    I dont see why not?

    Its not mandatory to buy so the customer can simply click skip offer, go for it and try it out more money for you ey!

    I don't see why not.

    The buyer wants whats advertised, as long as you don't make it impossible to avoid the upsells (which I experienced on a WSO a few weeks ago) they it's surely not a problem.

      Yes Buddy, you can upsell on your WSO's. Just keep in mind that your upsell needs to be closely related to main product you are selling. As an example, you can start selling your main product(report) for $7 and upsell with a video(I am referring to the video version of your report) for $14.

      Hope this gives you some fresh ideas.

    To be honest, if someone is selling me a product on marketing and DOESN'T try and upsell me, I'd be a bit worried

    There's nothing wrong with a related upsell and its good marketing. That's why we're all here.

    Yeah I don't have a problem with a related upsell. The times I get frustrated (and this is with general sales not WSO's as I've not had this occur on a wso purchase) is when you buy a product with all these big promises and the upsell is some 'secret part' that is how the seller really got the results they did. They will tell you you don't have to have this but it really supercharges the system, etc.

    If the results shown on the initial sales page needed this 'thing' it should be included or at least disclosed on the main page.

    Like I say... Never had that happen with WSO and hopefully never will and the normal upsell or one time offer for a bonus related item is fine by me.

      Yeah I've seen WSOs go close the line with that sort of stuff.

        Absolutely! You'll find that many of the "free" WSOs have upsells too, as well as get you on their list.

        Just do it right - your upsell shouldn't be something you held back from what you promised in the WSO and of course it should be related in theme. Some upsells are tools, or coaching, or content material to help you use the WSO product faster/easier.

    That is just good business.

    If you aren't doing it you better start.

    Every WSO should have an upsell.

    There are obviously many models for making money with WSOs, but the upsell is generally where the real money is made. And, many of the top WSOs have a whole sales funnel in place.

    If you're really stuck for an upsell, negotiate with another marketer to offer a special discount on a related product of theirs - offered through an affiliate link of course.
