Hi! Im like a week old in this business and I would like to ask something. After all is done we offer affilities 75% commision and its like 8-9$ per sale for us. here is my question.. do these e-books sells thousands or just a few copies.. thats all I want to know for example.. I created a product about relationships&romance.. now its not that charming to buy it,still working on it.. if I create this one really cool,how many sales I can do max? Im really curious about this questions pals Thanks! Rick Cassidy
hi Rick. Fyi, some vendors weightloss4idiots claim to have sold $21 million worth last year (correct me if im wrong). That's as good as it gets for now... but i aim to come out with a product to beat that! good luck and keep the faith!
If your business plan is a) create product; b) list it on clickbank; c) sit back and relax, then I can almost guarantee you that you will sell exactly zero copies (no, not even 2). On the other hand, if you actually work on recruiting (your initial) affiliates, making it easy for them to promote your product and taking care of them until your gravity is high enough for other affiliates to start finding you, you can easily sell thousands of copies per month. One suggestion, though - PLEASE choose a different niche. There's about 50x more products in the relationships niche than there are buyers for this product and it's simply useless to try and compete with them - yeah, even if your product is top notch! On the other hand, there's LOTS of fantastic niches out there that are pretty much uncovered and waiting for someone to go and pick up the cash. Good luck!
I agree with Bryanon ,you really need to work as the product moves from creation to final selling. If your content is good and you work with your affiliates to push the product you might sell more copies then you actually thought about.
Simply make your marketing effort go viral. write small summary or a sneak peek about your product and make an ebook distribute for free and give others the right to give it away for free. Ask people to refer sales in return offer them extra bonus which they really love to have note this is a bonus other than 75 % of the commission from the click bank. Join Venture with other seller will increase you sales. Email swaps : exchange mails with other list owners to send your offer and let them mail to your list that is if you have one. Submit your ad to related websites. Give away a premium squeeze page templates with a small header about your product for free with PLR rights. Write articles in bulk and post on related sites.
now I had a chance to read replies.. and thank you for all.. to be honest I need a little help about "working with affilities and finding affilities" topic.. first of all I should be sure my product is worthy and after that I will create a very proffessional website. and after that I will go on searching affilities right? Now I need to improve my website.. its really not that charming right now.. thank you again!
Youre in the right place, just crawl back through a few pages on this forum and look for other vendors who have launched products - see the ones who get respect and the ones that get told their sites are not that great... also just look around the market place on clickbank - look at your rivals - the leading products in your niche, and look at them in a few different ways - look at their actual product and what they offer, look at their sales page and how it is written, look at their graphics, and also look at their affiliate sections and see what they offer affiliates - also do this type of analysis with some of the top clickbank products and see what they offer and soon you will have a much better idea of where you stand and what you need to do. Oh, and product creation is just the start, if you are serious it can be a full time job recruiting affiliates, working with them, developing materials for them etc Dan
You may only get $8-9 per sale of affiliate sales, but frankly, if you have a hundred affiliates doing $8 each, then do the math. Don't worry about how much you think you are going to be getting. That is simply the wrong approach. You need to be thinking of how you can market better.
Yep, the sky is the limit - it depends on the niche and the need for the product. If you find a good niche and you start getting some affiliates you will not mind you are only getting $7 - $8 believe me!
There is nothing easy about this. Nothing will sell by itself. You need to work hard, no affiliate will just come and promote your product. There is a great chance you will make very little on nothing with your product. You need to be way better and work way harder than thousands of other vendors out there.
Definitely Jason! What Im doing is now learning how to use photoshop and prepare a better e-cover.. and also better design for my website.. if you guys want to share more information with me about what tools should I use for designing my website,I will be appreciated.. thank you all!
you will be way better off going to freelancer.com or to design forum here and hire someone for $100. You should focus on marketing, while you need to hire others to do desing and other stuff.
