Can A Bonus Hurt Sales?

[Mukul Verma]

I am looking to give away a bonus which is useful with the product, however it is a a freebie that floats around for cheap or free??

Thanks in advance

if it's a very old product it will be recognized as such and could devalue your product, try and get a couple of related bonuses that came out this year.

Where would you find a list of new PLR?

Any other ideas on this?

you could search the WSOs it's not hard to find good PLR products.

A bonus is a value added incentive for purchasing, so it should be original, not readily available and enhance the product itself in some way.

For example, write up a 5 or 10 page bonus report that goes with the product on actual case studies or something along those lines. Or offer a free 30 minute consultation on using the product or whatever.

From both a buyer and seller perspective, it really turns me off to see a sales page with 5 or 10 or more "Bonuses" that have nothing at all to do with the product and look familiar to me in some way.

I buy a lot of IM products, mostly from the Warrior forum but when I do buy something outside the forum, if I see a sales page with 10 goofy a*s bonuses, that really tells me all I need to know

Not only that, bonuses cost the buyer a lot of money. How? Because they eat up your precious time that you could be putting toward actually making money

Just my 2 cents

good quality product related bonuses can help the buyer achieve their goals further and can improve upon your product's perceived value

IMO bonuses could be sales driving assets. If you offer a really good bonus it can actually be the final trigger that makes people buy. I've even bought products myself just to get my hands on the bonus product.

As mentioned by of the others you could find a whole lot of potential bonus products on various PLR and Master Resale Rights sites. But I think you would be even better off if you make a bonus product yourself that completes or is closely related to your main product.

Without knowing much about your product you could add training videos on how to use a specific video editing software as a bonus. Or you could give away a prompter software or perhaps a set of in-depth tactics as bonuses.

Yes I cannot stand it either when someone throw a gardening eBook as a bonus when selling something for making money online.

I got what I believe it a really good product, just sharing what I have done to get over a million views on videos. I just dont want to hurt it with a bad bonus.

Here is what I think. Creating another Bonus Product or explaining how to use certain programs better is a GREAT idea!!!!

Then the product that is free and old, however useful. I will just add it as unannounced bonus

I've decided against buying something I was on the fence about when I saw that they had a LOT of bonuses, some of which were only loosely related to the product. It seemed desperate, and made me think that the product probably wasn't that good.
