Making Money, By GIVING AWAY Freebies!
Giving away your stuff for free, Is risky. Usually, the end goal is to get more followers or more potential sales.
Many marketers/ authors etc. Give away freebies when they can.
I'm not getting the volume of sales I want
So I'm changing my tactics.
MORE FREEBIES!
With my somewhat "Niche" being in adult coloring books, Sometimes I have to get creative on giving free stuff to customers. Many people who write Kindle books give away blog posts and other written content. So I give away coloring pages. Coloring pages can take hours and hours to draw. Plus they are harder to be traced, People can steal them, Alter them and publish them under a new name, Of course this is illegal. But we see it happen. This adds to the risk of giving away free coloring pages.
I realized as I was using some of my favorite FREE stock photo websites. That these photographers can actually be "tipped" also spread their brand by sharing some great photos. This clicked in my head. If I give away free coloring pages, and stay within my designated niche, I may be able to get a reasonable amount of downloads and traffic to my page.
Drew this with my Cintiq
Some of the free stock photo sites I use..
- Pixabay
- Pexels
- Morguefile
- Unsplash.
The cons of me using this tactic:
- People are legally allowed to use my art for commercial use.
- They don't have to give me credit,
- They can alter the image as they please.
This makes it complicated, So I may not get credit. But someone who is consistently leeching off of me may throw me a few bucks. And some people concerned, May try to trace where the original came from, Which they'll find me.
Maybe I'm stupid, But this seems like a great opportunity to be seen out there.
It's good to experiment!
I will definitely report my findings on this back to Steemit! I'm curious to see how this works out.
I hope you too have a Great 2017!!! :D
Good luck with your coloring page giveaways!
Thank you :) I hope you have a wonderful 2017 as well Kenny!!!
Hi I hope I do not mind too much because I just saw
Your profile on and I see you being the right person for me and deserving this offer. My name is LOPEZ Endrea I am of French origin but I live in Italy for 20 years because of my husband who is of Italian origin. I suffer from an illness which will lead me to death and I have a sum of 60 000 euros which I would like to make a donation to a person of trust and honesty so that it makes good use of it. I am the owner of a car accessories import company. To give a 10% share to the orphan children of his region just for the blessing of the lord after my death. I lost my husband 7 years ago, we have no children what my heart really touched and I could not remarry to this day because I love my husband too. I would make this sum a gift before my death so that my days may be counted for want of this disease to which I can not have a remedy for my illness. I would like to know later if you really want to benefit from this gift. Here is my email address: [email protected]
