I have a great idea to share with the world

9 replies
Hi everyone,

First of all thanks to all the skilled IM'ers sharing their wealth of knowledge on here. I'm learning so much and I'm looking forward to coming here to share my success story & tips in a few years.

I'm new to IM and while I'm digging deep into studying and learning as much as I can, I do want to take some kind of action to get some hands-on experience right away.

An unconventional "gadget" I purchased helped me diet and easily lose 20 pounds in just 6 months. I want to share this product and my method with the world, but figured this would be a great opportunity for me to set up some kind of simple monetization platform to "make my first $1" so to speak.

I'd very much appreciate hearing any recommendations on which avenue would be best to pursue this kind of goal: Squeeze page & build a list for future emails? Youtube with amazon link? Guest post on a blog?

    Good to hear that you are learning from Warriors, there's so much information here.
    As regards your question, it would help if we know what you have on ground - maybe a website or anything like that..

    Build an email list and promote there. Your email list is where you can get personal with your visitors and really push the product on them (not to mention you'll have plenty of opportunities to promote other products as well.)

    Use YouTube and Guest Posting, but use those to drive people to your squeeze page instead of to the product sales page itself. You'll make way more sales and you'll have people to promote to for the long-term.

      I've already got web hosting and some very basic wordpress knowledge/skills. That's all.

      Thanks, I think I understand but with the youtube video i'd be revealing my method, right? What would motivate the viewers to then follow a link to opt-in on a squeeze page?

        You don't need to reveal your methods in the video. The videos you create can be informational ones providing information about weight loss or they can be promotional, promoting your product or whatever you are giving away on your signup page.

        You don't let them follow the link to opt-in. You just put an opt-in on your first page, and people will fill those forms if they are interested (I know many people do in this way)

        I don't know if this works for you. To be honest, it really depends on if your visitors are interested in your product. They will leave their email address and other informations there if they like your product and willing to hear from you later on. Otherwise, they might just leave...

    if you are just wanting to promote the sales page, then use your own squeeze page to make your own list that directs to the sales page after..

    Naturally, Iam inclined to say the Squeeze Page and email route. Not much at all into Youtube. Although I know it can give you some good results.

    Good stuff.

    1. Product site.
    2. Build email list (give away a portion as a freebie).
    3. Sell your own product.
