I have been trying out a new lead generation service since July 1 called RevResponse. The program pays you to give away free magazines, podcasts, webinars, white papers etc. I hadn't planned on discussing this until the end of the month as I wanted to see how well the system worked first but the other day I came across a post on the RevResponse blog that changed my mind. In order to publicize this program the company behind it has decided to offer all its partners a $50 bonus just for mentioning the program on their blogs or websites. This type of publicity is nothing new and I usually ignore these type of paid reviews or worse I scuttle the programs that attempt to bribe me if I feel the program is crap. 

In this case I have decided to fill you in on RevResponse since it has actually produced some income for me in spite of the fact I have done little to promote it and I haven't added it to the kind of sites that it will probably prosper on - namely tech and trade blogs. I have quietly stuck it in my sidebar and left it alone in order to see how well it draws in my search traffic. I assume my readers are blind to the sidebar and probably haven't seen it.



I bring this up now, not to get you to sign up for some free subscriptions although please do if anything interests you, but to alert you to the fact that you can make $50 by promoting this on your own sites. Here is a blurb from the RevResponse blog explaining what is required;

As you can see there are referral commissions involved as well and yes I stand to make a buck off of any of you who signup using my link which is this one RevResponse but not to fear - those of you who are ornery buggers can use this link and know that my children will live a life of poverty - Revresponse.

I plan on tracking both links for clicks just for the fun of it - I really want to know how many people prefer to see my kids starve as opposed to those with altruistic tendencies. Lol.

In any event I mentioned that the program actually appears to work albeit you probably won't get rich. I haven't put the links above the fold as I like to see how well a program works in spite of poor location and lack of publicity. If it can generate revenue under these conditions then it stands a good chance of doing well given a better placement and, as mentioned, a more targeted audience of users.

Here are the results for July so far;



As you can see the majority of people get rejected when filling out the required info necessary to get the free subscriptions. This is, in my opinion a good sign that the system is reputable and bodes well for the quality of the products. This is the type of product I like when it comes to leads. It's passive and so far it is producing a trickle down income with no work required on my part. While $26 isn't great it still adds up to an extra $500 - $600 per year which can be increased with a little marketing and proper site set up.

I have mentioned Project Payday numerous times in the past as another good lead generation product that has performed well for me and it too sits in a poor location (bottom of the page). The difference is that I have created some pre-sell posts to hype it and must admit that it has been a nice little earner for what little work I have put into it. Nearly $4000 since October. Not bad for passive income.



For those of you who are having problems monetizing your sites you really should look into the various types of lead generation programs available. In most cases you can plop these links on your blogs without using up your prime real estate and generate a bit of income from space that would otherwise be empty.

Go get your $50 - the promotion with RevResponse only lasts until the end of July so don't put this off if you are interested.
