Need advice on ebook

Discussion in 'ClickBank' started by l2azor, Jun 1, 2010.

  1. #1
    hello, i am an article writer by profession here on DP, i read about being a vendor on clickbank. i am interested to write a book and submit it to site for promotion. Is it a right decision? What scope can I expect if the niche is hot right now in the market. There is competition but less as compared to other niche... should i proceed? IS there more competition in affiliate marketing or for vendors?

    Thanks for your advice
    regards

    Not sure if anyone's going to answer your questions :)

    You need to find the answers yourself I'm afraid.

    A product could cost your anywhere between $5000 - $50.000 ...

    Imagine that a sales letter can go up to $15,000 alone.

    there will always be competition, the level of it all depends on the niche. if you share, people could give you more accurate advice, right now, its just ifs and buts which wont get you a lot of answers.

    Maybe you wrote that quick, but I can tell from your sample above that you are a foreign writer. You'll have a hard time creating unique content at 100+ pages let alone the site/sales letter/emails/support/etc.

    Here's what many do:

    PLR = $19
    SITE TEMPLATE = $xx
    CB submission = $xx
    RECRUIT = free or paid
    BANK = $0.00 << Because you're ill prepared as a marketer, author, vendor, manager, etc etc. - no fault of your own and you have to learn this through your own trial/error. Having semi-pro writing skills is unfortunately only a small % of the big picture. If you do the above and can convert with tweaking plr/templates, and prove profit - then it may be worth investing into a proper build/launch/long term campaign.

    Being a vendor has so many variables that you'd never be able to predict your success, hence why the CB inventory is so huge but only a tiny % actually bank or even understand how to convert. Throw some jam at the wall - see if it sticks, nobody here is going to really be able to tell your future - do some shit and see what happens.

    75% of new vendors fail to make money when their product is activated.

    Why? They launch new products without attracting affiliates or setting up anticipation for the product.

    It's called a 'pre-launch' and something many should learn about first...

    Just writing a book and slapping it up on clickbank won't get affiliates. But if you create a quality product, put it up on clickbank and start marketing it yourself you can slowly gather affiliates that way. As your book gets more popular then you could see some additional people come on to start promoting through clickbank, but not right from the start.
