Prove to me that paid traffic for info products will work

You might want to try the search button because this question gets asked a lot, in many different forms, throughout the years.

I suppose there are a lot of variables that come into play here but I will say one thing...

If you have the information that solves a problem for many people and you drive people to a page promoting a digital product containing said solution then ppc will certainly be a very quick and highly profitable traffic generation method.

How about you prove it to yourself?

Well if you don't believe paid traffic works you really should change professions right now. I'm not sure how you plan on selling much of anything without using some form of paid traffic.

It's not up to anyone to prove it to you. Paid traffic works. Otherwise there would be no ads on the Internet because no one would be willing to pay money for them. So there's all the proof you need right there.

Now go do it.

I am surprised more Fellow Warriors haven't jumped on this thread...

You have seven posts and you come on here making demands that someone show you something.

If I did tell you a story about making money with paid ads you wouldn't know how to replicate my success no more than if I told you stories about how I buy real estate and make money.

No one here owes you anything. I suggest using some manners, respect others and you may get some direction and help.

you need not have the numbers. many got successful because they tried it, need not hesitate, that will pull you out of your success.go for it.

So, let me see if I understand you correctly.

You want me to pay for my advertising, tests, compile the results and then just give them to you because you posted at the warrior forum.

No, I don't think I will. But, thanks for asking

Of course paid advertising works! Why else would it exist and why would there be repeat buyers? It's all about proper targeting to the people who need your info product.

Those kind of statistics don't help you personally whatsoever as you do not have my products for sale, my funnel, or my optimization... so what's the point of stating them?

Paid traffic works. It can allow your campaigns to become very profitable very quickly

Paid traffic can be turned on and off at the drop of a hat too which is a good thing.

Its not what you asked but how you asked it...

Here is some clarification to help you. If someone else's success stories motivates you to do something... your a sheep about to be fleeced on this forum.

16 Year Old Kid... Makes $357,596 in 48 Hrs using Paid Traffic!

If someone were to be kind enough to do all the work to obtain the research and share it with you it doesn't mean you can replicate their success. If I were to give you a flow chart of how they got this success... you still wouldn't be able to replicate it.

The success they achieved was in the details. The path they took to get their and what specifically they did along the way was a culmination of their success. It is a high probability you will have different results. So, sharing the details while it may sound good to the ears and it very possibly could motivate you chances are you will not obtain their level of success without the details.

Headline: Attorney wins a $500 million Dollar Lawsuit Against Large Corporation
That should motivate you to be an Attorney... correct? But, the attorneys who win at this level spent lots of years honing his craft to get to this point. He could give you his flow chart of how he did it... wouldn't be of any help to you. You don't know a brief from a Rule 23 motion.

You come here and file a quasi Motion for a Writ of Mandamus. i.e. You think you can write a thread and compel others to give you something their required to by some law. We are not compelled to give you... Nothing. Motion Denied.

The question you asked is the wrong question. Try this:
Could someone please share with me the best place to learn how to build a sales funnel where I would find success using paid traffic. I am new and need some help. Thanks Bunches

I am willing to bet you would get a whole different response. We really do love to help...

I hope this was helpful to you. Good Luck.

draede & agmccall perfect answers. I know what you are trying to do is get a conversation going. But the title doesn't work.

I agree if you have a product or service - prove it to yourself like many of us have. I have literally spent tens of thousands of dollars on paid traffic sources. Some worked some didn't - but that doesn't mean it might not work for someone else in their niche or vertical.

One company I supported with their marketing efforts I literally spent about 10 - 15k per month on paid sources etc. for about 18 months. That company now just received an offer to be acquired for 10M. Was it worth it? - you betcha

Prove it to yourself..you can start a paid advertising campaign (ppc) for pennies. Set a small budget and test...if you can't prove it to yourself then stats from other people will be totally useless.

100% agreed with BigGameHunder.

Still if you are looking for such information then serach using the keywords "case study PPC" and you will find lots of such information that might help you. But remember PPC is a game that you can leanr only through ur own experience

Even if I were to show you proof, your results would be different.

I havent had much direct luck with it -- promoting my software.

but i havent tried it much

Can someone recommend a source of paid traffic?

Paid traffic can have so many variables. Conduct tests. Start small. Scale up where applicable. Persevere.

Good luck!

Jean's advice is a very accurate description of what a lot of people do successfully. Build a list off of the clicks you are buying.

There are so many variables involved that I feel that the statistics will be useless as everyone's offer, ad copy and website will be different. As some Warriors have mention here, the key is to test it small and tweak the campaign along the way till it is profitable. It must be profitable or else no one will be paying for traffic if it is not profitable for them. The key is still in testing, tracking and tweaking the campaign.
