by Networking_now
24 replies
John Thornhil and other marketers advises to use clickbank for wsos

These marketers recommend your WSO payment processor button to be clickbank,
,compared to w+ etc.

but does that mean to use a cb link to pay, clickbank need to assess the wso, and download link for approval, taking 3-5 days as they check all products, for approval ?

    If you set it up on its own separate account it would, but if you put it on an existing account, which means it's not listed in the marketplace, but affiliates can promote it, then you don't need their approval.

    I don't run WSOs through it but I do use EasyClickMate for working with CB so my affiliates can log into one area to see everything I have to promote, get their links, etc.

      You can set up more than 1 product per clickbank account.

      Set up a separate product, with its own pitch and thank you pages for your wso. Initially this pitch page is not linked from anywhere. Test it. Get it approved by cb if necessary. Etc.

      When you are ready to go live, then link this pitch page from your wso post.

      If you want affiliates to be able to promote your wso products, you do not need to give each wso product its own clickbank account. All you need to do is use one of this scripts (like my own product CBMultiLink. but there are others available too) which allows multiple landing pages per clickbank account.

    Yes I use clickbank. I have been a vendor at clickbank for over 14 years.

    I don't use a weber myself, so that part was based on what I've heard/read. It does say on a weber site they have a clickbank integration app: https://help.aweber.com/entries/2170...k-With-AWeber-

    Clickbank require you to have your product hosted on it's own salespage.

    So the first thing you need to do is to create a self hosted salespage on your own website.

    Once you have done that and have it approved, you can then duplicate that product and list it inside of the Warrior Forum. For that to work with affiliates though you will need to use a tool and the best and cheapest tool is actually the one by John Thornhill.

      These wso reduced priced products wont be listed in the cb market place will they?

      so how would affiliates find this wso to promote? (I mean the wso version of the clickbank product, which would be a reduced price)

      how would affiliates find this product to promote? or they wouldn't find it?

      and with that John Thornhill software do you have to send every affiliate their custom affiliate link ? for the WSO product they would be promoting, via a clickbank payment page ?

            He means that you will have to recruit affiliates yourself. Basically, you will have to get the word out about your product on your own.

          Hmm, not really. You still have to send people through a hoplink if the affiliate wants any chance of getting their commissions. When someone goes through a hoplink they are automatically taken to the pitch page specified in your Clickbank account. This is a page that has to be approved by Clickbank and they most definitely would not allow you to have one price and then tell people to click elsewhere for a better price.

          So the best solution is to use a tool like I mentioned above where you can still send people through a hoplink but you are in total control of where they end up after going through that hoplink -- in this case it would be your WSO page.

          It's a much better solution and won't get you into trouble with Clickbank.

            You click on the hoplink, this sets the cookie and then you order from Item 2. The affiliate gets the commission.
            ClickBank has no problem with that.

              Not so sure about that. So you are saying Clickbank are ok for you to have one price listed and then on the same page an option to get that exact same product at a second (cheaper) price. From my experience they don't like that stuff because you are listing one price to make the second one appear better.

              Anyway, to the OP, definitely check with Clickbank. But the most streamline version is to do what I said above. It's what I have done and many others when running Clickbank products as WSO's and it worked very well.

                No - that's not what I am suggesting

                You say (e.g to your list) here is the normal sales page but you can get a reduced price by clicking on a (separate) link.

                  Yes, but if you are sending people through the regular hoplink then they will be arriving on the salespage listed for that product. So that's where you would have to have that link to the discount and I don't think Clickbank allow that type of thing.

                  Unless ofcourse you are saying to send them just to a regular page on your blog or site and give them two links, one to the regular sales page and one to the discounted sales page. In that case you have the potential to lose sales if they don't first click on the link (hoplink) to the first sales page and just went straight to the discount page.

                    You don't send them to a discounted sales page.

                    You provide the order link to the discounted sales page.

                    I said this back in my first post viz

                    1. Here is the product at the normal price - showing Item 1.
                    2. Here is the WSO price - providing the order link to Item 2

                    That will also work for affiliates promoting the WSO.

                        I now get what you are saying. As an affiliate though I would never want to do that. The moment you give people two links to click the less likely it is they will click both. So you are risking some leakage from those who do not click the first link and go through your hoplink.

                        That's why I still say the method above of using John Thornhills script is a much better way of doing things. Even if I was to use your method above, I would still use John's script to send people to that page because that way when they arrive at the page they have already been through the hoplink so whether they click both links or not you will still get the sale.

                        It's much safer.

                              But they must have visited the salespage, even if they did not study it, in order to click on the order link.
