"How to" set up a WSO using Warrior plus that doesn't require an engineering degree? Does one exist?

Hi Joe, did you search youtube for some tutorials so far?

Add your product
Add your OTO
Then go to Offers page and set up an offer, Add product first , then add OTO
Connect the two

Watch their videos, it's a little confusing the first time.

To use Warrior Plus instead of Warrior Payments, you need a special link to open a new WSO thread.

(after some minutes of searching) Ah yes, here it is
http://www.warriorforum.com/newthrea...newthread&f=17

Then enter your copy. I recommend writing (and saving as you go) your copy in a word processor, because if you accidentally close, submit or delete the WSO thread, you lose it all instantly. When you're done the draft, paste it over into the WSO thread.

You can format your copy with bb codes or the editor.

Now here's where newbies can get confused (I did way back when).

You cannot paste a W+ buy button code into the new WSO yet.

Since the WSO hasn't been approved, W+ can't detect it exists. Therefore W+ can't make you a buy button yet. Make sense?

You have to submit the WSO copy for approval. I put "BUY BUTTON" in the copy to remind myself where the code will go.

Then wait for approval.

If it's more than two days, something's wrong. I have had WSO submissions disappear in the past year. Sometimes it's wording in your copy they can't approve the way it is. Submit a support ticket. Ask if there's anything wrong. Staff will get back to you and I appreciate how quickly they have done this.

Once you receive the PM saying the thread is approved and ready for payment, pay the twenty bucks and the thread will be up.

Now you can immediately go to W+ and have it find your new WSO. Create the button code, and paste it into the thread as quickly as you can. People will already be looking at it.

Also, grab the first post "Reserved for FAQ".

Now you are all set up.

To create an OTO, you need to re-do this process for the new WSO, then detect it and select the 'parent' WSO under "UPSELL/OTO OPTIONS" in W+. However, I would just skip this altogether--because I generally do not work with affiliates--and create the OTO on the original WSO button delivery page.

Also, there's this Help subforum thread, where the Warrior Payments process is OPPOSITE to using W+ because WP knows you are creating a new WSO:

Ad all your products, then setup an offer. Add the products in the offers with upsells and downsells.

Simple, warriorplus will do all the stuff for you in the background.

im having the same problem .Im an newbie and Ive been days trying to set u a free wso and I just get caught in a never ending loop and never get to the download page but just keep being brought back to the sales page . can some one tell me if I have to set up a download page and what code goes on it when i do ? do I have to manually put my affliate link somewhere? A dummies guide would be appreciated Support seem to be as confused as I am so no help there

The problem I encountered when I set up my first one is that it had an upsell and therefore I had submit it as an offer to W+.

What ended up happening was that the WSO went live way before W+ approved the offer since they can take 24-48 hours (longer if you submit it on a weekend) and I basically had a live WSO with a dead buy button.

What I ended up doing was setting it up in JVZoo since I get instant approval there and just putting a link underneath the W+ buy button and people used that until my offer was approved in W+, then I removed the JVZoo link.

If W+ allowed for instant offer approval like JVZoo this problem could be avoided. Another fix would be if WF allowed you to choose when your WSO went live. In other words, you could submit the WSO for approval, and then once it's approved by WF you could then submit it for approval to W+. Once they approve it you could then make the WSO go live.

I later found out if you are only going to run a standalone WSO you do not have to submit it for approval to W+. The buy button will work immediately. The problem with that is then it will not be listed as an offer on W+ and this is no good if you want to recruit affiliates.

I think the two companies should get together and come up with something that is less complicated and more user friendly.

Then again, I think Feelancer would much rather you use Warrior Payments for your WSO, so I guess they really have no motivation to make the process any easier.
