Advice on Possible Product Release

You can use a 100% instant payout to your affiliates. They would just email there list about your product and use there affiliate link.

Then when someone buys the software would track which affiliate member gets credit and would pay them 100% instantly for the sale.

I'm doing this right now on one of my sites and it works like gang busters.

Think about this.

If your JV's or affiliates were to send 1 email for you and they make 100 sales @ $37 each plus upsells and they get there money right NOW!

Do you think they would send a 2nd email?

Do you think they would maybe add your product in to there autoresponder?

Do you think they would tell the online buddy's about this?

Most important do you think they would want to work with you again?

I'm using the butterfly script to do this but you can get the RAP script from Sid Hale and it will do the same. The key is you have to use paypal.

HI Guys,

Charles this sounds good to me, BUT what i dont really
understand is the point of it?

Why would you get someone to sell something for you and
give them 100 % of the sale?

This means i am getting no money, no list no benefit whatsoever
apart from people who may or may not work with me again in the future.

Please enlighten me as i am almost positive i am missing something here.

Thanks also to everyone else, your ideas have given me inspiration and
as off yesterday i have started crating more videos at a higher production
level than theo nes on my site.

many thanks

Hi Mark,

You would be building your list while giving away 100% commission. Charles didn't say it explicitly but I'm sure that's what he meant.

So you will build your list, build great relationships with your affiliates/jv's (who doesn't like 100% profits) and possibly make money on an upsell if you have one.

I did a trhead a few months ago about the 3 goals of a product launch.

Money, the list, branding.

Most people can not do all 3 untill they are very well known.

By giving away 100% of the profits you can get more people to promote for you. Plus if they get paid instantly that just adds to the fun.

This is one way to grow you list fast.

THE MONEY IS IN THE LIST NOT THE PRODUCT.

Thanks

I have to agree with Charles - your list is going to be one of your most important assets.

Over a year or so ago I launched a simple site and gave 100% (on a $97 sale) to JV partners
and it was paid instantly through paypal.

I actually got more partners than expected to promote and it really helped increase my list
size fast.

Before I launched though I made sure I had an upsell (so that I could generate some income)
and the site was a free-to-join with a OTO.

That way, all the visitors signing up were joining my list, whether they bought the OTO or not,
but the partners were happy because they were getting a good payout.

To add even more for the partners I also added a cash contest, so in a way partners had the chance
to make more than 100% ... i.e. the full sale price and also potential contest winnings.

This resulted in partners pushing a LOT harder.

Even though I didn't generate as much hard cash in that launch as I could have, I did build
my list quite significantly (and also using the BFM script, every one of those members became
an affiliate - meaning they could bring in even more members)

You just have to decide what you really want to achieve from the Launch - as Charles said ...
money, list, or branding?

HI Guys,

Thanks for your recent comments.

Well i am pretty certain, after recent releases, that without a list its extremely difficult to make any money
so getting a good list would be my main goal.

SO i guess its giving away 100% on the product which makes most sense to me, but i am also worried that the list i would build from this type of release would be too narrow/specific to make anything from in the
future (unless i sell more and more video tutorials - which i could).

Can someone explain what "OTO" is? And what is the BFM Script?

many thanks

A OTO is a One Time Offer

This is a example of a butterfly script in actions go to

http://www.webtoolsnow.com/index.php?

and sign up as a free member then checkout the oto's on the site. DON'T BUY ANY OF THEM.

But what you are not seeing is thier are 2 OTO and then 2 OTO downsells if you don't buy. You only see this is you buy the product.

Now after you join you are made into an affiliate instantly. Now the people who did and didn't buy all become affiliates can they can promote for me.

Plus check out the JV tools once you join. All the banners and emails are done for you, they even have your affiliate ID built right in.

The butterfly script can be set to be paid or free on the frontend. This site is free to join as the purpose was to test the OTO for a different project.

Thanks
