Best Places for a Reseller to Promote IM or Video Software

3 replies
I have purchased resell rights to two very useful online or cloud based video editing and video creation software products and I was wondering what are the best places to promote such products.

I know that Warrior Forum Classified ads is one place and that you cannot promote resell products as a WSO unless the product is your own.

The products are not traditional software but rather are licenses to use the online software. The user is simply issued a username and password.

To spark some interest I intend to give away 3 licenses to one of the products to those that provide the most helpful tips if this is allowed..

I have listed on Craigslist but there seems to be no means of tracking the results.

Thanks.

    TF,

    First, and foremost, the very best places to market are those places where your perfect prospect hangs out. You are after venues where people are seeking exactly what you are offering. You want a concentrated pool of potential customers so that your offer resonates with them.

    How do you find specific places? It's called market research. It's best done before you create your niche and product. You want to be sure that buyers in any marketplace are actually desirous of what you plan to sell. If you can't find that kind of demand, then you're offer won't be profitable. As you get into researching a market place, you will learn exactly where the demand is coming from and how to get your offer in front of those targeted people.

    Asking other marketers to divulge their best sources is like asking your direct competitor to offer up his best strategy. It's like asking the opposing pitcher to tell you what his next pitch will be and where it is going to be located.

    Lots of people on this public forum will give you their opinions, just as I have done, but those who are profitable in your niche and who really know the answer to your question are not going to compromise their own business and hand you their "best places" as you are asking for.

    Good luck to you,

    You could try seeking out forums within your niche to promote there. There are quite a few video editing communities out there which are active so you might have some luck on there.

    Another great way of selling the licenses would be to start a blog related to video editing. You could post regular content related to video editing and/or video marketing and then promote your products through that. This method helps establish authority and trust very easy which are two very influential factors when it comes to a customer buying your product. The only downside to this is that it can take a while for your blog to get a steady course of traffic so it isn't always the best short term solution.
