Oops... I Just Remembered I Suck At Internet Marketing After 6 Years...
With my product, there's really only one main competitor and he's been making a full time living in this niche for years. My product is an eBook and bonus eBooks, I really need to work on the presentation there. I own all of the competitor's products and I know my information is much higher quality, more informed and effective. But it's a little boring-looking at the moment.
I'm not new to Internet Marketing... I first found out about it 6 years ago and started then. I think I'm doing well for a short while, then my sales and conversions drop even though I'm doing the same thing. It's all inconsistent and the money is nothing to write home about. I want to get serious about this and put 200% into what works.
At first my salesletter converted at nearly 2%, now it's currently a little under 1%. I have a small mailing list I've been building up (squeeze page converts low, I send my list high quality articles and ask them questions then pitch my product -- no sales yet). I have a small Facebook page about the niche with 50 targeted followers so far... I concentrate on paid traffic (e.g. PPC) which I have a few tricks and am okay at, although I still need much more traffic.
With this in mind, where do I turn? How do I turn my *average* product, marketing and traffic into *mindblowing*?
What sort of website do I set up? Authority/Blog? Long sales copy (which I have, but low converting)? Squeeze page (also have, low converting)? Who are the product creation gurus that I can follow?
I'm just sort of stuck here. It's the first time that I've felt like I don't know where I'm going. I'm usually super persistent (and still am) but I think I need some major help. I want to put everything I've got into this.
That being said, two things I've learnt over the years that I do not like are backlinking and writing 100s of articles. I've not had great luck with those and have got far more out of paid traffic and other traffic methods...
Sorry for the long post and THANK YOU for any advice and tips! Also thank you for your patience with me, I was hesitant to post this.
