How are wso sales since freelancer buyout?

by benjamenjuan

I'd imagine that consistent launches of high quality products and effective marketing plan is the best way to be profitable from launching WSOs but is there anyone that wants to chime in about the performance of their WSO launches before/after the freelancer.com buyout?

Thanks!

    Good question....I'd like to know more about this as well. I would imagine that the WSO price reduction has substantially diluted the WSO market, yet a consistent release of WSOs would probably be more than adequate to make up for this dilution.

      I'm surprised nobody chimed in here. I suppose one could look through wso sales before and after but a personal experience would be cool.

        Ok ... I'll chime in. I just ran my first WSO in a long time. I normally list in what used to be Complete Sites for Sale until they destroyed it by changing the name and putting Freemarket on the top 1/3 of the page, pushing our listings to below the fold.

        It was dismal. I bumped it once. Hardly any views and no inquiries. No sales. I won't be listing a WSO again. It was a waste of $40, and that has never happened to me before here.

            I didn't say I haven't achieved success. I've been working for myself for over 15 years. What I said was, that for the first time ever on this site, I ran a WSO that got zero interest. I have never run a WSO that got zero interest before.

              Oh lol! Yup, that's what I meant. I know how great you are on this forum, how much you've contributed, and how long you've been on it that I thought it was weird this one WSO of yours didn't skyrocket like it used to be. I guess a lot of things have changed ont pforum.

              I have run quite a few, several launching at the moment, the one thing i have found is that a really cheap price has helped, along with consistent launches

              Has it dropped?

              Yeah a fair bit

              But it still worth me launching on a regular basis

              Hope that helps slightly

      There has been a lot of dilution in the WSO section.
      We're in the process of cleaning it all up and will be rolling out new rules with the aim of showcasing quality products to the community.

      We're going through the new rules with our staff and hope to roll them out sometime tomorrow.

        While you're here, Alaister, even though it's a "digression" in this thread, please pass on thanks to the technical staff ,on behalf of the members, for having sorted out the longstanding "search function problem", today. It's a real pleasure to use it again!
