Attention : Marketers would you promote this or trash it with your style of marketing

Hey Warriors,

We are working on a concept that has not been done
outside the IM world. Some of the big marketers like
Kern, filsame, brunson have, but only in the
internet marketing community for their products.
It has worked good for them
and we want to take it to a new level.

Instead of promoting clickbank products for one time sales
you could instead....?

My question is, would you promote a product,
that was a $1.00 lifetime membership, with a
7.77 oto.

The 1.00 goes to charity, you make 50% of the
7.77 and a lifetime 25% commission On all additional sales
that the membership site sells to that customer.

This is in a niche that is huge, and more importantly,
a niche that will get very high public publicity. The founder
of this platfrom is a very well known Personal development
coach, she is known as the COACHS , COACH !!

The celebrity power she brings to the table alone will
make for incredible hi power products that is sold
to the membership base.

If all u had to do was market the 1.00 membership and pick up re-occuring commisions for life would you do it?

Personally i think this is an affiliate marketers dream...question is, what do other warriors think....

Please give me your input good, the bad and the ugly

Regards,
Robert Nelson

    Hi Robert -

    I think that is a great idea. I would definitely promote something like this as long as it was in line with my list. I can only imagine what the conversions would be on a $1/$7.77 product. Should be outta this world.

    Again, I really like this idea and think most other affiliate marketers would too.

    Thanks!

    Aaron

    Sounds interesting but it depends on what you're promoting. If it's crap, then I'm not going to push it to anyone on my list. Also, is there demand for the product? Have you done any preliminary testing yet? I wouldn't open anything up to affiliates if I hadn't already tested it myself. Just things to consider.

      There is a huge demand for the product/products , Testing has been superior with great results. What u will find, is a platform, with the whos who in the mix. They are just not IM'ers but the product will apply to the GLOBAL community.

      There will be a list of 5 charities that we are supporting and the buyer
      will be able to pick one of the 5 that best suits their needs.

      Thanks for the input

    I'm reading this over and over again, but I don't quite understand how it works. So you are promoting a $1 lifetime membership fee that goes to charity, and they need to pay a recurring fee of $7.77 for lifetime?

    Sorry, I'm still new to this.

      Valiant,
      you promote a lifetime membership that costs 1.00 for a lifetime membership to kick ass content locked in a membership site. There is no recurring fee. We are going to offer an OTO at the 1.00 point of sale that we will split 50/50, u make 3.87 on that. However, any additional products purchased by the membership site members that u referred in via the 1.00 membership u will make 25% COMMISSION ON ALL SALES. This means, u drove traffic one time, and get paid again and again and again, as we make product offers to the membership.... Hope that helps.. any questions u can PM me.
      Thanks Robert

    Look good from your point of view you can pick a really trending charity and hope this goes viral so ordinarily people promote this for you via tell a friend etc.

    Not sure how that benefits affiliates unless you introduce extra tiers of commission

        Hey Robert -

        I'm just checking back into this thread because I had an idea about your charity stuff. Instead of just saying that you are going to give $1 to a charity, why not include some sort of drop down box and let them pick where their dollar goes to. Not that they would fill in the blank, but rather choose one of the 5-10 different pre-chosen charities you've selected, then they can pick one that is closest to their heart.

        Just thinking out loud and think this will help even more.

        Aaron

    There's certainly nothing wrong with this kind of pricing model.
    If the offer/service is good, then I don't see any reason for not promoting something like this. But keep in mind that the quality and type of offer/service is the far more important factor than the pricing model.

        Shane, thank you for your input, i could not agree more. If the product is no good, wont matter how good the offer is. However in this case, the product rocks. Thanks for taking the time to chip in your input.

        Dunder,

    Personally I would not be interested at all.

    Here's what I'm seeing. I get someone to sign up for $1 because they want to support the charity.

    There is an outside chance they are going to buy the OTO, and if they do, I make $3.87. Then on the double outside chance they buy something else for $7.77, I make a whopping $1.94.

    Then you start factoring in you are going after a wide market, not a targeted market.

    If I want to promote something for $1 and give it to a charity, I'd rather do it myself, and build a list for myself.

    Nothing wrong with your proposal, just doesn't seem to be a good return on investment for my time.

      Not for me personally, I don't like how charity and IM gets tied in with one another. Charity is essentially a marketing trick to make the buyer feel better about them self because some money is going to charity. I am not saying it's bad and I think its great that you want to give back I just don't like the two together.

        Kansas,
        thank you for your input, i think u missed it, This is a 1.00 life time membership site. There will be a huge amount of products sold through this platform from some of the Elite Professionals around the globe. After you made the initial 1.00 membership sale with the OTO, any time someone purchases an additional product thats your customer, you make
        25% of that sale,

        Example: Someone fills a 200 seat seminar at 300.00 a seat, if one of your customers purchases this you make $75.00 commission, which is paid out weekly. So in essesce, you got them to the membership site, made the 1.00 sale, and now you can make commission for life on that customer without having to be the one marketing to them.

        Hope that helps...or at least explains better.
        Robert

        Butters.. Thank you for your input, in addition to the 1.00 , 10% of all additional sales will go to charity. That in itself is huge. I can see where in could get mis interpeted as to mixing IM and charity, and do agree. As far as i can see, no one else has done this though.
        Thanks again
