I agree with Curtis on all counts ... the only spot my opinion differs and leans more toward Alan and Todd is attracting JV partners with that low a price point.

Successful list owners work very hard to qualify their central lists at higher price points ... it takes time, and hard work ... to build, ongoing, the level of rapport. I doubt ... unless it's the front end of a continuity program, there is an upsell built in, or it's part of a much larger list building JV ... that they will waste their time as a JV partner for a $9 product launch (unless you are part of their innermost circle).

It's simply not worth the ROI per subscriber, IMHO ... it would have to have such an incredible hook or perceived value that it converts at over 10%, paying 75 - 100% commissions ... to be near worth the while.

Best,

Mike
