Vendors - Have you tried this and has it worked?

4 replies
Just wondering if any vendor (I have a product on JVZoo) has had success with offering a $1 trial straight after a subscriber has opted in for a free report etc and charged remaining full amount 14 or so days later.

Uptake, Refunds, cancellations etc

I'm not in the MMO or IM niche.

    I have had success offering an affiliate product with a $1 trial as an OTO and it has converted at 12% lifetime for me. It is related to the opt-in report.

    I don't see why it wouldn't work in niches outside IM as long as it is information that people need and want.

    not a vendor. but you can go with $14.00 a month membership and drip feed the content after the $1 trial.

    I don't believe a $1 trial with a one time purchase 14 days later will function correctly on JVZoo.

    It will function with a $1 trial and then 2 payments one 14 days later and 14 days or 30 days after the payment on day 14.

    It is just that PayPal will not accept a one payment subscription. The trial payment is not counted as part of the subscription because it is a different price. All the following payments after the trial will be the same amount and can't be less than 2 payments of the same amount.

    I hope this has been helpful,

      Thanks Steve,

      Saved me some time altering a sales page.
