When you give products away for nothing, you should really give it away as widely as possible.
Despite only distributing away from your blog, you can also permit your visitors to do the same thing from their blog as well.
It can even better, you can give permissions to everyone who have interest to distribute your products. But remember you still hold your rights to your product, all you give away is the reprint rights.
Depends on your products form, but in term of an ebook, this could be highly profitable methods to recycle unsold products. It will make it easy for everyone to take your material, absorb the value and do the same to their communities with your name attached as the creator.

when give away a free products, you need to guarantee that the sample is at the same “feature” as the freebies. Here are some instances ; when you are offering an ebooks, a teasing full chapter is a good sample, when you are promoting a milk, allow costumers to have a glass of it for free, or more. It could be in many ways you can do it. But the best ways to perform this method should be a free trial in a certain time of use.
