because you are just starting out i think it would be a good idea to find just one product that you like a lot, and which is selling in the marketplace, and then see what it takes to make a few sales with it.

the bottom line is that most things you try simply will not work, so if you are trying different things with different products, you won't know whether it is the product or the promotional technique that is really giving you an assist.

try different things with one product for a while, and if none of it works too well, then go onto the next product knowing a little about the relative worths of the promotional techniques used on the prior product. you may discover than the previous product just doesn't convert too well, or you might find that the next product does not sell either. when you have done this a half dozen times and not found great success, you will want to re-examine those promotional techniques and perhaps look around for some alternative methods.

keep notes on things you have tested. if something does seem to work consistently, then you will be able to build on it later.
