| Beat The Phenomenon Of Awful Sale Statistics |
|
|
It is a purely shocking statistic, that only 4 in
every 100 affiliates, actually turn over more than a few dollars. This
is an truly awful statistic, but one that can be easily changed. The
reasons as to why this phenomenon of awful sales occurs are numerous.
In this article, I will be dealing with resell rights e-book packages,
as the sales example item. However overall this article, can be
applied, to any sales product.
The number one reason why sellers fail online, is caused by a lack
of knowledge, as how to advertise their products. FFA's are a good
example of this. Visit any ffa page on the net and you will see people
struggling. Thousands of affiliates and other sellers use these methods
as their sales vehicle. It is certain you will fail if you use these
type of methods. The only people who will ever see these type of sites
will be other sellers. And it would have to be one brilliant product,
to be able to make a successful sale, to another seller via this
method.
The second main reason, are products which are sold with pre-built
sales pages. This whole process promotes a system, by which sellers
think they can promote and provide websites, built-up totally with
single web sales pages, and make easy money as a result. The resell
products, themselves, mostly are initially purchased by sellers,
because of a main sales pitch of 'You Will Make Easy Money'. The
product itself becomes second best. Potential income becomes the
sellers main driving point and this simply misses the mark totally.
This is a real online marketing trap. All this provides is a one page
sales pitch without the backing of any real substance. This substance
can only be given by the backing of a real website, with your resale
products built in, as part of it. And the products you sell should
always be a necessary part of the topics covered by your website.
Remember always, never sell items with standalone sales pages, without
a reference point. And this reference point should always initially be
found exactly, in the beating heart of the pre-sale, that can be found
on your own website. We will get to this point in more detail further
below shortly. |
As a further proof of another form of this lack of
substance. I have recently received feedback from other sellers who
have not even read the actual content of the product they are
reselling. This just does not make any business sense at all. I myself
sell a lot of resell rights e-book products. But they are only the
products I have researched and want my own name and my company name
attached to. I even recently had an affiliate send me a resell rights
e-book package he purchased which consisted of an amazing sales
package, it simply took my breath away. But the actually e-book product
it promoted consisted of 9 pages. If I was the customer who purchased
this package. I would be pretty overwhelmed, by the feeling of being
ripped off, if I paid $49.95 for a 9 page e-book. And needless to say,
the information that it contained, was useless to say the least. Any
customer who may purchase this product, it would be safe to say, would
be very cautious before they ever purchased a product online ever
again. And it would be certain to say they would never purchase a
product from that seller ever again either. Honesty is a word that
needs to be applied totally in online sales. Forget the potential
profit line for a moment. You need to be totally committed to the
product you are selling. And you need to be totally committed to the
principle of getting information of real value out there and into the
hands of others.
So how do you succeed online with real success. Firstly if you want
to make money online consistently you need, as stated earlier, a real
website. It just amazes me how many sellers just don't even have a real
website of there own. You need to show potential buyers what motivates
you in what you do. If you have a website system of single web sales
pages. You are never going to achieve any success online. Design a
website around what motivates and excites you. Build information that
you have written yourself, and quality information written by others,
that has real information value. Provide a website of substance that
aligns itself to great informational links. Always Align your website,
with other websites that have the same commitment, with exactly the
ideas you hold most valuable. Show a potential buyer or even just that
website visitor cruising the net. That you know exactly what you are
talking about, and promote your products around this knowledge.
Secondly learn exactly how to promote your website successfully.
Seek out the knowledge of others who are successful online and take in
all the information that they offer. The reason why in the previous
paragraph, I mentioned the need for a real website before this topic of
advertising, has other benefits as well. If you have a real website you
will get indexed well in the search engines. Getting indexed well, will
gain you quality targeted traffic, that costs nothing. So build a good
website, submit it to the engines, and simply let time take its course.
For example to get into google it is going to take about 7 months,
there is no way around this except just waiting. Just submit and focus
on adding real value content to your website. And focus on other
methods of advertising. The perfect method is to build an email list of
your own. There are thousands of real valid methods on how to achieve
this. The best being, by simply starting your own ezine, built around
exactly the same topics which your website covers.
I hope that this article may help to guide you too success. I
myself make a living off the internet. I make around 40,000 dollars per
year after tax. It is not a great deal of money. I must say that I made
more in my previous full-time job. But the internet has given me the
freedom, to do what I want to do, when I want to do it. Being your own
boss has huge freedom based benefits. But to achieve these benefits
requires on-going plain simple hard work. There is no easy way to make
money online other than hard work, that is a guaranteed fact, and
covers any part of life. Everyone has the potential to make money on
the internet. But to achieve this requires a real commitment to the
absolute requirements of knowledge, quality, honesty, and hard work.
Remember always value what you do, and how you do it, and others will
value you for it. That is certain.
