Hi..
I am about to launch my first CB product and i have some questions for the existing vendors here:

1. After purchasing, do customers get directly redirected to the thank you page or do they get a email with the 'thank you page' link?

2 (sub question) If they are on the 'thank you' page and click download but instead of saving the file they instantly open it (pdf), wont they come whine afterwards about how to get the file agian?

3. Do i need a OPTIN on my thank you page to collect a list of buyers? Or does CB allow me to pull a list from my vendor account?

4. What kind of promotional tools do i need to add on my CB vendor page for affiliates? (only banners?)

5. i read a lot of commotion about CB affiliates not beeing able to use FB ads and such for CB products.. does that also count for me if i would try to promote my own product without an affiliate link? (straight domain link)

    1. After purchasing, do customers get directly redirected to the thank you page or do they get a email with the 'thank you page' link?
    Yes, both.

    2 (sub question) If they are on the 'thank you' page and click download but instead of saving the file they instantly open it (pdf), wont they come whine afterwards about how to get the file agian?
    I have a script that I use on my sites and sites for my clients/JV's that forces the download of a PDF as opposed to opening it up in the browser. You can Google to find such a script.

    3. Do i need a OPTIN on my thank you page to collect a list of buyers? Or does CB allow me to pull a list from my vendor account?
    Well, you really need an autoresponder that is integrated with ClickBank. I'd recommend Aweber as they integrate easily with ClickBank and will seamlessly collect the email after purchase. The customer will however need to confirm their email address by clicking on a link in an email sent out to them. The alternative is to set up an opt-in form on your thank-you page.

    4. What kind of promotional tools do i need to add on my CB vendor page for affiliates? (only banners?)
    Whatever you want.

    5. i read a lot of commotion about CB affiliates not beeing able to use FB ads and such for CB products.. does that also count for me if i would try to promote my own product without an affiliate link? (straight domain link)
    No, won't count for you using your main domain without hoplink.

    There is still a little problem with this...

    A script can only solve the problem of how the file is delivered from YOUR download link, and while it solves the OPs immediate problem, it does not solve the problem where that PDF file becomes indexed and is available to anyone (i.e. non-buyers) who finds your PDF file via a google search.

    Zip files, on the other hand, are not indexed, and cannot be opened in a browser when your buyer clicks on the link. They are forced to download the file immediately from your "thank you" page. I would suggest zipping your pdf file before uploading to your web server, and link to that file from your thank you page.

    2 (sub question) If they are on the 'thank you' page and click download but instead of saving the file they instantly open it (pdf), wont they come whine afterwards about how to get the file again? IF IT SITS BEHIND A MEMBER PORTAL, NOT AN ISSUE

    3. Do i need a OPTIN on my thank you page to collect a list of buyers? Or does CB allow me to pull a list from my vendor account? IF YOU USE MEMBERSHIP SOFTWARE, IT CAN DO ONE OF TWO THINGS, COLLECTS AN EMAIL ANYWAY, WHICH YOU CAN THEN UPLOAD TO AN AUTORESPONDER, OR IN MY CASE IT SENDS OUT AN OPTIN FOR ANYONE THAT BUYS.

    4. What kind of promotional tools do i need to add on my CB vendor page for affiliates? (only banners?) I WOULD SUGGEST BANNERS, SWIPE FILES, KEYWORDS, ANYTHING A POTENTIAL AFFILIATE COULD USE TO HELP THEM OUT.

    5. i read a lot of commotion about CB affiliates not beeing able to use FB ads and such for CB products.. does that also count for me if i would try to promote my own product without an affiliate link? (straight domain link) IF YOU HOST ON YOUR OWN DOMAIN, IT SHOULDNT BE AN ISSUE. IT MIGHT BE IF YOU TRY AND ADVERTISE THE HOPLINK DIRECTLY
    Sorry about the caps, but was easier to distinguish as I was answering.
