Around a month ago I started to promote with paid traffic (media buying) a new product. I was doing great and always had around 250% ROI. But since 22 of the month I didn't have even one sale from it (other products from article marketing doing as usual but it's definetely not enough (I want to rent a penthouse on summer ) The product is in health market, not something with very desperate crwod like weightlose or some illness but it's still sold very well. I'm pretty worried, I know all the thing with slow sales on holydays but I sent around 600 hopes from then and just nothing...
When doing internet marketing, you should be ready for fluctuations in sales. Sometimes a product will just stop converting no matter what you do. I have seen so many different sales pattens - some you can explain and some you can't. Guess that is why many people say clickbank is a scam because you just cant seem to explain what is happening sometimes. I would advise that you give it some time and test the product more.
well, after more then 30 sales and 2000 clicks I can say for sure it converted. The sales page didn't change a bit and so the price...
ABSOLUTELY the holidays make digital sales go down.. Look at the main page of http://www.cb-analytics.com/.. See the Entire Clickbank Gravity Graph.. It totally tanked from Mid December till Now.. Don't worry tho, it should rebound real soon
Depends on what niche you are in, gaming and entertainment products usually sell pretty well at this time of the year!!
I made some sales on christmas and christmas eve that I did not expect on my cityville guide! Just depends the niche.
viralguy, why are you trying every desperate attempt to promote your product in every thread that you comment on? pathetic.
People are probably broke after buying presents for all of their friends/family. Sales should pick up after the holiday season is over!
Everything is seasonal, probably if you're having a dip now you will see it pick back up in the new year when people go back to work / school / back to normal... Other niches / industries have their busy period over the holidays - i.e. traditional retailers - including me, my sales are up, I make approx double in between the end of December and the middle of January than I would any other month of the year... learn your trade in terms of traffic generation, but also learn seasonal trends and when to promote different types of products / different niches.
Hmmm. My sales are normal in the past 10 days. But clickbank sales are always unpredictable. Just be prepared to for it.
Always be ready for your sales to change. See if you start to get some more with the new year coming in, people often buy a lot for new years resolutions and things like that. If it still doesn't work, figure out what is going on and fix it. It could be the source it is coming from or it could be the page you are sending it to. Test and tweak until you get it just right.
I've always found that the holidays hurt sales, no matter what industry I've been in. I've heard that around New Year's is usually great for CB products, though, since people make new year's resolutions to lose weight, make more money, etc. Hopefully yours will turn around soon!
It largely depends on the niche. Desperate people will be always buying ... it really doesn't matter if it's Christmas, The New Year or Easter.. they'll just pull their credit cards out if you have a convincing landing page/sales pitch.
