Affiliate Music Theory Course Information
All Music Products!

Dear Internet Entrepreneur:

Welcome to Our Affiliate Program! Here you will find EVERYTHING you need to maximize your profits and make money selling this course. Here you'll find Banner Ads, Articles, Autoresponders, Keywords, Ad texts, and more!

But before we get started, let me give a brief breakdown of the product you will be promoting:

At last, a pure music theory course that actually teaches the fundamentals and music principles in a quick and easy format. From no knowledge through notes, rhythm, key signatures, scales, chords, and progressions.

All those other courses are for those that are looking for a quick way to learn enough to say they can play. This course sets the standard for truly becoming a great player by mastering the fundamentals of music theory.

This course is for every beginner to intermediate musician. And for some of the more advanced as well.

This course can be used as a supplement for music teachers as well.

This course and workshops complete the music principles and theory education that many musicians started but never completed; so many were never taught to the extent that they should have completed.

There are two options for the full course, first is a fixed term 12 month 24 lesson course billed monthly. The second is a one time purchase. The students get over 800 pages of instruction, know-how, and worksheets to accomplish the goal in less than one year for what usually takes 3 to 5 years!

Each of the subject areas also has it's own workshop and they are also sold individually. The sales pages are set up to allow the prospective customer to choose one workshop or add on combine or take on the whole course.

ARTICLES

Writing articles is a cheap and easy way of promoting this product. Actually, it's more than just "cheap"... it's totally free.

This doesn't cost you a dime... and can rank very well in the search engines.

But, you should know it is NOT as effective as using Pay Per Click. (We recommend you do BOTH!)

Here are the major "article submission" web sites you can use:

GoArticles.com

EzineArticles.com

Squidoo.com

There are a TON more out there. Click here for a list via Google.

I've written some quick articles for you.

But please note: These are fairly short and you WILL want to expand on them a little bit.

Also, I would recommend you rewrite them (even if you do it one sentence at a time) so they won't show up as "duplicate content" by Google and Yahoo.

Here they are:
