I have a wide range of tips to share with fellow Warriors - from teaching you how to write better (or smarter) to helping you learn how to wield the power of free traffic tactics. I'm big on ethics and I'm not shy about pointing out scumbags on my own blog (since it's against the TOS here).
I have made tens of thousands of dollars on the Warrior Forum alone and I'm always willing to help others learn the ropes if they just ask. I wanted to create my Warrior Forum blog to build an in-house area for questions and answers among marketers, so sound off in my comments area and I'll help you as best as I can and if I can't, I'll find someone who will.

Affiliate Commission: Tangibles Topple Digital Downloads
Posted 10-29-2008 at 04:20 PM by TiffanyDow
I feel like a giggling kid at Christmas right now, having discovered this. What have I discovered? Something that makes complete sense – tangibles (real items) will make more money for me (and you) than information (digital) products any day. Info Product Killer shone a light on this prosperous strategy for me. Why hadn’t I figured this one out before?
Here’s the quick story: I’m very successful at what I do – many that are reading this article right now know my name. I’ve made tens of thousands of dollars promoting eBooks, which are digital downloads and I will continue to do this. Why? Because it’s lucrative.
But, I’ve found something else that I, and apparently a lot of others had overlooked – selling and promoting real items online – tangibles. I ran across IPK (Info Product Killer) completely by chance.
I found myself curious and fascinated enough with the IPK concept to buy the program at full price rather than wait for a special offer, which I knew was coming. A bit about Info Product Killer, tangibles and digital downloads: The whole premise of Info Product Killer is that people, especially around Christmas, are buying things, not information.
They do Internet searches for gifts and holiday items. During the holiday season, people care a whole lot more about stuff they can touch and feel and give to loved ones than an eBook that shows them how to solve chronic fatigue.
Don’t get me wrong – eBooks and other informational downloads have a definite place in the market, but during the holidays, tangibles trump information every time and not only that, but they generally have a longer shelf life.
So the whole idea behind the Info Product Killer system is to set up mini-sites that offer what people are looking for at Christmas – Christmas gifts (using his readymade templates that are found in the members’ area)! The system works year round, but let’s stick with Christmas for now (it’s just around the corner).
Picture this - you, the happy entrepreneur who is using IPK, are basically providing people who are searching online for Christmas gifts and gift ideas an easy way to get what they want. Think Amazon affiliate gone wild. Shoppers and searchers come to the sites you’ve set up, find what they need, click, buy, and you reap commission benefits. Sure, this is the Cliffs Notes version, but you’re getting the drift right?
IPK shows you how to set up these mini-sites (it’s best to set up LOTS of them – bought dot info domains for 99 cents and many of us are using the IPK strategy for Squidoo lenses, which are FREE), find the right keywords and phrases that will lead shoppers to your sites, and make your sites highly visible (you have to understand placement and the use of free Web 2.0 resources – IPK teaches you).
The end result is that you make money doing something that most haven’t even thought of yet – promoting “real” things vs. information. This plan gathers its own speed during November and December like a snowball rolling downhill, but it also works year ‘round – you just have to make some small adjustments to keep the momentum.
The revenue that’s produced from this system is far and away more that you’ll make with selling and promoting only information in the form of digital downloads. Like I said earlier, I’ve been very successful with digital downloads, but I’m completely impressed with Info Product Killer and I can honestly recommend it because I’ve tried it and it’s worked beautifully for me – I earned my first commission on night 1!
Don’t worry that there isn’t room for you on the Internet to try this, too. That’s one of the most wonderful things about the Internet, IPK and Christmas combination – the playing field is wide open considering people buy gifts and products for themselves 365 days a year!
