Im planning on advertising forex in local publications like pennysaver has anyone had any success with this? Is this a good niche to advertise? What kind of return should I expect?
I heard a while back that some guy made some money by posting paper ads on telegraph poles and the like. There was a 20-30 word ad and url his presell website that was easy to remember and had the town name something like springfieldworkfromhome . com
I've done a HELL of a lot of offline advertising with clickbank and I'll tell you it's totally worth the effort if you can nail it right. And I wouldn't advise you try this without a group of 3-5 otherwise you'll have so much work you'd rather write articles from home instead. Plus it's a lot more fun working for profits as a group. I'm talking from purely an Indian perspective-I assume you're from the west where people are a lot more open to visiting urls from papers and actually buying things from them. I've advertised forex here with pamphlets outside an investment class I scouted (sneaky, but surprisingly good) and it's real cheap here, you can organize an entire campaign with less than 5$, it generated a sale but got refunded like 5 hours later so there's that... Newspapers/magazines I've never tried but most people tend to read them away from computers like on a train or while waiting somewhere so getting them to remember the url and actually go home and type it out is going to take a very unique ad copy to get their attention, but worth a try if it's cheap, and do post the results when you get them . The best results I had was with the quit smoking niche-total expenditure of less than 10$ and I made like 12 sales and 360$ after I had a notice put up and fliers distributed around social clubs where I noticed people smoke a lot but somehow try cutting back All in all, I would suggest you choose the product to fit the environment, and not try to slot a high paying product into the wrong crowd and waste your time and energy. Try visiting local hangouts, see which places get a lot of foot traffic with a slightly older crowd-old enough to have credit cards ie. I did this in a cybercafe, a bit of chatting with the owner and he agreed to let me put my notice up with my url for an mmo site, a total of 3 sales from there too. The best results I've seen both for myself and others have been from noticeboards with a very short url, something short enough to stick in the head easily and preferably with a 4 somewhere...that seems to work amazingly well as a mnemonic. In the end, it's important to do what you feel good doing, if you find it way too strenuous, leave it and focus on content instead. It may or may not work out, but that shouldn't discourage you from trying harder-you make mistakes for a reason. And heck, it'll make one hell of a story for the grandkids
No probs man, just trying to butter up some affs for my launch And if it was such a great read, where's my rep <_<
Oh my god, every time I read about offline advertising for Clickbank products I always want to do something, but never actually do it Naaah, I have to take action on this.....
ive printed up flyers for weight loss products and put them in sneaky places like libraries and book stores and on the tram! hahah. works very well!
I've been meaning to try promoting Fatloss4Idiots as an alternative to Acai. Print up a few leaflets denouncing Acai berries as a waste of time and a scam, then link to a FL4I review on a good short URL. Explain the whole idea (trial bottle, seems like a good idea, massive monthly recurring billing, horror stories, etc..) in the leaflet and on the website, then push them to the "real" solution - FL4I. Considering how big Acai is, it should be fairly successful. Would also work for Green tea, Wu-Yi tea (or whatever it is), Hoodia etc.. If anyone tries this out and makes a packet, I want 10%
