How important is it for WSO sellers to offer 100% Commissions to JV's?

5 replies
Hi everyone, I hope you're all having an awesome weekend. I have had some brief conversations with a few respected warriors about whether WSO sellers should offer 100% Commissions and would love to know what other people's opinions on this are.

As a first time upcoming WSO seller, what would others suggest here, and if you feel that 100% Commissions are essential for a good first launch what about for future launches. I apologise if this sounds obvious to some, but I have dealt in many different areas before but until this point not WSO's.

One Warrior in particular told me "You have to realize that these people are diluting their 'buyer's list' every time they mail for someone. Now that buyer will be on YOUR list TOO.. and that means competition for them... you think they want to risk that they're 'buyers' start buying from YOU instead of them if they aren't going to make a lot of money for it up front? Hence the 100% commission, and the $10 price point. They know they can send you 50-100 sales, for them that's a $500=$1,000 DAY... for sending an email. But it does dilute their buyer's list, and that's why you better make them a lot of cash in ONE day to make them feel less of the 'pain' in that."

I can see what this person is saying, but for the amount of time, money and effort involved it would "pain me" to give all the money away upfront without at least getting something back straight away.

I do however appreciate that at the back end there's potential to make decent money once you have gained respect and credibility with your list.
Clearly if there was an OTO then there would be some money coming in, but everyone has their own feelings and opinions on OTO's, which has been the topic of many threads recently.

I am interested in other people's opinions and experience here.

Kind regards
Joel

      Awesome, that gave me a great laugh Michael, I didn't think of that lol. Seriously though I was asking more in terms of the WSO seller/ JV mindsets here.

    Sometimes people do offer 100% commission on the upfront product, but they will always offer less commission on the OTO. It is one way of persuading people to promote the product.

    I think if the product is good enough people will promote it with a lower commission of say 75%.

    100% commission and zero conversions still equals zero.
