance the client will release the funds to you within days, which you can then transfer to your PayPal account

Method 15: Use Twitter to Market Your Myspace Forum Product

If you used method #14, you now have an inexpensive, entry-level product, a sales page, and a check-out system. All you need to do now is direct additional traffic to it. While posting on Myspace Forums was a good way to start, there are still a lot of options available for traffic generation. One such option is Twitter. If you’re unfamiliar with Twitter, it’s a social networking service that allows you to add and remove friend as you would on Myspace or Facebook. The difference is that the main purpose of Twitter is to send out 140-character “tweets” to your friends; and, in return, to read what they are tweeting about. Of course, this network can also be used to make money. To do this, you’ll need to start by creating an account if you do not already have one. After that, you will want to begin adding people who might be good targets for your sales campaign. You can do this by searching to see who is tweeting about topics related to your product. You can then
