Promoting a script selling business

Discussion in 'General Marketing' started by le_punk, Feb 15, 2011.

    I own a website where I'm selling a truly unique php script. I have decent amount of sales already but looking to extend my customer base.

    So far i've tried:
    - posting to forums scripts for sale section
    - adwords (got some conversions but nothing outstanding)
    - advertising on related niche sites
    - have a featured post on HotScripts

    any ideas?

    You can look to buy ad space on related websites or on someone's email list.
    You can also look to get affiliates to help promote your product.

    Also can i take alook at the website?

    nice site! Wish I had some advice but I do have a friend who is starting a business that could find a script like this really helpful- I'm going to show it to them.

    You could try buying some advertising on forums

    Not just the obvious ones for scripting, web development, etc. but other forums where the people who would be interested in your script hang out, anywhere that you can get the right eyes on your ads

    Maybe affiliate marketing forums, cpa marketing forums, even picture sites or gaming sites given that your customers are probably males in their late teens and early 20's, just think about where they would likely hang out online

    And definitely start an affiliate program, don't be afraid to give out big commissions and make your money on the backend

    Offer coupons for you site to increase sales.
    The idea that a coupon ( if you have some success ) will self generate your marketing.

    hm maybe you could do some link exchange with other forums, but the best way is getting lots of affiliates to promote your stuff.

    Maybe you just need a good domain, something like:

    http://www.seoscripts.com

    Although, I am not sure what type of php script you are selling, this
    domain sorta implies that you sell seo scripts, and more then one.

    You have a lawsuit waiting to happen.

    What agreements do you have with the big tv networks to offer a script that streams TV?

    If you do not, then what you are doing is illegal.

    This is no different if you were streaming music without permission from the music industry.

    try fisrt to support your current client and answer new one quetion then your client wil give good reviews and can tell the other that they will not regret it if they buy..
    now all your constumers areangry about your support and that you are never herefor them
    i m intersted in buying this script but you never answer my quetions and all teh others say if i pay i will not get the script cause its not atomated send and that you have to send it manualy buy email but you never do cause you are not interstenig in that
    so give more time to your clients first and then you will get hug more clients support its veryi important in my eyes
