I started about 2 months ago with CB, I got 2 sales back to back then another one a week later. Then everything stopped, this is quite discouraging but I just started promoting more then one thing. Hopfully things will start to pick up. I'm starting to promote more to get more traffic. I am in the hole with my PPC and web hosting. I have 60 bucks in my CB account and everything is on hold from their stupid requirements with the 5 CC's and such. I just need three more unique CC sales then I will get my first check, and dammit I want it by the end of the year. Have you had the same frustrations when you first started? traffic but no sales? Logging into CB everyday only to find a bunch of zeros? Or did everything run smooth for you? Posted a web page maby a few blogs, then got at least a sale a week?
Oh and yes, I've had hundreds and hundreds of hops without a single sale, so I can see what's your problem. There is only ONE tactic that will get you out of this loop. You need to find a technique with which you will be able to produce up to 500 hops per product and then you need to rotate products SYSTEMATICALLY. Send 500 hops each week to a new product.. With this it won't take you long (probably about a month) to find a product that will get sales from the traffic you'll be sending. After that all you need to do is to send more traffic to that product and to optimize your campaigns. In time you'll be able to do this process more often so you'll have more products that convert for you = multiple income streams. So yeah, we've all had to go through this, the important thing to keep in mind is TO NEVER GIVE UP. Trust me, there is a lot of money to be made with internet marketing, all you need to do is to be systematical and consistent. Make a plan that will allow you to reach your goals and EXECUTE it. Don't even listen to negative thoughts that come in your mind, instead just keep on working and have BLIND faith that you'll succeed in time. Honestly, it might take you anywhere from a few weeks to A FEW YEARS, just depending on the time and energy you're prepared to put into this. See, for example, if you work 1 hour per day and I work 10 hours per day, I'll get 10 years of experience in just one year and you'll need to work 10 years to get the same amount of experience I'll get in one single year. It really comes down just to the work you're prepared to put into. Right now, these 200 hops don't mean shit... It really is so low number I wouldn't entertain a single negative thought if I were you. Just keep on finding new ways of generating traffic, always test everything and ABOVE ALL be consistent and have a clear cut goal you want to achieve. Good luck
Thank you for your post, and I see what you mean by 200 hops dont mean shit. Maby I set my standards way too high when I got those 3 sales with very low hops. Maby I just expected the sales to come rolling in like that. I have a real low goal of one sale a week. That is a workable goal for me. I try to promote different things whenever I can. I work two jobs so my time is very short for promoting. I nornally work untill I cant type anymore. But most of my time is spend trying to figure out new ways of promoting instead of actually promoting them. Maby I should go post some more articles now before I go to work for 12 hours today.
This could be due to many reasons of why the sales are not coming in. 1. The vendors sales page is just not upto scratch. 2. Your keywords that you are targetting are too broad. 3. Your traffic is not targetted to the product that you are promoting. Please PM with with the product you are promoting and I will try and help or share here.
Yep, you only fail if you give up!! Just test till you find something that works then do it over and over again!
yes i agree I think those are the reasons that many are not getting sales, i mean some people fail to check out the SP's and see if they convert, instead they send traffic to it and then blame CB for the lack of sales!!
