Being Lied to? In the First 30 Dayof Signing Up...What % of Your List Buys Your Product?

Hello,

Let's say you have cold traffic from Adwords or article marketing. You warm them up enough to get them to join your list. What % of these people do you actually get to buy the product you're promoting?

I hear people say they get 5-%10 of the people to buy the product but to me that is amazing. Now if you had a reputation at the warrior forum and people signed up to your list I could see that happening.

However just by promoting a 10-day ecourse to random people who came to your site seems like it's a tough deal to convert these people. Even they are interest in your niche.

I once even asked Jimmy D. Brown this same question and he told me that 10% of the people actually buy from him. However, he has the name and they most likely didn't come to him through Google Adwords or FaceBook ads.

So to those of you in niches outside of IM what are your real conversion rates for every 100 people that join your list?

Me personally, in the fitness niche- (People joined from article marketing or adwords)

1. I converted 4% of my list to a $7 report (Great but not a lot of money)
2. I convert under 1% of my list to a product around $50 that I promote as an affiliate. (Not near enough to pay for the adwords traffic) The Product is TruthAboutAbs which we all know about

Maybe my list wants to buy a product that has my name on it instead of someone elses. However these people aren't aware of the affiliate thing either. I just tell them I like TruthAboutAbs and why I think it would help them.

Maybe I am just going about it the wrong way. Maybe I need to be like Steven Wagenheim or Jeremy K. and create lots of awesome products to promote to my list. Then over time I'll see more of a return but right now I am more depressed and would like something to go off of.

Lost and Confused!

Or maybe i just need a Ryan Deiss product on how to convert my list into buyers
