hey!
Who of you have a own clickbank product or knows how to create this? How much time consumes it to produce a top selling clickbank product? Is it easier to create compared to an own offer from one of the big aff netowkrs like azoogle?

Will appreciate it if you share your ideas with me/us!

Thanks!

    "Clickbank product" is an interesting concept.

    I promise I don't mean it impolitely, but it doesn't actually mean very much.

    All a "Clickbank product" is, really, is a digital product whose vendor has chosen to link the sales page of the website from which he sells it to a Clickbank order-page, because he's chosen (for whatever reasons - usually to do with the affiliate-commission-processing) to use Clickbank as a retailer for the product.

    There aren't many intrinsic factors about digital products that constitute "Clickbankness", really.

    They're all things that could be for sale anywhere else (and some of them are, too).

    Clickbank is just a retailer, you know? It's up to each vendor whether they want to use Clickbank's payment-processing service.

    The criteria that make the product "top selling" aren't much different for Clickbank from what they would be anywhere else, such as e-junkie. One still has to make the product appealing to affiliates, promote it to affiliates, and so on.

    Customers don't "go to Clickbank to see what's for sale".

    They look for a product, or have one promoted to them, on the basis of being niche-targeted, not being retailer-targeted.

    From the customer's perspective, the fact that it then turns out to be for sale using Clickbank as the payment method (or not) is typically of virtually no consequence at all. I'm just saying ...

    Really, letting others sell your own Clickbank product is the way to go SO LONG AS you can come up w/ a compelling product, which is equivalent to writing a hit song.

      Like Alexa says, using Clickbank is just choosing a payment system.

      Isn't it interesting though that a "clickbank product" has a higher perceived value?

      You mentioned a best selling clickbank product? It takes an inordinate amount of effort to get a Clickbank bestselling product unless it is a bestseller in a vert tight micro niche.

      The bestselling Internet Marketing product would take a lot of effort and I doubt you could achieve that on your first product launch.

        Premise 1. Affiliates are worth their weight in gold.

        Premise 2. Affiliates look for products on Clickbank.

        Therefore, a product listed on Clickbank will have more affiliates, who are each worth their weight in gold.

            Feel free to argue either that no affiliate is that valuable, or that no affiliate looks for products on Clickbank.

                I don't see how your argument in any way changes the basic fact that putting a product on Clickbank does make it more valuable. Acceptance into the Clickbank marketplace is a commodity for which people will pay.

                    So being on Clickbank has value. Which is what I said. I don't see your point.

    Can be a big hit if you do it right? But browse the Clickbank market place and you will see for every big hit there are hundreds of duds.

    So don't think that having an CB product = Internet Marketing success story.

    If you have an great idea, here is what you can do. (summarized)
    -Do any outline of your idea
    -hire a ghost writer ($800-1500 for a 80+page ebook) or write the content yourself
    -use camtasia and make a video course and other promo videos for your product
    -go get a JVs (a fancy way to say affiliates) broker to find you affiliates
    -hire an designer/ web guy to build your site and banners
    -Hire copywriter to write up your offer ($300-20K)
    -Write a series of email auto responder for pre launch and post launch (swipe files)
    -Do pre-launch by emailing your list, if you do have 1 you can "borrow" one for a fee.
    or get JVs to send out to their list
    -offer cash prizes to your affiliates on launch day
    -submit your product to clickbank or paydotcom
    -Go to the bank to cash your big fat click
    Optional
    -Look me up at the warrior forum and buy me a beer . j/k I don't drink.

    All of the above will take you 30days to a few years depending on how organize you are and how fast you move.

    Hope this helps.

    Clickbank is not a product.....you don't really have a "clickbank" product. All they are is the merchant. It takes nothing more than $29.95 and an eBook to get on Clickbank....not really a big deal.

    Now what you want is a SELLING product!

    1. buy all the top products in the niche you are interested
    2. read them
    3. find a unique proposition, which contains the main elements in them but also something that makes your product stand out
    4. create the script of your product and design the funnel
    5. create a basic website and start selling the other products as affiliate to see which one works better for you
    6. put up a squeeze and capture the information of your future clients
    7. create the product or outsource it
    8. create the funnel or outsource it
    9. register your product with clickbank
    10. put the funnel together,
    11. test it with your list and the traffic you are already generating
    12. put all that information in a special page for the affiliates to encourage them to promote
    13. link that page from clickbank
    14. create additional promotional material for your affiliates

    keep it going...

    Anyone can create a Clickbank product. You can create one from scratch by hiring someone to create the content for you. It will involve high costs. Or you can create one from a PLR product, but I recommend you to edit it so nobody will recognise it being someone else's work. This give you more credibility.

    My first clickbank product was at the very top of it's category for over a year. It took me about 6 hours to put together. I didn't pay for a writer, or for graphics. And the sales page looked like crap. However, it was something a lot of people were looking for, and no one was providing it. The trick here is not to necessarily be unique, but to provide something that people want or need. You could provide the most unique product on the market. But if no one wants it or needs it, it's not going to sell.

      LOL - no. But I'm sure that's a desperate market.


      To me, Clickbank is like outsourcing without having to pay for it. You provide your affiliates with a good affiliate page and plenty of tools to work with and they do the rest.

      The key is to acquire a list of what I like to call uber-affiliates. And then nurture that list for future products. Treat those affiliates like Kings/Queens - and they'll pay you some royal taxes for sure. It's a win all the way around.

      This is the key to the whole matter. What are you going to sell. Who are you and what do you provide? Answer that and then ClickBank (or any other merchant service) will become an "open book".

      It doesn't, at this point, sound like you have an idea for something you can offer that people want? Am I wrong there?

    Clickbank is a great way to start out with in Product Creation. I think everyone should do a CB product just for the learning experience. (Just don't blame me for saying that if more crappy CB products show up LOL). It really is a good process to go through, and its not that difficult to do.

    If you have a compelling product in mind, it's well worth putting out your own product on CB. I've had a single product on there for donkey years and to this day I still make sales every week. I've had the product updated a couple of times to keep it fresh. But yes, if you can come up with a product people want, I'd suggest you go for it.

    Hope that helps,

    Creating a Clickbank product may be a time consuming task, however if you can afford $150 to $250 to outsource most of the task it could be created for about a week.
    For example hiring a researcher, writer and editor are some of the potencial costs you may have.I think you will need an additional $50 to register the book in Clickbank.

    Good Luck,
