Can someone recommend a course or program that teaches you how to sell Clickbank products?

Alright, there are a million of them. I need a step by step, hold my hand program that shows EXACTLY the secrets and process of selling a clickbank product.

I've tried the review thing and 0 success so far. I don't know if I can even give away a CB product.

I have spent way too much learning the same old re-hashed information that doesn't work.

Is there really an easy to follow system that I can learn and actually make a CB sale?

    Another course isn't going to fix your problems.

    The 'review thing' DOES work and there are plenty of people out there making a lot of money from it. Just because something does not work for you YET does not mean it doesn't work.

    If you want to be successful then you should keep on with the review thing, find out what is not working, and keep re-adjusting things until it does.

    - You might be targeting the wrong keywords
    - You might be targeting the wrong niche
    - You might be targeting the wrong type of products

    There's a ton of reasons why it isn't working but that's not to say it can't work. If something isn't working it just means you now know one of the ways not to do it and you are one step closer to figuring out the magic formula. Maybe if you post a link to one of your review sites we could give you some feedback on ways to improve things.

      my site is Sterling Reviews

      I am purchasing domains related to the products. Ok, some of the products are new and are not highly searched for. I am using YouTube for product reviews also.

      Maybe you could give me some harsh criticism so I can improve.

      Here are some other Review sites-
      InsidersHub Review |
      Mass Cash Espionage


      I understand they need some work and better content. Am I on the right track?
      Should I use a different theme? Is the theme better in Sterling Reviews or the other ones. Does the video sound sincere?

      I would appreciate any feedback, positive or negative.

    I can't, I'm afraid.

    I've seen many, but they tend to be full of dreadful misinformation which is quite likely to make sure that people following it will fail.

    However you look at it, selling ClickBank products is really all about three main things ...

    (i) You have to select the products wisely: obviously enough, without getting this part right, it doesn't much matter what else you do!

    (ii) You have to pre-sell effectively to well-targeted traffic (so you have to at least one reliable way of attracting well-targeted traffic, and to understand clearly the difference between selling and pre-selling).

    (iii) You have to build lists and form relationships with the people on them, so that they'll buy on the strength of your recommendation. Without doing this, your conversion-rate will typically be somewhere between "very low indeed" and "non-existent": ClickBank products are generally successfully sold only on "trust", i.e. how much your customers trust your recommendation. Your income will be directly proportional to the degree of trust you establish by list-building and list-communications: it's simple, but it isn't easy.

    These three things aren't optional, really: you simply have to do all three of them adequately, to earn any money worth talking about.

      Great answer, Alexa, especially the link to your product selection criteria!

      Thanks

      I haven't used PPC yet. I thought the big "G" didn't like affiliate marketing on Adwords.

      I am #1 on Google for the following

      Traffic Avalanche Secrets Review
      Google Plus Ownage
      SEO 101 Training Review
      The SEO Mindset Review
      Sterling Reviews (my site)

      + many more close to first spot. I know they are not Commission Blueprint or anything like that. Should I keep plugging away with what I am doing?

        So do you get ANY traffic from that??

        Some wise guy told that you don't sell when YOU are ready to sell, you sell when people are ready to buy.

        So focus on targeted buyer keywords is the first rule.

        Then you maybe try to get your feet wet in a NON IM niche as people tend to buy from someone who actually makes money online, and not just recommends a product which supposedly makes money for who buy's it (can't judge the product you recommend, haven't got it).

        There are a bunch of products in Clickbank outside of the IM niche. Guess 90% of all IM buyers are anyhow at the Warrior Forum today :-)

        Generally, buyers for any kind of hardware are easier to convince that you are the guy to go.

        And as Alexa mentioned, it's about building trust first.

          I am getting traffic but I think the 40 or 50 visits a day isn't going to amount to much. I may steer away from the IM products. It just seems like they are the big sellers.

            40/50 A DAY?? Are you serious man, you get about 1k visitors to your sites a month?

            Get a 30 day free trial of constant contact autoresponder

            Get a cheap but good PLR article serious to make a free PDF giveaway report for a signup. Put up a Optin Box at your sites, all offering the same funnel.

            Make a Free ecover at myecovermaker.com

            Then there is a Autoresponder serious circulating in my inbox with 180 Clickbank AR emails, for free. Try to find this over Google and get it, customize it and let the folks run over that funnel.

            If NOTHING works, get rid of the funnel and the free trial at CC and think over your strategy and if you will stick to the IM niche.

            Never give up too early, principally if you already have traffic.

            You also could become a WSO seller, many good products for cheap.

              Thanks for the advice bwh1. I will use this information to improve my Review site. I am having trouble with my Pro Review theme. The support is 0! I had an opt in box, adsense ads and other widgets on my home page but they have disappeared. Some of my pics aren't working either.

              I guess there is no smooth road in the IM world. There always seem to be a bump. I'm going to keep fighting it out and solve any problem I should encounter.

                That's the attitude! you'll make it! Capturing you're visitor's e-mail seems really really important ESPECIALLY in the IMing niche. Most people have money to shell out on online marketing products, so if you blast them a little bit with good IM products, while keeping on building your list, it can and will only go forward from there, and the money will roll in.

                I just found the link where you can get the CB message set

                easy-ebook-money.com/cbm_safeswap.html

                Just put the http://www in front of that. This is NOT a affiliate link, I got rid of the affiliate code, I got this from another marketer today.

                Wish you good luck

    Any product that you purchase will in one way or another be a form of what you already know. Nobody is really reinventing the wheel. Stick with one technique and tweak it until it works and then scale up.

    Best of luck!

    i think it is not wise to promote IM niche with SEO,
    they more compatible with PPC because usually the momentum reach its peak within day its launch, but suddenly decreased then fade away. A lot of big marketer already dominate this niche.

    SEO is more suitable with non-IM niche as they need time to reach its peak gravity, but more steady. So you can have a lot of time to prepare your blog and optimize it.

    Sory for my english but it's very difficult to explain this since my english is not that good.

      That's actually a very good point and you should try to get on JVnotifypro or something similar to stay ahead of the launches.

      Most products in the IM niche are loosing momentum after a few month, where some membership programs or few software's like the best spinner are more evergreens worth to promote.

      Here again, your list plays a important role in promoting new launches as you get immediate exposure of your review.

      P.S. Ryan told me that he got his FIRST CB sale today. Congrats as I remember my first sale, a very important part of the game.
