Questions Setting up a WSO...

11 replies
This might be a dumb question, but I'm not sure how to setup a WSO with 3 buttons for 3 packages. That's the first question.....

The second question, is when you have affiliates, does WSO PRO take care of the tracking of affiliates or do you need to have your own affiliate program (site side or whatever)?

Also is paying affiliates 10% an option? These are big packages. $299, $299, and $598.

Thanks a lot guys for your advice in advance!

    I only know the reply to your first question.

    Just slice 3 different images (buy now buttons) and make each of them navigate to a different checkout page with the price you want at each of them

    I don't know exactly how this works but if you work with ejunkie or something else you can create multiple checkout pages! If you don't get a reply from someone here just contact a mod

    Will you only be using WSO PRO for these packages?

    The second question, is when you have affiliates, does WSO PRO take care of the tracking of affiliates or do you need to have your own affiliate program (site side or whatever)?
    Wso Pro takes care of the tracking of affiliates, however, they need to sign up and give permission for WSO Pro because of Paypal's policies:

    Also is paying affiliates 10% an option? These are big packages. $299, $299, and $598.

    If you are using WSO Pro for all three offers, then you just put all three buttons in your sales copy.

    WSO Pro will track all of your affiliate sales and divide the money the way it needs to be done.

    It is an option, but one you might want to rethink if you actually want affiliates to promote your offer.

      +1 on this. Its hard enough to attract good quality affiliates when your giving a 50,60,70% commission. Offering a seasoned affiliate a 10% commission is likely just to make them angry.

      By the way product amount makes no difference since high products will have a lower conversion since they are harder to sell.

        I agree. Serious Affiliates most likely won't be interested in promoting a $299 or $598 product only to earn 10% ( $29.90 or $59.80 ) once they finally manage to make a sale. 10% is not something that is going to be very attractive simply because there are so many other choices available to earn much more in commissions in exchange for a much easier sale. $50% and up would probably be more realistic if the goal is actually to attract affiliates.

          OP: It might help to see what we are saying in real numbers...

          There is one particular offer that I am currently promoting that costs $147. On that offer, I am getting 2.67% conversion and I am getting an EPC (Earning Per Click) of $1.96.

          Another offer I am promoting costs $19. With that offer, I am getting 33% conversion and I have an EPC of $3.29.

          Then I have an offer I am promoting that is priced at $8. With it, I am seeing a 29.92% conversion rates and an EPC of $2.23.

          There is another offer I am promoting that costs $9.97 per month. With this one, I have a 52.23% conversion and an EPC of $4.77.

          With your offer, the bottom price is another $150 more expensive than the other high-priced offer that I am currently promoting. But, as you can see from my conversion rates and EPC numbers, I am making far more money promoting the $8, $10 and $19 offers than I am making by promoting the $147 offer that pays 50% commission!

          The bottom line is that if I have a choice of a $10 or $20 product with a 50% commission or a $299 with 10% commission, I will choose to promote the $10 or $20 product all day long.

    It's already been covered, more or less, but what would you do if you had the choice of promoting a $299 product for a $29.90 commission versus a $59 product for a $29.50 commission? There is pretty much no way you won't make more money on the lower priced/higher commissioned product.

    1. Just create the image and slice into three parts and link each one to the different products.

    2. Yes, you will need to create a separate Warrior Plus product for each option.

    3. Offering affiliates 10% commissions will result in you having no affiliates. You at least need to be giving 50%+ commissions if you want any chance of getting affiliates excited about your offer. 10% of $500 is still only $50 and it's a much harder sell for an affiliate than selling a $97 and getting 50% commissions and thus also earning $50.
