1 Month: 463 visitors, 66 signup, 13 sales! Is that good?

9 years ago

If you're saying you made 1 youtube video, had no idea what you're doing, and generated 13 sales, then yes, thats good.

I would also say its a good time to start promoting that video.

=]

ps. Just want to make sure but you're promoting the same software you made the video with? Talk about taking action lol.

Thanks

RedShifted,

Yes. I promote the software I use to create the video itself.

I guess I made a stupid thing here... where people tend to get the software,
rather then hire me to create their video with that software. LOL.

At this stage, I've made 3 videos in the month. All have link to my affiliate page.
Today I see the total views on all 3 are about 500 views.
And I never do anything else, except checking the views every couple days.

At least I got my money back to pay the software.

Thanks for comment.

Thanks

Hey man nothing is stupid about making money. =]
Especially like this.

I've made so many videos with good video software but never once considered promoting the software itself. Not sure why, but it never crossed my mind. Same thing with the audio software I use. Its expensive software, I'm an expert at using it, but never once became an affiliate for the software (just starting to realize how ignorant I am).

I've also been doing well selling videos to small businesses, so I honestly like what you did here. You can sell videos, promote video software, use videos to promote other software, use video to sell your own products. There are so many ways to make money with video. Which is why I love it!

Well, I was thinking that I could make more with my service.
Already created 2 videos with the software for 3 minutes or less.
Got paid around $250 in just a week.

That's where I think affiliate should not be my goal.
But, now... considering doing nothing then upload a simple video to YouTube
and make money with it... is giving me a new horizon.

Thanks.

Wow that's a great result, considering the sales were "accidental".

Are you capturing the emails of the people making the purchase or sending them straight into your affiliated partners sales funnel?

I think it's pretty good for only one video by any standards. Now scale it up and upload 10 more videos. If it's a simple task, get somebody else to do it for you.

Thats outstanding for just 1 video without any promotions.

Now Imagine uploading 5 videos everyday and just promoting them a bit so they rank in google aswell and you can earn more than enough for a full time living!

OMG! That is awesome, hardly anywork for recurring money.

You are onto a winner there,

WHy are you not outsourcing and adding more videos to more directories and doing 1 video a day SEO'ed and even more review videos. You would be making probably 20 sales a day, with the right outsourcer.

Go hard. Once you find something that works like this just upscale and outsource.

No it's not good because you haven't any idea why it's working. So you haven't gained any experience or knowledge to apply to anything else with which to grow. And if this stops working you won't know what to do and how to fix it.

They all went straight away to the software-developer page. I don't even know who buy it and make me commission from. Just a number and nice cash on my PayPal.

It's a video presentation software where I can render my own drawing into a speed drawing whiteboard animation video (which I think is a trend now in video marketing).
Search youtube with "whiteboard animation software" and you might find my video.

That's what I want to point about. So, I wonder if the software itself is having that magic keys. As I don't even understand how to put the SEO or keyword tactic on the video.

I also wonder if I could find other great product like this, that comes new-brand and has good demand in the market trend, to get in just like the previous one.

That would be wonderful!

Thanks.

Anything dealing with whiteboard animation is a currently popular trend.
Traffic is being automatically driven to your videos because of the keyword "whiteboard animation".
The viewers are interested in what the software can do in terms of whiteboard animation therefore they are compelled to buy the software

IMHO, no it isn't good. You have neither a sustainable business or an income - unless you know how to repeat it. What I mean is, if it disappears for some reason, any reason, what will you do? Unless you know and understand how the elements and components work, now can you relt on this strategy?

Again, and only IMHO, it appears that perhaps you got lucky - what do you think?

Now, IF you CAN and DO repeat this and get the same (or better) results... that's a different thing entirely, and well done.

On the one hand you're not sure why it's working, but that's okay because you'll learn soon enough as you're no doubt motivated to continue.

On the other hand, you've discovered a simple model that works (sell by demonstration).

If it works for one type of software, do it for another software and more vids for the software you started with.

If you're serious with this, I'd create a website you own for a longer-term asset. You don't own YouTube. You seem to be in the video marketing niche which could be a big site on its own.

WOW...!!
I really appreciate you guys who respond my thread after a year passed by.

Yes. I've learnt a lot since.
Now, I know about list-building, advertising my aff-link, create back-linking, etc. And still I am learning more & more here.

Just want to update... that the video I've created still on my youtube.
It's getting slower on view as it's 1 years old (more) already.
But... it still sent me commission about $400-$500/monthly consistently.
And... I never do anything since the first time I upload it.
Also I don't change anything on it until now.

Agreed. That's why I got my passion to stay on this forum and learn a lot, especially on traffic (getting visitors).

Appreciate your advice.
However at this moment I just kind like fall in love with youtube.

I want to go deeper with it.

Like another poster pointed out, you really have no idea how it's working.......but that doesn't mean you can't find out. Test the waters a bit by creating more videos. Try other software affiliates and see what happens.
