Has anyone had success with file gateway

3 replies
I have a few ebooks and they sell a few copies a week. I was wondering if I should try to give it away but put it behind a file gateway. In the past it has not been successful, it seems people are put off and don't want to do a survey or give info even to get something for free. Maybe in my niche which is self improvement and time management the fit is not there. Thanks for any thoughts.

    My thoughts: Just try it for a week and see what happens! If no conversions, switch back to your old way of selling it. If it works, GREAT! Some people have success, others have none.

    It does not make sense to me that good time management means you have to go through two stages to get the free gift! I would suggest a free ebook is not enough of a carrot to justify the survey to your market. can you dress it up in another form?

    I have placed the links on a new blogger page and put a cpalead gateway over it with a paypal option for a small price. Simple, but it is starting earn some money. It was a pretty simple process to set it up.

    Edeireg, if you get good information that saves you hours for the rest of your life, a few minutes to get it for free seems ok to me. Most good time management systems cost money, some of them lots of money.
