How do I sell my video course?

There are so many ways to do that

But first you need to think more about the product

500 GB is a way too much , you will need to cherry pick out of that(Things that you feel will help the potential customers)

You will need to have different products made out of the 500 GB otherwise it may get overwhelming
unless you decide to have a membership based website where you can drip feed the content .

In order to attract good affiliates assuming this is ur first launch ,you have to make the offer more lucrative (eg 100 percent commission on the front end ) .

I would personally message few super affiliates on Facebook and give them access to my product and let them decide .

Once you have got some buzz going around you will attract more affiliates for sure .

For starters you need to get in few good affiliates first(start with personal message on Facebook) and then take it from there .

If everything goes well down the line you can even launch your product on the bigger scale by
advertising on muncheye(to attract even more affiliates)

See you at the top

I don't know if you've thought of udemy.com. I think it's a platform where you can quickly get affiliates to promote your product.

I have heard a couple of things about teachable.com too but then, I still think you should pay some attention to udemy.

500 gb is too much. Like the buddy before me, check with udemy. I've made tons with udemy and then you can siphon the traffic to your site.

Ask me if you have any questions on how to go about it.

Some one in the trail mail correctly mentioned that udemy.com can work really better

On this website, I also made a "video course", which has premium content which I charge for access. That's as far as I understand how to market this content though. I'm interested in somehow packaging this course (which is about 500+ GB of video) and uploading it to clickbank so people can sell it for me. I have a few questions. Is this possible to do? Is there any other ways do promote this "video package" to potential affiliates? Thanks a lot!

Yes, there is a way.

But this way requires a lot of guts and strong mentality.

And that is to contact your competitors.

As in vendors in your niche.

However for this to work, you need to sign up as their affiliate and help them make a few sales.

Then once you do that, you go and contact them via email asking them if they are interested to promote your product to THEIR mailing list.

The reason I am asking you to do that is because your competitors - especially those in your niche with high gravity in Clickbank or highest sales volume in JVZoo - have a mailing list that is many times bigger than yours.

If you can get just one to blast out an email about your product to THEIR list of hundreds or thousands, you can make a lot of money.

But your product also needs to deliver value as what you promised in your salesletter.

Email marketing as well as social media are great tools but you need to know how to use them properly. If you're not sure on what you are doing, you can just outsource workers that you can pay on monthly basis, just be sure to find the right guy for the job. Odesk and onlinejobs are good way to go to hire these workers.

Wow it is interesting to read the various comments on this thread as to what you can do.

I amazes me that people are suggesting reducing size and all sorts of other options.

You can use so many solutions to serve up your content but you are saying you already have people on your site and they are the ones currently purchasing the content.

As for using Clickbank or any affiliate platform all you really need to do is create the course which it sounds like you have already done.

I'm assuming you have the video content either uploaded to Amazon S3 or Vimeo or Wistia etc and you can serve them to your purchasers via a secured part of your site (membership area) - am I right?

If you haven't got the membership site part set up then you need to look at that part before looking at listing on Clickbank or JVzoo etc.

You can set up a membership site with S2 Member or any number of other Wordpress based solutions.

You can also set up a membership site with any number of paid solutions like Kajabi or Clickfunnels etc etc.

ONCE you have the membership site set up with the structure you want, and you can set up multiple sales pages then you can think about using Clickbank or another network.

If you are using S2 member there is a process to set up the correct parameters for Clickbank as there will be for most membership solutions out there.

Everyone will have a preference for what works best and what they have used.

Personally I've used S2 Member, OptimizePress with their membership platform (very similar to S2) Cloudnet360 - formally PremiumWebCart and Clickfunnels.

I have active memberships working using each of the platforms and using a variety of the affiliate networks including Clickbank and JVZoo..

Clickfunnels has its own affiliate system called Backpack but it also works with any outside affiliate program.

Don't sweat the size of the content.

We have huge video content based memberships with over 80 hours of video in HD running and the size of the content isn't the issue for any member. They are not going to watch *ALL* the content in one go nor are they going to download it all at once. many solutions allow you to deliver the content via "drip-feeding".

If your course is complete and you already have a market for it then adding it to an affiliate network is not that hard.

You will need to develop some affiliate tools - banners, promo emails etc etc - look at what any of the good affiliate products are doing to model them. Most good products have an affiliate or JV page.

You will often find the best sales come from your own traffic and even though you might list on an affiliate network you will still want to promote yourself.

There is a lot more I could go into but others may have some contributions and it may keep for later.

I'm creating delicious YT content to drive hype / excitement for my video training course. In dealing with a course of this size, i'd strongly consider having your own web app built. You can get a simple ruby on rails site which automatically processes payments, logs user activity, etc. for less than $1,000.

I thought about doing the affiliate thing myself a few months back. After dealing with some "super affiliates" and "wanna be super affiliates" I find that they are most responsive when you are willing to bend over and place your lips squarely onto their buttocks while making a loud smooching sound in the process.

The most powerful affiliate relationship I've had are those where the affiliates come and approach me. If your product is good enough, they'll find you. Success begets success.

Due to the lack of originality in todays' IM space, if your product is good, they'll find you.

Back to original point - controlling and having total control over 500GB of training material would be my paramount concern if I were in your shoes.

Not quite sure about the 500.G, you may have to contact the Click Bank Builder Support to clarify that. I'm assuming you're familiar with the Click Bank Builder, since you mentioned the platform? I used it a while back to launch one of my eBooks on Click Bank.

Being quite new to Warrior Forum, I couldn't launch any of my eBooks as W.S.O. Instead I created a classified listing on W.F. Perhaps you may want to explore those options?

SPLIT THIS COURSE in a MEMBERSHIP!

So you can earn more, and give a step by step infos to your users, and check if they have learnt it well.

Suggest you upload to JVzoo instead of Clickbank in CB a lot of competition in JVzoo your product can be found much much easier. I have experience.

It sounds like you are already hosting the content on your website in a protected membership area. Even though the size of the content is 350+GB I'm assuming that you have that uploaded to a hosting service such as Vimeo, Wistia, etc. so that users can stream the content.

If you want to take on the task of finding affiliates yourself or at least offering affiliate capability directly from your site then you could use an a shopping cart with an affiliate feature in order to manage this. SamCart and ThriveCart both have this capability. The benefit here is that you control the entire process. This is probably a good option if you are outside the IM niche with your product.

However, if you want affiliates to find you and your product is IM related then JVZoo might be a good option. Non-IM related options might be ClickBank, Zaxaa, DealGuardian.

Either way in order to be effective you need to build a relationship with affiliates and provide them with tools to promote (copy, banners, swipes, etc).

Also, consider collecting testimonials. Get that one purchaser to give you their honest feedback. Give away a few copies to your website members and get their feedback. Social proof is critical if you really want to sell your course.

Maybe with clickbank ?
