Several weeks ago I launched my web store ULTRANEAT selling watches and money clips. My target audience are domestic audiences in my home country, but since my dropshipper ships watches worldwide, I am also accepting international orders. After a few weeks of careful planning and execution, I created a system that goes on autopilot and drives FREE traffic to my web store everytime someone shares a link to it on Facebook.

How? Basically I use a referral system that rewards people who draw customers to my site to make a purchase. I have set this commission level at 5%. This means that for every watch sold, the referrer gets a 5% cut of the sale price. At the same time, the customer gets a 5% discount for entering a discount code that belongs to a referrer. This results in a triple WIN-WIN-WIN situation where

1. The referral gets a commission

2. The customer gets a discount

3. I get profits

To set this up in a nutshell:

1. Setup a Wordpress blog

2. Install a contact form plugin to capture orders (I’m using Contact Form 7).

3. Start promoting your site on Facebook (others will see your site and referral applications will pour in if your referral signup page is enticing enough)

Soon your referral ‘minions’ will get to work in hope of making sales commission, and you can concentrate on the profits. This is a model you might want to try out and I believe truly that the power of marketing is in social media and networking websites.

I can’t fully explain in detail how this works without you taking a look at my site. It is much better for you to visit my web store to better understand how this AMAZING system works on autopilot. More detailed and clearer information on how it works can be found on this page. Tell me how it works out for you!

Aha! I’ve gotten a couple of questions about how I created some of my watch designs for reselling.

FREE Custom Dials for ArtsNow Watches

Especially for the one on the left, I’ve gotten questions asking how I make it look like one of those Swiss Army watches. Simple. You go through a lot of trouble trying to find the correct font and then die tearing your hair out trying to align them properly in a clock dial arrangement. Or, you could just download a PDF I have created that includes this dial, in addition to 17 other free-to-use custom dials for your customised watches.

Download here.

This is the first of a series of custom dials I will be putting up for download. I plan to release a couple of custom dials and textures every now and then, but these will be restricted to email subscribers of this feed. Enter your email on the left to receive custom dials in PDF format delivered right to your email!
