Now we come to the heart of your Infographic creation – sharing it. What makes it buzz-worthy? Let’s just take a peep at the main reasons people are triggered to share content. They find it…

Useful – Something we find incredibly helpful often gets shared. We humans are a generous lot; and can’t wait to reap kudos for helping out our peers.

Touching – Anything that triggers our emotions deeply is liable to be passed on and shared.

Funny – Anything capable of making someone laugh out loud, right from the gut, usually gets shared. People like to be entertained – and they like things that brighten their day.

Plus, humorous content is an “easy” share – one doesn’t (usually) have to worry about offending people; and humor crosses all niches

Shocking – Anything that’s almost too amazing to be believed is irresistible. “Did you hear about the two-headed whale? Look! Here’s an actual photo!” (We all like wowing our friends.

Arresting – Not quite the same as “shocking”, arresting subjects bring depth to human experience, make us question our beliefs, jolt us out of complacency or strike us deeply with profundity.

Voyeuristic – We share this for the same reason that people stop to rubberneck at traffic accidents. We revel in other peoples’ foolishness: (“Do you believe he was stupid enough to get caught?”)

Irreverent – It’s the “naughty kid” instinct in us that loves to poke fun at institutions, authority or “the norm”. This streak of irreverence makes people share ribald jokes or satirical digs. And sometimes it’s a way that “nice” people can vicariously vent about things they secretly want to bash.

Current – Whatever peoples’ minds and attentions are caught up with at the moment will definitely go viral. For example, Kristen Stewart’s very public affair with director Rupert Sanders: Not only is she relevant and current to millions of “Twilight” fans (with the final Twilight movie about to be released – let’s not underestimate the role of the media in deciding what’s current and relevant), but if you look up Kristen Stewart and betrayed beau, Robert Pattinson, in Google Trends, his popularity is twice as intense as hers: Hence all the sympathy for him.

One of the easiest ways to jack up sales and stand out from the crowd is to offer auxiliary components and bonus products to those who purchase through your JVZoo affiliate link.

Everyone loves freebies and so by offering bonus products that are valuable and exclusively available through your affiliate link you are instantly able to beef up the value of the entire offer - at no extra cost to your customer!

(Not only will this instantly increase conversion rates but people will absolutely love you! You can easily build a trusted brand just by over-delivering value with every product you promote.)

Think about it - if you were going to purchase a product anyway but someone offered you something extra, at no cost, just to purchase through their link - why wouldn't you do it?

It's not costing you anything yet you are able to get more bang out of your buck. Well that's exactly why bonus products have always worked so well for affiliates, and always will. It's our way of increasing the value of the products we promote even though we have absolutely no part of the creation process.

We just add extra goodies to the offer that we know will help the customer and we're good to go!

So, what kind of bonus offers should you offer to potential customers?

It all depends on the type of product you are promoting. For example if you were promoting a product that taught beginners how to get involved in social media, you might offer a bonus package that included a "Cheat Sheet of Top Social Media Sites", or a package of twitter backgrounds or Facebook marketing graphics. As long as your bonus is themed to what the main product is about and extends the value in some way, it's bound to be a hot seller.

The cool thing about JVZoo is that they also offer instant bonus fulfillment so that you never have to worry about making sure bonus products are delivered to customers!

Just fill in a simple form that includes the product title, bonus name, URL (or you can upload the bonus package to JVZoo's servers) and it's set to go! JVZoo will automatically deliver it with every successful sale. Talk about true automation and simplicity! Even total newbies can become heavy-hitters in the affiliate arena just by taking advantage of the many options available to them through JVZoo.

Hiring your writer is only the first step in getting your story ready for the marketplace. You still need to be involved in the creative process in order to ensure that your writer is able to take your concept and turn it into a dynamic, captivating story.

When you are just starting out, assembling your team of writers, getting used to the marketplaces and getting involved in self-publishing, it’s important that you take a hands-on approach. Even though you won’t be writing any of the stories yourself, it’s important that you understand the industry so that you can target the most profitable genres, develop stories around in-demand topics and ensure that every story published under your pen name are stories that you are proud to sell as your own.

So when it comes to the development of your first story, it’s important that you lay it all out on the line. It’s your job to create a story line, including plot and character outline so that your writer understands what you are looking for. Your story will also come out 100% better when you stay involved in the process, because while you aren’t writing it yourself, you are nurturing the story – helping to bring it to life and giving it a voice all your own.

Start off by creating a basic summary that includes the overall plot. If you are commissioning a writer to create a romance for example, you would want to give them an overview of the main characters as well as what obstacles they should encounter and how the story should end.
