Posting a Service as a WSO

Hey Guys,

I am about to launch a service that is essentially Amazon Affiliate site creation.

I am going to have 4 different packages and even options for bulk orders.

I was wondering as to how do I go about posting this as a WSO.

When I try setting up a new WSO, it asks me for affiliate information, download link etc. - all which does not pertain to what I am offering here.

So do I go ahead and post this in some other sub-section? Is the WSO main section limited to downloadable products only?

I'd appreciate any guidance on this front.

Thanks a lot.

    Skip the affiliate info or make the payout 0%. The download can be a simple PDF explaining next steps to your customer

      A better option would be to create a small report, sell that, and then offer your services on the backend.

      You will attract way more people/JV to your offer.

        True.

        Use the products to OPEN the minds of prospects to your service.

        Great way to sell instead of simply telling people about your services.

    The download link can be a page on your website, where the customer fills out the information about the kind of Amazon Affiliate site they need, and then you get an email with all the info.

    If you're using Wordpress, then the above can be done using a simple plugin like this > https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7/

    The WSO section is essentially for software, ebooks, courses (including video), and memberships. What you're offering is a service. You should either do what Brad and Tyler suggest, or post your offer in the Warriors For Hire section.

      Just wanted to let you know that just about every service that I'm involved is basically a membership with recurring income.

      For example, Aweber is and autoresponder service but you have to pay your monthly membership fees to be a member before you can use the service.

      A service is one of the better membership models as you may need the service in order to do business. You may be able to find other services that do the same thing but to change would cause more work and time plus inconvenience involved in making a switch.

      Another good example is your cell phone carrier. You pay each month to be a member so you can use their service. But again this is basically a membership.

      So if WSOs are designed to include memberships, there is not reason why a service would not qualify as a membership.

      I hope this has been helpful,

    A quick read of the WSO rules answers your questions:
    Rule #4: Service Offers

    If you are offering a service, then this is to be posted in Warriors for Hire. This includes SEO, design, web development and writing services.
    Although I dont see why you couldnt post the offer in 'Other Website Products & Services'

    Thanks for the input guys, we went ahead with the "Other Website Products & Services".

    What we're offering is a full-fledged service, which unfortunately, does not allow us to start with a "Report". Though expertise in said area will allow for such reports in the near future.

    I appreciate your taking the time to address my issue here.
