Warrior forum advertising?

I've just launched my first WSO and I'm wondering weather I should purchase banner advertising on warrior forum at 100 per day?

    is your wso doing good? are your refunds low? is your support in place?

    if so the banner does work. But i would not do it if your not already
    doing decent.

        What i meant was, is it currently LIVE, and is your WSO making you money ? enough to consider a 100.00 a day investment?

        DO you have a bunch of reviews posted yet?
        if you don't, i would not spend money on a banner UNTIL you do.

        A LOT of people here don't buy, until they see the wso running for
        a while, and they see the reviews. ( they just want to make sure your not a snake oil sales man, or a fly by night )

        this happens more to the people running first time wso's and or the people with low post counts.

    What price is your WSO? If $10, then you need ten sales to break even, covering the cost of the banner ad.

    How many sales have you gotten now? How many people viewed the WSO thread? If you have 1 sale, and 50 views. Then you need 500 views to break even.

    This is just a guess, not a formula. Only way to know for sure, is to try it for a day.

    I wouldn't do it YET if I were you.

    By the look of your WSO thread, there are no reviews yet, and only 1 replied.
    With the banner, that's not gonna help you, instead - most likely you're going to waste that $100.

    Just like the above had said, you need to know if your WSO is converting at the right price, and know your conversion rates in order to see if $100/day that pulls 100-200 views/day (by adding a + to the banner url if it was shortened by bit.ly, you can see its daily stats) is worth it.

    Hope this helps.

    I wouldn't bother with the banner advertising unless your WSO is a little established with a nice amount of comments, reviews, etc. If people arrive at a 'dead' thread then they will most likely click away pretty quickly. There are so many great products for sale in the WSO forum and no one wants to be the guinea pig so most will wait until they see a nice popular WSO thread before they purchase.
