    Hey Guys,

    I was informed that there are some serious internet marketing gurus here on this forum, so I would like to offer you something :)
    The TrendStuffer FOREX Trading System is publicly available since January 2007 (you can check the domain, Google it, etc.) and we sold 1100+ copies without any real marketing (no PPC, no affiliates, only by word of mouth). This product sells itself because this system really works and uniquely we do have hard proof of this more than serious statement. Have a look at the attached real account statements forward tested (real-market traded!) :D results! No backtest BS, nobody believes that nowadays. :cool:

    One testimonial from here:
    Christian, Austin, TX, Rating: 5 stars. Date of Post: 2007-11-18
    "I've been using TrendStuffer for about three months, and I've seen steady profit. There are losses, but the wins outweighs them by far. You have to trust the system and try to leave it alone and it will make you some money. I just received v3 of the system which I go live with today. This is not a "get rich now" kind of thing, and not a scam. It's a well thought out trend based system which simply works if you follow the instructions and let it "do it's thing"."

    You can find a lot more statements

    Everything looks great, but I have one question - why do you give only 40%? I know it's over $43/sale, but come on. If you want affiliates, you should give more than that...

    Um, you caught a few of us affiliates who are starting a 10K challenge for Forex Affiliate Sales. Get some awesome creatives and such, and no doubt we will promote your product if it is sellable.

    1. I think it's too expensive
    2. Agree with nadavs. Don't be greedy, 40% that's funny...
    3. Also you should change the description of the product on the Order page, because I don't think that customers buying the product will be happy to see that someones gets $47/sale...

    1. Yes you're right and I know it's above the "standard" $97-99 price but we had customers in the past 1.5 year for a LOT higher price than this and I believe it really does worth the extra few bucks. We have a brand with high reputation if I can say, and that's a huge pro I think.
    2. Okay, I will discuss it ASAP. [​IMG]
    3. Um, thanks for that I've changed it already! [​IMG]

    It looks ok... but I think you need to check how it looks in firefox browser

    http://www.trendstuffer.com/clickbank/tsclickbank.html (at the bottom with the testimonials seems to have some css issues or something where it is overlapping).

    Regarding the % for affiliates, 40% is good for some people but not enough incentive for the super affiliates when there is no upsell or recurring commission (I am not saying I am a super affiliate, just stating that it is enough to tempt some affiliates, but not the main ones) :p

    As theforexguy stated, there is a 10k challenge coming up for clickbank products and that should help you get some affiliates picked up and maybe get a few sales. Personally, the 10k challenge is something I am using to try and get motivated enough to stay focussed and learn along the way :p

    edit: Just curious how it works if someone arrived at the site from an affiliate and then bought it from the main checkout area - not through clickbank. How would affiliate sales be tracked? (where is offers paypal and moneybookers as payment options).

    I too don't think that the 40% commission around here is going to get a lot of takers.

    I have also just started a forex site because there are high commissions availalble but if you have a look at NCMedia's products here on DP they offer even better commissions and the sales pages are fantastic.

    Okay guys, I read about your Forex Challenge, and to be honest I don't want to miss out on the greatest marketers found here whom I've heard so much about in recent days. So I decided and convinced my partners to RAISE COMMISSION TO 70% and a whopping $80 per sale!! I don't think this offer has much of a competition... ;)
    Good luck for all, we're counting on you!

    (PS: I don't know how soon ClickBank updates but I've already set the 70% commission on my ClickBank product page!!)

    Now from a further inspection of the site, I do happen to see room for improvement.

    1. Do not advertise that you are paying for each sale $47 on the home page.
    2. For some reason, the homepage layout seems a bit disorganized and way too busy. I am surprised that you already have sales.
    3. do not put the sales page on a subfolder. Try to put the sales page as a homepage on either this domain or create a similar domain. The current Scenario will confuse buyers, and your homepage confuses me at best
    4. The affiliates section is lacking. Some of the publishers that I work with and promote, have creative pages that are highly productive with high end graphics, articles, PPC keywords for those who do PPC marketing. All you really have is two forward tests and three graphics to push product.

    It seems that you are using your affiliate page for 90% hype and maybe 10% helping build scores of affiliate to sell your products. If you cannot cater to affiliates, and farm and cultivate them, then you will not have any affiliates period!

    5. for $119, you are only compensating 40%? Seriously, give me a break! there are more products out there that affiliates would be willing to push that have higher commission payments.

    And your defense would be, that ok, I could probably sell it myself if that is the case. Realize that at least 75% of Forex sales are REFERRED sales. so I would go through my advice and do these changes, and hopefully you will get more happy affiliates and make more money!

    I wouldn't of told you this if I didn't give a crap! Let's all make some money here! I have a TON of hungry affiliates on this board who want to sell forex products!!!

    TRADE ON!!!

    I have a hard time selling this stuff as I don't know anything about Forex (slight problem?) but for $80 maybe I'll look into it a bit ;)

    I have already changed the topic title but it didn't update even with the last 'stats update' in the Views of the topic, etc. Can I ask a moderator or someone to change the title to the new one please? It's pretty confusing now :( Thank you!

    I'll try to do some promotions for this in the next couple of days. I just started building a Forex list recently.

    Still not updated on ClickBank... This whole ClickBank site could have an awful lot of improvements imo. And the customer service also. 48 hours replying an email and they only accept emails? Funny..
    Prepare guys, because from about 0:00 GMT tonight CB will surely update (based on the 24h counting..) ;)

    After using the best program that comes with windows (calculator), I came to realize that your program pays $76 per conversion. Now that is something I can build a campaign on, but you'll have to wait until I return from Germany.

    Maybe it's the best program, that comes with Windows, but you need to learn how to use it properly :D

    $119 - Price of the product
    70% - The commission

    We need to find out what is 70% out of 119, right?

    119 = 100%
    ? = 70%

    Use cross-multiply method

    (119*70)/100 = 83.3 = 80$ (round up)

    70% out of 119 is roughly 80$

    Simple!

    Believe me, I can use it properly:
    $119 * 92.5% = 110.075 (ClickBank takes 7.5%, remember? ;))
    $110.075 - $1 = $109.075
    $109.075 * 70% = $76.3525
    Rounded to $76.35

    By the way, from 83.3 to 80 it's rounding down. ;)
