    Are you just starting out in the IM world? It depends what you know, what you've done as well.

    The only way to answer this is to try it out and see. For me anyway it sounds possible as long as your promoting a quality product.

    It depends. How targeted will your traffic be? How do you define quality traffic? Regardless, a 10% conversion requires fantastic copy and something which has a high need. 10% isn't common for noobs, I would say unheard of for noobs.

    What is your Cost Per Click?
    What is your conversion rate?
    What is your budget?
    What is the cost of the product?

    With those questions answered, you will be able to tell whether having 1 out of 10 people buy is a realistic goal. It just might be, but you have to answer those questions first.

      i think its important to give yourself a timeline...
      things like this don't just happen in a few days or weeks.
      it might take months of hard work before you see good results.

    That's not impossible, but a 10% ratio for sales/visitors is awfully hard to do. I think its a lot more reasonable to accept a smaller ratio and work on bringing in more traffic.

    In other words, a 2% ratio with 10k views gets you the same amount of sales as a 10% ratio with 2.5k views. I think the 2% ratio is a more practical target.

    Ignore those negative feedbacks and go with what you think is possible.

    Few quotes for you

    "Your time is limited, don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't let the noise of other's opinion drowned your own inner voice." Steve Jobs

    "The person who says something is impossible should NOT interrupt the person who's doing it."

    "Confidence not come from always being right but not fearing to be wrong."

    Have a blessed IM journey.

    Never set yourself goals that seem fairly easy to achieve.

    Set yourself an impossible goal and whilst in peak state, with the right belief, focus and determination you can achieve it!

    You'll get there if you deserve to. Simple as that. I just hope that you haven't written that killer review yourself. If you did, then not a chance in la la lollypop and happy go lucky fairytale world will you achieve that.

    Your goal is very ambitious but not impossible. As long as you're not going to give up if you achieve less than half or ever 1/10th of that is what matters really.

    I personally like to start low and build from there. I'm setting up a campaign now and if I get a 2% conversion rate on sales for the first month or so I'll be very happy. Ultimately I would like a 10% conversion rate and if that's not possible I'd like enough traffic to make my 2% conversion still earn well.

    At the end of the day though implement and test and go from there.

    People says impossible because they are afraid to fail, but the truth is, it doesn't matter. Afraid is only drawing back your fullest potential. There is no creativity can comes if you are afraid of failing. Just keep on, keep on.

    I doubt if you sold a product online for $1 that the above would happen, and that the conversions would be 10%.

    It's not that getting a 10% conversion rate is impossible. In some niches, it isn't even hard. But promoting a clickbank product makes it alot harder. In my experience, clickbank products tend to convert much lower than 10%.

    If you are using ppc, be careful that you can directly send the traffic to the offer. If you are using something like adwords you will have to direct them first to your site, then on to the Clickbank offer. This double hop will significantly lower your conversion rate.
