Bright-eyed, bushy-tailed Web Marketing newbie with ONE question... [OUTSOURCING]
Hi guys, this is Joe.
I found this forum just this week and it seems like an amazing resource, especially considering it's not behind some member gate like on all the expensive guru services.
Having said that about the gurus, the free stuff they've been putting out over the last few months really helped open my eyes to the possibilities of what can be done with product launches. Back in the summer I watched a lot of Eben Pagan, and also found info from Jeff Walker and a few others pretty revealing too. Without spending any money
Anyway. Here I am, I'm a fair way down the line (got a niche which I think is a good one, got a product, got free content and working sales funnel, etc. Still need to do some videos but I'm on that and in the meantime, I am now at the stage where I need to drive traffic so qualified traffic generation is what I've been looking into in detail most recently.
Jeff Johnson and Tristan Bull both seem to have solid info on what works doing that - forum posts, blog commenting article marketing and video posting, etc. I'm already doing the videos and excited to see how that pans out. I also have a strong idea for affiliate plans further down the line once I can prove that this thing will convert for them.
As for the majority of required activity to drive traffic though - the whole strategy with forum/commenting etc - it's obviously a lot of work to make it work - which got me thinking about outsourcing - and Tristan himself personally recommends in his recent PDF that it is a good idea to outsource a lot of the things you need to do to start driving traffic.
Which brings me to my question: where and who do you go to if you want to outsource this kind of stuff?
Is it possible to hire people on a revenue share or commission basis if they like the niche/product and if initial numbers suggest good conversions? Could they get the ball rolling for an initial fee? My initial searches for some sort of "guru product launch traffic outsourcing" plugin-type service hasn't given me much, although now I've found this place I am hoping you guys can help us have a fruitful discussion about outsourcing various aspects of traffic driving in a product launch scenario.
After all there are quite a lot of so called product launch gurus out there so surely there must be a service in which a true expert guru has a team of people which, rather than selling $2000 products on how to 'DIY' do-it-all-yourself - can potentially earn MUCH higher sums by taking a 50/50 split of revenue generated by the projetcs they take on, in return for doing some of the work... provided they think the opportunity is a good one in the first place of course.
Looking forward to hearing what you guys think.
Thanks,
Joe
