i was looking at cb analytics today and saw a product that is now over 400 gravity. The product is called exit splash. www.exitsplash.com To my amazement, they are just selling the exit code like I installed on my beat eczema site. I didn't think of making it a product. Just goes to show with the right twist just about anything can be turned into a product. People have sporadically been using this code for sometime. Now someone has realized how to capitalize on that.
This is a product by Dave Guinden...I somehow got on his list and get frequent emails from him peddling his wares. He is (so his bio says) a software developer and marketer. It looks like made a simple interface to plug the info into the popup (ie. the message, price, re-directs, etc.). It's very simple and could probably be built by a high school kid for a programming class but he is pretty connected in the IM world and I think that is where his success for this product is coming from.
I don't think for this particular product high gravity would mean as much sales as other 400 grav products. It's just that everyone is buying it once through their own hoplink for their own use - hence the high gravity
Plus he's added a little twitter viral script box as a bonus. I think that this would actually be a bigger selling point than the actual product right now. I've actually seen several people tweeting this product w/ the twitter script as their main selling point.
You are right. Just anything can be a product especially at Clickbank. That is why you sometimes find some very crappy products there.
I'm shocked at what people would pay 65$ for, yes he does have a great sales page and all that, but how are these people buying this, I don't know
internet marketers have been churning out rehashed rubbish for years and getting rich off it - usually ebooks. This time a script. Pretty crazy and shows how wide open the market at Clickbank still is.
It's amazing to think that 400 internet marketers are so conditioned to buy whatever turns up in their inbox that they don't just search for it on Google first. They read the site and think it's magic, when really it's 5 lines of Javascript code that you can find all over the web. Still, I suppose it proves that convenience is worth $30 these days.
Because you can find the same thing for free anywhere, it's just a small code which he's hyping like it's god knows what and charging 65 bucks. I also don't understand how 400 marketers bought this
I still think they're buying it for the twitter box code he's offering as a bonus - not the actual pop-up script itself. I think that if he would have put the viral twitter box code as his main product, he'd be twice as high in the gravity ranking right now. edit - also, people outside of IM are not as familiar with that popup code. We're so familiar with it because practically every website on clickbank is using it.
