What do you expect in a $47-$97 product?

[TimCastleman]

If you were going to spend $47 on a product what would you expect to get for that amount?

The same question for a $97 product - what would you expect from it?

I expect to be able to buy a product and then do absolutely nothing. I want to wake up every morning to money appearing in my PayPal account automatically.

Is that too much to ask?

I think it depends on where that price range falls in relations to the other competitors products. If its a $47 toothbrush, I am expecting to have the whitest teeth this side of the Mississippi. If its a $47 Television, I just hope it works.

I'm Ashley Howell, I think the more I pay, the more I expect the product to outperform lesser dollar products.

Something that has more value to me than my $47 or $97.

It depends on the offer. But if you're offering something for $47 that solves a problem that's costing me more than that on a regular basis, I'm jumping on it. I don't care if it takes one sheet of 8.5 x 11 or if it takes 12 hours of video to explain the solution.

This sarcasm is unfortunately the truth of what the IM niche is fueled on. I would expect some type of action plan nowadays.

I probably would not pay $97 for an info product. But I'd pay that much for software that I could use in my business over and over. I know there are exceptions, but most of the time when I see a $97 (and higher) price tag on an info product, I expect it to be full of shiny bells and whistles to justify the cost. I don't care about bells and whistles, unless what I need is in-depth info about bells and whistles. Or they've thrown in 27 bonuses they claim are worth over $459,283 alone!

No thanks. I'll pay half that, but I don't see much difference between most $27 and $67 info products. Software... now that's another story.

You're right, it's true. That's what makes the sarcasm both funny and kind of sad at the same time.

People seem to want to prolong the dreaming rather than DO something to achieve the things they dream about. People will buy a product and then not use it for what ever reason only to turn around and buy another product thinking that this time it will be the product that gives them all of the answers.

It's sad and unfortunately many people find themselves in the endless loop of buying the next big thing.

I would expect information worth $470 and $970 respectively - and I mean real good information, not just additional download baggage!

[TimCastleman]

Thanks for the serious and not serious replies.

I think for the higher end $97 product I would expect some type of "tool" rather than just an info product unless the info product is revolutionary ( which is rare these days)

[lcombs]

Obviously any product, no matter the price, should deliver as advertised.
But, "value" is purely subjective. I paid $77 for a product yesterday that I thought was crap. Only because I have better stuff sitting on my computer right now. (It happened to be an article spinner and submitter package).
However, someone who didn't know that there is something better, might think it was the best purchase they ever made.

This is kind of what I meant - (I hope mine wasn't the reply that was considered nonserious!)

To elaborate a li'l: When I'm buying a digital product these days, it is much more likely that I'll end up buying crap than good info. This in turn raises my defences against opening my wallet. Now in your sales pitch, if you convince me that the info that you are providing is really worth 10 times the amount I would be paying, mentally, I am prepared to take a chance with your product... The scenario changes once I have bought. Now, the product just has to deliver $47/$97 worth of value at the minimum so that I don't come back asking for a refund... The numbers put against value here are perceptions that would differ from person to person but I hope you get the gist of what I'm trying to say

I expect over 100 pages of quality content written by a native speaker. Although spell check will catch many errors. It will allow "pea pull" to pass. I still remember reading a resume of a man who claimed to be an expert in Widows 2000 and NT sewer.

[JohnMcCabe]

I expect the product to accurately and completely fulfill all promises made in the offer - period. No more, no less.

Of course, more is a rare and pleasant surprise.
