    Hey guys, happy new year! hope you're all doing well :)
    i've had some clickbank products in the past mainly guitar niche.
    it seems to be so much work to make your own product, graphic,
    salespage, marketing etc...

    I know i can outsource stuff, but money is tight.

    do you guys know any programs or software that helps launch
    a new Clickbank product? also, any other ideas or inspiration??

    Yes it is worth it if you have a good product and are prepared to work hard to improve your sales page and recruit affiliates. You have a chance of making a LOT of cash if you get it right! Its surprising what you can get outsourced on sites like Fiverr if you are on a tight budget. It is good to learn to do things for yourself, even if down the line you decide to outsource. That way you will better know what it is you want when you are directing specialists.

    Yes, it is hard work, however if you want to make money in business it is going to be tough. You just need to get through it!

    I understand that money is tight, so only outsource the real necessities. So really only the web design. You can find very cheap minisite designers on Google (some for as low as $37 for an entire site!). If your English skills are good, you could consider writing your own web copy and creating your own eBook, which would save on costs.

    Word of advice: look after your affiliates; they will do of the marketing for you, so provide them with the best affiliate resources and you won't need to worry so much about marketing.

    I say all of this from experience; when I created my first website I only had $200 and everything else I had to do myself!

    Good luck, and if you need to know anything else, just ask me! :)

    For sure, but make sure you know for a fact that the products sell. You don't want to invest in something that hasn't sold in the past.

    Agreed, maybe send out some review copies for people who know IM. You can't sell some washed up method and expect to bank huge unless you got one hell of a sales letter.

    If you are creating an information product I would suggest that you make sure that you are actually providing a useful, unique solution to a real problem. With a market that is both willing and able to purchase your product.

    I would then create the best possible sales page that you can, test and test again until you have maxed out your conversion rates.

    If your product is actually good and your sales pages converts well you won't have trouble attracting either affiliates or buyers.

    Its definately worth it but like poeple have said above you have to create a product that is both worthwhile and people are willing to buy. You also need to make sure you test the offer first to make sure it converts before releasing it on clickbank IMO.
