Jv giveaway’s work by you as contributor uploading a free gift for non contributor’s i.e. the general public who are looking for info marketing products, they then get to access a market place full of hundreds of contributors products and they can then optin for your products.  This works two ways you get a free subscriber and build your optin list and the JV giveaway creators also get to build their lists and often they have front end offers build into the script so they make money from sheer traffic of members signing up.  You also can upgrade your status as a premium or elite contributor and they basically ensure your products are at the front of the picking order this getting more traffic and subscribers.

You will have to promote and get members to come to the giveaway event otherwise your ranking slides down and your product gets less exposure.  But to be honest It’s a great way to get a minimum of 50-100 subscribers for free, in fact you can probably get 200 if your good and that’s not bad for a few days work! Here is a typical high quality jv giveaway that running for the next 10 days, you need a free gift to start your sales funnel of to capitalize
