Hey Fellow warriors

I recently ventures in male herbal enhancement products niche. Would like to know where would be best to promote the product.

I built a website for the product... and also for affiliates and resellers.

There are few thoughts that have crossed my mind.

* CPA networks - Great way to get leads and potential customers. But what networks one are good for this kind of product ?? Searched a little bit and found some networks that deal in that sort of niche but the names are unknown to me and the sites don't look reliable.

* PPC - Google, Yahoo, bing, PoF ?! I thinks that PoF would be ideal for the market, but don't exactly know anything about PPC... Is it good etc.

* Forum marketing - Would hire someone to post relevant comments to promote the product.. That would also help with backlinks to the site. But due to recent google changes will the backlinks work... Any thoughts?

* Affiliate marketing - I know places where to find affiliates for other niches, but is there a place where affiliates who promote in this niche gather ? What % would be good to offer... Im thinking around 30-40% (product sales price around $15).

* Resellers - Good way to sell a business is trough Businessesforsale and other similar sites.. But there is a lot of people who don't go online to find products. How to approach them (smaller sex shops..) Will I send a email.. or call them...

* SEO - is really tough in the niche so promoting a product trough that would be pointless.

....

There also is Email marketing, but the product brand is unknown to many and i suspect that it would not bring much results or sales.

Hoping to get good feedback from you

Thanks in advance

    Hi Tonis. Affiliate marketing would certainly help you increase your sales. However at such a low price point of $15 it is unlikely many affiliates will promote at 30-40%. I think you would be better off between 50-70% to attract more affiliates. Obviously the higher the commission, the more likely it is you will attract affiliates.

    Also, don't be afraid to contact people in your niche to sell your product, don't expect them to be actively looking for you.

      Yeah i have thought about increasing the % but there is not much room to increase... postage fees.. marketing fees... etc.. Got to make some profit also. There are other similar products that are offering max 50% of commission.

      Yeah i have thought contacting Blog owners directly and offering them the products... BUt as far as offline sales would go, then i don't know where to start.
